Made it to the Canon PhotoMarathon!

Thanks to Iris of PinayAds.com, I was able to join the give or take 900 Canon PhotoMarathon participants yesterday.  She lent me her Canon IXUS 100 IS.  My DSLR is Nikon, so that instantly takes me out of the game. With only a day left till the marathon, I cannot be more thrilled to learn that I can still join and Iris has an available cam to lend me. Yey! Super thanks, Iris!!!

Right after lunch, we were given the second theme for the day. They gave out three and the second one says: Filipinos no matter where they go, be likely to leave a mark of his hard work and merit. The challenge is to capture his great efforts; impart his message through narrating photos. It can be the fruit or the remarkable deed; for it will surely receive an overwhelming remark on your spirit.

Iris did not just lent me her less than a week old camera, but she also tutored me how to use the Color Accent feature of Canon IXUS 100IS. For the record, using this feature is allowed for this contest. I know I could have done a better cropping of the picture, or better yet shot an even better photograph. But I’m just too impatient and with just a point and shoot on hand, I have got to maximize whatever feature that could possibly interest the judges.
