Imagine 4 standing concrete walls in a rectangle; throw some wooden 2x4's on top, as a frame, and attach them to the concrete walls somehow, then throw on the iron roof on top of the wooden frame. No soffits, no fascia, no eavestroughs, maybe some metal wire to try to keep out the birds.

The leaves are like 16ft long—its massive. Every time a leaf dies and falls to the ground, I have to cut it into multiple pieces before burning it.

If someone asked me to draw a coconut tree, in detail, I would've never imagined the bark to look that way—it's alien. So, naturally, I took a bunch of photos of it; this is my favourite one.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt rained in the morning, and then the sun came out. It was mid-day, hot, and the water captured by the massive leaves were still making its way down the tree stump—interesting architecture now that I think about it. It's like the tree was designed to water itself; you don't really see that with trees in North America. Anyways, this set of events created a look to the tree that caught my eye, mainly because it accentuates the strange look of the tree bark, and it also makes it look like the tree is sweating in the heat, just like I was.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome photos don't have any deep meaning, some photos are strictly for the aesthetic, and this is one of them.

Sitting around watching the day go by, watering the plants, feeding the dogs and the chickens, walking to the store, chatting with neighbours, standing by the corner, and before you know it ... it's night time. Everyone knows eachother and they say hi when they're walking by. They'll spontaneously drop in and just talk. They share food, they'll drink and share the same cup. They share all their cigarettes, and buy a new pack for everyone when it's done. They sit right next to you, close enough for your legs to touch. They put their arm on your shoulder when you're walking down the street. They talk louder and laugh harder. They don't need an aux cable, because they have a guitar. I imagine there's a negative side to this as well: things get done slowly, people are always late, and everyone knows your business.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf you ever meet someone who's always late, it might be because they—or their family— comes from a place where time doesn't matter, where everything moves slowly, where things don't have to be done now—they'll be done eventually, where simply arriving is the same as arriving on time. It's not because they're being inconsiderate or ungrateful, it's because everyone does it, and it's not an issue.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis court reminds me of the province, because that's where everything happens: When you need to send money to relatives or buy a pack of smokes or a Coca-cola with a bag of ice—there's a Sari-Sari store (Equivalent to a convenience store) and a remittance place right beside the court. When there's a fiesta, thats where the games are situated. When there's a basketball tournament, everyone is there watching.

I almost didn't take a photo of it, but what caught my eye was this dog, who was just standing at the entrance of the lot, almost like it was guarding and protecting it, even though it looked terrified-just guarding the remains of her home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"a12t","offers":[{"title":"20\" x 28\" without frame","offer_id":49185226719488,"sku":null,"price":161.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"20\" x 28\" with frame","offer_id":49185750515968,"sku":null,"price":195.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0803\/3832\/1664\/files\/6Side.jpg?v=1786529448"},{"product_id":"6-side","title":"Views","description":"\u003cp\u003eStory:\u003cbr\u003eI was stranded in a rural area of Bulacan, Philippines during Covid lockdown in 2020. I was enjoying my time in Manila, and when the lockdown took affect I made my way to my parents and extended family; It was the first time experiencing the Philippines (my homeland) as an adult.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe were living in my late Grandma's house-a very old, unrenovated concrete house. The roof is made of one layer of corrugated iron sheets, and attached to the house by nails to the wooden skeleton of the house. The wood mentioned, was rotting and being eaten away by termites over the years, and the house is not really sealed from the outside world; Imagine 4 standing concrete walls in a rectangle, and you throw some wooden 2x4's on top and attach them to the concrete and structure and make them into the frame of the roof, and the throw on the iron roof on top of the wood. Birds, lizards, rats, and other animals can make their way through the openings right under the roof where the wood attach to the house. The house had no ceiling, if you were sitting in the living room and just looked up, you'd see the wood and iron roof, and that's all that was separating you from the elements. It was something to get used to, for sure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn November 8 2020, Typhoon Ulysses hit the Philippines for several days, effecting Central Luzon the hardest. It caused extreme flooding, leading to over 70 dead, and many injuries. Luckily, my area of Bulacan is on the outskirts of the most affected area but the typhoon still left it's mark, causing power outages for weeks, road closures from debris, flooding, and damage to homes and businesses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI remember that night pretty clearly. We lost power early on in the evening, and the winds progressively got stronger and stronger, while raining. At it's peak, all you could hear is the wind rushing through our home, I was convinced that our roof would fly off eventually-somehow it didn't. I was looking out the front door glass and I couldn't see anything. I took a flashlight and pointed it out the glass and I just saw our plants fallen over and rain moving sideways from the strong wind; I could probably only see 2 metres in front of me.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen the wind subsided, I went to bed and in the morning I decided to take my camera out and document what had happened. One of the photos I took was of this house, which was only a 2 minutes walk from ours. I pass this house all the time to go to the main street. I almost didn't take a photo of it, but what caught my eye was this dog, who was just standing at the entrance of the lot, almost like it was guarding and protecting it, even though it looked terrified-just guarding the remains of her home.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"a12t","offers":[{"title":"20\" x 28\" without frame","offer_id":49185240776960,"sku":null,"price":161.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"20\" x 28\" with frame","offer_id":49185753202944,"sku":null,"price":195.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0803\/3832\/1664\/files\/TT.jpg?v=1786693875"},{"product_id":"santa-monica-peer","title":"Santa Monica peer","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSanta Monica, Los Angeles - 2016\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003ePremium 260gsm Photo Paper Luster Finish - 20\"x28\"\u003cbr\u003eHeather Grey Series\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLos Angeles is one of those places that you couldn't make up.

My grade 11 photography teacher would call photography \"painting with light\", and what's interesting about using the slow shutter technique to capture cars at night is that it literally looks like you're painting with light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt's all about finding the sweet spot. If the shutter is too fast, the cars just look kind of blurry, and if it's too slow then you don't even see the cars anymore—all you see are light trails. Somewhere in the middle, you can achieve both things.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 2016, I went to New York for the first time. As a contrarian, I have to act like New York isn't a big deal—It's just a bigger Toronto anyways. In reality, New York has way more character, and every time I visit, it becomes harder and harder to keep the act going. For starters: they have bridges, that's a pretty big advantage already. I walked down the Brooklyn Bridge and took this photo near the end of golden hour. The rush of cars leaving Manhattan through the Brooklyn Bridge with the sun in the background perfectly conveys the hustle and bustle of the big city. The warm colours of the headlights contrasting with the cool tones of the city, make it look like all the energy of the city is escaping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis shot is 10 years old, and it's gone through many different edits over the years, this one is easily my favourite. I'll be selling my photo prints for the first time ever and this shot will be one of them. Available in colour and Heather Grey.
