Basic Photography & The Alumni Exhibition

What a long day!! As I mentioned today in class, you can download today's slides here --> Click me!!

After the photog lessons, Eunice, Chin Chye and I went to the photog room to prepare for the Alumni Exhibition that is coming up this Sat.. Among all the exhibitions that we have done, this one probably takes the prize for the highest budget and quality. The frames themselves; from Ikea, costs almost $14 bucks each and that is considered super budget for a frame already (custom frames usually costs over $100 bucks and standard sized wood ones with good workmanship costs around $50).. Unfortunately, because they were budget and off-the-shelf, the cover glass were really dirty and had water marks all over.. So Chin Chye and I painstakingly washed and dried ALL the cover glass by hand. I really feel for the Chinese workers polishing the iPhone glass screens all day long... One good reason not to buy an iPhone NOR the new iPad...:P

Also.. because the glass was budget too... the edges were not buffered and we both got minor cut wounds while washing and drying the cover glass... Ouch!!
We literally poured our sweat and blood into this one...
Yes, so this exhibition, is not just any exhibition; it is a limited edition exhibition; one of the kind with my DNA all over the prints and frames ;) hope you enjoy it... Buy the prints if you like them.. and for those coming to shoot on Saturday, lucky you because you will get to see the exhibition... because it might no longer be there on Monday..
