Flourishing Flower Trade

A picture from the archives…
The brightly coloured stalls outside the Guan Yin (Goddess of Mercy) Temple at the Waterloo Street/Bugis Area sell joss-sticks and flowers for prayer offerings by pilgrims. I am impressed with the bustle of activity that takes place around the area. For this shot, I used a 8x neutral density filter and a small aperture of f/22 to slow the shutter settings sufficiently to achieve the movement-trail effect of the passers-by walking past the stalls.
