Ten golden rules of LOMOGRAPHY

1. Take your camera everywhere you go.
2. Use it any time – day and night.
3. Lomography is not an interference in your life, but part of it.
4. Try the shot from the hip.
5. Approach the objects of your Lomographic desire as close as possible.
6. Don't think
7. Be fast.
8. You don't have to know beforehand what you captured on film.
9. Afterwards either.
10. Don't worry about any rules.

    "Ron is someone I've always have a hard time saying no to because i just really like working with him. He is very professional, pleasant and also a great photographer. He knows his material and he manages to capture brilliant compositions. I'm definitely blessed to have worked with him and also know him in a more personal level. I'm definitely an admirer of his craft and I feel very blessed to have him as a friend :)"

    "Ron is a master of classic as well as modern glamour styles, and of creative sophistication in his model photography, of males as well as females. He is also quite skilled in his photos of nature and other attractions. I wish him the best luck, and I believe he has quite a future in fashion oriented and other types of photography, if he chooses to continue to pursue those areas."

    "I would not be surprise if the models that Ron shoots will be featured in several local magazine someday. Never have I met someone so passionate about taking photos of 'models' (which is probably something a lot of us would give an arm and a leg to be able to do so).

    Ron's like the LeBron James of the NBA. He is very dedicated to his craft and find ways to continue to hone his skills. If photography is a contest about passion then he definitely ranks on the top.

    Happy shooting and God bless bro! =D"

    "Ron and i are good friends since our expensive home theater and tube audio hobby days not so long ago. A fellow audiophile. We always meet at our audio session to exchange personal reviews of a particular tube audio gear. Even then he is already deep into photography with his tiny digicam, until he had his Nikon D50. Ron excels in every corner of photography, from landscape to macro, from flash to available light, and now, the one that he likes most, women. I mean, fashion and glamour. He is a walking encyclopedia on Nikon. Knows the technical and the practical sides of the brand he will die for. Put his heart to every shutter count. Very creative and patient in post-processing. And, he is the culprit why i skip lunch and dinner now... no more money to spend for it as i already put my fortune in this more expensive hobby that is photography!

    Though he is always mistaken and misunderstood by others, but maybe they do not know Ron that much. He may not admit this but he is truly a soft-hearted person who cares a lot to people he truly loves.

    I just hope he'll find the love he is searching for someday... that will rightfully sit on top of his first love that is photography."

    "chief, bossing, a friend and a young at age person... siya ang nagpakilala sa akin sa mundo ng flickr. Siya rin ang nagturo sa akin kung paano magpakatotoo... Malaking naitulong niya sa akin kung paano magkaron at madagdagan ng lakas ng loob sa lahat ng bagay.... Siya yung tipo ng tao na kung saan ka masaya yun ang ipagpatuloy mong gawin... Mahirap nga lang to ma inlove! pero for sure! mamahalin ka naman ng bossing ko!"

    "Unlike some of the ofher test..writers I have never met Ron.
    Ron is a spectacular photographer for the following reasons:
    ...,He picks out settings for his photographs that are one of a kind
    ....Ideas that work so nicely (like beautiful asian female mobsters)
    ....Seems to get the absolute best out of all his models
    ....Each photo of a model fits so beautifully with the one before
    ....Even the makeup artists and hair stylist who work with him
    are beautiful.
    If you must see one photo don't miss "Hey You". It's arguably
    among Flickrs best.."

    "Ronnie is a photographer whom I have met on Treklens. It was a long long time ago. He has immensely improved since then and I was honored to see almost every stage of his development. To be honest, I am really impressed. Not only is Ronnie a brilliant glamour photographer, but he's also a very kind person. Check out his pictures and you won't regret it. You have my guarantee!!!"
