Loving that Round Red Bench

5 May 20114 Comments

Yes, it’s the Red Bench again. One of those round red benches just outside Vivo City, where you’re about to cross over to Sentosa Boardwalk!

Took this shot at about 3pm though, so it was super glary!

Both kids didn’t manage to open their eyes hehe.

But I’m loving this shot!

[I stood on the bench and bent over to take this shot – yep, some people stared at us! What’s that pregnant woman doing, they probably thought =)]

    Hi Natalia,

    Thanks =)

    If you look a little closer, on the lower left corner you can actually see my shadow (yep, the one with one hand on the hip hehe).

    One tip I can share (getting such a shot without having the subject ‘in our shadow’) is to note where the sun is. I took this shot when it was about 3pm, so the sun wasn’t right ‘above’ us. I positioned myself in such a way that when I stood over them, I didn’t block the sunlight. This way, the kids’ faces are ‘well-lit’ ๐Ÿ™‚

    Hope the tip helps … ๐Ÿ™‚

    Happy experimenting!
