So This is it! On 18 October 2009 (Sunday), 8am to 11am. We will meet at Clarke Quay Singapore.
Who are invited?
If you are residing in Singapore (or visiting during that period in Singapore), you are welcome to join us.
What to bring?
Bring a Toy or more & your own digital camera!
You may want to bring water bottle and an umbrella just in case.
Why Clarke Quay?
1. Clarke Quay for a period of time (mid 90s to early 2000) as been a place where Toy collectors meet up during Sunday when the toy flea market was there. I would consider that time as a golden era in Singapore toy collecting history. So I felt it would be a good reason for old toy collectors to revisit it.
2. Around Clarke Quay has many nearby idea photo taking venues within walking distance such as Fort canning, Singapore River, Cityhall, Chinatown and the list goes on. It would give us more ease and flexibility in case we want to move on.
3. After the gathering, it is easier for us to head down to CSC for some Sunday toy flea market shopping since we would be there early. LOL
Why on a Sunday Morning?
1. In terms of photography, morning would be a good time for the lighting.
2. Since it is Sunday morning, the traffic will be lesser which is easier for us to pose our toy and capture some good images.
3. The weather will not be too hot.
The last time I have such photoshoot gathering was five years back when I meet up with some Pinky:st collectors and have some fun time shooting away with our toys.
You can leave a comment or drop me an email with your contact so that I can get back to you.
