SAOC Appeal Dinner 2006

Finally an update, okay I know this is not a professional way to do this. Since the photo was taken on 4th August and I just finished it yesterday (15 September) but it just can't be helped... I had heaps of assignments to due, and I got another 5 coming out... Ah well, back to the pictures

I was so lucky, Fabian, Steph's friend works for South Australia Olympic Council and needed photographers for the fundraising dinner. He asked Steph to be the photographer and Steph asked whether I could be a photographer as well. But then it makes me think, I only have my Sony DSC-P100 and Nikon F3 (bad for fast stuff, manual focus is just not the way) then luckily Michael Wong lend me his camera! Hooooo!

The fundraising dinner is held to assist athletes in South Australia.

Me & Steph just can't believe this. Both of us so busy and when we took a break we saw this on the table... Just can't believe how free those volunteers are until they can play monopoly... Haha

And I'm quite enjoying using linux now, not for pictures but for other stuff, like listening to my music, to do my assignments, ah... I'm thinking of installing it but I've already paid for my photoshop...Ah well.... And yah, iTunes 7.0 rocks! Haha
