Do you want to know the story behind this?
Last summer (2007), I took up History of Filipino Muslims and the Indigenous People of Mindanao, Sulu and Palawan: We were asked to make a photo album as our final requirement. Whoever can make the best one will be exempted for the final exam. There were 4 members in each group. But unfortunately, one of our member backed out. He doesn't like our group coz he said that we were lazy.
We tried looking for some pictures in the net but I wasn't satisfied then. There were about 4 pictures available in the net. As far as my creations and ideas are concerned. I came up with the idea that the members of the group will portray the assigned Indigenous and Muslim Group. By the way, Sangil (Muslim group) and Higaonon (Lumad) were assigned to us. Due to some shortage of resources. We used used clothing, malong and some house decors for our costumes. As you can see the picture, I was wearing malong, some used clothes on my head and holding a house decor (fan). And then we used sepia as the effect of the picture. You know what, we used camera phone since we don't have digicams. We were very happy when we found out that we gained the highest score in the class.
My groupmate Lovely portraying the livelihood of Sangil. Actually, we are not sure if this is their livelihood. We can't look for some place where to take pictures. This was taken at the backyard of Lovely's residence.
Members of the group. Lovely, Me, and Marvin

I wasn't expecting that my ideas were so productive. I hope my ideas will stay.
