<span style="font-size: large;"><b>child's play</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">samsung invited me to be part of a photo exhibit using their newest nx10 digital camera. i was tasked to represent 'fashion'. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">my vision was to create something raw and tracing back my love for fashion ever since was a kid—some of us played with barbies, others played with ken (paging my gay friends, haha!), and some, like my daughter aryanna, cosplays to express herself.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">i also wanted to use samsung's 'burst' multi-shot features to achieve a moving picture feel. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">i had fun shooting! thanks aryanna for modeling for me! big thanks tom to for the technical support (perks of having a husband photographer, haha!) he gave me the idea to pan the camera while aryanna was moving on the 'jump' photo. i think by doing so, it gave the photo more dimension. thanks, hun! you're the best!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">the photo exhibit was last august 11-15 at north court, rockwell. </span><br />

</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">tom is a seasoned traveler and he loves to go off the beaten path. he has been to isolated places like the solomon islands, where spent two weeks alone fishing. </span><span style="font-size: large;">nine years ago, he and his assistant have braved the jungle of mount kanlaon, negros occidental</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-size: large;">to shoot a hundred year-old tree </span><span style="font-size: large;">for the department of tourism. and in 2008, he traveled to freezing mongolia where he found inspiration for his last <a href="http://ichigoandbuko.blogspot.com/2010/06/frozen-ii-images-by-tom-epperson.html">'frozen II' </a>exhibit and experienced eating yak testicles. *bleech* lol! basically, when it comes to tom and traveling, anything goes.</span></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">so on this batanes trip, his advice to aryanna (and adventurers alike): "keep an open mind and an 'open' tummy!" </span></div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="http://tinypic.com/?ref=53tx0l" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;" target="_blank"><img alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic" border="0" src="http://i53.tinypic.com/53tx0l.jpg" /></a></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>the rations</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">according to aryanna, eating yak testicles or any other reproductive parts of an animal is not an option on this trip. she made sure that her dad packed something, uhm... familiar. ha ha ha!</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">notice the big smile on tom's face? he's happy that there are restaurants now in batanes! lol! according to him, when he first visited the island twenty years ago, he could only buy food from sari-sari stores and fresh seafood from fishermen.</span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br />

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><b>dad and daughter adventure</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">it's been an annual tradition for tom and aryanna to go off to some (local) exotic place and have a dad and daughter bonding time. they have been doing this for the last three years. last year, they went off to pansukian resort in siargao, surigao. it's actually our favorite family summer destination. it's where we surf, hang out, and tan. we've been going to the resort for almost six years! sadly, the resort will close down this year and a new management will build another resort. so it was perfect timing that tom and aryanna were able to stay there last year. we will miss owner nicholas rambeau, his girl friend gae, and their dogs napoleon and chocolat (french accent pls.)</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">this year's destination is... batanes! as early as august 2009, we all planned a trip to visit the island as it is one of my husband's favorite place in the world (he's been to batanes many times working in the past with the dept. of tourism.) but since we have a new baby, only tom and aryanna were able to go. it's ok, dylan and i are having our own little adventure at home.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">tom really loves the phillipines. i think he has been to more places in the philippines than me and i've always been embarrassed about that. anyway, i should try to travel around the my country more. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">my husband and daughter are now in batanes </span><span style="font-size: large;">as i write this. they are </span><span style="font-size: large;">doing a bike trip! yes, they ride a bike almost everywhere in batanes. i wonder how they could spend the whole day biking around. the pictures that they emailed me answered my query:</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">i will update all of you about tom and aryanna's bike trip in batanes. all i can say for now is... there is a book involved. so exciting!</span><br />
