HAPPY EARTH DAY, LOVES ;-)

Was listening to NU 107 a while ago. They were discussing about a field that is very close to my heart, which is *tada!* PHOTOGRAPHY.

There were 4 lensmen interviewed, and 2BU's Tammy David was one of them, so was Rem Zamora. Cool. :)

Some noteable points that I recall now from the conversation:
1) Photographers are the best historians. 
2) Its great to be a part of history, but a photog must remember that there's a responsibility attached to it.
3) Tammy David's mentor is the Filipino Pulitzer Prize for Photography nominee -- Romy "Tata Romy" Gacad (my *gasp-ehem* mom's ex-boyfriend).
4) One quality of a good photograph is if in just one glance, one can already draw out a story.
5) Photojournalism in news must be truthful; it may be entirely different (and it can be allowable) in advertising.

Yun. Just to add to that: as what my daddy-oh (who is the best photojournalist in the world!!! -- Anyone who will oppose to that will be banned in this blog for eternity! Hehe!) always says in his lectures, a good photograph is so when the viewer feels the same emotion that the photographer felt when he took the shot from his camera's lens.

Yey... go speak of photography and spread the inspiration it may bring forth. My grandfather (who is also a professional practitioner and professor of photography) and dad would be very glad of that. ;-)
