One of my photographs has been used in album art! It is used by Token Folk, a Seattle hip hop group, for their album Stuck In The Trees. You can download the album for free and it comes with the album art. Cool huh?
Brandon Page did a fantastic job with the album art! You’ll find the original photo here.
I made this simple poster. It says…
It is such a silly word. Don’t you think? Heeheehee…
All this rain going on in Seattle (no surprise there) is bringing back some childhood memories. As a kid, my friends and I would make paper boats. Then, we would float them on mud puddles. Mud puddles are hard to come by in the city. But concrete puddles works, too.
What fun activities did you do as kid when it rained?
What happens when two hugs,
two kisses,
and a cherry on top come together?…
You get roses full of kisses!
I’ve made a tradition giving this to friends on Valentine’s Day. Now, I share it with you!
PS1. I learned how to make these in high school in the Horticulture Club 
Er many…years ago. It’s simple enough that you might make it using just the below image. Perhaps for your Valentine?
PS2. Just in case and thanks to this thing called the internet, this great and easy how-to guide from Hershey’s is available!
PS3. Advanced Happy Valentine’s Day/Singles Awareness Day!
With food coloring as the paint, my car as the canvas, and the rain as the brush…
I watched the rain paint…itself.
I dropped some color on the roof of my car…
And got a pretty stained glass effect.
…the rain paint itself.[Music begins...]
Here’s the story of a group named Brady.
When they got together,
they were celebrating New Year’s Eve galore.
They were multicolor.
Set in the year of 2010….The Brady Bunch.
The Brady Bunch.
Humm…hummm…la…la…la…

PS2. Happy Martin Luther King Day!
I hope you had a great holiday! Whatever your traditions or celebrations, I surely hope it was special and full of joy. If you’re curious about mine…
A Filipino Holiday. After going to Misa de Gallo on Christmas Eve, my family celebrates nochebuena, literally ‘good night‘. What does a ‘good night’ include? Lots of delicious Filipino food at midnight! We stuff our bellies–as big as the only old fat-bellied guy who gets away with calling people Ho, Ho, Hos without getting socked in the face. Then, we open presents right after we eat! Really early on Christmas Day for us is the part we call “aguinaldo,” leading me to extrapolate on the title of this post…
My nephew and his new toy.
The best part about Christmas this year...was seeing my nephew’s face light up as he unwrapped a long awaited present, a lightsaber! I made sure the one I got him made the infamous sound effect.
Lightsaber fights light trails. We had a Star Wars style sword fight. I think I’m getting too old for it. So, what did I do to weaken my opponent? Direct him in a series of light trail photos! In the end, he was quite amazed to see what he created!!!
Depending on your camera, you too can create your own light trails! It mainly depends if you can manually set your Shutter speed. Check out this very helpful blog post on light trails: http://digital-photography-school.com/how-to-shoot-light-trails
I made this one when I was out with my mom at a Filipino restaurant. The whole time I was making this, she was simply shaking her head. Good thing I’m an adult and she can’t tell me what to do anymore. Heeeheee.
