[dingaroo] Sunday Sunrise Morning Shoot @ Esplanade

[dingaroo]

It's a haiku. However 17 Japanese moras do not always equate to 17 English syllables ("nan" counts as two moras and "nonda" as three)

I thought I was to commit harakiri to understand it ... so cheem!

May I know when and where shall we meet?

 

[dingaroo]

Ok, logistics time.


Sunrise on Sunday is 6.58am, according to the NEA's website.

As such, it is best if you can come before the blue hour, when the sky is deep blue, because for sunrise, unlike sunset, the blue hour comes and goes in less than 10 minutes (from my observation).

As such, I will be there by 6.15am to 6.30am.

Meeting location:
Outdoor theatre (link)

Weather:
NEA predicts there will be morning showers with thunder. As such, I need everyone who has not given me their contact number to PM me your details as I will update you at 5.00am if the shoot is a GO or NO GO.
If it rains, NO GO.
Else, we will continue.

Equipment:
1. Camera
2. Tripod (Necessary)
3. Torchlight
4. Water & light snack (optional)
5. For newbies, bring along your camera's manual.
6. Remote Shutter (optional)

Schedule:
06.15 - 06.30 = Get to know and briefing for newbies
06.30 - 08.00 = Setup, and shoot away
08.00 - 08.30 = Packup
08.30 onwards = Breakfast and TCSS

Getting there:
1. By bus ... if you can catch the morning bus to Marina Bay area.
2. By MRT ... you can take MRT and hit Citilink ... the linkway is open from 5.45am to connect to the Esplanade.
3. By Taxi ... you will have to pay midnight charge if you leave early.

If you drive, and am willing to pool a ride with others, do announce it on the posting. That way, everyone may reach Esplanade early!
Where to park if you drive? Esplanade has free parking (until end of June 2010) from 6.00am to 2.00pm.

Last but not least, my contact number is 9435-1330. Thanks!


Cheers!

Wah, if I can get there by 6.15am, I will wanna take as many shots as possible (as that is the time I haven't got any), especially the sidewall near Esplanade which switches off by around 6.30am. Sorry if I seem a bit anti-social that early

 

[Zeemons]

Guys, I'll be driving down on sunday and if you want to hitch a ride, let me know. I'll going down from toa payoh.

I'll be antisocial at that hour too!!! Cos I don't want to open my mouth fearing others will faint from my morning breath! Hehehehee!

No problem. Go ahead and shoot but you'll treat us coffee ...lol! Just kidding

Which side-wall are you referring to? Must have slipped my attention, despite being the vicinity quite often. Or maybe I'll just headed down early too and see who's up snapping at walls

The wall on the right. The last time, I saw it, I set up, I took a while to adjust all the tripod legs until head is straight straight (that time still dunno how to straighten head the easy way), adjust camera settings... the lights went out and I did a face palm.
