Woke up this morning and was greeted by a message on my phone … saying that there will be a ‘photo clinic session’ (more like a talk/intro) about film/toy camera photography at Orchard Central, organized by ThirtySix. Well who wouldn’t wanna go take a look at what Jimmy (the boss) has to say, so I brought my family (yeah … the entire army to go support!) to check out the session at 3:30pm.
Here’s a couple of shots taken at the ‘photo clinic session’. Click on the image below for a (slightly) larger version.
After quite a long time … Fitzand gets to meet his favourite ‘jie jie’ (sister) Noreen again. As usual … the two kids were clowning around and this time … their toys were in the form of giraffes …
Noreen trying to show off that her giraffe is cuter and smaller. Little did she know that doing so was a very ‘risky’ move … as Fitzand might wanna confiscate it. True enough, Fitzand asked if he could bring the little one home. Thank God … he has quite a few other little giraffes at home and I managed to tell him that he can’t being back Noreen’s giraffe. Hmm. I thought she’s into camels? Nevermind. It’s a personal joke. 😛
I think I’m kinda addicted to using the Sweeping Pano mode on the camera. Maybe it’s time to dig out my Horizon cam and feed it with a roll (or two) of film. Hmmm …
We had some beer but I had to refrain from drinking too much. The darn carpark at Orchard Central takes a very sober person to navigate … and my wife was afraid of the super many sharp turns to get the car from level 7 to the road.
Few more randoms …
After the early dinner (and beer), Fitzand got lucky because there was this live lion dance performance (from Taiwan) at a mall nearby. He was thrilled! He’s a big fan of these lion dance thingies.
Luckily managed a (at least little) decent shot of the ‘lion’. Taken in auto mode without flash … with one hand! Quite amazing eh?
Fitzand clowning around after the performance 😀
These are a few other random photos I took today at Upper Pierce reservoir using the Sony DSC-TX1. Now I’m really impressed what this little point-and-shoot camera can do.
It has been quite an eventful Saturday. From bringing Fitzand to shop for some Chinese New Year decorations and some clothes (they’ve to wear those ermm … funny and weird looking Chinese style clothes to the childcare on next Wednesday for an early celebration) … bringing him for a short walk/run at the reservoir … to putting up the decorations and later zoomed to Orchard Road for the photo clinic.
I’ll probably try slow down the pace tomorrow, rest more … and hopefully be able to finish some rolls in my cameras.
