I can't believe this. The only pictures i've taken on this trip are group shots and candids. Ok i did a mini walkabout (20 mins?) once, but that's about it. This is gonna be a rant post...
This trip's main purpose isn't photography. It's about talking to relatives and getting fat. Yeah it's a very rare chance to celebrate CNY with my relatives. (the last time i did this my brain wasn't even working). The schedule was tight, as i had to travel to many places to meet people i didn't know existed.
Generally there weren't any cny decorations put up in public. (hey it's Kelantan) Firecrackers were banned, though i'm surprised nobody tried to smuggle them in from the Thai border.
There was a moment of great opportunity though... we were stopped on the road by a bunch of cows crossing. Damn i was behind the wheel, otherwise those cows would find their portraits on my blog.
The camera ended up making loads of group photos. Boring 1-2-3-cheese stuff. Some relatives volunteered to be my model, perhaps trying to flaunt their new clothes. Didn't turn out too bad, but those are too personal to post online. If i get to go back again i'll make sure i bring more flash and strobist stuff.
But photography isn't everything...
