Default Macro shooting in the East

Anyone interested?

Tentative date should be either 19th Jan or 20th Jan. (mornings)
Location should be Pasir Ris park, bigger area and more subjects to find.

If you're interested, pls drop a post here.

Well, your G9 should be able to do pretty well. Or you can try to get a long zoom lens for your DSLR.

Fishing rods? Nah... too much gear to lug around... when I shoot macros, I'd have a bag of gear and a monopod already... no more room for fishing gear. hehe...

Well, about 2 hours or so...

Normally from 10am to about 12 noon... past that, it's a lil too hot and the insects will be too active to shoot easily.

I'm quite interested for the 19th... but can't confirm. Curfew for me is till 11.30am. That's when I have to report in for 'daddy' duties. Haiz.... Let me know if it's on or not. Would certainly hope to meet up.
