Hidden In Plain Sight

- on a MANIC MONDAY

 Gloria Maris, Gateway, Araneta Center

UAAP Season 77 Press Launch

{ as the Season 77 Courtside Reporters 

are officially presented to the Press }

SMART Araneta

PBA Governor's Cup Finals Game 4

{ as Rain or Shine fights to survive and tie the series, and 

as San Mig Coffee tries to win it's first ever Grand Slam !! }

Oomph !
At the Fart Araneta

I'm usually Dead to the World on Mondays, cos that's the time time I TRY to catch up on "lost" sleeping hours accumulated from the weekdays and weekend just past. 

But work demands that I do what I gotta do - and once in a while, there are press events held on Mondays.

Yesterday tho, { 11 am } the Official UAAP Season 77 {Hoops Tourney} {the Holy Grail of College Basketball} Press Launch was held - and was followed by a { 8 pm } BIG professional basketball game - { that could have actually turned historical -> like a First Grand Slam ever for San Mig Coffee, and a Second Grand Slam for Tim Cone } - both events, being held in Cubao.

At least, said to myself - I can get to improve my On-the-Spot-portraiture skills and sports action photography - during two "can't miss" events ...
and TRY to put ASSS -> {A Spin, Style, Soul }, again, on my images. 

 Here are some of a few favorite stolen images from the press con.
{on a whim I'm deciding to put only surnames}

Long minutes before the Press Con officially commenced - 

I managed to steal tight shots of the UAAP coaches   .....
