Why do I like Photography? Because I can't Draw
Let the photo speak for itself.

Wanna learn Adobe Photoshop Post processing for Photographers? Contact Me. I do one on one tutorials.
Best wide-angle lens? Two steps backward. Look for the 'ah-ha'.
The camera doesn't make a bit of difference. All of them can record what you are seeing. But, you have to SEE.

Nikgilkim says:
"I've known Ruel for quite a long time and he's a good friend. We worked together in Batam, Indonesia and I've seen from him a good talent in photography. He took the pics not as an amateur but more than a professional photographer. I knew that this kind of hobby is quite costly from the camera he used and its accessories. Whew, he's really something spending a lot of money for his hobby. Well, I knew that someday all of what he spent will not perish. With his enthusiasm, perseverance, ability, talent and creativity will lead him to success."

"Ruel has never been one to rest on his laurels.In fact, if he is going to rest on anything,you better believe he's going to produce it himself. His photo's is a HOTBED of BURGEONING FASHION TALENT and anything this photographer feels like pulling out of his sleeve. If anyone can ignite a new interest in photography,it's the Filipino photographer,Ruel Tafalla !

"I have just discovered Ruel's photostream about 2 days ago and here I am writing a testimonial for him. That is how good Ruel's work is. Often your find some good photographer in flickr that are good but have really only few genre that they're good in. Ruel is different in a way that he shoots everything from potrait to street shots and from B & W to infrared and they all look good, in fact they all look great. I always tell my friends that if you go to Ruel's photostream, just pick any page and you won't be dissapointed... I normally spend hours on end on his photostream whenever I logged into Flickr since I found his photostream. Thanks Ruel for sharing."

"Ruel does a wonderful job of capturing the Florida coastal scene. His work is highly creative and enahances the subject. He is always true to the stunning beauty of the coastal low- country and presents it in a way that is surprising and fresh. Click on the slide show and enjoy the ride. You will not be disappointed.
