Pentax Mar Outing - 15Mar "Old places of Worship" - Please Post Your Photos Here...


Most photos were just quick snaps, but you got the idea what we've seen on the day.

I'll end with this interesting bike and the happy self-entertaining rider:

Thanks Richard :) The lunch is really good, I'm sure I'd go there again for some Japanese noodles, plus the free eggs ;)

Yar man!
That ramen was real good.
It lasted me well into the evening. :D




Nice shot JK. B&W works great in such a cloudy day.

Thanks.



First time seeing a National flag inside a Church, they even sang our National Anthem as their final song :D

Gotta say it surprised me.
Its a first time I've heard/seen it being sung in a Church.

Too bad about the mass, but the atmosphere with the hymns was real nice.
 

Some more photos from me.
I used A50/2; M20/4 and a newly acquired Samyang 14/2.8.
Liked the setup except for the lack of a long lens to shoot those stained glass and statues that were higher up.

Nice photos from all bro's! Look like I missed one more fun outing but too bad, traveling quite often these days! Keep the photos flow, all.

I thought Pentax Outing was on Saturday, blur, but went on solo shoot of the theme since I was there anyway.
My contributions outdoor with CPL filter for the blue skies.

Lovely angle.​
 


Maghain Aboth Synagogue by jenkwang, on Flickr

Too bad politics and no U-turn syndrome had to rear its ugly head at this site.
I wouldn't even post a pict of this place (not too unique photographically for me) if they hadn't asked me not to :D

Its plain stupid to me over this irrational fear of photos being taken of such places.
Firstly, its easily available on the internet.
I just typed "Singapore Synagogue" and its the first on the search.
Secondly, there are just so many mediums of capture (many covet ways) that anyone with bad intent can get more and better picts.
Thirdly, I think an attitude of openness brings better understanding than a "shoo shoo... " response.
"This is my house, this is what we do here, do look around" can bring much better understanding than " No No Bo; Go away"

Thanks to all who came for the outing, good to see some old and new friends there. We sure had some chitchat and shooting fun. The walk was nice, the food was fantastic.

Anyway, please post your photos here as usual, and let the fun continue.

The group photos are so nice!
 

Too bad no blue skies. (Its good again today.... )

But great that I got to catch up with Dennis and some of the other folks.


One pict for now.
That silly Windows update slowed my PC to a crawl until I fixed it in the night.
