TiTLe :: MY OWN WORLD
This one is for Mao.
Took this shot last Summer Class.
What he is doing is called flapping a form of SSB (Self Stimulatory Behavior).
This can be described as repetitive body movements most common among individuals
diagnosed with Autism.
But base on observations I think it's not just confined
for people with Autism. For even Obsessive-Compulsive individuals and Norml people
exhibit such mannerism like twirling of pen.
Self Stimulatory Behavoir helps them awaken or excite certain nerves
to compensate on their other dysfuctional senses or system.
P.S.
You know what?
I actually want to make my own photobook
showing the different faces of poverty in the Philippines.
But in a different angle.
I want to take shots of people smiling looking happy in spite
of their difficulties in scanvenging for daily food.
I actually got that inspiration after I saw one of Joel Garcia's shots
of streetchildrens with this BIG grin plastered on their faces.
(^_^;)
but I need to improve more my knowledge about using cameras
and I need to buy first my own DSLR.
