Spotted this creature at The Upper Seletar Reservoir yesterday morning. Obviously I was attracted by the gorgeous colour. My son Eng Kien thoughts this is a snail without the shell. I would appreciate to have the actual name if someone knows. I love the composition of the image besides the beautiful colour. I think it is a rare image to come by.
With a little bit of luck, I managed to capture an otter enjoying the morning breakfast in the water of the Lower Seletar Reservoir. Obviously, the water of the reservoir is very clean. Swimming across the water searching for seafood, five otters together found their favourite food.Fish is the staple of their diet. Often supplemented by crayfish and frog. I was fortunate to capture this image in a very close distance with a touch of brilliant lighting. The ripples of the water enhanced the image further. Actually I have been visiting the reservoir since 20 September 2020. 4th October 2020 morning was the most rewarding one. A decisive moment that is rare to encounter.
One of my image of the Lower Seletar Reservoir was captured in early nineties. Though I have passed this location in last 30 years numerous times, I have not visited the location for a photography session in the past years. The pandemic of Covid 19 has limited my travel to overseas and local places. I have decided to drop by the Lower Seletar Reservoir again. I am very pleased with what I have captured during my recent visit. I love the gorgeous colour and the visual impact of the landscape image of this location.
