Default Have you seen the performance at Raffles City?

Think it's great! Lots of dancing, singing and Chinese instruments at play....

Here're some shots I took.... the show is different from the one I saw yesterday (without the 602). There will be a brand new series starting on 27 Jan to 16 Feb.

it's my monitor which is dying.

just kidding (monitor is really blurring though). pics are not "post-sharpened". most are just resized, maintaining the colors. Are the humans "orangy"?

Yup, a bit. Auto White Balance?

Thanks

Nope. Have set a custom white balance.... but that's set back home (under fluorescent light) with my flash. Guess it's better to set one at the place of use

Oh definitely. Custom WB should always be set on-location. No wonder the colours off lar.

went pass today and got some more pics.... actually wanted to take pics of the Fujian dance troupe but it's the same performers as last Friday..... show is different though and I still find it very entertaining. Hope you like the pics.





This guy's blowing a mini flute, the length of a little finger!




btw, do the people still look orangy?

Seems better to me, also these new shots are sharper and somehow better focused. Flash is slightly hot on the 3rd shot though, but overall much better image quality on this shoot. There was better variety in terms of composition on ur first attempt though!
