Island of Tourism

Quote of the day : One person's craziness is another person's reality. - Tim Burton

This is a view no stranger to people at Singapore, or to the tourists. Taken from Vivocity, showing where the island of tourism (or so I think) is. Having not been to that island (it is a small island linked by a simple bridge) before, if I am not mistaken, the orange building is Sentosa Ferry Terminal, while the buildings at the back is a part (or entrance of) Universal Studios, Singapore. Might save up to make a shooting trip to Universal Studios one day.

Purple Helix

Quote of the day : Telling the truth and making someone cry is better than telling a lie and makeing someone smile. - Paolo Coelho

The Helix Bridge, with purple light on it. The light seems to be always in purple when I am there with camera =.=

Another shot I posted on the blog before at here.

Marina Bay Sand #2

Quote of the day : Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself.

CNY @ Suntec City

Quote of the day : The world will not be destroyed by those who do evil, but by those who watch them without doing anything. - Albert Einstein

Alas, some Dragon thingy for this CNY season! This golden dragon sits outside of the entrance of Suntec City leading to the MRT station. Can say this is the best CNY decoration I saw at Singapore for this year, although not really satisfy with the result of all the decoration hunting I had made for this CNY season. Maybe if I reach back Batu Pahat early tomorrow, I will make a trip to the mall and see what I have over there.

Bling-bling CNY @ Marina Squre

Quote of the day : Just because a person smiles all the time, doesn't mean their life is perfect. That smile is a symbol of hope & strength.

Another bling-bling CNY decoration at Marina Square. Was there the night before this picture was taken and saw those bling-bling appear to be looking good. So the next day I travelled all the way back to Marina Square again to realize that the shot can only be taken at night. Why? Because of the material they use for the roof. Shoot it after many many hours of waiting, can't really wait till the sky turn dark as I was rushing to another place after that. SKY Y U NO DARK EARLIER? =.=|||

First year anniversary!

Count your garden by the flowers,

Never by the leaves that fall.

Count your days by the golden hours,

Don't remember clouds at all.

Count your night by stars, not shadows,

Count your life with smiles, not tears,

And with joy on every birthday,

Count your age by friends, not years.

Its been a while now, thou not as consistent as last time, but still trying my very best to come out with some interesting pictures out of my boring work life at Singapore. Here is the compilation of some of the best pictures I have shared for the past year. How time flies and so many things happened in my life, good and bad. 1 year ago at this very date, I am still a student at MMU, struggling with my FYP, and here I am now working at Singapore. Wonder where will I be and where my blog is heading this exact date next year? @.@

Aqua City, at Odaiba, Japan

CNY Decoration Shop

This shop does not appear to be anything special to me, but there is a lot of tourist shooting from the outside. With my camera on my hand, I just jumped in and join the crowd to snap this picture. So this is some of the many many kind of decorations available for this year dragon year!

PS : Kinda disappointed with the decoration at Chinatown, Singapore this year. Or is it just me for having too high of expectation with the decorations?

Shadow Art

This is the one and only shadow art (if I am not wrong?) you can find inside Singapore Science Centre. Construct with items that you discarded, parts that deemed useless by us to become something different, and appear to be useful (as an art!).

PS : Seems like the art is not that obvious from the angle I took the picture =.=|||

Lonely Light at Fuji

Quote of the day : When you can't change the direction of the wind, adjust your sails. - H. Jackson Brown

This light trails was taken while I was wandering around alone at Fuji. That is when all of my friends are off enjoying the onsen inside this building on the right. (Yes Ah Hai & Wei Hong, this is the very spot where I told you guys I heard the two of you chatting >.<) 

Its either onsen or photoshooting for me, so of course I would go for the second option. Don't think I will enjoy stripping naked for onsen anyway =D

PS : If my memory did not fail me, you can enjoy the onsen here with just 1,000円.

Christmas Along Orchard

This is what you can see along the road at Orchard for this Christmas season. As this is the very first time I am here during Christmas season, it is a bit of a disappointment thou. I always thought that it would appear to be something better than this. Oh well, better than nothing right?

Christmas @ Ngee Ann City

It Christmas time again of the year! Imma gonna try to come out with some christmast shot for the whole week! This one is shot at Ngee Ann City, Orchard. Super huge christmast tree lying in the middle of the mall and thanks to the indoor lighting which help complete the shot, here it is for the celebration! Christmas is L.O.V.E., so spread the love with your love ones!

The Helix Bridge

Quote of the day : Confidence comes not from always being right but not fearing to be wrong

This is the Helix Bridge, a pedestrian bridge linking Marina Centre with Marina South in the Marina Bay area. This bridge is also known as the Double Helix Bridge previously, with five viewing platforms spanning across the entire length of 280 meters which provide great views of the Singapore skyline. Constructed with 650 tonnes of Duplex Stainless Steel and with the help of 1000 tonnes carbon steel for the temporary structure and also helping the bridge to get the helix shape, the Land Transport Authority claims it is a world first in architectural and engineering bridge design.

Smoking Hot Ride

Quote of the day : If we don't change, we don't grow. If we don't grow, we aren't really living. - Gail Sheehy

Saw this ride back at Tokyo, sleeping inside some kind of mechanic shop. I wonder if it is for display only or owned by the boss of that tiny shop.

Actually was attracted by how the lighting lights the helmet, but ended up that specific part is polluted by flares. =.=||| Oh well, another reason to not shoot HDR with filter next time >.<

PS : Still looks good to me thou, with the flares =D
