Nice photo. The emotions are really there.
ang ganda!! i loveeee it! kitang kita mo ang emotion ng babae.. at clear na clear ang pic.. parang kinunan sa studio!!!.. kudos! ^_^
Ganda ng pagkakakuha ah!
Astig!
Malamang may mag pirate nyan!
wow! two thumbs up!
will you just take a picture? or offer them a food? just asking.. hehehe
galing naman! =)
i took the picture. my friend took care of the food. funny thing, bajao people won’t eat pork , chicken and beef. they asked for fish. hehehee. Actually, it’s money they were asking. we gave food instead.
Nice! Galing ng pagkakuha… emo emo emo. hehe
ok yung photo pagka kuha, very pro! anyway, sa mga taong ganyan, food na lng ibigay mo hindi pera, pero kung bigyan mo naman, ayun parang buong batallion ng puro ganyan naman ang lalapit sa yo, kakatakot, kaya wag na lng… (i had a bad experience kasi sa kanila… eeww!)
You captured the emotion - that made it appealing. The subject is only secondary. Magaling. ;p
Bonjour! Selam!
Bravo! Ang galing-galing mo kung sino ka mang nilalang na kumuha ng letratong yan!!! Talagang pinagpala ka ng talento sa pagkuha ng mga larawan… Ano pa ba ang aking masasabi… Hmmm… Ipagpatuloy mo pa ang iyong ginagawa at nawa’y malayo pa ang mararating mo sa buhay… ^o~
Hoscakal!!!
e x c e l l e n t e !
nice… remember ko pa nung tinanong ko kung san sila galing, at bakit sila nanlimos: galing Zamboanga, pumunta ng Davao, nanlimos upang may pamasahe pauwi Zambaonga.
I was a bit pissed off, really, with the reasoning and the situation she and her family had to undergo apparently because of sheer ignorance, but in the spirit of Christmas, to help not was not an option.ΓΌ
Good capture.
