Macau Photography

Macau photography is about as exciting as watching turtles race.  This might be a good time to get into Macro photography because there’s not many interesting things to take photos of in Macau.

For those of you who are photographers, you’ll know that good photographers can take good photos regardless of where they are and with whatever they have on them.  If you’re looking for some ideas into Macau photography, check this page out here.  I wouldn’t call this stunning, but in places like this, you need to take your ND filters and get into the long exposure stuff.  It’s not that bad in Macau for photographers, I just don’t like the place and when you don’t like a place it’s much harder to take good photos.

Trying to be optimistic, other than long exposures, there are some shots to had inside the hotels but the problem is there’s no Macau photography inside the casinos for obvious reasons.  Outside the casinos, there’s not a lot happening, other than people walking around boring buildings.  Some of the casinos have interesting (not necessarily in a good way) architecture, but you’ll really have to think hard and come up with some different shots in Macau if you want to come back with some good shots.

When I went to Macau I think I had the Fujifilm X-E2 and for some sill reason decided to take a 8mm Samyang Fisheye.  Actually now thinking back, the Chimelong Resort was not a bad place for some photos,  but that’s a pain to get to and requires a China visa.  I’m going to park this post on Macau photography and come back to it, maybe one day when I’m totally and utterly sick and tired of being in Hong Kong, have no money to go anywhere else, I’ll come back to Macau and try and get some good shots.
