The past few days have been quite hectic, rushing from one event to the other. I wanted to collapse in fatigue during lunch today. But I've been enjoying it all. Starry starry night, going out with MG classmates, taking photos for events, even doing the accounts for photog! HAHA. It tallieed. I love the word tally.

Anyway, cheers to Vera's first phototaking spree! It's something I've always been interested in, but time constrains me from afar, so I can only envy and mourn as WanXiang fills her blog with spectacular photoshop-edited photos. Thank God I was elected treasurer for photography club, even though it was only my third club meeting.

The below are photos I took for Arts Fest, and please try to bear with the quality, taking into consideration this is only the second time I'm using a DS- (something I forgot the name haha), so I'm fully qualified as a amateur photographer. All photos of kids previously were spontaneously taken by my phone camera, reflecting on the spur-of-the-moment-oh-that-child-is-too-cute moments!

This gives a whole new meaning to the word "raptured"

I was very interested in the guy in the middle, look at the ferocity of his expression.

People who have tried taking photographs of dancers know that it is a futile attempt without a fast shutter speed and a superior lens. I was tearing our my hair trying to get a proper focussed picture of them. Literally.

This is one of my favourite photos. HAHA. Oh gosh, look at the intensity of her posture, her facial features. SORRY MARISSA! My fingers are shaking even as I type this out, because I know mars is going to hang me upside down, dangle my entrails, pluck out my hair one by one, like you pluck feathers from a helpless trussed-up chicken, and then send me in her mothership to Mars. I see my life flashing before my eyes...

I just really liked the lighting and position of this sexy guitar.

Oddly, this picture reminded me of the holy star over Bethlehem. The problem was trying to find a spot for the camera to focus. It would be nicer if the light was a little off to the side though.

YAY. Haha. I am loving photographic society. : ))))
