So this is my final day of Samsung Members Connect for the Galaxy Unpacked 2025. But today's challenge was to complete the group missions with other Samsung Members Stars in my group.

First, I had breakfast in the morning at 8 AM. Loading up the energy for a busy and productive day ahead.

Our team gathered up together at 9 AM to board taxis to head towards our different destinations to create content.

At first, we headed to Ghirardelli Square! Place famous for it's chocolate! πŸ«πŸ˜‹

But our focus was to complete the group video mission here. While we also explored the options portrait model task.

Then we started walking towards the Fisherman's Warf to have our launch at a famous bakery.

For lunch, I ordered Chicken Pesto Sandwich with a Sparkling Lemon drink! Great combination I think!

After this, we walked to Pier 39, my favourite place in San Francisco. I captured some amazing pictures here as well and saw some sea lions.

I also bought some sovereigniers here!

Then we headed off to each nearby beach to Capture Golden Gate bridge.

This was really the important place as we were able to complete our group missions of freezing the frame and model portrait at this spot!

The we took taxis to return to hotel. I didn't even had time to change for Gala Dinner since we got stuck in traffic in downtown San Francisco. 🚦

But, for first time I sat in a Tesla today! A model 3!

We departed from Hotel for our dinner on 6:15 PM. Dinner was amazing! But, the best part was the dessert. 🍧

There was a lucky draw today as well, but unfortunately it wasn't lucky for me, since I didn't win anything. πŸ₯Ί

Anyways, I started to concentrate on Nightograhy task and started to experiment with ProRaw manual mode. I really loved that process! Hopefully, I will get better this! 

Here are some shots for night skyline of San Francisco:

So this was the ending of my trip. Feeling a bit sad that I won't be able to attend award ceremony tomorrow. 😩

But it is what it is. It wasn't in faith this time. Anyways, thanks to my local managers in India for selecting me and doing all the arrangements for me.

Thanks to all the members in both of the teams for their hardwork! And also thanks to Samsung HQ team for arranging this beautiful and memorable event! Hope to see you all soon! ❀️

It's Karan Singh signing off from Samsung Members Connect January 2025.
