Shutter Asia's Photo Outing - FRIM - Macro & Scenery

Date: 23rd June 2007 - Saturday
Time: 9.00am (Please be punctual)
Meeting point: By the cafeteria, marked L on the map below.

3046

Budding nature photographers, me and reds, are planning to drop by FRIM this saturday. Why FRIM again? Because he hasnt shot there before, and we're planning to take a different trail this time. The last 2 times we were there we'd been on the Salleh Nature Trail. This time around, we'll be taking the Rover Track, which seems significantly longer on that map, but that map isnt to scale, I think. :D

You can find more info here:

The location with directions is here:

Basically turn off from MRR2 as if going to Selayang, keep going straight and you'll see FRIM exit on your left.

1. Bring water (An absolute must!)
2. Bring mosquito repellent (Also an absolute must!)
3. Bring your camera, your lens of choice, flash if you have, fully charged batteries, and empty cards.
4. Bring a small towel to wipe your sweat
5. Dress appropriately, we will be walking along a path in the jungle after all.
6. Remember that this is a macro outing, so we will be bug hunting. This takes patience and perseverance, so we will move slowly. :D

We're taking a different trail this time around, and reds hasnt really shot there before so it's a first for him.

If you're coming PM me your HP numbers so it'll be easier to contact you. Calios and nonblood are not confirmed yet but will try to come.

Any camera will do! It's also good physical activity, trekking through the jungle. You get to take nice photos, appreciate nature, and exercise at once, haha.
