first birthdays and nostalgic tram rides

It was Teren's first birthday party and I went to the feast with my friends Jeiar (Filipino snowboarder, aiming to represent the Philippines in the Winter Olympics in 2010), and Sara Maestrello (an Italian photographer who's doing a kick-ass project on 'secondo generazioni' Italians , meaning children of immigrants).

I decided to stray away from the usual modes and combination of tricks that i do when taking pictures and this time, using the AV mode which i rarely use. The first few shots were so interesting that i decided to keep experimenting with it, how the light works for and against it, how the focus can become blurred and yet retain a certain 'photographic feel' about it. And so, I didn't realize it, but i went through the entire feast using the cool technique that i discovered.

I don't know. I kinda like it.

Oh, also the party.
