<< Introduction for the Speaker >>
Good evening fellow Pinoygraphers.
We have a special guest tonight. You know him in the forum as Sons_of_Jorge or SoJ. And, I believe over 50% of the members had been a “victim” of his balance comments, soul-full encouragements, and hard-hitting critiques. He wrote most of our write-ups, newsletters, and articles that were published in DPP & Mabuhay Magazines.
One of the founders of PG, my photo-buddy, please welcome our brother from the land of the sands & camels…
