Victorious So in the Battle of GM’s

Even before the final round started, the current world’s youngest GM was already the sure winner. As promised, here’s the final standings and the gallery of pictures I took during the 11th and final round of the tournament.

It’s a Western Digital My Book Premium Edition 500GB, that used to hold thousands of my pictures ever since I bought my Canon EOS 30D. Add to that the thousands as well of audio, video, programs, and data files. This is the—

Sidenotes in Deuts.NET

While I was cleaning my site for broken links, here are some I learned: This is what zooomr has become. It’s supposed to compete with flickr, but how can it compete when your photos once hosted in them are gone. This is—

The Dangers of Offloading Images

Jonathan Bailey over at the Blog Herald stress out the dangers of uploading your images in photo sharing sites like flickr, webshots, and photobucket. Of the three examples, flickr appears to be the lesser evil huh! I likewise wonder who among us—

The Simple Reasons Why I Love Photography?

Erwin asked me why I’m so fond of photography, what will I do with my photos after I took them?

Let me walk you through the reasons why I love photography. Let me count the grounds why I’m hooked into it.

Venice at the Heart of the Desert

VillagioI guess it’s just time to showcase some of the photos I’ve taken in my photography career…LOL…

Now, who could have thought that Venice exists in the heart of a desert like Doha, Qatar?

This is Villagio, a mall located near Hyatt Plaza and the Khalifa Sports City. The interior design is undoubtedly that of Venice as you can see in the movie Casanova, except of course for the modern business stores surrounding the small river.

The Concert under Review

Went to the concert last Thursday. The performance was fine. No, it was great actually.

There were some problems, though, before the show started. The area was basically an open field, meaning people were coming from different directions.

Come 7:30 pm (the show was about to start at 8 pm), the absence of a queue was apparent.

Let’s see some samples of the pictures I took:

The First Day in Doha

We arrived at the Doha International Airport at 11:20 (Doha time) in the morning of August 31, 2006. The temperature was particularly hot, at around 40 degrees centigrade. We are yet to report to the Ernst & Young Office on Monday, September—

So Many Places

So many places… So many faces, so many races Different voices, different choices Some are mad, while others laugh Some live alone with no better half (excerpt from Kaleidoscope World by Francis M)
