Archives_2005_to_Present #182 – Country That Never Sleeps a photo by kuantoh on Flickr.

This shot was taken with a Nikon D700 in Singapore, 2010.

A panorama stitch of 8 shots view from Marina Bay Sands Skypark. Weather was turning stormy and this was taken just before the arrival lightning sightings, signalling the near arrival of a thunderstorm. We are a country that never sleeps, full of light pollution. Sometimes, I just wish that there is a light free place in SG to see stars and the milky way, but alas, there is none. If u happen to know of such a place in SG, please share. Complete darkness in an area do not equate to conditions for stargazing, as the nearby lights can be so strong and overpowering that it lit up the skies within human range of sight. Sigh…

A chance to go up the skydeck on top of the Marina Bay Sands. The weather was really gloomy the time I was up there in the afternoon. As the sun began to set in the evening, the colors started to be more prominent and in the centre of this panoramic shot, we can see the rain showering in some parts of the island. The clouds shape the colors of the sunset to become somewhat like an eye. I call this Eye on the City.

When do you ever see only 2 persons right at this location nowadays? Never! Ever since the opening of the MBS and with the influx of massive amount of tourists, this location is packed almost 24 hours everyday. Even at night, there would be a lot of people crowding around here. This is a panoramic stitch of 6 shots.

This shot was taken with a Nikon D700 in Singapore, 2010.

Taken on a peaceful morning sunrise from Esplanade. This panorama was taken before the palm of the MBS was completed. Coupled with the moon setting during dawn, I name this as the Rise of the Decepticons. Why? I never liked casinos as they destroy families of gambling addicts. This 3 towers are deceptive of the real intentions of what was behind. With the completion of the palm, the decepticons have taken over power from the autobots once again and evil shall rule. Lol…
