I really love the guys and gals of the Gensan Camera Club or GCC if you may. They're a band of photo enthusiasts cum hobbyists cum professionals who share their love for the art of the captured image. Photos for me has always been "frozen memories" a living diary of what transpired, a record of moments..but being around these photo hobbyists in the GCC made me see the real art that they see in each of their camera frames. At this day and age, a photograph is not merely a recording of events or "photo journalism" but it is a work of art. It takes not only the ability to frame your subject but the expertise on knowing how to maximize the use of your DSLR camera or post processing to come up with an artistic photo.

So it comes not as a surprise that the GCC was invited to have a photo exhibit at one of the leading malls here in GenSan, the KCC Mall of Gensan. They showcased their works of art centering on photos taken during previous year's Tuna Fests.
Even before the ribbon cutting, people in the mall were already viewing their photos. I even saw some taking photos of the exhibit in their own cellphone cameras (I guess that includes me! :). "It's fine" as one member said, "just as long as they recognize copyright and not use the photos they took of our photos on display for public viewing" hahaha! yeah right. I saw one onlooker taking a photo of the only portrait in the exhibit resizing it in his cellphone..probably a fan. :) Nonetheless, it was nice to see the Generals admiring the works of their fellow General.
If you are within the area and you have time this weekend, come visit their exhibit at the upper ground level of the KCC Mall of Gensan. And see for yourself how talented the contingent of the Gensan Camera Club really are. You don't have to take my word for it, come see their works of art on display. Words afterall won't give them justice. See you all there and have a GenSan Tuna fest eXperience with us!
Thank you to KCC Mall of Gensan and Fuji Perfect Image for sponsoring this event! |
