I say goodbye, you say hello.



www.xanga.com/ruelGALINATO





So it seems I'm saying "goodbye" to crueltemptazn and "hello" to ruelgalinato (which incidentally has been my true name for nearly 21 years now). I've recently entered the wedding photography "biz", and I wanted a xanga page that would reflect that. And that's what this new page is; a dedication to my future works in wedding photography (and maybe-likely some portraiture work). So, if you're somewhat interested or just have some free internet time to kill, come visit my page! Subscribe, add, anonymously view; Visitors are welcomed and encouraged.

See you soon!

Self-Interview

So, how has your Summer been, Ruel?


    



    My summer, you ask?  It's been good.  Actually, for the first month or so, I took summer classes at De Anza.  Despite the stigma of summer school, that being the loss of actual summer vacation time, I enjoyed it!  Asian American Experience; I'll tell you, it wasn't boring.  I can even say, when summer session ended, i missed going to class a bit..  Just a bit, though, cause everyone (so I assume) needs a little break.

    What have I been up to?  Ok, so.. I've stayed out, yeah.  I've stayed in for sure.  Enjoyed my friends, my family, my self, and my dogs.  I've been on a quest to mold my body into a work of art, or at the very least a work of amateur attempt.  Haven't gone out of the country, but have been around the state.  I've seen some things I'll probably remember forever..and things I'm still trying to forget.  I don't party.  I also don't partake in alcoholic rituals, and I'm proud of that.  I've been doing "stuff", if that's what you want to know.



It's been about a month and a half since your last photoblog.
Why don't you update often?


    







    Cause I don't.  Simply put, I don't always have pictures I'm particularly fond of enough to post, or I just don't have pictures at all.  I once read somewhere that the secret to being a great photographer is to never show the bad ones.  Of course, what's bad to me may be good to others, and what I think is great may be shit to the rest of the world, but nonetheless, I post in due time.


And due time is now.

San Jose
Kadiwa: Capture San
Jose


      
On Saturday, March 18, I joined the INC Kadiwa Organization on a group
outing to Downtown San Jose.  The purpose of this trip was for
Kadiwa members to hang out and get to know each other through the
shared interest of Photography.  We toured the downtown
streets in search of, well...anything.  We were in search of
anything, or anyone, that was worth a fraction-of-a-second. 
Whether you had an SLR or a simple point-and-shoot, everyone pondered
the same
question...


Q:
When you think of San Jose, what comes to mind?


In a few thousand
words worth of photography, this is what comes to my
mind...

Finally,
San Jose is the home of that one great shot that gives your whole trip
meaning; That one shot that summarizes a day's worth of photography
in a fraction of a second (literally).

Today, at a dim sum restaurant, I received a fortune cookie with this message..

Coincidence?  Serendipidy?
I don't know, but I like my fortune.
I'm taping that thing to my camera!
