Project Making Nine-Shooting B (2)

We did it~!

Yes, we did it. We finished our shooting in Wollongong...2 hours train trip from Central..hoho..good on us!!! Thanks for everybody, Arya especially!

Actually it was really surprising for us to hear from the Wollongong Beaten Park that we got the permission to shoot on their running track. We did hesitate at the very beginning cos it was indeed far away from Sydney. With such expensive camera gear, we worried and couldn't decided. But other places refused or ignored our requiring again. We had to go there without any choice.

Alright. Let's make it a trip. A short trip...just with a camera, tripod and accessories. We could have a nice trip, can't we?~:)

We set out from Central station on Sunday (2/12/07) 9:40 am and arrived at North Woll'g around 11:15 am. Sunshine gave us a warm welcome after a 2-hour trip. Everyone was excited about arrival and enjoying the fresh air.

Finding the way through Beaten Park took half hour. Camera and tripod became heavier and heavier during the process. Finally, we saw the running track...right in front of us!!!
Cheers...we found it!!! (It's true that we'v spend almost 2 weeks searching it...and now it's right there!! So real..so..exciting!)

Excitements motivated us to begin shooting...
