Thoughts and Non Thoughts

From the 80's. Still works despite all the battle scars. The MD Rokkor 45 mm f/2 lens has excellent bokeh. One day I'll find a way to mount this on my Canon 6D. Minolta XG1 with 45mm MD Rokkor lens

There's no place like home. And there's nothing like food to make one feel at home. A few of the food that makes the Philippines more fun! Puto bumbong Bibingka D' Original

The Canon EOS 6D is a fantastic camera. Full frame in a well-built body -- and at a good price, specially when bundled with the 24-105 IS L lens. I was curious how my old 28-135 IS USM lens will fare with a 6D. Wood, light, and shadows (Canon EOS 6D with 28-135 IS USM lens, ISO 12,800, handheld at f5.6 and 1/8s.) The low light handling of the Canon 6D is quite impressive at ISO 12,800. Well, despite showing its age with the old generation IS, the tad slower focusing, and the well-known zoom "creep", it is still a good lens. Somehow it feels at home with a full frame body, perhaps because it was a lens made for film cameras?

Your hips sway Like the languid beat of a Latin guitar. I say your name and you look at me And I sink into the dark pools of your eyes Like being drawn into a moonless sky To chase the light of a distant star. You walk back And your face stops in front of mine. I hear a whisper from your throat Like faint laughter drifting in the wind; You put my hands around your waist And I feel the curves of a Latin guitar. You left that day And I never saw your eyes again. I keep looking for the rhythm that we made My fingers trace the curves and pluck the strings But all I hear are the slow laments The sobbing whispers of a Latin guitar.

It may take some time, but the meaning of dreams eventually reveal themselves. Dreams are conversations with your true and honest self.
