This outing was organize by a Photography group i.e. The Catchers of Light Qatar (TCLQ) to collect fund for the victims of Typhoon Sendong in Philippines. Other group that also join this outing are: Team Creation; Doha Pinoy Shooters Club (DPSC) and Nikonista Qatar..
For this session, it was done at the Junkyard of Doha, near the Industrial Area. With the “RESCUE” concept, 5 female models and 5 male models join this session.. which allows the photographers to have ample time to take pictures of all of the models.. for about every 15 minutes we switch the models.. each group have 1 male & 1 female models for the subject.. the only tricky about this is the session was start around 2pm afternoon which the lighting was very harsh.. however.. it was a great outing with friends.. we have fun & also we manage to collect some donation for the victim of typhoon sendong..
I receive an email from my friend in Philippines saying that he is one of the victim of the devastated area of the recent flood. He wasn’t able to salvage things from that incident coz the water rose abruptly that includes his Nikon D200 that he bought from me back in end 2009. I am so sorry bro coz cannot help much from here.. normally the camera & lenses is consider total lost.. or if you can sent it to the Nikon Service Centre, they might suggest you how to do about it. Most of electrical items if it is on power even the power is off but have battery attached to it will short circuit.. try to open the camera body & lenses.. do some cleaning.. opern the body.. brush all the dirt & sand out.. use hair dryer to dry the camera off.. then re-assemble it back.. & try to on it again.. if it doesn’t short circuit at the first time.. it can be used back.. hopefully bro.. so sorry again about your camera..
As of what I heard more than 600 people are reported death and hundreds are still missing.. my deepest sympathy to all victims of TYPHOON SENDONG.
