Inspired

The decision to abandon lessons and head to SMU for the photography talk last friday was probably the best I've made in a while. Not because it's an excellent reason to skip some crap chinaman lectures, but for what was gained in that few hours.

The speakers that day were Tay Kay Chin, Darren Soh, Wong May-Ee, Ken Seet and Samuel Seow.. All reputable photographers in Singapore except for the latter who's a lawyer and shared some stuff on copyrights and such.

All the speakers exceeded their allocated time, but not that the audience mind. Each shared their experiences on the job and gave valuable insights. And there were of course the photographs. Lots of them, all great shots. Particularly those in Ken Seet's signature b/w style. The photos practically stunned the whole hall into silence, punctuated only by occasional respectfully muted coughs.

oh brilliant.
