Back from the Dead

I thought I was dying back then when I posted this post.

But I didn't die.

Though I sold off all my camera equipment in Nov 2011, I bought all back in 2012.

With my newly purchased equipment, I went macro shooting again!

Solo Macro along SengKang River 16 Oct 2011

I always wondered when I drive towards Sengkang along TPE.

How to access the river that TPE cuts across?

I can always see street lamps along the foot path along the river bank.

So late Saturday night/ Sunday morning, I made my way towards Sengkang.

Managed to capture some good macro shots despite the flash extension cable mounting failed on me.

MacRitchie Reservoir 23 March 2011

Another Macro shoot with Alex.
It's good to have a buddy when shooting macro.
Easier to spot out insects and can also assist to pull down branches for a better shot.

So here we were are MacRitchie Reservoir.
There was this particular short cement path that cuts through the undergrowth and links between the main road (Lornie Road) to the reservoir service road.

The footpath, unseen in any maps, is right in the center of the map shown below.

Although it was less than 10-20 meters in length, the amount of big & rare bugs we found there were more than the bugs found at other parts of the reservoir. Overall, it was a good shoot and it gave me the chance to try out my DIY diffuser prototype. It'd be modification of the DIY diffuser on the next shoot that will create the most satisfied lighting I am happy with.
