Pentax/Ricoh September 2012 outing: Admiralty Park on 15 Sept. 2012

[fengwei]

I'm still unclear about the meeting point if I am not going to the Woodlands Waterfront for the sunrise shoot.

So for macro only shooters, where is the meeting place and time?
Makan or no makan first? (I'd suggest at most a quick coffee only to save time and then a longer brunch/kopi session later after the macro shoot )

We go for a quick breakfast or coffee first. Any Kopitiam around there to suggest?

Otherwise probably meetup at end where is closer to the mrt or bus stop?

Interested to join in but I don't have a Pentax body at the moment. Please don't mind me if I appear with my Nex5 instead. Will try out the K30 if one is available at the outing...

I'd bring my K30

 

[seefei]

Actually I also don't know the place. Anyone can put up a map again?

 

[PhilipKr35]

Is there any bus stop for meeting point? Hope to make my first maiden meet with teachers

Wah, you got good Macro 90mm ,
Bus guide says 903, alight at Hlh Tyre and Battery bus stop, its the stop after passing Republic poly.
everything from iPhone apps.

Never been to the place, need some confirmation of where to meet

1. sunrise - North Gate car park , nearer the waterfront ?

2. macro 7am breakfast where ?

3. South Entrance got car park ?

the nearest entrance from MRT is south entrance (republic polytechnic), there's only subway and 7-11 nearby that entrance IIRC

carpark is at west entrance

Looking at the map, it looks quite far, take bus 903 from Woodlands interchange

Don't forget to bring mosquitoes repellent if venture to wooded areas.
As far as I remember, it's free parking at North entrance.
Coupon parking at Water Front.

Sorry to hear that... I can take you along if you can get up early for the sunrise

Thanks!! What time should I wait for you? I can get up early.

 

[fengwei]

Thanks!! What time should I wait for you? I can get up early.

5:30 to 5:45am. I'll let you know when I'm on the way.

 

[fengwei]

Okay guys, any place to sit down for a quick breakfast/coffee after the sunrise and wait for the others to come for the macro outing? I don't know that place well, but hopefully it's somewhere near between or close to both the Woodlands Waterfront and Admiralty Park so we don't need to drive around after the sunrise shoot.

Only can think of Woodlands foodcentre.
Then drive to Waterfront, its not too far away.
I been there by car n on bicycle via park connector.

Good suggestion. Can't think of anything else at the moment also

 

[istDeS]

Not familiar with that place but maybe can try republic poly since there are quite a few foodcourts inside. The only thing is currently it is their vacation so not sure only certain foodcourts are open or all are open.
