Manila Ocean Park

We like to go out and bring our DSLRs out on an adventure, so last July 24, we decided to go to Manila Ocean Park. Typical of these kinds of parks is that visitors are not allowed to do FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY. Most, if not all, were not following this simple rule. I guess they don't know how to read or they just don't want to follow rules or they don't know how to manipulate their cameras. Whatever it is. Poor fish! Blinded by light.

The place was so dark that we're forced to bump up the ISO's of our DSLRs. STRUGGLE!
(I must say 100MACRO is my most fun lens-DIK)(I must say, I love macro- Nik)


Our Ayasib Shots First
(By the way, Dik, you didn't include our tunnel shots. Too humiliating ba? Chicken. Gobble gobble gobble. Ay iba pala yun-Nik)

  5. Yea. The place was dark and the only place that got light is the aquarium itself.

    I was originally disappointed with my shots. I thought i wont get anything good. It was hard capturing a decent image in there. Nik, stucked with close ups. I stepped back and tried to capture a bigger picture. I guess it worked.
