Since we were going down to the Fashion Fiesta @ The Cathay cosplay event, oOgA and I decided to do an outdoor shoot as part of my Nendo Luka review.
Unfortunately, (or maybe fortunately), we kinda got carried away and thus we separated the shots into a different post.
And here I give you, Nendo Luka – Diva of the Takos, outdoor version :3
Do remember that you can see the larger versions by clicking on the pictures.
The weather in Singapore recently has been epic bullshit.
I wish it would decide if it was the rainy season or not.
Anyway, the morning began with a downpour which pretty much poured cold water on my intentions for the day.
However, the rain itself brings its own opportunities and despite getting miserably wet, I did manage to get some pretty nice shots :3
The day shots were taken at the rooftop garden at Vivo City.
The wading pools at the roof made a nice place to shoot water reflections with Luka.
Not to mention that octopi live in the water afterall. =P
She sings a song of the love of Takos
We naturally gained the curious looks of onlookers.
Bah well, our skin is thick anyway XDD
oOgA trying to “shoot” Luka with his cam
The fountains at the entrance of Vivo City also made for some really nice backdrops. Here are some shots taken by oOgA
Miku also made a surprise appearance.
The fountains of Vivo City (just one segment of them)

Miku sings amidst the water spray
The two Divas sing their songs with a backdrop of water
And from there on, we proceeded to the cosplay event at The Cathay which you can see in our other post.
All too soon it was night time and thus began the night shoot segment!
The night lights at The Cathay make for some pretty nice bokeh.
It was rather crowded though =/
Playing around with the water reflection
ET has arrived in Singapore……..
Possibly the most epic shot I had for the whole night
And that concludes our outdoor shoot segment.
Hope you enjoyed it!
Also, special thanks to zh3us for lending me his new gay hax lens. :3

Excellent photoshoot. How did you do the last photo?
Well I also like a lot the song of lights pic. ;)
I got a friend to write out the word using a bike light while the camera was set to a 8 second shutter. We did 8 attempts and that was the best we got. ( ^_^ )b
