Photos!

Friday Night
went for the workshop to get to know my camera a little better :)
3hrs of theory lesson and how cool to learn that Sony Alpha 100 is now soon to be a collector's item! it will no longer be in the market as it's known to be a "difficult" camera made for a Beginner...? but that's what i'm there for, to Learn.
Julian is a nice guy who dropped us "Golden Tips" and he's been with Sony for several years and does work for Animal Planet so we trust him :)

Saturday Morning
9am everyone met @ Rumah Makan near Kandahar Street. somewhere close to Sultan Mosque @ Arab Street. a very well known Mosque and you MUST visit here when you're in Singapore. lots of little shophouses with lots of local flavours and plenty of souvenirs to pick up. there are also a few stores selling antiques! i Love it!!!

we all met there for the practical part of our workshop. Julian gave us 5 photos and our assignment was to find that spot and take an exact shot. at first it seemed easy but...turned out, not really. but he did stress out that the person behind the camera takes the shots that could make a photo mean something :)

here's a sneak shot i took of my classmates... Assignment Shots

my shot passed :)

Reflection
didn't quite get the angle right...

Arrow Shot
failed this one... couldn't make the arrow
look as if it's really long and aligned with the buildings
Julian's shot of this arrow was published in Sony Alpha's magazine

No 35 was supposed to be orange but they already
painted it white...

Dizzy Shot?

shot i took. but i passed this one :)

we ended up @ Julian's loft where his studio is located. downstairs his partner sells Vintage stuff like this cool bike!!! i want!!! :D

Saturday's photography workshop ended on time but Aysha had to go to the library for a project research. i couldn't bring the Little Ones along so my 13year old showered her siblings and brought them to meet me by bus and train @ Bugis once i finished. i think it's cool that my daughter is able to take care of her little siblings that way :) i'm so Thankful and at least i know she will take good care of them :)

when they arrived, Aysha left to meet her friends @ the Library. brought these 2 to Suntec City for lunch and enjoy some free cotton candy and popcorn :D


and it's always great to know that there's Happy News :)
