Nostalgia Bombs

Black and white and sepia colored photos. Photos that are in these color mode makes you feel like you are looking at an old photo depicting the past or of what use to be. However, with the advancement of technology most cameras have this color mode.

I have been in love with taking photos and these color modes are perfect if you are trying to take photos and trying to incorporate a story into the photo. It also gives an effect that the photo has been taken ages ago.


I got into the black and white or sepia modes when I was sad about something. Thus these following photos were the outcome.


Let us start, Sepia toning is a specialized treatment to give a black-and-white photographic print a warmer tone and to enhance its archival qualities from Wikipedia.

I call this one my treasure box

And this one is called Stashed Away

These photos were taken at a time that I was single and basically, I was feeling sad as a relationship I cared for just disappeared without a trace. The items in the box are things I kept from two guys I have loved. The photos were taken 2007.

On to the black and white photos:

This one I call Pillars

Stairs

Location was at a memorial park in Manila, the place was perfect for Gothic Shoot ^_^

At that time, I was feeling alone even though I was with a group. I was feeling that something was missing. Black and white photos circa 2010

What do you think? Do you feel what I felt in the photos?

Photo Memoirs: At the end of the day

I have always wanted to keep a scrap book of my memories. However, it is too much work. So, I decide to do something simple. So I took photos of things and places that has great significance to me and added stick figures to it (because I cannot draw) show why... plus a short caption

Today, I will be sharing one of them. I call it “At the end of the day”

I love the sunset and I love taking photos of it. I love it more when I have people with me. It is nice to end the day with people you love. The photo you see was taken at a local mall that has the sea behind it. Me and my partner hangs around for the sunset especially if the sky is clear. This place we have shared with friends does making it even more special.

For some, sunsets signifies the end of life or darkness. Call me weird but sunset gives way to the moon and it has the same use, it gives us light. At the end of the they there will be someone that will always be waiting for you.
