Brother john you come got guide! Good uh! Sadly i only have 2 sheets of Shanghai 100 left, will be using roll film instead

The crop = siaan half

Maybe doing some 35mm. Its been gathering dust ever since i got my speed graphic

 

[zguy]

Last Sunday we learnt that mosquitoes are abundant there so insect repellent is important. i suggest covered shoes, long pants and maybe long sleeve shirt. Covered shoes will allow you to walk into the above ankle deep grass if you want to shoot close up of some of the tombstones.

 

[Nikkornos]

Thanks Zguy for the highlights. Slippers are big no no :nono:
Bring OFF! and also wear track shoes. Water bottle/tower also important.

In general, the tracks are hidden by the grass. SPI has marked out many tombs and the paths are there.
No need to do commando style bashing, but you never know.

My last trip my kid wacked over 8Gb of pictures. Still no time to sort out yet.
If you have a 120 roll film back, it is a good idea to bring one.

Due to monotone of the location, shooting B&W is highly recommended. Anything ASA100-400 will be fine.
Use a green filter to turn the leaves white, and let the head stones stand out.

i always love this kind of highlight among sea of shadows. But still too wide despite using 210mm. Hard to move in nearer due to terrain. will look out for such lighting again this sunday.

I have one location to recommend. It is the first lot near the main entrance car park. There are a few trees standing out of the head stones.

 

[Shadowleong]

Guys take note its sunday

 

[lualua]

My permit has been granted. I suspect the light will be nicer earlier in the morning. Anyone game to start at 7 instead of 730?
