It's been a long journey and hit some some snafus It's been a long journey and hit some some snafus along the way but FINALLY!!! A driver's license!!! 😍 🚘
My modest book haul #MIBF2023 My modest book haul #MIBF2023
I am not a professional photographer so I never en I am not a professional photographer so I never envisioned myself having all these camera gear, not to mention the expenses and storage it would cost me. But by fortuitous circumstances, I managed to build what I would consider a modest setup thanks largely to some good deals I encountered.

It began in June when I bought as a gift for myself an Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II, FL-LM3 compact flash unit (since the camera doesn't have internal flash), M.Zuiko Digital 14-42mm 3.5-5.6 lens, and M.Zuiko Digital 40-150mm 4-5.6 lens at Fujiya Camera store in Tokyo. I then bought a medium sized camera bag in Lazada to store my new and growing canera gear as well as an Ulanzi UURig tripod form Shopee for my camera and phone. I also bought a Cabin Zero crossbody bag in U Elements as my default compact travel bag twhich can hold my camera gear. And recently, I bought from a seller ii n the Olympus Philippines Photographers FB group a G.Vario  7-14mm f/4blens which has become my default lens for roaming.

I suppose all that's left is a good external microphone, hehehe

    Time For A New EDSA Mass Transit Line

    November 17, 2017

    I’ll start by getting this sentiment out of the way: the current Mass Transit Line 3 in EDSA sucks. And it’s not just because of the technical problems it all too often suffers from. From an aesthetic, design, and capability standpoint, the current Line 3 just sucks so bad. Consider the following issues of the system right now.

    Mass Transit Updates (Just In Time For Election Season)

    March 7, 2016

    As you all know by now, the Urban Roamer does not hide the fact how much he loathes current transportation priorities of this government, most especially the policies (or the lack of it) and the ineptitude of the current leadership of our Transportation Department, headed by that guy we all love to strangle, Sec. Joseph Emilio (P)Abaya. From taking too long to get some mass transit lines started to his stupidity on the Common Station issue, his history of making failed decision-making skills is appalling to say the least.
