Macro shoot on 10 May

[luenny]

Where do we park the car? At the open carpark?

Hmm ... on second thought, I think I better go public. Don't want to be driving after the trip.

[trident]

Luenny,
So you not driving? Thought of hitching a ride.
You bringing your monopod or tripod?

[rwalker]

If the hot weather and dry spell continue, I think butts in the wild will be greatly affected and reduced...

[trident]

I read that butterflies are sun lovers, so they should out in full force..............

[ranmasatome]

Bring many many many water bottles... i'm going to bring a spray bottle with honey so i can attract my insects...if i go..

Also if you cannot finish your water.. can create a mud pool so the butts come and mud puddle....lol

[hwchoy]

just take off your shirt the butts will come and suck your sweat

[luenny]

Richard,
Don't feel like driving-leh. Don't really know the way and also going to be very tired after the shoot. Anyway, I'll let you know at a nearer date. I'm going to bring my tripod. I find it very useful for bugs that stay still. Let me experiment with different ways of shooting.

[trident]

Luenny,
Ok then I take bus too. I'll bring my tripod if it wasn't so heavy.

[Shadow]

Can we meet at MRT station?

do not know which one is the closest.
2 from NEW BRIDGE RD TER (Tanah Merah MRT)
29 from TAMPINES INT
59 from BISHAN INT
109 from SERANGOON INT

[trident]

Robert,
Closest MRT should be Tampinese MRT.
Take bus 29 from there all the way to Changi Village Interchange.
I am taking bus 59 from Toa Payoh, journey is about 1 hour.

Wish I can join you guys but I've got a meeting to attend at 3pm this Sat. Don't think I've been to that part of Ubin before. May I know how long is the walk from the Jetty to the place? Hope to squeeze in the time... really need a break.

[Shadow]

Probably 10 to 20 mins walk..at a very comfortable pace..

Richard

although butterflies like the Sun, but there is any rain for the past 2 weeks and it is not good for them

[rwalker]

I think we will have a respite. In fact according to the NEA web site, there will be rain for the next three days!

[Simon]

Place: Ubin
Meet at the coffeeshop beside the Le Meridien hotel, opposite the open carpark at 8am

1.) Wynx
2.) Luenny
3.) Richard aka Trident 94778307
4.) Robert aka Shadow
5.) rwalker aka Loke
6.) Simon
7.) Merviso

[Simon]

Some rain will do us good, but beware of the mosquitos. Don't forget to bring your insect repellent.

[trident]

Hope there is rain the next few days. Heard on the radio that rain is expected over a few areas, but apparently not Toa Payoh.
Simon, is there anything we need to bring? Something to entice the butterflies. I read that rotten fruits is good.
