Happy Lunar New Year minna-san! ! ! May you readers have an enjoyable holidays ahead and happy ang bao gathering! ! !

For the first time, I tried something different for this CNY countdown Instead of staying put @ home, I went down to Marina for the fireworks display. Goodness me, surrounding me was not the usual masses of avid shutter-bugs with their DSLRs, instead it was hordes of foreign workers, mostly from China. Goodness me, either they ARE dumb or loose screws, messing around even though they are just 1 mis-step away from dropping into the dark waters beneath. And of course, so the 'considerate' to those shutter-bugs by moving around like monkeys, blocking the views or even coming down to knocking down the tripods. Damned, I know that being the CNY, I shouldn't be saying all these, but ZzZ, I can't keep it shut, so just vent it out here. . .anyway, still manage to grab quite a couple of shots during the display. Yes, I DO really need a DSLR, though my T20 is doing fine this early morning, but the difference is quite obvious la, since the T20 is just a point & shoot as compared to the complex DSLR. Also taken some night shots of the surroundings before the display began. . .
