As in any industry, any skill of trade and any business, it is important to keep track of metrics. Photographers felt the decline in income years ago. Some have tried to solve the problem by going digital. It was not enough. While some familiar faces are no longer with the remaining photographers of Antipolo, it may be safe to assume some have gone off to better endeavors. Take Home Treats from

In the quote by Plato, he states, “We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light.” A child who is afraid of the dark can be allayed by the common saying, “there is nothing to be afraid of.” Overtime, a child will stop being afraid of the dark because of society’s common belief that the individual will grow out of the fear and break away from using the fear as a way to feel safe.
