Happy Chinese New Year - Gong Xi Fa Cai
I went down to BSB around 6 am to see the Chinese New Year celebration assuming that Bruneian, Anakbrunei and Ucingitam will be there too. I had to wait about two hours, went to check Jien Chiew but it was closed. I finally decided to stop by at Ignatius Stephen's cafe for breakfast. This was my first outing, a solo outing, after two weeks absence from the group and my first for Chinese New Year. When I arrived at the scene, I was not alone. They were scores of shutterbugs with big zoom lens, some I recognised, whom one of them was my wedding photographer three years ago. One shutterbug I spotted was holding a Hasselblad, a medium format camera. Now what happened when there were lots of us in one area? Everyone wants to take this angle, this shot and I tried my best to avoid that. Imagine this during a bigger event like the upcoming National Day. Anyway I will post up more pics in my slideshow in the next entry. Happy Chinese New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai !!

@Ucingitam, Anakbrunei: Bro thats ok, least I got to capture some marvellous shots of the CNY. Its also my mistake not to check the tagboards for the latest info.
Sorry Bro..
I actually posted that I cant go due to my car got prob. I had to go to tow my car to the workshop.
I also forgot to bring my hand phone that morning. That is why I did not picked up your calls. Took the workshop until late afternoon to fix my car. And then I pengsan :)
ok tu bro, I was about to leave after my breakfast but I saw two veteran shutterbugs with their vest heading towards the Kianggeh area. I decided to make a second visit to the temple and I was on time for the celebration. I had fun going solo for this outing, a new experience lah.
