I want a Raynox Lens
Lens is one of the most essential part of a camera. With my FZ30, it does have a 35-420mm, and it works perfectly fine with me. I can be able to take pictures in my satisfaction. But there's a "but", sometimes, I can't take pictures that are out of range. Pictures that are too far are not so clear anymore. So I thought I'll have to buy a lens for my camera. The FZ30 is not an SLR. The lens is fixed and built in so its really hard for me to find a lens. Good thing is when I googled a lens for my camera, I found the Raynox lens that are specially built for my camera model. I checked their website and it has a macro lens, telephoto and a wide angle lens available for my camera. There's a Singaporean website selling Raynox lenses and I inquired about it. The macro lens is about Sing$100 something or 3,300Php and the telephoto for about Sing$390 or 12,700Php. Both are expensive for me now since I already resigned from my job but I'll have to save money for this lenses. I badly need those lenses specially the telephoto. For now, I can't buy those lenses yet but soon enough, I'm sure I'll be owning those lenses.

Fort San Pedro Cebu
Last night I stumbled upon this blog dedicated to Cebu City named Cebu City Photos. I was checking some of his photos and it was cool. I'm here in Cebu for more than 2 weeks now and I'm still on the process of familiarizing the places here. The blog has been a very big help to me specialy in discovering new and exciting places here in Cebu. I saw one of his post about the Fort San Pedro here in Cebu and I was excited about it. When it comes to historical places here in the Philippines, I'm always go with it. So I decided to go to the place and try to check everything about it. When I got there, I immediately went inside but the problem is theres's a wedding reception being held inside. I went back outside and try to observe the people coming in and out. While waiting outside, I was talking to an old man outside selling key chains and offering paid photographs to the tourists. If I'm not mistaken, his name is Mang Victor. Mang Victor has been working in the area for about 15 years now. Mang Victor told me that it is OK to get inside the Fort. I went inside the Fort and asked the receptionist and she let me in but will have to pay 30Php for the entrance fee. The lower ground has been restricted because of the wedding reception and the only place allowed to the tourists are the upper level. It was really nice inside. I tried thinking the history of the place and realized that life before is very simple. People doesn't have cellphones, camera, laptops, electricity and other basic needs that the new civilization is enjoying. I think I can't live their life. I'm so used to the modern world. I had a great experience inside the Fort San Pedro and will discover more exciting places here in Cebu. Next stop? Taoist Temple!
Creating a collage in Picasa 3
Creating a collage is not too easy for me before. I really had a problem creating a collage. I'm using Picasa that has a built in collage maker but the problem is that I can't figure out how to fix the alignments of the pictures. I was browsing online when I stumbled upon the Funtography blog teaching how to create a collage in Picasa 3. I checked on it and I felt like I'm so dumb because creating a collage in Picasa was too easy that even an elementary student can do it. Good thing I was patient of reading her blog and following the instructions until I was able to create my first collage. I was planning to make the background color as black but I noticed that my Half Moon Shot has a black background. So I decided to change the color into something else and here's the result. I hope you guys like my simple collage. I'll continue creating more of collage and I think creating a collage of the set of photos you have can be an elegant way of showcasing your photos into a single post than putting multiple images in a post.

Magellan's Cross
Mactan Bridge I
I have a friend from Davao who is currently working here in Cebu. We met once because I'd like to show him my new toy and also, to ask some advice from him about the basics of photography. His name is Raymund or others call him Bon, owner of RabPhotography. Raymund is a good friend of mine way back in Davao and he taught me a lot of things when it comes to computer, photography and other stuff. I asked him once if where are the good spots here in Cebu to take pictures, he advised me to try the Mactan Bridge. I went to Mactan Bridge and took some shots of it. The image above has been cropped to remove some unnecessary objects in the picture. This is the Mactan Bridge I and I never thought that Mactan Bridge II is way better than the I. Mactan Bridge II has a park beside it when I cross it on my way to Naval. Well, next time I'll try to go there and take some shot of the Mactan Bridge II.

Hotel Lamp
After we our visit to Divisoria, me and my cousin went to the hotel where she and her mom is checked in. I still have a shift that night so I decided to just take a nap at the hotel. I don't have any problems with the clothes because I bought a shirt from Divisoria because I wasn't really planning to go home that day. Inside the hotel room was this lamp. The lamp was so simple but illegant. I don't really know how to take a picture of it until I come up of an idea of taking just the hole of the lamp. I liked the result and I was happy with it. My friends can't really figure out where I took this image. I hope ya'll like this simple shot by me.

Why Maniniyot? What is Maniniyot?
I was asked by one of my friend if why did I use the word Maniniyot as a blog title. I told her that I don't see any problem in using the word Maniniyot as a blog title. To those who doesn't know what Maniniyot means is, its the Bisaya word for Photographer. Bisaya is one of the widely used dialect in the Philippines. I know it sounds funny and sounds obscene but I think that's just the way it is. I like the word itself. At first you wouldn't think that its a PhotoBlog and I like my blog to be that way. I hope that you will continue patronizing my blog and please, provide some feedbacks so that I will know what are my weaknesses and my assets. Thank you for the visit and I hope you come back soon. If you want to exchange links with me, just send me an email thru my contact form and I will reply to you as soon as possible.
