Long Weekend

That long weekend started on the eve of May 27, 2010 - Thursday. Isang matinding pagkabagot ang inabot ko while I was watching TV in my room. Ang male gimmick buddy is out of the country kaya wala akong mahatak na gumimmick on a late night. Then suddenly, nagka-idea ako na lumabas na lang mag-isa with my camera (although plan ko na din na ito ang gagawin ko in case mainip talaga ako sa bahay) at sumugod ako sa Raffles Place.

With everything I need and I want, nag-umpisa na akong mag-click ng camera. Nakakatuwa pala sa Raffles at around 11PM, kasi ine-expect ko na solo ko ang place, pero yun din pala ang time ng mga serious photographers, kaya nakapila kami sa pag-shot ng nagniningning na Singapore.

This must be one of the first images I took as I just got out from the train when I saw this beautiful lights in front of Fullerton hotel. These kind of trees and light posts always remind me of Beverly Hills in California.

The image below created a very beautiful light effect after one boat passes by, a colorful boat that is. This is the Boat Quay, it has been ages since the last time I ever sat on any of their seats. Hmmm, I think it's about time I plan for a visit soon.

When I was out in the field recently for photo-shooting opp, I tend to look on my left, right, front, back, top, bottom, and etc. And these architectures really won't compromise the beautiful sight of Raffles Place.

After walking of about 2 hours, I moved to another site which was just few minutes walk, safe to say. I got fascinated by this bridge and was actually inspired by my mentors Wini and Tonet when they produced a lovely image of this bridge. And so I stopped under it, and assemble my stuff carefully, articulately that is and set the time to 10 seconds to avoid any form of movement which can destruct the crispness I have been wishing. Well, I got the bridge finally. I loved this.
Photography has becoming more and more dwelling on me right now, the fact is, I have never ever planned an oversea trip in my life than today. I will be in Surabaya Indonesia in July for a wedding, and an extra visit to a mountain to satisfy my photographic soul. In a couple of weeks time, I will be in Philippines where I am planning to have a short visit to Mt. Pinatubo (fingers crossed and really hoping that weather will favor me and of course my parents would allow me to use their wheels), if not, I will make my town beautiful in photos.

This is a good sport I should say. C'mmon baby click it.
