On May 2nd, my friend Karl and I did a little photoshoot in sunny Intramuros, Manila to try out portraits with the LC-A 120 and Lomography Redscale. Although we were initially trying to capture the feel of the movie Amélie, the location, the Redscale film stock and the prop we used (a book of works by Philippine National Artist Nick Joaquin) made it reminiscent of an iconic short story by Joaquin instead, called "May Day Eve", included in the book. The events in the story coincidentally fell on the evening before May 1st and took place in Intramuros, too!
