Hi guys,
I'm a film user,if you all don't mind cos I've only film cam with me at the moment.

[Josephteo548]

Joe: Sure! Join us, no problem. Doesn't matter what camera u use actually.

Sorry guys....disappeared for 1 day, busy manz.
Place ah..........hey iszzit still at the bridge??? Can we have a quick vote?

1.) Sheares bridge
2.) Close to the grass patch, although safety is a issue as its really near the firing site.
3.) Take from the river bank area last used for the river ang pao events
4.) Take from the Fullerton bridge road area. If you want to capture purely only fireworks
5.) Take from behind the merlion, where you get merlion spewing water, and the fireworks above it.

Just say the number u want to vote for.

I am free and easy, i would personally go for the Bridge cause i think it offers the best view and is easy to compose a good shot of the fireworks. And plus you can take it with background.

But i do bear in mind that there are pretty babes and maybe a very young babe(Don's baby) going so maybe not so practical? And some may find the climb up the bridge tiring etc......

See ya guys!

Cheers
Joseph

I have added the CLOP for the fireworks outing, go to the PLUG notice board to check it out.

Thanks Lifeworld for helping me with the CLOP.

Cheers
Joseph

Francis Tan

[Josephteo548]

Thanks to Ricky and Francis for voting. Both option 3. So now we have:
(1.) 1 vote
(3.) 2 votes
Keep the votes coming ppl.

[joe]

going to Sheares bridge is very tiring and far.So I voted no. 3

[donchua]

Me option 3..

[Josephteo548]

Option 3 seems to be a crowd fav with currently 5 votes!!

[arowana]

option 4

[unseen]

I'll go for option 3 (1 is good too, but seems far... if got lorry fetch us bestest)
reason: I guess there'll be less light contamination... take frm merlion, i scared wait blow out the merlion, or capture insufficient fireworks...

LOL though i dunno where 3 is at all.... i guess it's close to where we were at for the 1st PLUG? as long as not too many trees..

[sinlg]

Oi! So where is everyone meeting for Fireworks Photoshoot?
