Pearl ..... 30 Years After


I am not so fond of covering events and would rather focus on portraiture, landscapes

and travel photography. But how can I miss this once in a lifetime chance to capture

people's emotions as we reconnect with each other after 30 long years, reminiscing the past,

treasuring the long lost friendships. While we have grown older or shall I say matured

and now live in different worlds, the same youthful spirit during the high school days

was still there. It was certainly a heart-warming experience for me.

I hope that through these images the memories of this momentous event

will last for a long, long time.

Alec, I am touched. You are God-sent. Every emotion is captured in these pictures. Now I know why you are a man of few words, because your work does the talking.

Ruby.. how your you? saw your pics as well as Edna Fe, Rey Agaaloos during the Nov 4 reunion.. you're all looking great and healthy...yon nga lang buhok mo naiiba tila nawala yong curly front bangs mo....but anyway bagay yang hairstyle...kaso si Bong Nisperos hindi nagpakita kung ano na itsura nya kung gumuwapo ba o tumaba o pumuti.. Bong magpost ka ng pics mo pero siguraduhin mong me sufficient lights ha para sharp ang kuha...hehehe

A warm hello to you Dawn. Let us know your schedule this December. Let's see if we can get a critical mass for a Christmas party. Everyone's looking forward to seeing you.

Mary Dawn Abrogar-Dacanay 07-Nov-2007 12:03
Great pictures! You are all looking good, :) Let us please have another get-together as I can't make it, too, on the 17th. It is good to finally touch base with old friends. Thanks Onnie for the info on this website. I hope to see you, all of you soon!!! Cheers! :)

Bong, you made me laugh with your comments on the individual pics. The old humor is still there. Next time, help me think of interesting titles for the images.

Alec

Great pictures and great subjects too! You're truly gifted, Alec. I've seen some of your work even before the Pearl Reunion and I'm impressed. Have you had a One-Man Show yet?

EDNA MIRANDA LAPID

EACH SHOT IS A WORK OF ART, ESPECIALLY THE "GROUP HUG 1". GREAT COMPOSITION AND YOU'VE CAPTURED THE THRILL OF REUNITING....30 YEARS LATER. I CAN FEEL THE LIFE IN EACH PICTURE. KUDOS TO YOU FOR YOUR GREAT ACHIEVEMENT IN PHOTOGRAPHY. IT INDEED REFLECTED THE WORK OF A GOOD ARTIST.
alecnorman06-Nov-2007 03:34
Thank you all for your comments. Very minimal post processing done here so I can share the images with you right away. To Bong I will be happy to take your portrait using dramatic low key lighting...yung tipong pwedeng pang National Geographic. Cheers.
Bong Nisperos 06-Nov-2007 02:59
Galing ng mga kuha! Parang totoo! lol..... Great pics, Alec. Pagdating ko dyan, kuhanan mo rin ako pero siguraduhin mong maganda lighting. he he he
