Aking Litrato (My Photograph) are a collection of my favorite photographs from travels, events, adventures, and many more.
Originally, the website is to be called ML/Kit Lens (ML - Mga Litratista) where amateur and hobbyist will share ideas and knowledge to guide new photographers in learning the basics of the craft with the basic tools they have. ML/Kit Lens believe that the basic tools will hone the skills of new photographers.
Photography is the art that had fascinated me all these years ever since I received a Canon point and shoot zoom camera in the late 90's. Through this website I would be able to express my passion and share thoughts not just to my fellow photography enthusiast but to all people around the globe.
"As a former photography teacher, spoon feeding the subject doesn't always turn out the best photographers. Having the student have to struggle a bit and experience some frustration in my opinion produced superior photographers" - Gary Mercer

A Photo Story
"Modern Nipa Hut"
This photo was taken at my hometown in Majayjay, Laguna. While the military was inspecting our vehicle, I saw this small house at the rice fields. Back in the 80's, as I remember, this type of house was built using coconut leaves and we used to call it "Bahay Kubo" or "Nipa Huts". Those that were built near the rice fields was used as a resting place after planting or harvesting rice under the hot sun. Nowadays, those houses are usually made of hollow blocks and cement for they last much longer than bamboos and coconut leaves. The electrical post at the right symbolizes source of power because during the old days farmers and other locals often used candles or gas lamps to light up their homes.
