Miss Earth Pre-Swimsuit Competition





We attended last night one of the Pre-Swimsuit competitions of the 2009 Miss Earth International. It was held in Mexico, Pampanga at The Lakeshore resort.

This was just one group and unfortunately, Miss Philippines was not among them. My favorites to win the Swimsuit competition were Miss Mexico, Miss Kosova and Miss Brazil.

The event was highlighted by performances of a live band (Circle of Faith), and Ronnie Liang of Pinoy Dream Academy.

Top five (5) best in swimsuit in this event will compete in the Final Swimsuit contest to be held in Fontana Resort. Honors went to Miss Switzerland, Miss Portugal, Miss Brazil, Miss Mexico and Miss France.

Setting up a Photo studio





This initial post was inspired by my idea of putting up a small photo studio. This blog will therefore document the progress of this project from conception to hopefully completion.

The studio will be built from an unused garage as shown. It will be just a small studio that will cater to fellow photo enthusiasts who want to practice and develop further their skills.

I am therefore open to suggestions on what gears, tools, equipment to procure like lighting system, backdrops, etc.

Another blog that I follow is:
