[ OUTING ] - 30th May - 20th June 2009 - Photowalk Series

[kwan0029]

20th June 2009 session (7am - 10am, brunch afterwards)
Location : Dempsey Road (Two blocks are going to go through big change. Would want to bump this up and shoot this first before the end of the month...)
Meeting place and time : Outside Ben and Jerry's.

1. monolime
2. r0n1n + 1 friend
3. khandar (new)
4. marboed
5. chanhb
6. ohmymy (TBC)
7. Jimmypaipai
8. xiaobei
9. headfonz
10. redtealongan
11. kwan0029 + friend (TBC)

Other sessions in other districts will be planned and coordinated and released as we plan things out.

Note : The locations might change due to unforseen reasons, so come back and check the location planning on Friday or before you leave the house on Saturday.

Community Note : Suggestions for places where we should archive would be good. If you hear of any old housing estates in Singapore that might be facing the chances of demolition or tearing down and might be gone in weeks or months, it might be good to sound us out in this thread so that we can archive it in images

hmm the timing and location has changed? checked sked, no conflict. so no problem with me :thumbsup: the only problem is how do i get there?

Taxi. I don't know any other way to get to Dempsey, unless you are driving.

13th June Outing

Thanks Clifford and pals for this successful outing although we might hv encounter some drizzling. And thanks Adrewine for the detail explanation and guidiance wif your superb kit lens. Learn a lot frm u, I shall put theory to test whenever i'm free... hee

AAR:
How to make a picture outstanding than a good picture?
- Making the subject stands out:
* Constrasting
* Background must not be too complicated
* substantial Bokeh (not total blurness!), so that we r able to make a rough guess on wat's behind the subject.

- "Adding" the 3rd dimension, such as feel, story, to the 2-D image
- Communicating is impt wif the people tat u going to shoot else might hv some trouble...

Anymore to add?

You are most welcome, glad to hear you guys had fun.

As this is not a discussion thread, you might want to start another thread instead of using this one since the purpose of this thread is for the announcements for the photowalks.

Answers might get buried with the other discussion topics. Cheers.

Is there a limit on the group size?

 

[microcosm]

Is there a limit on the group size?

No, there are no longer any limit to group size. Everytime we grow too big, we will split up and walk in separate directions and meet again in periods, covering different zones every hour or so.

Hi! I'm new to CS. I have been wanting to find a group outing to learn how to use my Olympus E-410. May I know what can I expect when going for a photography group outing? Is there anything that I need to prepare for these outings? Please advise.

Thank you.

Maybe I can Join for a while, since I start work at 9am. see you guyz!

 

[ohmymy]

Anyone know exactly which bus stop to alight?

According to the bus guide, there are a few Holland Road stops but I am guessing it's B04 Holland Rd-Opp Peirce Road.

Anyone want to meet at bus stop and walk up together?

Goodness gosh, 7am
I'm not the early person \~Q~/ *yawns*
*contemplating to go or not*
Microcosm bro, u riding? Any idea if there's carpark near[er] to the shoot site? Seems to me the nearest parking areas are just by the mainroad [Holland Rd] from the gothere.sg map.

i like the idea of meeting up at the bus stop since i don't know where ben and jerry's :embrass: i checked streetdirectory and saw bus# B11209 (if you're going to Orchard area) or B11201 (if your going to Holland village)

If im not wrong, if you took a bus from orchard, u will see Tanglin Mall, then the bus will turn right and u will see Singapore Botanical Gardens, after that it will be just one or 2 stops away, not too sure about that, I roughly know this cos i have walked from SBG to Dempsey, takes around 15mins or so.

Thanks! I am no good with directions. I will have to figure the way out when the time comes. At most take a cab if really lost.
