Just read about a huge event Canon is hosting this October 18th!
It's a photomarathon competition that requires all participants to go out and capture and submit photos in the same day and complete the assignments tasked to them within 3 hours per category..!
I'm looking for a group of people who want to join me on this 'adventure' in a hunt to capture the perfect photo! ;)

Haha, originally I planned to participate as well but alas, I've a wedding assignment to attend to.
You have lotsa fun !

Have you seen the rules :
http://photomarathon.canon-asia.com/terms.htmlJust read rule no.7, if you win then you must bring your own camera. What happened if they find you don't use Canon ? Too bad I only have one so can't lend you.
Are you sure want to take me with you ? My skill is at level of the Apprentice :rolleyes:
Isaac - October 11, 2008 09:14 AM (GMT)
I don't think that should be a problem Master Jeff..
Following the competition rule #2 for the Photomarathon, it says that participants may use any digital camera to shoot.
I believe that if they're going to allow this, then the Photo Clinic shouldn't be any different..
Haha, I haven't seen any of your pictures before so for all I know you might already be more pro than all of us combined.. :o

This sounds interesting =).. Isaac, izzit a team event? I can't find any information on that in the website. The registration form online looks like it's a singles event.
I'm available on 18 Oct Sunday to join you. Butz.. I might be a burden to your team :unsure:
Isaac - October 11, 2008 02:19 PM (GMT)
It's not a team event, but it'd be more interesting to have friends to join you!
Besides, it's not about winning.. it's about learning new things and having fun!
Since you're free just drop me your number or something on MSN? I'll try to get a few more people then we can all register together ;)

Think Master Jeff too pro to join us liao la.. :lol:
Jeff - October 12, 2008 04:38 PM (GMT)
:o don't say like that
Maybe you won't believe me, when taking pictures with many people make me under pressure,
If I was under pressure, the result won't be as good as when I am hunting alone. This has already happened several times.
Still don't know why :unsure:

That's cos u subconsciously compare urself with others. This is human nature. We tend to give ourselves this pressure in the unhealthy way, resulting in fear of not being able to perform. Instead, use this pressure in a positive manner i.e. tell urself that if they can do it, so can I. (Afterall if Yan can cook, so can u! :lol: )
Have fun !

Jeff - October 14, 2008 04:46 PM (GMT)
9 hours shooting if too tough for an old man like me
Give priority first to the young one ;)
Isaac - October 15, 2008 02:14 AM (GMT)
How old are you anyway? :D
Older than Jeff2?
Jeff - October 16, 2008 12:21 AM (GMT)

That's still very young la, master Jeff.. ;)
Jeff - October 17, 2008 12:52 AM (GMT)
But you know, I have teenage spirit, look like sweet seventeen boy B)
Ha..ha just kidding, roughly I am in the same age with Modesta ;)
Jupiter - October 20, 2008 01:13 AM (GMT)
Issac,
How was the outing?
Jeff - October 20, 2008 02:40 PM (GMT)
Yes, how was that? :wacko:
Isaac - October 20, 2008 02:45 PM (GMT)
The outing was great! But tiring, and disappointing. 80% of the locations we wandered off to were horrible..
Also, I think the judges should get relieved of their jobs because they're not very good at being judges!
I've written all about it on my photoblog.. you can read it there. :)
Other than that, it was a load of fun hanging out with Darry and my other friend! Shooting with company is always a delightful feeling ^_^

Yes, I read that other people were also wasting their time wandering around.
But at least you have one life time experience you won't forget ;)

I'm starting to think that a 24-70mm F2.8 lens is going to come in very handy when I'm shooting street photos.. I'm deliberating on whether I need a 24-70 or a 12-24 more now.. :lol:
Because I had some problems getting proper photos with my kit lens.. :)

Previously I had also considered about choosing between 24-70 f/2.8, but after considering the weight, I think the lens is not for me ;)
Kit lens ? :blink:
