Another dayoff adventure. Brought my gear except light modifiers. Ate at a restaurant, walked a mile under the scorching Dubai sun and did what i love most, I took photos of the trip. Starting at the restaurant, i love the light. backlit which gave a glow feel in the atmosphere. metered her face to give it a reading of +1 since she's white ( using zone system created by master photographer Ansel Adams). Used spot metering for most of my shots. IT's the most accurate metering out there and most of the time my camera is set to spot metering.

We got to the beach and i thought everything would be great and all Until i saw a big warning sign at the police outpost... "NO CAMERAS ALLOWED ON THE BEACH!" Crap. big crap. But that wouldn't stop me from taking photos. i had my camera wrapped inside a towel while i took shots. hehehe i was also able to notice that one of my lens has the sharpest quality at f8. dang. f8. f8. f8. that just stuck to my head. wasn't able to bring out long 70-200 because i'll be needing a bigger towel for that.

How i just wish there's more people to photograph here in Dubai. It's not as easy as it is back home. I promised myself to shoot like crazy when im back in the Phils. XDEAL anyone?

and yes, i'd shoot for FREE!
