Project 365: June 2014

It’s already 2015 and I haven’t posted images for Project 365 from July 31-December 31 and on top of that I haven’t blogged June to December yet! This was my mindset coming into 2015 and as promised I’ll complete project 365 and so here I am continuing to blog about it although super late already 😛

As I remember I was constantly evaluating light-wherever I go actually but I find myself still hesitant to pull out the camera to shoot at times. Despite all of this I still went on about and shot a few images that are outside my comfort zone.

Usually I just shoot at home and indoors, I rarely shoot outdoors – especially in the streets. 

Day 152 – The oldest nephew
Day 153 – This city(Pasig)
Day 154 – Bakery donuts(PAN de MANILA)
Day 155 – F. Ortigas Jr. Road
Day 156 – Figuring things out
Day 157 – Self portrait
Day 158 – Hitting the books again
Day 159 – From the dark side
Day 160 – Thor

One of those scenarios where I went out of my comfort zone was going out into the streets in the evening. It really is a challenge but I got a few shots down in spite of the under exposed images I still have a few decent shots(days 153, 155, 161, 167, and 168). 

Day 161 – Waiting for a ride
Day 162 – Our Independence
Day 163 – On a day like this
Day 165 – Acoustic performance
Day 166 – Poor bird
Day 167 – On a stand still
Day 168 – Towards the light
Day 169 – Evaluation
Day 170 –  Kurt Wagner

I was fortunate enough to get to shoot in a few events like the Independence day celebration in a mall(Day 162), live performance of a band(Day 165) and Toycon(Day 172).  Even if I only had a few (paying) gigs that month I still didn’t give in to laziness and kept at it. 

Day 171 – The big blue sky
Day 172 – Facing them
Day 173 – Old jeans
Day 174 – Simplifying
Day 175 – Is that smog?
Day 176 – Decorated ceilings
Day 177 –  Having a break
Day 178 – Father daughter moments
Day 179(2014) - Day break
Day 179 – Day break

As the end of the month approaches, I just kept at it.  There was a point in the year where I was already thinking of what the image would look like.  While I shot the last of the images of June, I had no thought of post processing images in black and white. When I was about to post process days 178,179, 180 and 181 ended up black and white because of the black and white challenge.  
Day 180 – Relentless
Day 181 – Dried fish

As I complete the 6th month of 2014, I still have some apprehensions and hesitations but if I let them take a hold of me, none of the shots that I have now will be possible.  Just don’t let it matter and just keep clicking.
