Ri Jia Engineering Service Pte Ltd

Gosh, time passed so fast, is June now. A couple of weeks ago, I had a chance to shoot in a servicing and repairing workshop. I'm glad that I have this chance. It was fun and a fantastic experience.

Unfortunately, I picked the wrong timing. I choose to shoot on the Saturday evening. Most of the workers had went back and left only two people working there.

I planned to capture some photos like welding or grinding. Too bad everyone left the company. Well I can't interrupt them by asking them to weld something. They are still busy rushing their job!

I got my D700 with a lens borrowed a Nikon 50mm f1.2 from Robin. Thanks Robin! On the other hand, I got my Vivitar 28mm f2.8 as well. Both are very good lens. Two value buying lens, cheap and nice. Is just that both are manual focus lens, need some time to get use with it.

I have only 1 hour plus to shoot everything. The hardest part is, how many things will they do in this 1 hour?

Well, I got pretty lucky and got these shots.

Safety always comes first. You always need someone to protect everyone safety in the workshop. In here Guan Yin Ma play the main role to protect everyone.

Ri Jia Engineering Service Pte Ltd is a workshop that service and repairs rotating equipment, such as pump and hydraulic gear. They do provide fabricating services.

Accuracy and precision is very important. In this line, we are talking about 0.001 inch.

So, do you know which size of drill head are you going to use?

Finally I took a HDR shoot of the workshop. Ush.... where is my wide angle when I need it!!!!!!!!!

It is so fun shooting there, but have to take care of safety in the workshop. Cannot simply touch the machines or simply walk around. Cranes lifting heavy stuff all the time, and everywhere!

I took off at 5pm when then call it an off for the day. Luckily the boss fetch me to the train station after the shoot. That place is like desert, you can hardly get a bus or Taxi.

I had a fun day! Definitely will do more shoot like this!

Cheers
