Christmas Carnival at Gardens by The Bay

Well don't be so surprised, I did say I'm going to do this right?  I think by now you'd think I'm on their payroll (which I swear I'm not!!).

Anyway, my next entry will be on Orchard Road's Christmas decorations.  I've been trying to schedule a visit but the weather hasn't been permitting as of late.  And with the strings of crazy incidents in Orchard road (from burning trees, decorations, falling trees and man in a shopping mall and roofs in Hilton) I think I'd really pay attention to the weather.

And oh yeah, I pestered my wife to create a signature for me so I can put them on my photos.  After deliberations we finally decided on "Tri Suka Moto" = Tri likes to take photos.  Sounds Japanese, but really, its Indonesian.  ;)  

Okay, so Gardens by The Bay is in FULL Christmas mood.  I didn't have time to go to the entrance because when we reached the meadow area the bazaar caught the kids' attention and we ended up spending almost 3 hours there.  But the area was really fun and beautifully decorated.

When we arrived the kids were immediately drawn to the large carousel.  While it's not the first time they rode one, it certainly is bigger than the last one they rode and they simply had to go on it.  The cost for each child and accompanying adult was 3 tokens.  And so very quickly we parted with a good $12 there.

Actual Day Wedding Photographer

I hadn't written for quite some time as I was quite busy.  Just last Sunday on 18th Oct I was the actual day photographer for a good friend's wedding reception.  We have known each other from back then in NTU and he's from Surabaya too just like me.  That means we have known each other for a good 15 years now.

I was really somewhat honored that he trusted me to be the photographer for his wedding.  I'm usually a landscape photographer, not much for events.  There was also another university mate covering the wedding so in total there were two photographers and one videographer.  I used my D750 + Tokina 16-28mm and the X-T1 + 55-200mm.
