Kristyn Maslog-Levis has been practicing journalism since 1999. She took up photography at Silliman University, Philippines but only picked up her camera again three years ago to pursue her interest.
Born in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines, Kristyn is now based in Sydney where she lives with her husband, Justin and their two little dogs, Stitch and Felix.
Kristyn has had an interesting professional background, with work experiences ranging from the broadcasting industry, print and online media. Although she's only an amateur photographer, Kristyn has had several of her photos published in Australian Photography magazine and been given honourable mention in various competitions. She maintains a photo blog, Mga Hulagway, which she has been running for over two years now. Her dream is to one day finally have her first major exhibit.
Africa in my backyardI am addicted to sunsets. This was taken in sunset mode using the handy little Konika Minolta Dimage Xg. I just pretty much pointed and clicked because I didn't have another camera at the time. A steady hand helped too. What attracted me to this shot was that if you cropped out the Frangipani tree at the bottom, it would look like a scene from Africa.
