The Photographer's Creed

I was at the Hot Imports Night VIP party last March 24 and was trigger happy with my camera.  I was in the zone of catching the moment especially when the the ladies started parading their wares!  In my opinion I had a very defining shot that night and I wasted no time posting it as a teaser for my HIN blog.  I even posted it as an entry in the HIN photo contest.  The picture I'm talking about is the one I took of Sophia Zafra in her revealing red monakini.  

My initial position was five rows at the front of the stage but seeing the throng of photographers in front of me I figured that I'm not going to get a decent shot with all the cameras up in the air.  So I relocated myself at the left side of the stage.  I was alone when I planted myself in my position but as soon as the festivities got in the way other photographers saw the great vantage point I'm at and soon we were like packed sardines!  

I'm pretty sure that everyone who attended the HIN VIP party would attest that it was a SKIN-fest!  The ladies were in different variety of UNDRESS!  Everyone seemed to have forgotten about the cars and the ladies dominated the night which got the testosterone level to critical mass! I was with my good old Sony Alpha 380 with my 55-200mm lens mounted to snap 'em pictures and my Nokia N8 to get some video clips.  My-oh-my!  The night was like a two hour foreplay as the ladies strutted on stage and gyrated to the approval of the male dominated audience!  All cameras were firing from different angles and the ladies were in for a firing squad!  It was during this moment that I captured the picture of Ms. Zafra!  She was doing her stuff right in front of me!  Too near for my SLR so I switched my N8 to picture mode and snapped away!  It was a spur of the moment reflex and I was proud to have captured it!  I'm sure many BATMANs who saw the picture liked it as well! (Note:  BATMAN is short for Batang Manyak.)

Yesterday I got a Facebook message from Ms. Zafra and she told me that the picture was "nakakaBASTOS".  I was really confused by the message.  First of all, she DID participate in the event; secondly, she was the one who chose what to wear; and lastly, I did not ask her to do the dougie in front of me!  Well, the cameltoe was a consolation but that too was not my fault.  However, I did not wish to offend anybody so I humbly apologized to Ms. Zafra and deleted that picture from my posts.  

Part of the Photographer's Creed says:

My camera and myself know that what counts is not the shots we fire, the noise of our burst, nor the flashes we make. We know that it is the hits that count. We will hit…

Personally I'd say that I hit it with that picture---the question is, "DID I DO WRONG?"

Hot Imports Night VIP Party-March 24, 2012

It was my first time to attend the Hot Imports Night VIP Party and I must say that it did not disappoint!  Oh, forget the cars!  I went there to see the ladies and boy did I have a good time!  It was worth the Php 400.00 entrance!  The only disappointing part was that Arianny Celeste did not show the stuff that made her famous.  She was a picture of demureness---which was not BatMans (Batang Manyak) came there for.  Good thing the Mocha Girls, the Bikini fashion show ladies, Jeri Lee, and Nikita Esco provided for enough testosterone fix to compensate for Arianny's lack of "exposure".

The crowd thought of seeing Arianny in a skimpy bikini but what
we got was this.

Nikita gyrating to the delight of the male dominated crowd.

You can't miss Jeri's ASS when you're this close!

An ASS parade of bikini babes!

The Mocha Girls doing what they do best---wake up
the sleeping giant!

Can't get enough of Mae!

Best ass EVAHH!

   

The event was in tandem with Wave 89.1's 11th year anniversary hosted by DJs HTown, Dash, KC and with music spun by DJ Marlon---I must say it was one hell of a party!  

A sizeable crowd gathered to watch and be one with the celebration and with majority of the audience population being mail you can practically smell testosterone in the air!  That's what happens when you flaunt a platoon of scantily clad women  in an enclosed room!  Such a collection of boobs and booties in different shapes and sizes!

But this model really shook the house in her revealing red monakini!  Me and the wife did not finish the show and did not stick to know who won the first HIN Bikini pageant but I'm sure this lady got the judges' attention.  I already had an eye-full so I guess missing the announcement did not matter---UNLESS ARIANNY TOOK OFF HER JUMP SUIT AND DANCED IN A TWO PIECE BIKINI!  That would haunt me forever!
