Girl with the pearl earrings
I am giving away this pair of pearl earrings with tiny diamonds for Christmas!

NOT!
I was just kidding!
Actually what I wanted to say was, that 3 days ago I picked up my camera again for some ’serious’ photography and just shoot away. I’ve always wondered how professional photographers manage to capture those perfect jewelry photos we see on magazines. I said to myself, I have a camera but can I achieve at least half of what they produce? According to ate Beng’s latest entry, there’s nothing wrong in being ambitious, and I agree! It is my ambition to become a professional photographer. I just wonder if I have the capacity. I wonder if it isn’t too late for me to learn photography? Take up lessons? Sayang pera.
Anyway this was the result. I took my 12 years old earrings from the box, laid them on top of silver board which I bought for 1Euro, camera flash was off, click on the macro lens, a single table light was on…and well, what do you think?

AZteegRAEL, kapatid…was that so hard? *lol* ayan, fresh na laway ha ha ha!
Naku, paki ba natin kung hindi tayo professionals! I think maiinspired ka ng husto sa kakakuha ng picture ng baby mo, wait til you see them results…trust me, it’ll be more than ‘just’ done by a novice.
hay naku, for me you’re making sense..ganyan din ako mag react when I see good photos, I do not know those photography ‘legal terminologies’..basta i say what I feel
cge prendster na tayo, added u up already…and tnx for the x link, AZteeg! :)
