Portrait Photography is a group of people or a person that displays the personality, expression, and mood of the subject. The focus of this photograph is usually the person's face on how he express himself freely and away from frustrations. The photo was taken inside the studio using the Nikon settings "Monochrome". Black and white photography produce images containing tones of grey, and mixed up with black and white.

In fact, I took this photo for a reason not for my portfolio or vanity from my friend here, it's because the photo stands for freedom of expression, it was said in the 1987 constitution of the Republic of the Philippines, Article III, Bill of Rights - Section 4 "No law shall be passed abridging the freedom of speech, of expression, or of the press, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble and petition the government for redress of grievances." 

And now the Filipino people are now facing the new bill the Cybercrime Prevention Act of 2012, officially recorded as Republic Act no. 10175 it is a law here in the Philippines that was approved by our government officials in September 12, 2012. It address legal issues concerning online interactions, cybercrime offenses are cybersquatting , cyber sex, child pornography, identity theft and illegal access to libel or data.
