A Restrained Week

Yes it is a restrained week. First, Hot Stuff magazine’s “Fast and Furious” drifting show at Sentosa afforded me some few clicks but can’t post much except one ’cause I’m still in the process of selecting pictures. MDSB 2006 aka Most Desired SNAG Babe 2006 at the Ministry of Sound, was a great opportunity to shoot as part of the “official” pool so definitely nothing can be posted from that event, SNAG stands for “Sensual New Age Guy” another breed of glossies in line with FHM, Maxim, Stuff etc. etc.

Sure enough, weekend will not pass without shooting. So here’s the obligatory 3-picture for the weekend.

An encore shoot session at Bukit Batok. An all-available light session. The shoot could have been better with a theme or “assignment” rather than a “wall” or “album” portfolio-collection event. Assignments can vary from something like relationship between human and food or otherwise known as “eating” or indulging gastronomic treats. Assignment defines the usefulness of a photo shoot session. The theme answers the question on why the subject should be really worth taking a shot. Themed photoshoots results in “useful” photographs and not just keepsakes. And “useful” photographs has potential monetary value. Get the drift? One more, I hate the Canon 17-85mm IS, I shall say it’s a very “stupid” lens (no pun intended to those who bought it ), it’s not for me, I really look forward to the new 17-55mm IS.

One of the drifters at Sentosa. Mean machines but we came late, drifting is almost done.

I just realised that people visiting my site usually came from search engines that uses some keywords like “colleen francisca”, “jared odulio camera”, “adidas show”. Ok, if you want some shots of Colleen Francisca or from the Adidas show just post a comment with your email address in this notation: “my_name at domain dot domain_extension || dot country_code” and I’ll see what’s possible.

Crazy Elephant at Clark Quay is one of the only few bars in Singapore with bands that plays Blues music. Blues? Mind you, Singapore is really this “happening” except that patrons are mostly expats and the performers as well.
