Architecture
I remember driving through the undeveloped Marina Bay area (off-road on the grass) years ago to get to a good spot to take a shot of the Singapore city skyline. That trip is no longer necessary ever since the Marina Bay Sands development came up over the last couple of years. Instead, all I needed was to take a nice stroll along the waterfront to get this picture. The morning sun provided just the right touch of warmth to a scene that should be familiar to all Singaporeans.
A slightly different (almost two-dimensional) view of the Helix Bridge along the Marina Bay Sands area in Singapore taken during my morning walk last Sunday… Backlit and silhouetted against the rising morning sunlight, I caught sight of various joggers running along the bridge. I set up my tripod and waited for the right moment to freeze the action of one of these joggers.
For the Star Wars fans amongst you (and in myself), no apologies for the title as the figures not only reminded me of literal sky-walkers but also the giant trees on Endor from Return of the Jedi 😛 This picture was taken from our first foray into Gardens by the Bay, Singapore’s newest attraction. The eleven iconic “Supertrees” dominated most of the pictures I took in my short three-hour visit to the Gardens. Repeat visits are definitely on the cards…
