23.07.2011 – Fireworks

Finally managed to take some photos of the fireworks for NDP Preview yesterday evening! Meet up with Zu Ming and his wife, Ying Ying, for the session.

It’s really amazing how Facebook connects people. In case you don’t know who is he, Zu Ming is my ex-secondary school friend whom I never spoke with during those times. It’s until recently I added him in Facebook and we started talking about photography and there we go, meet up for the first time! Really can’t imagine how did it happen!

Anyways, his friends was already at One Fullerton Starbucks to standby, and we went there to meet his friends. And the fireworks are really pretty! Makes me a happy girl, and, finally I got to know the correct mode for the photo shoot. Zu Ming was telling me about the “Bulb” mode, and I was  like, ‘got such mode ah?’. Totally embarrassing. So one of his friends helped me with it. So I set my shutter speed to 10, ISO to 100 with f/11. The fireworks are not full because I was too near and it was too late for me to shift to somewhere else. And I hope to go down for another fireworks shot this weekend! And hopes that it will turn out better. =]

Here are some of my better shots for that day. Please give me some advice or remarks so I can do it better! =]

Spree!

I never thought that trying out 15 dresses in one go can be so tiring.

Not kidding. I was trying out the dresses one after another after the 5th piece, and I can feel the tireness. Spent almost $190 (including shipping fee) for the dresses! Dividing among, them it’s about $15.90 per piece! Dirty cheap, of course buying from BKK will be even more cheaper! I shall post the pictures of my dresses soon. LOL

Meet ups and my new love Instax Mini 50S

Meant to update this post like 2 weeks ago and I was busy (with I don’t know what), thus updating it today (finally). We had BBQ 2 weeks ago for Shun Jie‘s first book out!

Chin chow for dessert.

My new love! Instax Mini 50S. Dearest bought it for me.. I asked him why suddenly buy for me, he say he got the sudden ‘urge’ to buy for me. I say “Great! I hope he will continue to have such ‘urge’ to buy things for me.” LOL!
