August 19 was World Photography Day and you’re supposed to upload images you’ve made on that day. I was working, shooting Game 6 of the PBA Finals for InterAKTV, so I’ll grab five from that day’s set instead. I’m putting this under Five on Friday but we all know it’s a little cheat since it’s already Sunday. But at the same time, it’s a tribute to Jason Castro’s selfless and heroic act of playing despite a painful career–threatening injury.
Shooting Azkals vs Kuwait
Azkals versus Kuwait World Cup Qualifier—it was an opportunity we couldn’t miss. Despite the stringent accreditation process, we found ourselves right there on the field right beside storied sports photographers, many of them the best in the country. We knew it wasn’t going to be an easy night, with the rain falling every few minutes, and with the touch act of suppressing the strong urge to cheer for our national football team.
Come Fly With Me
Pardon the title’s Jordanesque reference, but this is the closest thing to greatness that I’ve ever photographed.
Kobe Bryant. KB24. Awesome.
(There’s a lot more of my photos on InterAKTV—where you can get the best sports coverage in the country.)
Unfocused
A bunch of photos I just discovered in my hard drive archives, shot last year during a long afternoon wait in a clinic. Unfocused with intent. Almost like my life.
