Hi. Thanks for dropping by. I first became interested in photography in 2002, when I took a course in diving. I thought it would be a waste not to be able to share the beauty of the underwater world to friends and acquaintances who have no idea what it is like down there. Hence, my venture into underwater photography.

These days, I find myself shooting more photos on land. I have accumulated some topside shots from my weekend shoots — from centuries-old Intramuros and diverse Rizal province to faraway places like Zambales, Donsol and Tubbataha Reefs in the Sulu Sea.

In case you are wondering, these places are all in the Philippines. I hope that through my photographs, I will be able to show the world the beauty of my country.

Aside from underwater photography and landscapes, I am drawn to night photography at the moment. Low-light photography presents challenges and opportunities to the photographer who wishes to shoot more scenes once the sun is down. I hope the results will make it clear that the effort has been well worth it.

Feel free to browse my galleries. And don't forget to tell me what you think and how you feel about them!

Cheers,
Norman P. Aquino
