there’s a photograhy exhibition happening on july 25, 2009. we’re going to exhibit pictures taken by the oasis kids. i’m really looking forward to it! I’m hoping you can be there for it! I’d love it if you can make it!
so yeah, a bunch of us went out with the kids to take pictures of their community… and more specificially of water, faces and hands. These were the themes the kids themselves wanted to take pictures of. first we taught them how to take pictures… taught them the basics about how to compose a picture… how to use the flash… don’t cover the flash in case you’re using it… make sure your subject has enough light… taught them about how you need to half click (padi press) so that you can give the camera time to keep your subject in focus…
so yeah… now we’re doing an exhibition to raise money for the kids… they’re really passionate about football… so probably some of the money will go into getting them great… then some other stuff…
oh… by the way… they’re doing a freedom tournament this sunday in frazer town corporation grounds… i think i’m going to be there… cheering them!
so that’s July 28, ’09 around 1? i’m not so sure about what time though… but i know it’s on sunday… and the kids have been training for it for a while now.
so yeah… gettin back to the photograhy exhibition… we’re involving them in every phase of the planning and execution… so that means they need to come up with names and we together agree on it… we work together with the kids on making the invites/flyers… work with them to make sure we have an audience/buyers for the exhibition… we’re really looking forward to it!
it’s going to be soo good!
yeah… so in one of the meetings discussing what we’d probably call the photography exhibition, one of the kids thought we should call it – last angels. and jennie and me were quite puzzled by it… what do you mean, last angels? so he went on to explain… well… you know… we’re like the last ones to get opportunties… last ones to get new stuff… we’re generally ignored…
so hence… last angels… wow!
i really liked that title…
but then most of the kids like the title… “World’s future” implying that they were the world’s future… how cool is that again!
the “punch line” is “in focus now”… so putting it together, it will be… “World’s future – in focus now” i really love it!
i’m really hoping you can make it. I’m really hoping you will support the cause… and even more… i’m hoping you’ll join us in our journey trying to make the world a better place… stop talking… start walking!
So be there if you can…
Date: July 25, 2009
Time: 4pm to 6pm
Venue: Feba Radio Hall, commisrait Road, Bangalore 560001. It’s very close to Bangalore Central (which is on MG Road)… so you follow along the road from bangalore central and turn into this road… next to bangalore central, there’s this icici bank… and next to that i think is the feba radio hall… or may be it’s 2 buildings after… i’m not terribly sure… but it’s there…
