Nice, smooth bokeh for alll the pics.

DOF a bit shallow but it's really difficult to get enough at a higher magnification.. and a bit grainy but not bad.

Did you use G2? how many stacked filters?

ahh... khatib bongsu... a nice army training area ... *opps*

Nice shots though a little blown out on the exposure but good macros!

Hi all,

I used Canon PowerShot G2 with Hoya +4 filters. Can't remember which of those pics I used 2 of such filters... usually set to Av priority, around f8 I guess...some of those movements due to wind etc, and as you know, can't get these guys to keep still...

The sad thing is that the Govt may be damming up the entire place for a reserviour, thus all these will be gone soon... Nature Society Singapore is trying their best to impact a change in that decision...

So go there and capture some pics before everything goes under water.
