Abandoned - Forest bashthrough

Today was a trip to multiple stops: Neo Tiew and Istana Woodneuk. Considering the remoteness of these places, careful planning has to be done to ensure the fastest and safest route.

Arrival at Neo Tiew at 8+ in the the morning. Greeting me is a small town that looked much bigger after stepping in. No sign of any massive human activity apart from a contractor carrying out some works nearby alone, and thereafter, leaving the premises, with the whole town to myself.

2 hours exploration and I have then completed exploring nearly every nook and cranny that's worth shooting.

Stopover for brunch at Subway, followed by the next mission to where I had not been able to find Istana Woodneuk for sometime. The right moment came and I decided it's time to go in.

Rainstorm greeted me as I bashed through the forest with my gear man-packed, and after about 10mins of forest navigation without any visible paths, I had come to a hill and there it was. Standing on a hill, carrying its lost glory, while grounds are severely pooled with water in the overgrown weeded-vegetation.

A small group of people were also inside the building when I arrived. Big halls, once grand stairways greeted me when I reached the ground floor.

It took me several rounds before I had complete coverage of the place, before another couple who came, after the sun had emerged from the clouds.

What a beautiful sight despite its ruins.

Mission accomplished. I had covered 2 places within a day and while another place was noticed in Cluny Road, will leave this to another time.

The joy that brings self-satisfaction

I had just did a delivery of prints to a client. Though it wasn't a photobook, those prints certainly does bring about the sparkle in their eyes after seeing them.

What brought me great joy was that they really like what had been produced.

D2X

An acquisition had been done for my 1st pro-model. With photography as my undying burning passion, this has to be the best thing I can get for myself this year.

It's late into the night, so a quick runthrough was done with thoses lenses I have, before wrapping up the end of the week.

The weekend had been most exciting once I wield that camera in my hands and start to make great pictures.

Well, not enough time for me to run through some books I've been on for the past week, but I'll catch them up tonight. Hopefully, more coverage.

Equipments

Been awhile since I did some equipment shopping.

I had been thinking if picking up an older version like the D2X would be a good choice since it's one of those faster models in their array. An ad for a preowned D3S was priced closed to a new set, and that definitely isn't worth considering.

Had discussed with Allen and those single digiter models are the pro series as compared to 3-digiters of semipro series; altogether a different adversary.

At this time, I'm not a publisher yet so it's not time to command a 'studio range pro model'
This morning's mind is especially clear no doubt the rest yesterday was not as full. I had done 6 hours which is still pretty within my normal range.

Networking

wow!

Seems like it's been awhile since I last wrote here....

The past few days had been just busy; busy with post productions, networking with photographers.  It's really great to know a couple of them like Katelyn James; she not just makes great photos, she is gorgeous in person!  Someone I would like to meet up, network and hopefully collaborate with some day.

Seems like the season for weddings in Singapore is more packed towards end of the year, so I have 3 weddings to be done within 2 months.  And I'm just simply excited!

I'm almost quite done with this bulk of my PP; so keep those events coming in!
