Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (25/366)

Okay, it is a Monday and it is the first day of the week. Gotta start it with an entry to my Photo 366 project, don't you think? It is now the 25th entry although I have to admit, there were a lot of skips here and there, but as per rules on a year-long photo project - if you skip, just move on.

For this entry, I chose a picture of a kitchen equipment, an important one, by the way. Here it is:

"Staple Cooker"


Well, to be honest, as a Pinoy, I cannot imagine going a whole day without eating rice, so I guess a Rice Cooker is a "heaven sent" invention, as far as my opinion goes, LoL!

Until next time then,


Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (23/366)

Hey there again, peeps. After I promised that I will not be skipping a large chunk of days in this photo project, guess what? I missed three full days! Oh man, the day job can really eat up a lot of time and it really is annoying that it make me skip multiple days... on my own project, to boot!

Anyway, I really cannot ponder on things that are lost and cannot be taken back, so better move forward with the project. Here is the entry for day 23, a really tasty treat, if you will ask me.

"Heavenly Cheese Rolls"


Well, I gotta say, those cheese rolls right there are some of the best ones that you can taste, no kidding! Truly Heavenly.

Until next time then,


Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (19/366)

Hello there peeps! To be honest, I am feeling a little under the weather right now, no thanks to the bloody weather which in turn gave me coughs and colds...with a matching fever to boot! Sheesh! Oh well, weather is really interesting here in the Pearl of the Orient Seas; more "Fun" as they say.

Anyway, for the 19th entry to my ongoing photo project, I chose to post a thing that has been my buddy since my illness acted up - the trusty inhaler. Here it is:

"De-Clog"


Until next time then,


Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (18/366)

Photo Project post time again! This is now the 18th entry for the photo project.

For this post, I chose to upload a photo I took while cruising on the autobahn. It features three things that starts with the letter "C" that connects with my personality - That is Co-Rics (Rico Blanco's New Album playing on my phone), Coffee (An iced coffee), and Canon (The Lens Cap).

Here is entry number 18:


"C3 - Co-Rics, Coffee, and Canon"




Until next time,

Ciao!


Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (17/366)

Hey! This is now the 17th entry of my photo project. Okay, why 17th already? Due to some things I have to attend to I was not able to follow up on my 11th entry quickly and as a rule of thumb for 365/366 Photo Projects, if you skipped a day, then it is better to let it slide and move on to the next. In my case, I skipped five days, so I have to move forward and move on from it. Hopefully, that will be the last time I skip a lot of days in this project of mine.

Anyway, here is the 17th entry for the project:

"Sunday Driving"




Until next time,

Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (11/366)

Hey Peeps, here we are again for another entry to my Photo Project 366. Now, I have to ask you a question: Are you a Final Fantasy fan? Why do I ask, you say? Well, if you are a Final Fantasy fan, especially of Final Fantasy VII, I am sure you will be able to relate to my chosen picture for this entry.

You know what a "Gunblade" is right? Let me introduce to you folks...the 11th entry to this series:


"Gunsaw"



Yeah, I know you will ask where did I get this, right? Turns out this unique saw is in the possession of a carpenter friend who told me that this was a family heirloom of sorts. A nice one if you will ask me. Too bad this thing does not have the extra damage feature that Squall's gunblade has, LoL!

Until next time,

Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (10/366)

Time for another entry to my ongoing Photo 366 project. As a result of not being able to post since the eighth entry, here I am binge-posting so I can catch up and make up for days that I missed. Bear with me guys, LoL!

For this entry, I am posting a photo of my daughter dressed as one of the flower girls in a wedding that we recently attended. Truth is, she really is not feeling well as she has a bout with conjunctivitis at that time (just look at her eyes in the picture). Despite that, she did not disappoint with her stint as a flower girl. Ain't she cute in that dress?

Here is the 10th entry for Snaps and Thoughts 366:


"Flower Girl"



Until next time,

Ciao!



Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (9/366)

Okay, it has been a while since I followed up on my Photo Project 366. I have to admit, I never thought that undergoing this project will be tedious and keeping track of it on a day-to-day basis will be a chore, huh? Anyway, if there is a silver lining, it is that I can always catch up. Thank God for that.

Ninth Entry - I chose to post a photo of my trusty camera which has been a constant buddy of mine in this blog. Most of the pictures that come hand in hand with my posts are shot by this camera. Folks, please welcome: "Wan-Wan" my reliable Canon EOS 1100D. A very obvious choice of name, right?

