Took a few photos yesterday. I put down my camera after some keepers and decided to watch the exciting 5 set match instead. Hahaha. I guess there are times when one just wants to watch instead of taking photos.

Wish I didn't crop her hand. Argh. But I like the shot, haha.

Excellent captures! I love the first one, great timing! Wow, it really makes me miss playing volleyball...

How did you get that angle?

@fidel- nice photos... who won?

I think Ateneo did in 5 sets.

According to the sports news, Ateneo lost one of their key players, a Thai import, in the third set but despite that they still won the game.

Hey, Fidel, nice shots pero bakit panay Ateneo players lang? Kampi ka siguro sa Ateneo , ano? :Grin: Hehehe!

By the way, were you able to get shots of Denise Tan, the pretty chinita who plays for UST?

Keep posting more pictures, Fidel!

Very emotional shots! Great captures.

My friends and I are planning to watch the June 3 game vs. DLSU. Where can we get tickets--preferably near the action so we can take photos, too-- is this possible?

Shot #1 is great. I wish I can take that kind of photo, too bad I'm afraid of heights.

Thanks guys. :)

Yep, Ateneo won in 5 sets but our Thai player injured her knee after a bad landing...

Dondi, yes, hahaha, I'm pro-Ateneo all the way. True blue Atenean here. And no, was not able to take photos of Denise Tan. Mmm, I'm not sure she played that day though. (I don't remember any player going by the name "Tan" that day although my memory may be faulty)

Raffy, I just went in. Looked around for a ticket stall and I also waited for someone to approach me and tell me that I needed a ticket but no one did. Given this, I just chose my positions freely.

Hi Fidel, so it's ok to just take pictures in this V-league without getting authorization from the organizers?

Thanks guys.

It's held at the Arena in San Juan.

Anthony, yes, one is pretty much free to shoot anywhere. The catwalk is "50-50"; I've been able to use the catwalk freely in 2 of my 3 visits to the Arena and my most recent visit required permission.

Nice shots, Aly!

Yup, Aly. That is Denise Tan. She's hot. She was a vital part of the UST Volleyball Team when they won the UAAP Women's crown last year. Maybe, she has an injury that is why she did not play much during the game.

Fidel, buti pa si Aly, may shot ni Denise Tan.:)

Thanks, Aly! Post some more pictures, especially those of the good looking ladies in the other teams. Keep up the good work! :)

Looking at your avatar, I do remember a student named Erwin Cabbab but that was a long time ago. With more hair on top, I might add.:Grin:


Hehehehe! My memory's fading and my tummy's bulging. Time to hit the road and go over the yearbooks.

Glad to hear you remember! You taught physics right? I also see you sometimes during Ateneo games. See you then!
