One of the cool features of The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands shopping centre in Singapore was this canal replica running through the middle of the shopping centre. You could even ride on the boats! I believe the design of this shopping centre is one of the most stunning I’ve seen. In case you missed…
I’ve been making a great effort to stay on top of my posts here on the blog. I do aim to post at least 3 times a week, and I know I can do it if I put my mind into it. Quite often what slows me down is the post-processing of the photos. I…
Amongst the many things that I liked about Singapore, one of those is the modern city architecture. Everywhere I looked was a great photo opportunity. I can’t remember what building this was at, but it had this great bamboo garden at the front on either side of the entrance. The entrance was reasonably long, and…
It’s only a shopping paradise for those with money, however. The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands is a massive shopping centre in front of the Marina Bay Sands hotel and casino in Singapore. Its a great location I reckon, as those who are lucky enough to win big gambling can shop at some of the…
Singapore reminded me a lot of Brisbane. It’s a reasonable small city, it’s clean, and it’s modern. As I walked through the CBD, I noticed this cool building, and with a great sunset, this photo opportunity couldn’t have gotten any better.
The Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay is a centre for performing arts. It is located along Marina Bay and contains a concert hall and a theatre. Its shape looks similar to the durian fruit common in South East Asia.
This was a fun one to take. I stood on this spot for about 20mins, waiting for the One Fullerton neon sign to be clear. This was hard to achieve, as the sign is located in a section where a lot of people walk past, and many of them block the sign as they stop…
Here is a different one. During the shooting of the Esplanade Bridge, my intention was to process the photo the same way as most of my other ones. However, I encountered a small problem which ruined the image in colour. Just before I gave up on the image, I decided to open up one of…
I took this photo at the Marina Bay Sands Hotel Sky Park. I was on the 57th floor, which there is very limited space for non-hotel guests, but the 56th floor is much larger. I was only here as I got off on the wrong floor haha. Either way, tripods weren’t allowed anywhere, so I…
The Olympic Walk at Marina Bay in Singapore was launched in 2012 for the inauguration of the Youth Olympic Games. Even though it looks solid, the Olympic sign apparently is so light that leaning on it will bend it.
