Photography Idols: Christine Day Lorico

Today I feature Christine Day Lorico. A name that instantly comes to my head when I want to browse beautiful portraits and editorials. I've been following her photos for I guess a year  or more now after I saw her in DeviantArt. She's really good with ambient light and post processing plus I like her treatment on the photos. She makes simple and gorgeous photos, not to mention that she has a good model friends and connections to various modeling agencies so you can expect beautiful sets from her regularly.

Foster The People in Manila

Foster the People came to the Philippines last Saturday and I was there together with Petite and a lot of 'hipsters'. :) We weren't able to catch Techyromantics as the opening act though. Too bad but we were not disappointed with the performance of Foster the People. It was a short concert but it was a good one and I'm sure the lively audience would agree! To think I was only listening to them about a year ago in my playlists and then there I was watching their concert!

Photos from the concert taken with Petite's Canon S95.

I was trying the total out-of-focus shots but the camera can't create good bokeh, you'll know when you see them. I also noticed in this concert, there weren't that many iPad owners compared to the last concert I went to and that is a good thing!

Sesame Street Playlist 4

Pardon my absence on this blog but I come bearing gifts (141 gifts to be exact). I'm sharing my latest Sesame Street Playlist. Songs that I heared from surfing the web, the indie song gods, suggestions from friends, and of course from the good ol' radio. As usual, this playlist includes indie tracks with some electronica, pop, an old cover, rock, definitely some Smashing Pumpkin tracks and then some. I'm hoping to add OPM (Original Pinoy Music) songs in the future. OPM indie is really hard to find (or I just don't know where to look) and I'm hoping that someone points me to where I could start. Thank you in advance!

WARNING: Listening to this playlist may induce mood swings. :)

This playlist's special mentions:
random cover featuring Nicolai, from A Workshop, and her dog.

Enjoy :)
