LightScape: Ferdz Decena Photography
www.lightscape.net LightScape: Ferdz Decena Photography
In the years I have been practicing photography, I have grown to consider each photograph captured as a moment frozen in time, where the landscape of space is given form by the luminance of light. The act of catching this moment is a serendipitous dance between a scenery and the eye of the photographer. I have always pursued most of my photography as an enjoyable way to document a travel. But I decided to elevate this further and create a photographer’s portfolio of my own. Thus LightScape: Ferdz Decena Photography is born.

I never thought that creating your own portfolio can be a challenging feat. It’s easy to bombard people with a number of images that seems great to look at. But choosing just a few pieces that can somehow define your style of photography is another thing. A set of photos that when viewed can easily be recognized as yours. It took quite an introspection and pleasing the most meticulous critic - myself. I’m never really satisfied, but as my good friend Oggie advised, I have to start something and just change things as I go along. It’s a work in progress.

I’m not sure where my venture in photography will take me but I intend to pursue it with the same joy as I started and sharpen my skills along the way. Still holding by the principles of capturing a scene in the most natural light as possible (Yep, no over-processing and HDR for me in the future). In the age where anyone can just pick up a camera and start shooting, it’s a challenge to somehow stand out from the crowd. It sounds a bit cliche to say this but I have always believed that if you are really passionate at what you are doing, it shows in your work.
LightScape: Ferdz Decena Photography is now online at www.lightscape.net. I hope you pay a visit. I have also uploaded the photographs presented at Living by Water exhibit for those who missed it or are not able to visit the exhibition.

that is a fact. with all the advancement in technology (good camera, terrific softwares), it seems like everyone can take a good photograph. but remember only a few talented ones can take a great picture. i believe you’re one of the latter. keep going. if you love it, then go for it.
baka gusto mong mag tutor online para sa mga forever trying hard na photog wannabes like me?

congratulations ferdz! ayos ang linyang ito “I have grown to consider each photographs captured as a moment frozen in time, where the landscape of space is given form by the illuminance of light”. sana nga matuto rin kami nito.
“But choosing just a few pieces that can somehow define your style of photography is another thing”. hirap nga pala talaga. sa dami ba namang photographers. pero ferdz you’re naturally into it kaya may sarili ka na ring galing na hindi lahat meron.
“I’m not sure where my venture in photography will take me”. siguradong mas maraming achievements. i’ve been recommending people to check your site kasi one best travel site and the photography are at its best.
congratulations ulit and as you have said “I intend to pursue it with the same joy as I started and sharpen my skills along the way”. you’ll definitely be successful in this career.

Many thanks iRonnie
Really appreciate the words Photocache. There are rare times when I get bouts of doubts but I always go back to why I started photography in the first place - to enjoy taking photos.
Bro OgBear, salamat din sa advice.
Salamat Erick!
Thanks for the kind words Dom, sana nga this would lead me somewhere great. Really appreciate the support.
Hehehe. Thanks Ellen. Digital arts and Photography na lang cguro konting writing. Pero forget about the singing part. Sa akin na lang yun. Hehe.

Congrats Ferdz. Very impressive . You look like you’re beating your own skills everyday ! Keep it up

I’m sure you’ll have a difficult time making a portfolio… all your photos are great Ferdz! Immortalized ka din dito sa Cambodia… we played the slideshow of your photos again during Independence Day while we sang the national anthem and everyone loved it. It would stay here in the library of the Embassy to be played every year.

Many thanks Lino!
Thanks for the words BW. I guess the only way to grow is just keep edging yourself out
Hi Toe! I really like that video you guys did. Pansin ko nga when you search for Lupang Hinirang my name come sup. Thank you for putting the credits and being accompanied by the music of your choir.
