[fengwei]

Finally managed to squeeze some computer time today (well, it's been occupied by either my wife or kids pretty much all the time nowadays), looked through some of the photos I took during the outing. Here are a few to share. I'll start with happy Pentaxians.

And this is always my favorite spot to do street photography here in Chinatown:

Somehow they started the games very late on the day, didn't shoot much. Here is one before the game started:

You managed to catch the chess playing!
Yeah, somehow it started so late.
I was afraid it was no longer allowed or something.

FW, so far you are the only one who seems to be able bring out the best image quality from the K1....... color and clarity wise. Very natural looking pics and life like. The rest should learn from you....

Yeah, they came out after we finished our second round chitchat. Pity some of the usual players weren't there, this round didn't get as good shots as I hoped.

Thanks Bro for your kind words, although I know they are not true

There used to be a sign that forbids pictures taking at the chess corner.
I guess must be put up by the chess players as their concentration may affected.

You waited for awhile to get the best shot for this right.. I also took one but felt not that great. should have learn and camp for better angles.

ya..took quite a number of shots and end up only a few keeper...i pre focus at a certain distance and then when i see the hand moving to there..i just keep shooting..spray and pray.. ;p
