[Personal] Capturing Jason Mraz


Last October 30, my partner Tobie and I managed to have what felt like a one-in-a-lifetime experience to catch Jason Mraz live in concert here in the Philippines. We totally weren't expecting such a stellar concert so soon after the other life-changing experience that was catching Kylie Minogue live just a few months prior. But then this year has felt absolutely surreal at times, so I've learned to stop questioning and just accept how awesome things are.

And as much as I enjoyed just being there in the stadium with all the other fans celebrating Jason Mraz's music, I also wanted to make sure that I semi-documented the night to help mark this amazing event and spread the love along. I'm a tad obsessive in that regard I support given the effort I put into trying to capture these moments so that my partner and I can look back at everything and fondly remember the night.

And this where things get geeky.

Beyond sharing my "documentation" from the night, I also wanted to take time to really give praises to my camera, which is a Panasonic Lumix ZS7 . I had picked up this compact megazoom last year as a birthday treat for myself and I've been quite the happy camper ever since. It takes pretty amazing pictures despite its small size and it helps geeks like me get to document major events where DLSRs are normally forbidden for whatever ridiculous reasons.
