Twilight At The Esplanade

Twilight At The Esplanade
I brought CY to the Esplanade for dinner to celebrate her birthday yesterday evening. We were early for our dinner appointment and decided to explore the roof-top terrace area. Brilliant twilight greeted us. I originally wanted to bring along a tripod but this was not convenient to carry around, not at dinner time especially! Thankfully, I was able to hand-hold the camera steadily enough. The final shot was composited and digitally blended from two different RAW processes of the same file — one for the highlights and one for the shadows. I like the final effect I managed to achieve.

The Esplanade Waterfront

The Esplanade Waterfront
Thousands of Singaporeans will once again converge at this area tonight to ring in the New Year with a spectacular display of fireworks. Taking pictures in the area is never easy, given the crowds as well as the closure of roads around the area. I haven’t decided whether if I should make a trip down tonight yet… This was taken one week ago on Christmas Eve.

ARPS #6 – The Esplanade At Dusk

A more typical view of the Esplanade but with a slightly different touch! Taken at dusk, a long 13 second exposure gave brilliant saturated blues to the skies. Notice the streaks of light and white blobs on the water? What do you think these are?

Exposure information: Camera – Canon Powershot G3, ISO 50, 35mm effective FL – 39mm, Shutter – 13 seconds, Aperture – f/2.8, Metering Mode: Pattern, Flash – Off
