Hi All,

It's holiday season, let's have some shooting fun again. Please tell us your suggestions for this coming outing. Sorry date has to be 17 Dec 'cause I won't be able to make it on 4th or 10th, and 24th is X'mas eve ...

It rains pretty much every afternoon nowadays, but morning always good weather. I guess we better go for a morning outing.

Here are a few suggestions:
1. Morning sunrise at Changi Beach, then Pulau Ubin for some exercise.
2. Sunrise at some other places (suggestions?).
3. Macros at Botanic Garden (the new Healing Garden is a pretty nice place to start, and it's near the visitor center) in the morning.
4. ...
 

I will be going to DIY bokeh shoot on 17th Dec night with another group of friends...
 

Sunrise is always good for me .

Boss if we going changi beach , I suggest changi cp6

The previous beach we went earlier this yr just got too limited foreground for a big group like us :)

I try to bring along "little simon" and "mrs simon" along to ubin this round
 

My choice:
1. Morning sunrise at Changi Beach, then Pulau Ubin for some exercise.
2. Macros at Botanic Garden
 

My suggestion for itinerary

Easy sunrise (Esplanade). So much easier for everyone to reach the place by 6.30-6.45am.
1 hr Kopi/Breakfast session
Botanical gardens (nature and macros) or Orchard Rd (streets)
 

CP6 will also be hard if there is a large group, you might end up getting in each other's frames...

Esplanade not so bad, can spread out to shoot Merlion, Shenton Way, etc. Alternatively Gardens by the Bay? Not so convenient though, and you will not be catching the colors, only the light.
 

suggestion: jap/chinese garden for sunrise? can do macro/birding too there
 

Hi guys been such sometimes not been able to join u guys..
hope you guys doing lot of fun...
 

Who is scare of rain when we have k5 . Oo but I don't have wr lens . Crap . Sunrise At CBd will be fun with macro at bot garden
 

I might be interested if it's at MBS sunrise + Botanic garden. ;p
 

After changi sunset can go SIN 2011 at Expo

I like this idea as well. but will miss this one. will be in HK on Dec. 17. You guys enjoy!
 

I prefer sunrise at Esplanade bah.. otherwise if at CP, i can't even make it if i took the 1st train (staying at boon lay) :(
 

I just entered the Pentax family and going to join you guys this time. Will definitely go if morning esplanade, followed by botanic garden. Want to learn some techniques on macro, especially on lighting. :)
 

vote one for macro at botanic garden, macro lens has been in dry box quite some time
