    Hi guys,

    It's going to happen after all. Kevin of Fish and Fishes aquarium has kindly agreed to host the workshop at his establishment.

    Details as follows:

    Date: Sunday 18 Jan 2004
    Time: 2.30 to 4.30 pm
    Place: Fish & Fishes Aquarium (formerly Ah Hock/Aquaria Pacific)
    Address: 7,Pasir ris Farmway 2 (last unit) - More details on how to get there later.


    As discussed earlier, this workshop is more of an informal gathering for about 10 members to discuss and exchange aquatic photography techniques in a hands-on manner. It will NOT be a structured program.

    Topics for dicussion/sharing would include:

    1. Taking pictures of an aquascape
    2. Simple photo tank setup
    3. Lighting and reflection control
    4. Equipment discussion

    Due to the space constraints, the group cannot be too big. It's going to be an interactive programe which allow all participants to "practice" and immediately share and evaluate the results. I will bring along a laptop with media card access so that we can upload and review our shoot accordingly.

    So far, here is a list of people interested in order of signing up..

    01. wynx
    02. lorba
    03. Nicky
    04. kenneth lim
    05. goondoo
    06. geoffrey - Kana grounded for spring cleaning
    07. fishie.com
    08. mervin
    09. eric kclee - withdrawn
    10. dogcom
    11. finclk
    12. jhseah
    13. kennedy_ng
    14. budak
    15. benetay

    I don't expect everyone will be able to make it, so please confirm your attendance to help us plan the logistics accordingly.

    For those who can't make this session, watch for the next one (if this one turns out well that is ).

    Thanks!

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    Hello, sorry I have to drop out. Going back to Malaysia for CNY. Didn't expect it to be so near to CNY. Thanks for the effort though, will be interested in the next session if there is any.

    How to find Fish and Fishes Aquarium?

    Hi guys,

    Here's how to find the place if you haven't been there before.

    When you turn into Pasir Ris Farmway 2, make a right turn (left turn is a dead end). The first gate on your right is No. 7.


    You can see the blue No 7 sign. It's not very big, but you can probably recognise that there's a green barricade/railing. Walk towards the blue shed where the blue van is.


    From there, you will see another blue shed. Walk towards the end of the blue shed on the right, where you can see the OASE flag. From there, turn right.


    From here, you can see 2 doors, both leads to Fish & Fishes Aquarium.


    When you enter the shed, you will see a room at the end of the shed. Tell the folks there that you are there for AQ's photography workshop and they'll let you into this room..


    This is where we will have a bit of fun for the next 2 hours from 2.30 on 18 Jan.

    For those driving, you may have to park outside the gate and walk in. For those taking public transport, there's a shuttle bus from Pasir Ris MRT to No.35, Pasir Ris Farmway 2, which is just next no No. 7. I'm not sure of the frequency, perhaps someone else can advise on this point. DO NOT take the shuttle bus to Mainland Fish Farm, that's a different part of Lorong Harlus.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    Hi ckll,

    Registration was open from 09 Jan to all forumers. The previoius list in the other thread was just an indication of interest.

    Tentatively, I have planned for 10 members due to space constraint. If you are interested. Put your name in and I'll push it up if someone drops out due to Lunar New Year preparation etc. You can PM me your contact if you would like to be informed by SMS.

    If not, there should be a write up after the session which you can follow. Or, share your current difficulties on AQ and we'll try to help you specifically with that problem on hand.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?
