17/10 - Holland Woods (12 Jun 2010)

It was a fine morning. The outing started earlier than normal as some of our shooters wanted to get more of the dewy images. The Holland Woods almost recovered to its original outlook as when we started to explore it 2 years ago.

The long standing grasses occupied most of the trail along the canal, and there are full of characteristic macro subjects for the site various dragonflies and damselflies. There were quite a number of spiders too and many other insects such as butterflies, leafhopper, katydids, grasshopper, etc.

Surprisingly, there were no any other people going into the trail during our 4 hours of shooting! The first 100 metre or so, the main part of the trail, remained under shadow of the nearby secondary forest up to 11am, and most of the dews last until we finished the outing at 11:30am.

Participants (6) - Cai Yixiong (Team Leader), Kyaw Htay, Stephen Lim & Son, Carlos Caparas, Vincent & Anthony Quek
