World Pentax Day: February 4th, 2012 ( Maybe that day we all do Feb Outing )


Hi all I'm new into photography, got my Pentax k5 less than a month ago... Is it ok if a photography noob like me join? Hope I can learn from experienced shooters :)

Yes, of course! Welcome to join the outing!

Feb. 4 is a busy day for me. Not sure whether I can make it.
 

I suggest something off the beaten track.


Sunrise at Yishun Waterfront Park (ie. Lower Seletar)
Followed by breakfast and kopi session
After that macro at Yishun Park.
For the ones with endurance, can follow up with sunset at Yishun pond.

Thought it over, I think we've never been to Yishun Park yet? Probably we give this one a try this round.

Let's try to get a big group this round :) If you guys agree, I'd start the outing thread by the weekend.

Great! :)

Actually Bishan park has potential too with the newly renovated 'longkang' (ie. canal).
So that can be an option too.

Have to skip this round as only be back from overseas on Feb 4th.:(
 

Boo~~! have to give it a miss if it's in the morning.
 

You guys made the decision (on venue/subject to shoot) much harder :( We can't go to all these places in one day that's for sure.

Just some commens here:
1. We've just done a street shooting during the last outing, better do something different this round?
2. Lately the weather has been pretty windy, not really good for macros?
3. Sunrise/sunset is a bit tricky, and we didnt have much luck w/ the weather during the past a few sunrise/sunset outings :(
4. Our outing group is getting smaller lately, probably because the venue or subject isn't very interesting to the majority users. Should we think of something more attractive to more people?
5. A call to all those oldies: please do join us if can. We haven't seen many of your faces for a long time.


I've been thinking about this recently.
I think we may not be reaching out as much as we'd like to.

So to newbies who'd like to know basics like camera settings; composition; PP, etc, but have been unsure who to ask, can look for me during the outing with their questions and I'll try to spend some time with you on it. ;)
