this year’s lantern festival falls on the day before my own birthday, i thought why dont i give it a try to see what it’s like in shanghai. might as well take my new 5D out for a night shoot spin. but boy… bad idea.. the whole place was packed with people.. chinese holidays… avoid any place that has people.. avoid at all cost! enjoy the photos below.

A really nice series of shots here of the lantern festival, gives me a nice feel for the event. I really like the first crowd shot and the 2nd and 5th shots of the lanterns, really nice focus on the lanterns in each. You shoot with a 5D right? A really good camera. What lens do you mostly use?
