@joshua, leefe & AK: There’s only one and only Summer Matsuri that is held annually. It’s always held around this time of the year.

Not too sure where you can get infromation on it though. Could try the Japanese Association of Singapore’s website.

@RakugaKid: I got the tickets through my Japanese sensei.

Seems a wonderful place for to go and take some pictures myself. If only I had received notification of this…

Any chance of a 春/秋/冬あつり in the future?

Yay I went after hours of begging (due to upcoming O lvls)How did you get the tickets? I had to *cough* cut the queue as my cousins were already in the front role of the queue *cough* They queued for around 3 hours but I got my tickets in minutes

@Tiny Red Man: Thanks!

@bj0rn: Which goals? I have quite alot ^^;

@Adun: I decided to ditch the flash after taking a few shots. Was using the standard kit lens (18-55mm). Should have rented a telephotic lens to get close-ups shots though. I saw a couple of photographers using the 200/300mm but they were mostly naer the main stage.

To take a wide view of the crowd is rather difficult, even with the flash. But you usually don’t use a flash for that kind of photo, hence why you get a lens with Image Stabiliser or you have to play around with the manual settings. Still nice to know you were able to take photos of girls in yukatas.
