Fren ... be careful on what you write hor ...

KNIGHT ONG · 1st March 2004

Further to what Goldmember said, we should not jump into conclusion without giving a 2nd thought on the price they charge.

The discounted price are for those who is already a member to the photographic club, SAFRA members paid an annual fees of $18 to the club. This applied to others clubs as well paying an annual subscription to their club or society.

Guest, I presumed he/she is not a members to any of the photo clubs, hence the price is slightly higher.

Hope this will clear up some negative feedback on the high price for Guest.

The seminar includes 2 tea breaks and buffet lunch, quite reasonable.

Yes! I actually attended the talks probably two years(or so) ago at the main Canon office building at Jln Bukit Merah Rd. And it's free of charge. BTW, he's a Canon user & he don't use any filters(only filter to protect the lens, I think?) for taking(I think) all his pictures. That was back than, don't know about now. I will be attending his talks tomorrow, so see you guys & gals there(if you can find me)

. Cheers dude

!And try not to miss it.

Spectrum · 7th March 2004

Anyone of you noticed a guy entered the door with a camera bag at around 9:30am? That's me!

I realized that the speaker(Pro. Li-Yuan) have injured marks on his face today. Probably he hurt himself after since I saw him last Sunday at SAFRA Bukit Merah Photographic Club judging some photo contest. I hope he will get well soon & take good care of himself too. It's our honour to know that at the age of 68, he's still an enthusiastic person in his professional field. Great respect for his perseverance & spirit. Hope to see more of his work the next time round. For good health & all best wishes for the master. Cheers & keep on shooting with thought!
