Hello everyone, sharing this piece of information to all those who are interested to capture some dragon boating images.

DBS Marina Regatta 2013

The event will take place at Waterfront Promenade at Marina Bay this weekend 18 to 19 May 2013. There will also be a separate Bay Festival held in conjunction with the Regatta on the following week on 24 to 25 May 2013.

Expect more than 130 international and local teams to participate in the dragon boat competition. There will be plenty of good vantage points at the Waterfront Promenade for photographers to get some really good shots.

The Bay Festival is free to the public, where you and your family can participate in watercraft workshops and try your hand at dragon boating, kayaking and sailing for free. There will also be stage games and booth activities such as water games, painting and dumpling fishing. Also, enjoy the food and beverage offering and live music from popular local acts including Electrico and Jack and Rai.

Story Contest

As part of the DBS Marina Regatta 2013 event lineup, there will also be photography contest open to the public at the event.

DBS will pull photos and videos posted on social media platforms including Facebook, Instagram, Vine and Twitter into a video that tells the story of DBS Marina Regatta from different points of view. Simply snap photos and videos and post on Instagram, Twitter and Vine and hashtag #DBSMarinaRegatta2013 and your photos will automatically be captured on DBS Facebook page.

The three contributors with the most voted photos via Facebook will also stand to win a degustation dining experience for two, worth S$600, at Restaurant ANDRE – Singapore’s best restaurant.

Also, the following awards will be given out for:

Most vibrant shot of the festival

I'll try my best to answer any questions that you may have in this thread…

This just in.

DBS organizers will rent a bumboat, carrying up to 40 CS photographers who wishes to go closer to the dragon boat races on Sunday, 2pm sharp. I am helping them to collate a list of CS people interested to get on the bumboat. Because access to the bum boat is located at a restricted area at the event, DBS will need names and contact details in advance. They will refer to this list on CS to give access.

I will share information on where to gather once DBS informs me of it.

Join if you want rather-exclusive close-up opportunities to photograph the dragon boaters in action!

Date: 19th May
Time: 2pm sharp
Location: Promenade
