One of our guest speakers at PhotoWorld Asia 2008, Clay Blackmore, was setting up his camera gear in preparation for a photo shoot. He was doing this (and greeting people who were milling around him) when the tripod on which his expensive camera and lens were mounted started to tilt over.
It would have been a total disaster – broken camera, unusable lens, cancelled photo shoot and a bruised ego – had it not been for the quick response from the gentleman who suddenly appeared from the left to save the day. That was Jun Rapanan, one of our photographers at the FPPF. Clay Blackmore, who heaved a big sigh of relief, gave Jun P10,000 for saving his expensive camera gear.
