NDP 2009 PhotoShoot

2009-08-16T10:41:00.000-07:00

National Day 2009 @ Marina

I went there with the PVSIG team from Ngee Ann Poly to have our photo shoot.

People are actually reachinh way before the show start jus to book the place, we reach there ard 4 plus the esplanade's bridge was like full with people. But we still manage to book a place to take our photos..

look how crowded it was...

this is andy one of my members in PVSIG..

Kit from PVSIG, she is actually more to Videography but haha, she's the incharge for this event.

Ling Yi our PVSIG vice chair..

The Singapore flyer~

The Navy team, actually standing at the bridge is more fun than getting the tiks for the national day, because mostly the show will passby us first, like the planes and boats..

This was taken way before the show when they were preparing~

The show started, ltr on there was this loud boom, it was the "terrorist" planting bomb in our territories, you can see th navy team chasing the "terrorist", and ltr on you can see the navy firing at the "terrorist's" boat and it caught fire.

This is the boat chasing and firing at the "terrorist's" boat..

this helipcoter actually fetch the diver to dive into the water to deactivate the mines..

The police coast guard, they were the people that stop those invaders from coming in to singapore illegally.

Here comes the singapore flag..and there goes the national song..

With the president walking down the march troop there is firing at the sea, and i manage to catch this beautiful firing shot. A combination of timing.

It's a boat that are hanging with those lighted balloons..

A more zoom in one..

Wat a beautiful scene right? this is taken by me, really me.. haha.. not some postcard photo.. haha.. (:

Fireworks!!!!!

The fireworks is really infront of me, and it jus explodes and it's so beautiful, it lighten up the whole sky, it's worth dieing for it. (:

Age:18
Occupation:Student
Institution:Ite College Central [Bishan]
Title: Protect the Greenery
Description: Though of clearing forest, clearing the greenery for purpose like building Houses, high rised building and more, the government is still trying their best to protect the greenery. Given a chance to get close with the greenery isn't a bad thing. With the help of many volunteers, nature lovers still get to have such views. Getting close with the greenery with the climate changing wasn't bad idea afterall. As they say take nothing except pictures, leave nothing but footprints, kill nothing but time.

The 1st photo was disqualify because the resolution was not high enough..hmm..today learn alot of stuff.. like the way photo has to be take.. the way the resolution may be a problem.. hmm.. anyway hope this photo will be able to make it.

Title: Burning Kills Greenery
Description: Fire give us light, it protect us from the cold but it can also harm us. A big flame normally start small, and it kills. Burning kills greenery. The forest that we used to have, the greenery that was side by side with us, giving us the greenery environment were all gone, what left was replaced with high rise building, shopping centre and more. The social climate change causes the extinction of Greenery, the extinction of forest, the extinction of the world.

This is the photo i submitted for the climate change competition hold by NUS.. hmm..climate change..the social climate change that causes the greenery to be in extinction..
