This is my 3rd time to attend a photography workshop, and this is my 1st time to have a whole day workshop with photography experts, I remember that I attended a short photo workshop for food photography and then one workshop from the OlyClub members and then yesterday its about photography and travel photography, It's a great honor to meet and learn photography with Mr. Tilak Hettige, a Sri Lanka guy and now lives here in Makati and member of Camera Club of the Philippines, he's been in photography for almost 40 years, and saw lots of his awesome photos during his years in film photography.
I learned a lot and I'm gonna take away those paparazzi moments that I usually do, sometimes I don't think and observe on my photo subject, never isolate and eliminate unwanted clutter on the photo subject. At the workshop I learned about taking pics in good lighting condition, bec. this is the part were we can get a good images and I understand also the visual blocks in photos that lines, colors, textures, perspective, shapes and blocks can give a strong message in the photos when you look at it.
It is the art of seeing, he mentioned that technology is blunt if you can't see what the camera can see. One of the highlight of the workshop is about travel photography, I haven't tried travel photography to other countries, but I learned some good tips if ever I'll shoot outside our country, awesome tips ever!

He invites everyone to join for his next photography class - Dusk to Dawn 2012 this April 2012
