Light On My Hands by Oming Photography

Today, I am the subject of this photo. I asked by brother to shoot me while I'm holding the flashgun. It's been so long since I tried off-camera flash photography, and it's nice to have some output like this one.

Jesus Our Firm Foundation - Intrepid Movie

This film maybe one of the best film JOFF had ever created. For three years of being personally present during JOFF Film Festival, I have witnessed that all teams had grown up and leveled up how they shoot, edit videos and most importantly how the characters act. I'm looking forward for another wonderful film festival.

Bible Passage:

Psalm 27:14 ESV
Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!

Message: I have been playing the song "Worth The Wait" by 33 Miles. This song reminds me that God has a better plan for me why I am jobless for almost a year. Although, sometimes I questioned Him why I can't find a job the fits me with a high salary and a good boss.  But after questioning Him, I thank God because He supply all my needs despite of no monthly income. I believe from some lines of this song "God has perfect timing, Never early, Never late" For me, God's timing has not yet come, He's looking for a perfect timing, and I'm patiently waiting. It also says that "It takes a little patience, And takes a lot of faith" I was wondering when this God's perfect timing would be? Maybe, He is dealing with me to increase my faith.

Conclusion: Wait for God's timing and always bear in your mind that He has some great for you that you couldn't imagine. Increase your faith!

Oming Photography Facebook Page reached 350 likes!

I would like to thank everyone who had been part of my Facebook page 350 likes. I know this number is far away to millions, yet it is another milestone for me as a hobbyist photographer who started from nothing. As you visit my facebook page, you'll know and see how I started from my shots. I know there are lots of overexposed, underexposed, over post processed, and framing is not good with my shots but I know in myself that I gained up knowledge.

I'm looking forward for more great shots and experience. Anyways, Big Thanks for your support! May Our God continue to bless us!

Patar Beach, Bolinao, Pangasinan

Me together with my family spent a day at Patar Beach located at Bolinao, Pangasinan. This place is so wonderful and so refreshing. This a clean and clear with white sand beach.

From Dagupan City, we took more than two hours of travel time. We made two stop over, first, when we bought ice blocks at one of the "Talipapa" before Brgy. Patar. Second, when we took photos at the Lighthouse. During our stay at the Lighthouse tower, there are many people who are also taking photos. Don't miss taking photos here, although I really don't know if the tower is still functioning.

Lighthouse Tower, Brgy. Patar, Bolinao, Pangasinan

When you reach the bridge welcoming you to Brgy. Patar, you'll probably be amaze. During this time, you'll feel much more excited to swim or just take a walk on a white sand.

We stayed at Costa del Fuego. One of the person in-charge here charged with Php 20.00/adult, Php 10.00/child and Php 500.00 for the shed. And around Php 80.00/parking fee. We don't have idea if we were overcharged or not. Well, happiness must continue so we just take the charged. It's peak season that's why maybe shed rentals had increased.

If you wanted to take out souvenirs, there's a place wherein you can choose from several souvenir booth out there.

Souvenir Booth

Truly, It's more fun in the Philippines and It's more fun in Pangasinan. Thank God for this wonderful place you've created.

Bible Passage:

Proverbs 28:26
If you think you know it all, you’re a fool for sure; real survivors learn wisdom from others. (MSG)

Message:
I admit that sometimes, I'm a fool, in a sense that this verse was saying. There are times that I think that I know all what I'm doing; that I don't need any others help or assistance. Because most of the time, I'm not a team player. I'm at my best when I play individually especially in the aspects of computer technology. Then while I was reading this verse, It comes to a point I was asking myself where did I get lots of information that I was able to apply in my computer world? The answer is through the internet. Who gives some information in the internet? The answer is people. So, I was surviving computer world through gathering information from the internet, that some people had shared. In short, I'm a survivor of the computer world through the help of others.

Examples:
Patients needs Doctors, and Doctors needs also Doctors because Doctors are also patients.

Persons who wants to have a hair cut needs Barbers, and Barbers needs also Barbers because Barbers also wants to have a hair cut, they can't cut their by their own.

Conclusion:

God wants us to know that we need others in able to survive. God gives us only the wisdom we've asked for while others shares wisdom from what they’d asked from God. So share also the wisdom we've asked from God to let others survive. It’s simply give and take.

Bible Passage:  
Proverbs 2:6
For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
 
James 1:5-6
5If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. 6 But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. (NIV)

"Wisdom is the ability to think and act utilizing knowledge, experience, understanding, common sense, and insight." (Wikipedia)

Believe (The Free Dictionary)

1. To have firm faith, especially religious faith.

2. To have faith, confidence, or trust: I believe in your ability to solve the problem.

3. To have confidence in the truth or value of something: We believe in free speech.

 

Message: Sometimes, we may be too confident with our own capacity or with our own knowledge. We don't recognize God's wisdom because we know in ourselves that we can solve or pass any circumstances. Then, when we came to the point that we realized that we need His wisdom, we do ask but we lack trust. When we ask, we must also believe in Him. We must trust God that He will give you the wisdom you need.

Conclusion: God's Wisdom is free. All you have to do is ask and believe.



 

Egg Sandwich | Oming

First and foremost, I would like to let you know that I'm  not good in the kitchen. I can't even cook any single menu. All I know is to  fry & boil.

Today I've prepared an easy 1-2-3  breakfast meal. Egg sandwich with Tomato & Lettuce. Me and my family shared with this breakfast meal.
 
Special thanks to my brother from Pedrito's Bakeshop & Restaurant for the Wheat Bread.

Happy Birthday Bro. Delfin Katubig

Happy Birthday Bro. Delfin! God bless you more! Have a blast!

Our first out of town for us this year. Hopefully, we could have our first out of the country trip also this year (lol). Well, we both planned to go up to Baguio City after Panagbenga Festival so that it would be absolutely less traffic.
Our main purpose why we went up is to get to DFA. (It was Saturday, DFA located at SM City Baguio is open) we got there around 8am, line is almost long. We got our queue number 171 & 172, which they will only entertain us around 2:00-3:00pm, so while waiting for our time, we spend time at Burnham park, we do biking, skating & chi-cha. We do also meet with our mate Gilda who is working at some place at Session road.
Around 2pm, we get back to DFA for our application. In 1 up to 1 1/2 half, we're done. Then we went to Mines View Park right after for few shots and see the view (again) how that park looks-like after 3 years after our last visit.
It was a tiring day, yet we got more happiness and joy.

This is our first morning date at the beach for this year 2014. Although we've been there past 6:30am, we'd still felt the morning cool breeze. The weather is good and the aura of our faces is good even we haven’t taken a bath. (lol) We spend more or less one hour by just taking photos, eating pandesal and sipped a small glass of taho. Sometimes, unplanned dates or an event is better than planned but has not been done.

Factory made camera stabilizers are very expensive that's why I made my own DIY Camera Stabilizer that I've seen from Youtube which I spend just more or less a hundred. By the way, I'm not pro videographer and photographer, it's just a hobby which I wanted to excel from. Here's my first attempt using it. Unfortunately, after the process of stabilization, I'm not yet satisfied with the output. Maybe, I need more practice with my stabilizer and post-processing skills :) Starring from this video is my cousin, Dheserie David. I'm hoping for a great output for the many next times.
