I was late for SOY cosplay...

[sprintist]

Went down after school which was 5pm plus...most of the cosplayers were leaving, have left and preparing to leave.. urgh..So i decided to just salvage whatever shots that I have, decided not to use flash but ambient lighting

I'm have zero knowledge in any of the cosplayer's name, with regards to their post processing, i just edited quickly what i felt best suited that character and their attire. Hope it goes down well with you guys too!

manage to salvage a few who stayed back to shoot. Pictures below posted are not in sequential order of shoot... =p

Great to see you there too bro qING!~

Here are some of the shots taken over at ngee ann poly for your C&C

hmm. some very nice portraits. Good work. You got some good shots. You dont have to downplay the fact that you were late so that the expectations were lowered.

i was feeling alittle pity that I missed out alot of action and other characters, in fact when I reached, many of them were walking down the road and i thought it was already fully over.

Thanks alot jacephoto!

Thanks once again to you and your friend! nxt time got cosplay i better go early haha

Nice series bro, even when you're late. I like pic #1 and #5 especially. Too bad #2 had a distracting tree trunk on the left.

[Youhong]

Great shots!

[firewall]

#3 seems rathered cluttered, maybe you could consider to adjust the background in order for the people to stand out more from the picture. I personally like #1. Gungho model shot from a good angle which portrays the cosplay character's attitude.

Thanks too, I too found the background too cluttered, i had originally wanted to shoot them full body against the sky. So i should bring them closer to one another ya?

[qING]

I like pic #4 and #5.

I find that pic #4 has very rich color. Is it because you edited it in RAW or because of
D300? qING knows nuts about RAW... ^^'''

For pic #5, the contrast is there. Black colors against white background. I also like the mood of the photo...

Anyway, see u at the next event. You must come with me ah
This time, I will psycho you to come early...

[wildmushrooms]

Loving #1 and #5!! 8D

[Melody-Love]

I like the 1st and 5th!
The colours are rich and sharp, and pleasing to the eyes
