Canon Photomarathon 2009 !!

It's Canon Photomarathon 2009 on 10th Oct 2009 in Sunway Lagoon,me and Yann slept for 3 hours before going(cause both of us went clubbing till 4am),super hang over morning and i still can smell the acohol in my body,hopefully i manage to hold my camera till the "marathon" is end...haha

After reaching,we register at a counter on the Elephant Walk and wait for the opening.Approximately 2500 participates in this contest.There are so many lens for us to try out as well as camera (1D mark III and 5D mark II !!!). At 1st there's speech by few peoples (i forgot who are they,sorry),then performance by Ryan (winner of Astro star),and the last part is giving us the theme of this year contest.....every of us so exciting + nervous...

And.... The 3 themes is 1.Splash 2.Red 3.Shooting in progress !!! Once the female announced it,all of us can't wait to run into the Sunway Lagoon shoot our dream picture to win the contest...lolzz

I and Yann 1st station is ----- Food stall !!! We agree to take our breakfast before we start,and we found out the food there is so expensive ! 1 milo for RM5.00....omg~

After feeding our stomach we start walk around to find the objects that suit the 3 themes.We do met few of nice guys during shooting too :)

4pm we start loading our pictures to the server unfortunately 5.30pm the server is down and i need to wait them to fix it(last call at 7pm).I was so upset cause of tiring and long waiting during uploading.At last they need to copy the pictures to a PC and pass to the judgement.

8pm,they said they need 2 more hours to pick the winners,we wait again...and looking at the preview pictures summited by contestants....there's many creative pictures...

10pm,judgement not yet have decision of all the winners (guess there's too many nice pictures,muahaha),organiser asked us go back and wait for the result,will be announce on tomorrow......so we back and end of the 14 hours "Marathon".

I did earn a lot during shooting around,i can see some of them using equipment like colour transparent cards to do different effect,some of them using unique gear like "flexible tripod".

Below photos taken during "marathon",you can find there's "fun" and "horror" from its !!! Enjoy~
