June 12, 2009 : to all my contacts who mean well, Please do not invite me to a group which is not 18+, because my account is "moderate". Please do not take it that I am not interested in your group, it's just that Flickr wont allow me to post my photos in them :-(

I'm really a scale modeler as hobbies go, and collecting miniatures of almost anything is, for me, a natural extension. I recently discovered digital photography, and I'm now practicing with the nearest things on hand...my collections.

I also love the Philippine scene and have some amateurish attempts at capturing them.

update (14oct2006): i joined Flickr end of July and immediately ran up to my 200 photo limit. I went Pro yesterday, and now I can have unlimited sets.

update (9nov2006) : i am now consumed by the need to photoshop every picture in sight. i hope this is just a passing phase and part of the whole learning process. I believe i have to learn it, master it and, eventually, go beyond it. . . so if image manipulation offends you, just walk away.

update (28jun,2007) July is my one year marker in Flickr. I have learned a lot about post processing, but not much about the important part of photography as art ... I still think my photos lack depth and meaning... What I ended up with is a collection of mostly Toy pictures.

Well, I always say, go where your passion leads you, and dont look back. Its all about Fun and the fantasy of the imagination. So go around, have fun... that's what this site is all about.

update (12Sept2007) - hit a milestone of sorts, Flickr flagged my account as Moderate (with sexualized toy figures... hahaha, what a joke!) so all my pictures have gone black. Just stepped into the mature content category. So if you still want to see my pics, just set your safetyswitch to "off".., well until Flickr does their review again ang gives me a Safe content flag. ahh, is this how misunderstood artists feel? nah... one day at a time...

I have an alternate site for 'safe' toy and your regular normal subject photos. This is my captchaos-mk2 site:

    "O.K... Ronald is a talented photographer. This guy's technical ability is matched by his imagination. He has an excellent way of capturing and nurturing the fantasy effects of his models. I am always stunned by his work and style. One look at his phototstream will confirm that fact. Ronald is another flickerian we all hope stays with us for quite some time."

    "I'm beginning to think Capt has a camera surgically attached to his face because he always has new photos. Every day. And they're always great.

    I have no idea how he finds the time."

    "Captchaos has a special sensibility for collect refine cars, figures, etc. and a artistic sense to potograph them. That is why it´s a pleasure to watch his photostream. Its compositions, scenics, arrangement and technical are very refreshing."
