5 Pictures Taken By The Shutter Cruncher That Caught My Eye

-
Earlier this month, Neil, a close friend of mine launched his photoblog. Today,  I'll give you a taste of what you can view at www.theshuttercruncher.com by showing grabs of 5 of my favorite posted there. Just a warning, I may have not cropped my grabs correctly so it's best that you visit the site to see them.

1. Fulfillment (2014)


I just always see it in movies but seeing it through Neil's lens add a layer of reality without removing the magic of the place.


2. Paseo (2015)


I was a witness of the quick risk to take this. Neil just recently bought his ultrawide lens and I was really excited for how this will turn out! The picture captures an intersection of commerce and culture, including towers that represent the elite.


3. Pista (2015)


This was taken during this year's Chinese New Year celebration in Binondo. We were both there but were not able to meet. I love the detail in this picture.


4. Katedral (2015)


I recently attended a wedding at the Manila Cathedral but I wasn't able to see it this way then. This captures the splendor of arguably the most enduring symbol of the Catholic faith in the country.


5. Morning (2015)


As much as it features wonderful pictures, the blog shows the personal side of Neil. This is Neil's gwapo beagle, Potchi.

These are just a few of the many awesome photos of The Shutter Cruncher. Head to The Shutter Cruncher to see more!

Before a single note is played, there is already a journey waiting to unfold, one that moves not through space, but through centuries of sound. On January 21, the Far Eastern University Center for the Arts opens the doors of the FEU Auditorium to that journey with Tones Through Time: A Musical Odyssey , a free admission informational piano concert led by internationally acclaimed pianist and educator Dr. Raffi Kasparian . This is not simply a recital. It is an invitation to listen with context, to hear how Western music grew, shifted, and responded to the world across generations. Through carefully chosen works and thoughtful narration, the concert traces the evolution of musical language from the Baroque period to the 20th century, guiding audiences through Classical balance, Romantic emotion, Impressionistic color, and modern experimentation. The result is an experience designed not only to be heard, but understood. Listening as Learning Tones Through Time: A Musical Odyssey is buil...
