Andy Dinesh from Offstone has a series of excellent Chingay pictures taken with a Canon G3 digital camera, a very good example of making full use of his equipment. i was with him, CK, Greg, Edng at the endpoint.......

the pictures are unlike the typical clubsnapper's (telephoto closeup of faces) but rather, makes good use of the moving elements into very imaginative compositions and picture concepts. you can take a look at his work over at

Anyway here's one he took of me at Chingay, one which i quite like. can u spot me in the picture?

Yup...most of them are snap shots cos the performers hardly stopped for me to visualise and think of how to shoot...

I don't compare as they are using different.

I'm learning to be more critical on my own pictures to see:
1) the artistic part like composition, planning, light condition can be improved
2) the technical part like correct exposure (too dark / too bright?)
3) the camear part: is the camera limiting me from what I want to shoot, or can I work around it to express what I want...

Thanks from sharing, as I can see from your shots... some are snapshots and some you visualise it before shooting?

As they match towards you, can you visualise how it will look without looking thru the viewfinder?

Maybe why some prefer working with primes to learn one perspective before moving on...

I know that most of the non-slr/dslr users have difficulty capturing this events, especially the noise.. just to share some of my pics.. .
