Singapore celebrates her 45th Birthday this year. 2010 is an exciting year for Singapore as she host the first Youth Olympic Game (YOG) in the world. As well as the 3rd Formula 1 night race. These 2 events have help to create huge awareness about Singapore. This year I have the chance to shoot some fireworks from the Marina Reservoir(One of the YOG venue). This place is out of bounce to public and hence, I get to shoot in comfort without the crowd.
Had a chance to shoot at the SEACON Junior Gymnastics Championships. This is my first attempt to shoot gymnastics. I went there only with one lens, that is the 200F2. It is a great challenge as 200mm is a bit tight to capture routines performed by the gymnast. I only begin to get the hang of shooting this sport after about 1hr moving around the arena. Singapore did well in this Championship and manage to win the top 3 awards for the Junior Womans competition.
On the 3rd of June, 22 students and 3 teachers from Paya Lebar Methodist Girls’ School went to Phnom Penh, Cambodia for a service-learning trip. The students went to a child care centre 1.5hr drive away from Phnom Penh. This centre is managed by a volunteer from Full Gospel Assembly (FGA) know as Mr. Sonny Foo. During their service-learning phase, they also visited some poor villager’s home to give them rice, oil and some preserved food. After the service-learning phase, the students had a chance to visit a few places in Cambodia as part of their cultural immersion programme.
