Hehe, spot on bro, i did tot of that. For 16:9, something like this?

but then, this shot not that wide to do pano crop i guess. If i did a pano crop, i would have less space on top and bottom and hmm, will become too tight. Arrgghhhh~~~ I still love 12-24!:bsmilie:

Nah, i agree with you too. I would also wanna try some new perspective. If not, will get too boring liao. :sweat:

Hmm, i pass my time at work 1 day by 1 day. Been keeping myself busy to block my mind from thinking so much.. Haha, really bad huh.

Well, a job is a job, i am paid to do the work.

Dad and his Little Girl...Always~

So heartwarming to see such scene...

Reminds me, it's been a long time since i last help my dad do his stuff...

I missed the good old days running around underdeveloped SG with his Vespa...

Seems like the only method we know how to repay them now is to bring them out for a meal or gather together to make them happy.

But i wonder if it is sufficient...

 

[Ah_K]

good job bro

Hehe, thanks bro~ Didn't shoot the street for about 3 weeks. 2 Weekends went macro, 1 Weekend Rot at home due to bad weather.

And hmm, this time round, try out tamron 17-50 and nikon 70-200VR for different perspective.

I wanna do a street and candid thread like yours leh!;p

 

[Leong23]

Ya. Agreed with Bro Ah_K that your recent street photography really impressive.

juz go out and shoot lor...
yours are very good wat... i dun see how mine is any better lor
sometimes is abt luck also lar... sometimes things happen, sometimes they don't and when they happen... and u juz have to keep your eyes open and always have your cam around, snap and you are "Golden"

ur 70-200 is very good for sniping, but heavy rite?

love your Mom, can you play with me shot :heart:

haiz, i also love to shoot often. but weekend only 2 days, and sometimes got to OT.. Sianz...

Hmm, i dun see mine getting any better as well. I got friends telling me, my stuff are getting kinda stagnant.. This is why i turn to tele and macro instead. Hope to try out new perspective.

True true, sometimes, all come at 1 time. Like my latest shots, all the subjects just came at the same time. I just snap and snap away.

Yup, 70-200 is good for sniping from far. But hor, this lens kinda prominent. So unless you got more space and hiding place, if not, it becomes way too prominent. Actually, one reason why i nearly sold it is because, i couldn't find a way to properly hold it for street shoots. I use hand strap and do not like to have things hanging around my neck when i am shooting, so neckstrap is out. But well, last week, i found a method, just fix up the lens hood and let the lens and body face downwards and overhang on my hand lor. Hahaha.

Ya, i miss the good old days... Old man liao.. hahha.

Hehe ya, really, this glass is really fast and solid.
Hmm, i try to widen my choices la. This is why all the lenses i own.
1 for landscape and wide angle street shoot, 1 for events and normal street shoots, 1 for sports (which i seldom do) and sniping street shoot. And 1 for macro and abstracts.

Hahaha, my main is street shoot!:bsmilie:

望

My First Shot for the Day and it makes my Day.

Met up with my kakeys at 8 a.m (for Street and Flash Strobist Stuff) and went for breakfast at the market.
However, most of the stores are not ready for business and the whole hawker center is empty.

This old man was sitting in the dimly lit hawker center.

Kinda like the empty space around him and the feel he gave by looking towards his front.

The lights from outside seems to give him some "desire" and "hope" to wait for his friends or people that are close to him.

"Look far and forward" = 瞻望
“Desire" = 渴望
“Hope"= 希望

Thus, the title, 望​
