An evening shot taken at the Malayan Railway Track beside KAP.
I wanted to compose a picture of a railway track with barren land on one side
and boundless grassland in abundance on the other.
For the latter, I went to botanical gardens to take some shots.
I later dropped this idea when lighting conditions weren't
the best, the morning I went back to the track.

While I was exploring more railway tracks along
the stretch of bt panjang all the way to woodlands,
I discovered sungei kadut - an area which largely houses the
building and construction industry.

A row of bright yellow bulldozers lined neatly in place
caught my attention and I decided to attempt this assignment with this:


Usually, when we see bulldozers, there's just one of them covered
in mud and dirt, hard at work, but I thought it was quite refreshing
to see all of them all neatly placed on one row with their yellow paint
still very much bright and alluring.
I played with the saturation a little to accentuate this. And the class
commented that they loved the bright colours too.
I thought this suited the theme as well, as it came across to me
as though it was the day after work and all
these machines were taking a rest from all the sweat and toil.

I soon realised at lab, that I misunderstood the objectives of the assignment
when Mr. Reddy posed us this qn:
"Can this be taken with just one shot?"

I thought we were supposed to create a seamless photo-montage of which
I tried to fit every piece accurately like a jig-saw puzzle.
Man.

I will attempt a re-shoot sometime later this week,
perhaps after the creep assignment.

The two best pieces of work which I was very impressed with
were Jia Lin's and Ivy's.
I think they grasped the concept very well and
I fell in love with both pictures the min I laid eyes on them.
I'd rate Jia Lin's 90 and Ivy's 95.
For Jia Lin, I'd say it's her best piece of work so far, aesthetically.
It's very well composed and has an interesting perspective.
I never thought I could see Chinatown in such a manner.
But, in my opinion, it didnt successfuly expressed the theme well.
Conversely, I thought Ivy gave more
thought into it and better portrayed the theme: The Day After.
She did well in the placement of the different angled-planes and
successfully made me want to escape into the scene.

As for my self-assessment, I'd put it up once I'm done with
moi reshoot. (Patience is a virtue :p)

:p I haven't managed to find the time to do a a worthy piece.
So based on the first piece, I'd give myself a 65.
