== OUTING DETAILS: ==

DATE/TIME: 16th April 2011 Saturday morning, 0630 hrs onwards.

LOCATION: The Promontory at Marina Bay

Objective:
Our objective is to bring the know-how and joy of landscape photography to beginners in photography. We will only open these outings to newbies. Newbies at this outing will be guided by more experienced shooters who will share their knowledge and techniques. They will also try to answer any questions with regards to photography.

Background:
Newbies outing started in April 2009 with the 1st outing at the Marina Barrage. Since then, some of the 'pioneer' attendees have become quite prolific photographers. So all in all, a pretty successful group. Started by ZerocoolAstra, now my turn to organize this one.


THINGS TO BRING:

1) Camera + lens(es) if it's a DSLR. If not, any camera with manual control over shutter speed, aperture, etc.

2) Tripod. This is essential. If you don't want to bring, please don't waste a slot by putting your name down. If you do not have one, you should buy or borrow one.

-----------------

Things you may expect to shoot:
1) Interesting structures in Singapore
2) Reflections of lights on water
3) Morning lights


The format will be some "slightly more experienced" (not necessarily expert, or professional) photographers providing guidance to relative newcomers into photography.

The ratio of Seniors:Newbies will be about 1:4, up to the maximum as stated.
People attending this outing MUST fall into 1 of the above categories. Either you want to share, or you want to learn.
If you are competent, but not confident/willing to share your knowledge, may I kindly request that you only put your name down in the "independent shooters" category.

Our definition of 'Newbie':
- started photography within the past couple of years.
- still feeling confused about setting up the camera for certain shots (eg. what is correct exposure; how to meter; what shooting mode to use, etc).

Our definition of 'Independent Shooter':
- have shot as a Newbie in the past outings
- confident enough to shoot on your own
- must be willing to mingle with others, else you go shoot by yourself, no need to add your name in here.

After shooting for about an hour +, we will break for breakfast, where we will offer a chance for critique of selected shots. This will give people a chance for some immediate feedback into possible 'faults'.
