For Filipinos, Facebook is their biggest communication and has become a part of their lives.
In fact, Facebook seems to be an active tool for exchanging information in Japan as well.
I can also get some updates on my wife's family in the Philippines through Facebook.
As you might expect, my wife is a frequent Facebook contributor. Recently, she posts more short videos than photos.
She usually takes selfies at home, but when we go out together, I sometimes become an impromptu photographer.
I wrote in my blog that I took my wife to the hospital the other day, and she instructed me to take a video of her in the waiting room before the examination. That was not a video of the waiting room, but of my wife getting an injection in the examination room.
It is not unusual to bring a smartphone into a doctor's office, but taking a video seems to me to be problematic. I thought about asking the doctor's permission to take a picture, but he would probably say no. So I decided to take a hidden picture.
So I decided to take some hidden pictures.
Hold the smartphone in as natural a state as possible so that the patient does not realize that you are taking a video. It is very difficult to get a good shot of the injection being given while looking at the screen of the smartphone.
managed to finish the photo with a pounding heart, as my wife requested, but I knew it was not good for my heart.
Needless to say, my wife uploaded that video to Facebook.
