Nature Photograpy talks - Zoo

skfoo · 5th January 2005

Hi,

Happy New Year!

NPS is giving a series of talks at the zoo starting this Sat, 8 Jan 2005 from 3pm to 5pm (include an hour of hands-on session) at Singapore Zoo Auditorium. The topic is Photographing Animals in the Zoo by Dr Fong Chee Wai (who recently donate the sale proceeds of his Sigma 180mm macro lens to Singapore Red Cross - Tidal Wave Asia to help the victims of Tsunami).

So if you want to find out how to take nice images of zoo animals, be there!

It's free and open to public. However, normal admission charges to the zoo applies.

Cheers!

the talk is free.

and yes, you just need to pay zoo admin fees.

don't think they take reservations? just walk in. the auditorium is on the right, immediately after you enter through the main entrance of the zoo