Entry Level Power, On!!!


"Wan-Wan"



Until next time,

Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (8/366)

Okay, here we are on the eight entry to my Photo 366 Project. Now, this one will be a very meaningful one, as in a "personal level of meaningful." As you can see the photo I am posting today is of two picture frames. These picture frames are from me and my wife's wedding from five years ago. So, as we are currently celebrating our "Wood" anniversary, I guess there is no reason not to feature a photo of our wedding in this photo project of mine.

Here it is, the eight entry to my Snaps and Thoughts 366 series, Cheers to me and my wife too.



"Anniversary"




Until next time,

Ciao!

Flower Girl Version 2.0

She improved on her second stint


Just a few months after her first stint as a flower girl, our daughter seems to be on a roll as she was asked to be a part of another wedding entourage - as a flower girl - again. Now, none could be happier with that news than us, her parents, of course.


Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (7/366)

Hey! Photo 366 Project entry time again. I chose this photo I took while I was having a break from my work. I don't know why, but I think taking a snap of those padlocked lockers has an eerie vibe to it. Silly, right?

Anyway, Seventh entry to my Snaps and Thoughts 366 series, come on down!


"Locker Room Lore"


Until next time,

Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (6/366)

Hello! Time for another addition to my Photo 366 project. This entry features an unopened pack of a very popular British food item. A biscuit made from shortbread with either a raspberry or strawberry jam filling. I am talking about the famous "Jammy Dodgers"

Named after Roger the Dodger from the Beano comics, this food item is more memorable to me when I saw a certain popular British character use a piece of this biscuit as a counterfeit "self destruct button" to fool an evil race. Too genius..for a Doctor.

Anyway, here is the sixth entry to my Snaps and Thoughts 366 series.


"A pack of Self Destruct Buttons"


Until next time,

Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (5/366)

Hey peeps! Here is another entry to my photo project. This time around, this one is shot with a mobile phone camera - a lowly 5MP camera, that is!

You see, as photo projects require you to have a photo every day as possible and DSLRs can be cumbersome, there are times that you have to shoot with what you always have with you and that is, the proprietary camera on the mobile phone. Well, they do a great job, in fairness. You know the saying "It is not the camera, but the photographer" right? That rings true, always.

Anyway, here is my fifth entry to my Snaps and Thoughts 366 series and here is also a quote to go with it.
“Life is like a pavement. Some slabs are perfect, others broken or cracked, but at the end it is always a complete and perfect slab.” 
"Pavement" 


Until next time,

Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (4/366)

Time for another entry for my Photo 366 Project. For this one, I chose a picture of something in relation to what I want to concentrate on this year (my Guitar playing and Music, in general) - my Trusty Amplifier.

Here is today's entry for my Snaps and Thoughts 366 series:

"Sound Check"



Until next time,

Ciao!



Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (3/366)

For the 3rd entry on my Photo 366 Project - which again, I am posting quite a bit late of schedule - I choose to put a picture with cats on it; kittens to be exact.

Without further ado, here is the third Snaps and Thoughts 366 entry:

"Two Kittens and a Cutie"


Oh, the girl in the picture is my very own daughter who is growing up to be a cat lover. Ain't that fantastic?

Until next time,

Ciao!



Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (2/366)

Okay, as you all know, I have started a Photo Project for this year and it is a 366 project (since 2016 is a leap year) and guess what? I had not uploaded a photo on the second day! Sheesh!!! Anyway, as the saying goes, it is better late than never, right?

So here is my second entry to my Snaps and Thoughts 366 project, a photo of something cute that we received as gifts from the holidays.

"Charge to Cuteness"



Stay tuned for the next entry.

Until next time,


Ciao!

Snaps and Thoughts 366 - My 2016 Photo Project (1/366)

Hey Peeps! Happy New Year!

For my first post for the year 2016, I am going to start with a Daily Photo Project. For the uninitiated, this will be a Photo Journal for the whole year where I will have to post one picture a day, every day of the year. I have been pondering about this idea for some time now and I guess there is no right time to start it than the first day of the year. I will call this project of mine - "Snaps and Thoughts 366"

For my first photo entry for my Snaps and Thoughts 366 series, I present this picture titled...



"Eleventh Hour is Over"



Update (January 1, 2016 21:56): What makes this photo project more special is that I got to do this on a "leap year" hence the 366 instead of 365. I missed that before and had made the corrections in this post.

Until next time,


Ciao!
