What We Did Last Saturday

Yeah! What went down last week?! SBA 2012! Gotta Thank Angie for bringing me along. Well, i don't have much photos of the whole event anyway, however fun part is what happened after the event.

Had an awesome view of marina bay area from the flyer.
We split up went to Gardens By the Bay after our flight but i guess we were exhausted from the heat and all and i didn't take much photos and most shots i taken are either on Fenny's or Angie's camera or actually on film so we gotta wait for it.

Here comes the fun part, we met up again at MBS waterfront to catch the fireworks, I caught it, but not on camera because I didn't bring a tripod so i didn't even bother shooting.

Group photo is a must have

Now for the not so "usual" group shot. Click on it and view it on flickr full screen for best results.
"LONG" JUMP






All of us took a few jumps to get the shot we wanted and neither of the shots were mirrored nor planned, it was purely a coincidence that we had five jumping to the left and five jumping to the right and Fenny in the middle. This is really fun and even better with the right company. gonna try this again soon, this time in daytime!

Marketplaces to the Old and Interesting.

Just got a couple of rolls developed today so i gotta share some shots and maybe type out a few sentences before i prepare and leave for Malaysia, like what the title says, this post would be on marketplace and some old places well i will also mini updates on what's going on in my life. ;D

First Stop of the day, Little India, i can feel at ease shooting here cause the people don't really mind the camera.
Not sure why but everyone jaywalks here even on a four lane road, if you wanna cross the road, just follow the crowd and dash across. **Disclaimer: Do lookout for yourself too, i shall not be responsible if you sustain any injuries caused by jaywalking**

Next stop for the night, Pasar Malam!  (Night Market)

Well, i walked past the night market while i was on my way home so i took a couple of shots.
People don't usually take photos of night markets in Singapore right, at least i did
I always have this feeling that one day such moving night markets would be banned by the government, maybe due to some food hygiene issues license etcetc but i hope that won't ever happen.

And... Yup! When i said a couple of shots i really meant two photos! Hehehe.

Now for the old places,

#1 Old Overhead Bridge at Lor Chuan
This is the only overhead bridge Singapore that looks like what it is, sadly i only took one shot but i'm gonna go back there to get more shots soon!
One of the very few old overhead bridge in Singapore

#2 Punggol End
This place had recently been upgraded and they now have pavements, playgrounds, ponds, benches, toilets and even a viewing platform by the jetty, just a couple of years back, this place was just sand, dirt, trees and grass with a few portable toilets.

Many people come here to shoot the sunset and i also met a few cool peeps that shoot film here.
Btw for sunsets, you would want get down onto the beach and walk towards the left.

Now for the updates, together with Fluttersound, we did video for Leica's launch at the mandarin gallery.
One evening with my camera on the steadycam got my arm aching real bad.
