  9. The Muriya letter states the last day of submission of photos to Photography Club is 5th May. We were told at the meeting that the last date of submission is 20th April. Can someone clarify this please ?

  10. The place is still not ready to be shot ! There is all around construction going on with debris. the ladders, equipments, plastic sheets, and all sorts of material is lying on the villas and vicinity with no boats in the Marina. No villa is ready complete which can be shot properly from outside or inside. At night only the pathway lights are on. A professional shoot of the architecture cant be done like. Any suggestions or comments are most welcome.
