Pentaxians July 2012 Outing - Gardens by the Bay - 21 July 2012

[fengwei]

Meet up point is at the garden end (red circle in the following map) of the MBS bridge - where you can walk from MBS to the garden across over the ECP)

Parking is free at Marina Barrage, but need to walk abit, a short walk anyway. Otherwise it's gonna be around $1.5 per hr at one of those car parks.

judging at the distance from the map, the straight line distance from garden bay bridge to marina barrage is about 1.5km.
there's a bus stop near marina barrage.
those who park at marina barrage need not walk to garden bay bridge just for meet up. instead can take sunrise at marina barrage.
why don't meeting point at marina barrage as another option?

1.5km would only take like 15min walk max, and it's good to walk abit in the morning

If possible, just walk to the MBS bridge where we can take some sunrise w/ the garden in the view But if by any chance someone really don't have enough time walking over for the sunrise, I guess the barrage is a good spot too.

This would make our outing look even nicer:

i would like to check if this is outing where Emjay would be launching the Pentax K30? Would there be any K30 be made available for trial?

No, it's our regular monthly outing, it's not meant for K30 handson trial. But you are welcome to try the camera from our fellow Pentaxians

Totally new to this park, Where exactly is the spot for the sunrise shoot? As I might be going straight to there instead of meeting at the bridge.

BTW ...i will be driving. So if anyone stays near Serangoon MRT and needs a lift. Let me know.

I am new to the place too.
Most likely will take longer than 15mins walk from marina barrage to the bridge.
Anyway, will take sunrise at the barrage then meet up with the rest of the group later.
