We went to Corregidor with fellow Zone V Camera Club members last April for an out of town shoot. Strangely enough after reviewing the photos i liked, there were similarities between them. I noticed that most of them have a dead tree in the composition.

Well amidst the eerie atmosphere on the island, you can still apreaciate it's beauty. this is my first set of photos. i'll try to dig up some more. All photos are shot with a Canon 20D.


(sunset by the hotel restaurant. dawnsky has a better shot of the birds :) )


(a dead tree by the barracks)


(framed through another set of ruins)


(it's very interesting how we made this shot. we used a technique called "light painting" wherein you shine flashlights onto the building and hold your shutter open for about 30 seconds or so. it was pitch black so we all had to bunch together. it was a fun experience though, since it was a rare occasion when the whole club would shoot as a group.)


(you can actually see the moon, barely hehe)


(i used a very special type of lens to get the misty effect. hehe a foggy one. it was very early in the morning and it was so cold. my lens started to fog up once i took it out of the bag. i just took advantage of it and continued to shoot anyway hehe)

so far, all i see is death. i'd better post another set to show the lighter side of Corregidor. :)
