they are poisoning nature!:thumbsd:

They have Nature, but it doesn't last forever esp. if they keep 'abusing' what they have.

Been a bit busy, so have not gone through all the photos.
Here are some from the stream. Too bad I missed the waterfall.

Taken with KX, SMC-K24/2.8

 

[pinholecam]

The mozzies and whatever pesky bugs really made shooting a bit tough. Should have wore my SAF pants instead of bemudas. :think:

Taken with KX with F100/2.8 macro (smaller insects might be with a AFA1.7x converter attached). Flash from Metz48 with large bounce card


Little Red hopper

Leaf beetle (red)

Skipper

Yellow Weevil

You really got a sharp eyes to find all these insects, Bro.
These are nice macro shots! I like those B/W water shots as well. Well done!

Thanks.
Donated blood to stay put at one spot looking for the bugs :bsmilie:

I find the very rich colors of the stream rather distracting, so I opted for B/W

Seriously, FW has killer biceps. No wonder his shots are always steady.

Hehe, I used to be a lot slimmer but stronger. Now I'm softer and fatter :embrass: Too much beer, too much beer ...

 

[fengwei]

:bsmilie: :thumbsup:

Hey Andrew, make sure to join us next round when we go to Malaysia again It's really fun.

some more macros

Cricket (banded)

The last 2 was taken to kill boredom waiting at the car wash.

Last of my macro

Star in a sea of green

As promised, here it comes -- the water polo match! Actually I was quite amazed and amused to see you guys are so energic, and strong, everybody move so fast! Not easy to capture and freeze the action... anyway, take a look at a few shots!
No PP for this part, directly from my 60250.

We are very serious players!

Somebody is good at "getting the attention" instead of playing seriously!

水上芭蕾？

The advantage of a big body in waterpolo.

Skipper

This 1 from the special garden we went to? It was flapping its wings open and shut, open and shut? Unfortunately, didn't have the tools to shoot it! Nice one here.

Indeed, Ben's really good at blocking shots from Franz .. Lawrence and FengWei keeps hitting those brilliant goals. Darn. I guess you know who is on the losing side. :sweat:

 

[Greg0222]

Hey, hey! Wrong ball!

FW is not only good at photography!

Agressive!

Long long... pass.

[Greg0222]

It's much easier to shoot plant macro -

Another one

With FW's help, I found one model

The first insect and the easy one.

 

[Greg0222]

The water

The girl

The little boy

And the toad -- first model for the shooting session

 

[fengwei]

I was asking SK how to 对联 your 一群酒鬼游马来, somehow I couldn't find something that suits! :bsmilie:

How about this:

上联：一群酒鬼游马来
下联：满车欢笑归狮城
横批：逍遥宾友

 

[istDeS]

Nice title....:thumbsup:

This one better.:bsmilie:

No wonder you are smiling all the way during dinner...

Thanks to Ben, Bernard & FW for the arrangement.

Thanks Greg for being the photographer at the water polo match.:bsmilie:

[oceanpriest]

Very nice photos, especially the macro. Waiting for more beautiful shots from you guys

A special thanks to Ben and Fengwei, thanks for organising this outing. Of course it would not have been possible if not for the participation of the rest of the guys too . I believe everyone had an enjoyable time. Here are my contributions.
