Photog Group Project
Alright, it's a Sunday and I have to wake up before the Sun rises. Well, I'm meeting my group members - Yi Ting, Monica and Ting Ke - to do our photography group assignment.

Traveled all the way to Commonwealth and million thanks to Ting Ke's dad for driving us there, apologies that we were late too.

When we reached Commonwealth Crescent block 118 (otherwise known as the 16th storeys food centre) , we immediately get down to find the store. Guess what the boss' wife recognised us that we were there for a photography group assignment!

Felt very guilty for getting their way in operating their business, cause they were already so busy and yet we had to stand like right in front of the stall to take the shots. Fortunately, the people there were EXTREMELY FRIENDLY, serious, EXTREMELY. Not only were they very cooperative during the shoots, they even gave suggestions and talked to us as we were taking shots of the various angles! Cool right, rarely get to meet so nice people, so cooperative and friendly.

Then, we requested for the boss to save like 4 bowls of prawn noodles for us to try ( it became 3 after that cause Ting Ke and I shared 1) Nevertheless, the boss took our orders and guess what, he treated us! HE TREATED US TO A BOWL OF PRAWN NOODLES EACH! OMG!

It was already tough for them to make profits out of the noodles, 1 bowl of prawn noodles was selling at $2 only. Yet the boss treated us on his own accord! And, we weren't helping them in their business, we kept getting in their way when we did close - up shots, thus restricting their movements and slowing down their pace of service.

We had great difficulties in panning, it was so hard to get a good one! The toughest was silhouette. No one has an idea on how to take a silhouette shot cause the lightings were not suitable. Meanwhile, we don't see the link on how we can do a silhouette shot on a prawn noodle business. Is like, How to do? What to portray?

Stayed there for around 2 hours, and after taking our photos, we took our final photos with the boss and then went home straight. Home sweet home!!! ^^
