Finding Subjects

A friend and a colleague from work gave me a camera before she left the school for good. It was an older version of a high end camera of which I have no experience of using. So I walked around the garden and made use of this gift for practise.

I imagined having my subjects talk to me while I lovingly took their photos. They are my living companions and their beauty is what surrounds me everyday.


"I will shelter you from the sun. I will protect you from the rain."

"I maybe brown now but my beauty never fades in the eyes of my friends."

"Tiny we might be but when we are together, we become one big tree."

"I grow best when I am in the comfort of loving hands."

"Even with the wind and storm, we will still shine together."

"My heart goes to you as I shed my tears for your sorrows."

"There is always a beginning. Slowly but surely, you can make it."

"I maybe a dead leaf now, but remember that I once gave nourishment to a growing tree."

Thank you so much Sylvie for this wonderful addition to my blogging world.

wow, shot like a pro :))

one thing na natutunan ko din about the basic ng photography is yung rule of thirds.

Dalawa na for the last pic, dalawa na rin for the seventh one. Thanks Eagleman sa iyong paglipad dito at kay Rix at walang halong katol ang comment ngayon. Kulang sa hithit!

@ fiel- mangmang lang naman sa photography, ano ang rule of thirds at tinatamad akong mag google search.

Ayaw mo nun kamilkshake, habang naglalakad ka, may kumakausap sa iyo, ha,ha,ha. Hindi na siya a walk at the park, kung hindi a talk in the park! Corney!

Thank you Ric, still have to learn a lot about settings.

Hello Lalah,

Active ba ulit sa blogging, good to see you here! Tagal mong nawala. Go back and take photographs and maybe next time we will all share one passion in photography, daming bloggers mahilig mag take ng photos. We can all do nature trek.

if you'll choose anything from nature as subject, you'll never fail
Rix said…

Hi! I am LiLi! said…
Lovely photos.

More pa ha. I love looking at photos. :)
Blakrabit said…
Nice photos. What's the white flower called? And the one the looks like a bunch of tiny green mangoes?
jonathan said…
Hi Senyor,

I think it is true. Nature itself is already beautiful.

Hi Rix,

Sanay na nga kaming kengkoy ka. Hibernate mode ba? Pareho lang tayo.
jonathan said…
Hi Lilli,

Will try but for now I am filled with school related work. :(

Hello Blakrabit,

I looked for the mango looking flowers' name but with no success. The white one is an anturium family plant. Long time no posting eh!

Aaaw sweet naman ni friend nag-iiwan ng camera!

Fourth pic is my fave - something unique sya :)
jonathan said…
Hi Ms. Balut,

As friend, mabait talaga yun pero as a colleague at work, parang ako, napaka professional. Minsan nagaaway kami, ha,ha,ha. Best buddy ko yan sa work, straight to the point magsalita at very calm everyday. Thanks for liking!
