Landscape Photography in Singapore - In a Day

Marina Bay Sand and Garden by the Bay

Singapore, close neighbor to Malaysia never seem to be strange for me. As soon as my sibling settled down here, i always get a chance to visit there whenever i can. I've been reluctant to bring my camera on streets to capture the faces of Singapore, because we shared similar culture here in Malaysia. However, now Singapore have become one of my favorite destination for landscape/ architecture photography, you can find many interesting building and cityscape easily in this beautiful country. 

Singapore is not only a holiday destination for me - Its a city i'd be happy to call home. I have sibling staying here, i have no problem communicate with the people here, they have food that i loved. A perfect blend of Indian, Malay, Chinese, and plenty of Caucasians, make this place wonderful full with beautiful culture, and delicious food, satisfying your taste bud every moment. They have systematic transportation service; and cleanliness of the streets make you feels like in a hospital, but really, there are nothing much to complaint about, other than the size of the country.

Shoot the entire photographs with my previous Canon 60D, its an awesome camera for landscape, you can adjust everything in live view mode including metering and exposure chart, as well as the lever tool. Carrying a Velbon tripod weighted more than 2KGs, together with a bag of Lenses walking around the city and got lost, couldn't find a way to go through another side of the river at Marina Sand. End up spending more than 5hours walking in the middle of the city and reach home by 3AM in the morning.

Messing around in this city is really fun, you got lost on the road sometimes but you will never get lost if you are taking a MRT. It's so convenient to transport you from one place to another, you don't need to be a genius to understand their route, its as easy as breathing. Singapore can be a great city to experimenting architecture photography, because you get so many object to shoot in the town, typically in Raffles Place, City Hall, and other major white collar zone. Personally, i really like shooting in Singapore, because you can get pretty much different perspective as they have beautiful blend of different culture (Modern, and Traditional). Hopefully i will be in Singapore again for the coming semester break, or during my sister wedding (looking for further updates), will do more street photography this time with my beloved Lumix GF1 (One of the best camera i ever owned).

If you would like some tips on where to visit in Singapore, i hope i can help, just send me an email or enquiry through this website, and i will try my best to assist!
