the summer soundtrack sessions
Reliving the summer collaboration a bunch of lomographers have done three years past! This was a fun project to put together; and months and months later still looks pretty neat.
Dubai fisheye
On the Big Bus tour, you get to appreciate the eclectic mix of Dubai’s cosmopolitan façade and hints of its traditional Arab roots.
From Burj Khalifa to the Gold souk, a day out on the Big Bus is a must for anyone living in or visiting Dubai.
Gear: Fisheye camera + Fuji Sensia 200, cross-processed
Siquijor
Beyond its infamous association with Philippine horror stories and folkloric monsters, Siquijor is an untouched paradise. The beaches have cool blue-green waters, white sand and best of all, is practically tourist-free. Sometimes you might see a brave sea snake getting too close to shore; and a million little fishes and sea urchins populating the sea floor. You don’t see that in party beaches anywhere else in the Philippines.
I try to go there every summer to catch up with relatives and go to the beach until I get a passable tan. And every time I go, I am secretly relieved that the place has a scary reputation. Less crowds definitely make a better beach experience.

amsterdam, netherlands
amsterdam. where it's common practice to be completely sinful with the red light district and cannabis. but underneath the wildly fun exterior is a very artistic place with the city's architecture and museums, it is really quite special.

biarritz, france
i am getting deep pink and purple tones again from a fujifilm sensia. must be from the weather conditions. biarritz has a close to midnight sunset, not too harsh afternoon sun, perfect for the beach and wave riding. early afternoons has somehow got the purple tone end of the film. must be the shade. all good fun nonetheless.

nyon, switzerland
nyon in switzerland is a small city that is both modern as it is classic. it is also quite awesome. these shots were not to document what's out there right now, but just to capture on film the old charm of the city.

amsterdam + lausanne
film documentation of a recent travel to europe. amsterdam and laussane are both two distinctly different places but also very similar to cultural settings of a more bohemian approach. cities that are being constantly reinvented by its young crowd, their hangouts, shops and music venues, and all their secret spots.
shot with a holga 120n. kodak ektachrome 100. cross processed.

retro skies
my first photo taking in film for this year. i kind of love how it turned out, loaded my yashica gsn with a kodak plus-x pan film that has expired since the seventies. i bet you this film must have been so excited meeting the modern day airplaine commute. i should probably be using more of this combo.

of holga and music festivals
when have you last gone to a seriously cool music festival?
where people only associate with the music and the artists, and the
free-love culture was widespread among everyone in attendance? for me,
its more like two years ago. but when you document a terrific musical
event with the right camera and the right film, it seems only
yesterday.
