Fanart and Tribute: Chiyoko Fujiwara from Millennium Actress, story written and directed by Satoshi Kon Description: August 25, 2010. A Fanart and Tribute for Satoshi Kon. She is Chiyoko Fujiwara, one of the main characters from Millenium Actress. I love this film especially the story's twist. Satoshi Kon died last August 24, 2010 b'coz of Pancreatic Cancer. The sad part is his death came less than two months before his 47th birthday... Still too young... Thank you for the inspiration, goodbye, and rest in peace Kon Satoshi... インスピレーションは、別れの場合に感謝し、平和コン聡の残り... Tools: 15 minutes sketching, 2 hours in Adobe Photoshop CS3, 1 hour crying for Satoshi Kon ** Comments and Critiques are most welcome! **

January 23, 2011. Together with other three Canon 1000D users, we did the photowalk at Nuvali Sta. Rosa to take a shot of the sunset. The photos are also available in Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/abbytorrendon/ and https://www.flickr.com/groups/canonviewfinderclub/pool/

While waiting for the sunset, we found this very cute dragonfly. Can't resist to take a shot.

While waiting for the sunset, we found this very cute flower. Can't resist to take a shot.

While exploring the place, I took a shot of the rocks at the man-made lakeside.

While exploring the place, I saw some big reed grass at the man-made lakeside and took a shot. I took like 5 - 10 shots b'coz it's windy and I'm against the light... >_<

While waiting for the sunset, we found this poor dead tree. I found the tree very disturbing since the place's motto is "to coexist with humans and nature", but the tree was, oh well. But even thought I find it disturbing, I can't resist to take a shot in Monochrome.

Too bad the sunset didn't came the way we wanted to, so we did some Nighttime shots instead. I really love the reflection of the light at the water. I got the feeling I'll be back at Nuvali by next week (hopefully).
