EOS X-perience

For those who are interested.... :)

Post Canon Photo Marathon 2012

After the Canon PhotoMarathon X, I gladly announce that we won :D

The Prizes/Freebies are...

• $5
• Buddy meal & rancher meal KFC vouchers
• T-shirts
• 2 Energizer lithium batteries
• Epicentre vouchers
• A $70 camera strap
• Pocket calculator
• Red Bull drinks
• FUN, JOY & LAUGHTER
• and most importantly the EXPERIENCE that we gain while trying to complete the theme they gave us

Although we understand the theme but it was !@#$% difficult to convey it into a picture, we tried our best and produce some ACCEPTABLE works. It was a disadvantage for us as we had to take PUBLIC VEHICLE (hint, hint) and it crack our brains trying to think of something and to execute it. This experience pushes us to think out of the box and to do what normally we won't and dare to do. To me, everyone is a winner trying and completing the given task. Good job everyone :D Now, I present u the winning shot without Jin Lim :P

Signing off,
Clive
