Yalin 10-Ball

Cool, Cold-Hearted 
 Pool Portraits 
[and then some] 
 - ALL the images in this post were taken last August of 2012 -

Last August of 2012, I  visited the Robinson's Galleria to witness the Yalin 10-Ball Womens' World Pool Championships. {'Twas brought to Manila by Dragon Promotions} Definitely, another learning experience for me.  Did the usual legit action shots, and of course, played the thief, again, stealing close-up shots of the participants - hoping to make "artistic sense" of it all - meaning, getting good, REAL portraits. [and released them in several blog entries]

with a Cold-Blooded, Cold-Hearted Look - Love It !!!

 How close was I {or did I succeed} in getting the images I wanted ? Only I can answer that.  Suffice it to say - I was challenged. The pulse/rythm of pool is obviously extremely different from contact sports like basketball and football. Iba talaga ang diskarte sa pool. [The upside is, as far as stealing portraits are concerned is --> the pace gives one enough time to compose a shot / The downside is -->  the angles are very limited].  Well, Whatever.

WWYT ?

What

{ the hell ! - the f___ ! }

Were You Thinking ?? Ha !

[There's a WHOLE LOT, where these images came from]

A disgruntled Growling Tiger fan
Go USTe !

{What were you Thinking !?} It's an expression/phrase w/ a similar context as 
{"Are you crazy ?"  or  "Are you Out of your Mind ?" or "What's the Matter with You ? "} -Right ?? 

Recently, as I was browsing through my JPEG folders - I came across a set of Behind-the-Scenes images from several UAAP playdates - and particularly noticed several stolen shots of people [courtside reps, athletes, and fans] and whilst looking at their facial expression, simply thought/wondered what these people were saying, or thinking, during those fleeting moments I decided to  snap their photos, albeit from a moderate distance away.

Apple --->  Decena / David / or Duarte ?

Bacon ---> Asuncion /Austria / Aseron ?

 

 Bea ---> Figueroa / Fabregas / or Fadallan ?

Then, Said to myself - Hey, why don't I post a modest random compilation  of these light-candid moments ? {even tho practically ALL of the images had been feat in sep blog posts before}  Wala lang.

Billie ---> Capiz / Capistrano / or Capacio  ?

 Coley ---> Arambulo / Ambulo / or Ancheta ?

Ericka ---> Alcuaz / Alcantara / or Alquiros ?

"What were you thinking ?" is always used in a negative context but [Obviously] [and Certainly] NOT in this blog post.

Gia ---> Jalosjos / Jamias / or Jamir ?

Jane ---> Branson / Bracher / or Brizuela ?

 Jiezl ---> Sto. Tomas / Sto. Domingo / or San Jose ?

At the risk of making this blog feat "corny", or even "TH 2 b funny", tho - I decided to put the first names of the subjects followed by three separate surnames, among which, only one is the real surname of the person.  Whatever.

Jeri ---> Pena / Pinggoy / or Perea ?

Joshua ---> West / Webb / or Winston ?

Katz ---> Salud / Salao / or Sales ?

Kiefer ---> { It's a no brainer }

Kristelle ---> Balmaceda / Batchelor / or Borromeo ?

Lyane ---> Ordonez / Ocampo / or Oreta ?

Ramon ---> Batista / Bautista / or Barameda ? seated beside

Mae ---> Zialcita / Zapanta / or Zalamea ?

Roi ---> Suarez / Sumang / or Santos ?

Is this Sam ---> YG  or is he just a look-alike ?
Look Closely !

 Selina ---> de Guia / Dagdag / or Decena ?

 Patricia ---> Robles / Robredo / or Ragodon ?

A happy UST fan
