A Picture Study 1: China Town at Chinese New Year

One of my personal goals for 2013 is to learn to take better pictures.  Lucky for me, a friend has the same goal!  We've decided to find time together to venture out to different regions in Singapore and try to take some pictures.

Today, we went to Chinatown.  It's almost Chinese New Year, so all the decorations are out and there is a festive feeling happening in this part of Singapore.  I set my camera on AV mode, but I still used to auto-focus feature.  I want to learn how to do it manually, but one thing at a time.  









We are ending the Year of the Dragon and heading into the Year of the Snake.  Hence, all of the snake decorations....

These are great! What a fun goal to have. I am always trying to improve my photography too.

I noticed what good photos you had in your holiday photos, particularly the individual faces where the eyes really shine!
