Punta ako ng Thursday. Checked the sched, halos pare-parehas lang ng activities eh.

i was there last year and couple of years ago before to shoot
if you can't go really really really early to catch the balloons, i'd honestly skip it. after that, the whole day is going to be boring, hot, dusty and surprisingly crowded as hell. we thought they were going to light up the balloons again at night, because thats what the schedule said, so we waited the whole day... noooope. they fired up a few burners and that's about it.
never going back there.
PS - stay away from the portalets. *shudders*

Awww, really? That sucks! Thanks for the reminders. :)
I don't have a problem with the portalets, my kidneys don't function anyways. I don't need to pee. :-D

dapat 330am naka park kana para makakuha ka ng magandang pwesto.
pag inabot ka ng 3am sa angeles road, malayo na pwesto mo sa parking
wala ka na ding makukuhang magandang pwesto sa may bakod, dahil puno na.
(though di ko alam situation pag thursday event)
2013 di ako makakapunta dahil nasa ibang bansa ako.
punta namin jan lagi yung sunday, bagsak presyo na mga kites. hehehe
-
hindi sila nakapagpalipad last year.. Too windy.
Punta din kami! Next week na to! kita kits!

Baka pag weekend yan. I don't think madami ang crowd ng Thursday kasi alanganing araw eh. Baka Friday pa pwede. That's why I chose to go there on Thursday.

marami tao kahit thursdays. pero syempre mas marami pag weekends.
imo, if you're planning to shoot and you don't have a photographer pass, not really worth it. well, kahit may pass, I find the event boring. Nakapagshoot lang ako nung umaga at nung gabi na. I suggest after makapagshoot nang umaga (kung may pass ka), punta ka na lang ng marquee mall or go find other place to shoot then balik ka na lang sa gabi ulit. :)

@rennell - parking is gonna be a bitch though.

isa pa ito kaya mas maganda kung may driver kayo kung pupunta!
dala ka pala ng face mask at sabon dahil sobrang maalikabok.

So, ibigsabihin kapag wala akong photographer's pass hindi ako pwedeng mag-pasok ng dslr sa field or pwede naman except hindi pwede dun sa mga areas where you need a photographer's pass?

may bakod kasi, kaya kailangan maaga ka gaya nang nabanggit ko sa taas. para ma pwesto mo kaagad tripod mo, at maganda pwesto mo.
limited lang din naman yung pass e, kaya 95% ng mga photographer dun sa may bakod lang.

Nyek... :eek: Parang nawawalan na ako ng gana ah... <_<
-
ok lang brad, maeenjoy mo yan.
dala kayo earthpad o kaya banig
masaya naman, cyclone wire naman yung bakod,
nung unang punta namin dun dati sa may bakod lang din kami then telephoto gamit naming mga lens, then nung sunod na punta namin may pass na kami nakuha namin dun sa co-faculty ng misis ko sa la salle. ok lang din naman kahit naka halo ka sa crowd andaming subject na pwede kuhanan. kami nga pag nakakuha na kami magandang shot umaalis na kami sa bakod para maka pwesto na ibang tao,
then sa gitna kami ng crowd naglalatag ng earthpad, sarap picturan mga nagpapalipad ng kites at mga kids na naglalaro.
punta ka , maeenjoy mo yan.

you can bring your camera. you just can't get close and its going to be really hard to get decent shots with the big crowd around you. some of my crew got stuck with the crowd that morning, and most of their shots are fuucking heads... i only managed to get my hosts and crew in the VIP area for free after convincing this guy guarding the gate -- turns out it was Poch Juinio.

maybe its better this year. other times i've been there were ok. just never stayed long enough to catch the night glow

pwede ka naman mag shoot dun kahit ano pa equipment mo. may barrier lang between the crowd (photographers, enthusiasts,tourists, kites etc) and the field where the hot air baloons were set up.
photographers pass naman e, para sa mga nag dodocument ng event mismo, or sa mga privileged few na may contact na dun sa event, pero limited lang din naman mga passes,
kaya advisable na naka telephoto ka pag kasama ka sa crowd :-D

ahh I see..kala ko pag may camera ka dapat kuhanan ng permit para gamitin..so yung pass na ito ay para lang makapasok ka sa mga areas na medyo restricted to get better views....understood..
