Congratulation to Luis Martin Harder one of my students from the Cambodian GDPhotoWorkshop last year…he really went out his way and show cased his very first Exhibition on the 13th of May in Manila.
Since Cambodia he has done real well, more than 30 images from Cambodia and the Philippines are on display, very impressive work I might add and I am very proud of him.

A good and mixed crowed attended the opening night at the One Workshop Gallery including other familiar faces like good old Bebet Gaudinez (I am just waiting to see
his Exhibition) and Jasmine Manabat who also attended my PhotoWorkshop last year,
almost like a “little reunion”.

Photographers like Wig Tysman, Tilak Hettig, George Tapan and many other personalities including Henry Bateman Artist/Writer showed up to give Luis the credit he deserves, of course the host Photographer Master printer and Artist Ross Capilli and his wife made sure everybody had enough to drink and eat.
Thanks Ross.

Congratulations again to Luis Harder for a great show and super cool images…
You might remember from one of my earlier blogs…he was the one who received the
Aperture software, (which was sponsored by the Power Mac Center in Makati) during our Cambodian GDPhotoWorkshop, see the image below in case you have forgotten.
Thanks for inviting me and being part of your show, keep up the good work Luis.

F1 GRAND PRIX & Formula BMW Racing CALENDAR for 2008...including the very first F1 Race in Singapore at NIGHT...a challenge for Nikon v. Canon in low light conditions.

This could also be a challenging event for Nikon v. Canon hence the NEW Nikon D3 & D300 with their incredible new sensor especially in low light conditions.
Let see who is the winner on this track...
But did you know that
Aperture 2 or now 2.1 is going to be in China at the Olympic Games in full force, not me this time, but many Pro's going to be there using Apple Aperture 2 software...a lot more on this later.
