more more, joining in the photo flooding funs ... my fav male singles player in this tournnment is actually Hafiz !
She is Liu Zhen, believe she is an ex-China player. Currently she is a coach at Flymax Badminton School in Singapore which is run by ex-China player Zhang Qingwu.
nice photo poseidonlee....so clear .....like a pro camera man hey...... anymore candra/sigit photo?? hehe....thankss
Here's another one, didn't took much of them cos never expect them to lose ... was preparing to shoot them during final. Not pro lah ... still experimenting with the shutter speeds ... haha.
who's that girl talking on the phone that's sitting beside zhang ning in the 5th pic? at first glance, i thought it was gong ruina, but the more i look at it, the more it dones't look like her...or is it just me? btw, terrific pics guys
Don't think Gong came to Singapore just to watch matches. Should be some1 else. Chinese team insider, pls confirm
just enjoy the babelicious players in the photos, dudes! haha! i simply love all the Zhou Mi photos! thanks to those who taken pictures of her! more pleasssseeeeeee...... if only camilla martin is around too... haiz. but Zhou Mi is enough for me. did y'all watch her WS final? she was so sporting and cute, smiling most of the time....
When I took the pics of the more popular stars at the players and officials area, I thought I saw a familiar face with the handphone to her ear. She may be Tang Jiuhong, the 1989 World Grand Prix and 1991 World women's singles champion, just ahead of Susi Susanti! The Zhou Mi stretching exercises pics were most unexpected as she was warming-up for her final match against the great champion, Zhang Ning (?). I was sitting not too far away and although the railings were blocking my view, I took the chance for such a golden opportunity. Zhou was doing her routine for quite a while, emphazising on her lower limbs, especially her legs whilst at the same time watching the match being played on court. You would think she was doing yoga at that time as she bent her legs in the most relaxed manner!
Anyone noticed the BadmintonCentral.com pic on intbadfed website: http://www.intbadfed.org/Portal/desktopdefault.aspx?tabid=10&ItemID=1656
Yes, Mag mentioned this. We're happy in Singapore to have played a role in publicising BC. It is unfortunate that may of the BF'ers who particpated at the BC Fun Games in Bedok could not stay behind at the end of the Singapore Open to be included in this historic picture. But the ones we took at Bedok Sports Hall will long be remembered as one of our finer moments with BC.com!
I thought I should try to satisfy our talented Gade-Camilia's request for pics of her Western badminton stars.
Hi all, as promised, here is the link to the pics i took in the Singapore Open: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/pics/ there are quite a few (1000+) so it wasn't practical to post them here in the forum, i had to install a new gallery program to host them instead. the pics are unfiltered and unsorted pics i took. the quality improves slightly as you go to the latter images as i figured out the correct settings and as i learn more about how to take pictures. so my apologies for the poor photography skills...
the pictures were great.... i even find myself among the spectators !!! THank you for sharing the pics
great pics kwun........the quality is good too......! more others tournament pics........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
