Anyway, ended 2011 with a bang (or should i say a click since we are photographers.......heh), 10 J1s of 2011 and 2 J2s of 2011 went to Cambodia together with Ms Koh, Mr Cheng under the guidance of Mr Triston Yeo an Mr Lionel Lim!!!
Was quite an experience for most of us as it was our first time going overseas, venturing unchartered lands just for photography! But thank goodness we had the privilege of Mr Triston Yeo to guide us along as well as serving us a slice of the Cambodian pie.
Not gonna bore you guys with a detailed run down of the trip (unless you guys want too....), but all in all it was a great, great, great, fantabulously, great eye opening and awakening for us. The trip, though daunting with its tight schedules and really tiring, was all worth it due to the increased proficiency we obtained and the various new techniques we acquired from the master themselves, Mr Triston Yeo and Mr Lionel Lim! It was really a great honour to have had his guidance! Thank you once again Mr Triston Yeo and Mr Lionel Lim!
But other than just the photographic aspects, it was a great awakening for the 10 of us as we get to see a side of life we couldn't even dream of seeing in Singapore. Kids roaming around for food, being happy with just obtaining a toothbrush as a present. Throwing slippers and just running in circles for entertainment instead of the usual iPhone apps and latest gadgets we, Singaporeans, fiddle with in the MRT or bus. It really thought us how to appreciate things, and people, better and it really bonded us alot through this trip. Our poor, cute little Gallery Director Valerie Tan even cried during the last night presentation.
Anyway, enough of the self reflections, here are some of the photos we are showcasing currently in school as part of our Exhibition showcasing our Cambodian Experience! Just from a few of us, will be posting more of the photos once i get 'em ya! Enjoy! :)
