- Wesak Day Celebration 2010 - #1

On 15th of may 2010,
a wesak day celebration was organised by
the lipis buddhist association...
--
Definitely, i went there for photo shootings!!!
it was during the evening time
and the event ended up at night...
that's why, lightings is the most difficult part
for me this time...
anyway, its a good chance for me to practice
photography in a low light condition...
--
Did enjoy a lot, although it rained (quite heavily) during
almost the end of the parade... gosh~ ==''
luckily i've kept the d90 earlier and was just steps away
from a shelter that time...=)
what an adventure huh... LOL

The flower-decorated truck with a buddha statue, which leads the parade.

My little cousin, havin some prayer before the parade.


Flowers placed by the people onto the truck before the parade.


The dragon dance.


Another view of the dragon dance.

During the parade...


Two little girls following the parade. (my little sis is on the right, and the other is my little cousin)


People started to carry candles in their hands while it was getting darker.

Choosed to use the AF nikkor 50mm f/1.8D when it was totally dark at night. (wider aperture providing faster shutter speed)
