[Gerald Lam CK]

Any newbies like me or experts who dont mind sharing their knowledge with newbies keen to join me for a night of photography this sunday?

I just had my 450D two months ago and looking forward to night photography (i'm also very interested in moon shots and lightning shots!).

Interested just reply to this thread? Then i can organise. Thanks. Most probably meet 7pm at marina mrt station.

Regards
Gerald

remember!! If you have a tripod, use iso 100 and f 10 to 16 for landscape night shots. A good to have thing would be a shutter release as you dont have to use the timer on your camera to shoot. =)

Actually have you guys consider a pre-dawn shoot instead? IMHO I think its much better than the night scene. :think:

TS, the best time to do 'night' photography is actually to shoot long exposures with some evening light still in the sky. The sunset starts at 7:05pm so you want to be there maybe 15-30 minutes before 7pm to setup your equipment and do some test shots.

One more thing to note. The haze thing is back in singapore. So might not be the best to shoot landscapes recently. You see all the old-bird landscape photographers here in CS are all quiet these few days.

Also Anson is right. Dawn at the barrage is excellent. very beautiful there and not to mention quiet and peaceful. evenings on sat or sun, the barrage is a mad-house.

Here are some of my shots of Barrage @ dawn.
