Quezon Monument in the Evening

Again, most of the pics are in bunches of three, and the black and white pics are high-contrast.

I didn't use a tripod so I compensated for possible camera shake by jacking up the ISO speed and kept the aperture value at around 4.0 or 4.5 in order to keep shutter speed "fast". Unfortunately, camera shake still occurred.

Another thing: I forgot to use the noise-reduction mechanism of the camera, so the shots that were taken with ISO 1600 were very grainy upon closer inspection.

Quezon Monument in Daytime

Mostly high-contrast black and white shots of the Quezon monument.

A lot of shots of the same angle come in threes which show varying degrees of exposure (normal, underexposure, overexposure).
