Super Import Night 2009

Popped by Super Import Nights with my kakis last weekend. Have not been shooting any portraiture lately due to family matters. It was pouring when we reached Expo. I wanted to snap a few pictures of the drift performance but had to forgo it due to the bad weather. I saw a number of photography kakis snapping away when I entered the exhibition hall.

I still prefer organised shoots to event shoots, mainly due to the fact that I can't direct, pose or have the model's eye contact as I desire. Just bought myself a new photography gadget and hope to use it in one of my shoots soon.

September has been a destructive month for me up till now. First my PC crashed, next my 1 TB external hard disk crashed, followed by my iPod wiped out and my 4GB CF card corrupted. Managed to salvage most of the data and I got an iMac to replace my PC.

Packed the wrong lens for shoot

I was planning to shoot macro today, so I packed all my macro gear and went out. But due to foul weather, I had to postpone the plan. Went to Orchard to meet my wife for dinner. Didn't know that there was a National Lion Dance Championships going on at the Ngee Ann City Civic Plaza.
I didn't want to miss out the action, thus I used my 105mm macro lens (the only lens I had then) which I packed this morning to capture the action.
