I have just bought a 10-22 mm wide angle zoom. I have decided to test it tonight, capturing the Saturday night fever after midnight under the full-moon, and sucking the light from my victims.
Needless to say that Saturday night is serious party time in Singapore. Whether you are an investment banker eager to show your new Ferrari at a posh hotel, an office worker looking for your weekly dose of fun and flirting, or a cool teenager drinking your Baccardi and Red Bull on the concrete with a bunch of friends.
Since I was testing my wde-angle lens I spent more time shooting good figure buildings clad with bright lights rather than the party animals. That said I met a few and it was great fun that they lent themselves to the game.
It was a lot of walking, a lot of perspiration even though it is much cooler at night than during the day, but it was a night full of encounters. I will go hunting photons again on the next full moon, be warned!
