Photgraphy Question regarding Ivory Kris

Mare's idea ia a good one.

Ron, what is the meaning of "oraciones"?

Battara · 29th July 2007, 06:59 PM

"oraciones" is a like a talismanic prayer.

Spunjer, not sure, though would not be surprised if it were Tausug. Yes I think it would more likely be an oracion and then if not, a Qur'anic quote.

im gonna borrow my sis's camera. and try this one more time.

oraciones = kinda like abracadabra. what battara said.

OK Ron, i'm intrigue. You really have to let me have a crack at this baby before winter. I know you are busy with work, but how about next weekend?

In the meantime, can you give me a few technical details.
So, you shot this on a tripod, right? What were the camera settings, i.e. ISO, shutter speed and aperture? What is the light source and at what time of day?
So if i am able to take a sharp picture of this kris does that mean it wants to come live with me?

Spunjer,
I have an offer you can't refuse for the anting-anting kris.
Remember the Katipunan flag?

Spunger,
Sorry I've been AWOL here. I recognize that kris of yours...I know it well. PM, email, or text me on my Philippine cell# and we can discuss that kris of yours. There's some bad karma associated with your kris and unfortunately I can't discuss this on a public forum.

Ingat 'tol,

Z
