finally have been released from my sat commitments pretty much
someone mentioned sat, can't remember morning or afternoon
should be free for these two dates

so let's discuss location and timing!
 

I would vote 15th. Cos I think 8th is school hols....
So wherever we go, gonna have lots of kids running amok...
 

I'm ok with any Saturday, just so long as it doesn't go beyond noon. Suggest a central location like Botanic Gardens.
 

shoot waterfalls (mini ones) at the SBG?

tt's good.. but i can only come after 1pm.. working on a sat too..
 

Will not be able to make it on 8 Sep.
 

hmmm yeah sbg would be pretty good actually, quite a ir friendly location, especially the eco lake side
think we should set it on 15 sep then, afternoon?
 

lking for 2nd hand trade, hope can get my k10d by then:)
 

would love to join, but have yet to have a pentax camera :(...still deciding wat to buy :dunno:...anyway OT abit, can anyone advise whether pentax 12-24mm is IR friendly ?? Or any wide lens out there that is IR friendly ?? Planning to get the K100 but dunno wat wide lens to get for IR besides the kit lens. Thanks.
 

kit lens is pretty good for ir already, actually flowerpot
it's ok if you don't have pentax camera, all are welcome
this goes for anyone else reading this
 

same here, not using a pentax but interested at IR outing. 8 Sept is good for me.
 

hey guys, think will be setting it at 15 sep
just right, will definitely be more free then as well
let me know if there are violent objections

some things to discuss leisurely, since it's still a long time away:
1)lunch or no lunch
2)timing (depending on 1 as well)

location would most likely be as what creampuff suggested, sbg is a good central location
maybe if i can find out more info on istana woodneuk before then and you guys are game
we can venture there, it is a very ir-photogenic place
 

So this is where the thread went....
Would prefer a car park friendlier place though... :p
 

So this Sat confirmed? Timing?
Just realised cannot go in the morning...
Need to go JB in the morning with wife.... :|
 

sad..got a important part-time tuition interview on sat.. my only hope to get some pro lens this year.
enjoy urselves!
 

I will be there with my son tomorrow from around 8.30am - 9am onwards. If anyone needs to buzz or sms me - 96861414 (Denis)

Those who are driving to SBG can park along Tyersall Ave or the Botanic Gardens visitor centre nearer Nassim Rd. We can meet either at the visitor centre or for the benefit of those coming in from Holland Rd, outside the Orchid Garden entrance ($5 entry).

Whether taking IR or Macro, a tripod would be a good idea to bring along. Plus memory cards and batteries. See you all there tomorrow.

mine's 96782059, gimme a buzz from 2 pm, i will be there at the tanglin entrance (coming by orchard mrt)
 

Here's a few variations of a shot. Think the first one should be the better one.

looking good!

except for the last one, suddenly got funny streak, perhaps not so obvious in first two, seems like it's there
does look like the lens you're using, can't remember which one but it's a pancake, think 43mm or something? is ir friendly :thumbsup:

all of them are fine, actually, ir is after all subject to personal interpretation
you seem to be getting better results than snowy, i wonder why

can use shadow/highlight recovery tool in pscs2 to bring out the skies under highlights =)
cheers!
