Sick I was, but still present to you : My Sunrise and IR Photos

New Year is such as happy and fun time, no need to work and can go around visiting relatives and friends. As for me, I did most of my visiting on the first day of the Lunar New Year (29th Jan 2006, Sunday). Actually, I wasn't feeling well by the end of that day and feel sick that night and still didn't get any better by the second day (30th Jan 2006). So I visit the clinic near my house which by right shouldn't charge me a single cent because this clinic was under my company's medical scheme, but because it was still Chinese New Year, the clinic charges me SGD$35 for consultation.

Anyway, I taken the medication and had an early night yesterday and thought of sleeping throughout till this morning until 8am or 9am, but instead, I woke up at 5am. I think the medicine works as I feel better already. Since I am up already at such an early hour, I thought of going to Changi Beach to take some Sunrise photos. It has always been one of those to do things that always slip by because of procrastination. So I get up, wash up and get my equipment and ready to left, but then a great dilemma strike me… Should I or should I not bring my tripod? After my deliberation and consideration, I decide not to bring it because I only thought of exploring to see if Changi will be a great place to shoot photographs, if it is good, I will go back again with all the appropriate gears some other time.

Anyway, I miss a bus but still managed to reach Changi Beach Park before sunrise, just to share a couple that I took this morning.





After that, I went home to process my photos. Seeing that the weather is such a sport today, I decide to grab my tripod down to nearby to test out some IR Photography. Anyway, the picture didn't turn up to my expectation as the sky is quite cloudy or maybe my White Balance (WB) is wrong. Oh well, I will try harder next time.
