I know. I know. I'm extremely late.
I think it's one of the most tiring shoots I've ever done. So I had a closing shift at work that day, which means that I leave my work place at 2.30 a.m, reach home at around 3 a.m-ish... did some laundry and stuff and finish at 4, confirming plans with my partner and everything is settled at 4.30... and I had to wake up at 5 in order to be able to catch a bus from PTET (my former school) to the national stadium.... So I barely slept... and I also skipped my breakfast, somehow. I almost fainted towards the end, half because of the lack of rest.. and the other was excitement... and the other was the crazy 30 something degree Celsius weather.
But enough complaining, it was, in my opinion, one of the most YOLO shoots I've ever done as well. Aside from all the complications, we actually managed to enter the stadium without a ticket... and access all the "press only" area. HAHAHAHAHA we almost got kicked off, but thank god we were fast runners. See, being photographers comes with the perks of having strong arms and good stamina. LOL
Anyway, this year's national day is themed "Generasi berwawasan", or in English... "visionary generation". It was wonderful, the patriotism bounces off every single surface of the stadium, from top to bottom. It was an amazing feeling.
So, here are some pictures. :)
the youngest patriot in the house!
