Happy Black Frog-Day..I mean Black Friday! :)
This time, it's a fantasy-based extreme manipulation but with a darker edge. My inspiration is the popular Frogprince tale that is popularized by the Brothers Grimm. In their tale, a spoiled princess reluctantly befriends a frog (possibly meeting him after dropping a gold ball into his pond), who magically transforms into a handsome prince. But in my point-of-view it is different, it's kind of bloody hell or bad ending. Well, who will end up as the luckiest fried frog next time? :D For the ladies: "You have to kiss (eat) a lot of frogs before you find your handsome prince." For the gentlemen: "Be ready for a deceptive romance in any order--Love, Pray, Eat!"

Reality is so Clear to Me (Can I Take Pictures of Your Dreams part 1)

(click images to enlarge)
Welcome to my new Series called "Can I Take Pictures of Your Dreams?"
Pixelrocket has evolved into something dreamy, if I can put it in an artist's sense, it is more surreal than fun. My previous series involved fun and humor but this time, everything flipped into utter seriousness. Dreams are our escape from reality when we sleep and they are so mysterious that they are often interpreted as signs of upcoming events or even hints of past memories.
Taking part in my series is a fictional camera I created called Crystal Eye Dream 90. Also, I'm so thankful for my dream model for making this "dream project' a reality and taking pride to achieve that dream without nightmares and bad memories. =) Now, this series is indeed so clear to me.

Tonight's Gonna Be a Good, Good Night! (Photographers in Peril-Twilight Saga Special)

(Note: Approx. Working Time - 3 and half hours)
The Twilight Saga continues...
It is my pleasure to give utter tribute to fans of one of the most saleable vampire/werewolf films.
To complete my photo manipulation image, I searched for an ensemble of cast (as if I'm a casting director and as if this is a real film) to give a Twilight aura to it. :) Searching for my Bella was a breeze. She also do photo manipulations and not only that she's a beauty...she's Ms. Earth 2009's Miss Congeniality. Looking for Edward was hard and thank God for Facebook wall technology, I got some willing individuals to do the vampy bloke (Oh, I'm going British english). Other casts I assembled are people whom I have known through Facebook and has eventually become close to me virtually.

Without much further ado here's the list of "my cast:"
* DJ Joel as DJ Wolf of Tau Gamma Phi Triskelion of KSA (Took a shot of him during one of his stance)
* Kirstie Joan as Bella ( photo by Joseph Ong Visit www.flickr.com/photos/joseworks )
* Edwin "Jimboi" Abanil" as Edward Cullen
* Cocoy Roxas as Jacob disguised as a Nikonian Rastaman
* Rxl Baylon as Riley disguised as a Nikonian paparazzi
* Ding Viaje as Blade, the Vampire Slayer
* Dhee AmrHein (Ding's Real-Life Girlfriend) as Esme Cullen
* Chuckie Doll as Unknown Vampire

Puppets:
* Werewolf as itself
* Count Dracula of Sesame street as itself

Cameo Roles:
* Photodropouts Laoag as a DJ spinner (Visit http://photodropouts.blogspot.com/
* The entire cast of Twilight Saga as a DJ spinner
* Count Dracula (old film) - Blade's would be victim :D

Baptism Baby yeah! (Macro World Series)

(NOTE: No insects were harmed during the making)
"I baptize you in the name of the..."
Now, our little Photo manipulation star of the Father's Day Special and Safari Sun goes to the Macro World and this time for his baptism. See the previous posts in my facebook or below for baby Alvi's adventure in life. I preferred a Classic theme since it gives you a more fantasy outlook. I decided to use vintage stuff instead of modern gadgetry like a underwater camera. Oh, well, maybe Potter movies greatly influenced me on this. Hope you like this one.:)
