This photograph was taken early morning near Jubilee Bridge looking towards Mandarin Oriental and Ritz Carlton Hotel (from left of photograph), Esplanade Outdoor Stage, Singapore Flyer (with the mast of the Stage seen in front of the Flyer), The Float, ArtScience Museum and Marina Bay Sands.
It was a beautiful morning, with colourful clouds complementing the illuminated buildings and lights along the Esplanade. The relatively calm conditions resulted in mirror-like reflections of the clouds and structures in the Bay.
Best wishes for the new week!
This photo is from Gardens by the Bay on the Dragonfly Bridge.
This bridge is very popular and that causes a challenge for night shots. While the bridge is steel, the deck is wood and vibrations are quickly transferred to a tripod. Knowing this, I took a lot of shots in hopes of getting one. This is a single shot, not HDR just past sunset during the very short Singapore blue hour.
Singapore is a photographers paradise with so many wonderful viewpoints.
This is from Marina Barrage on the edge of the city on the Straights of Singapore. It is a very easy area to access and heavily frequented by locals enjoying the cool breezes and city views.
The challenge of this photo beyond weather is waiting for the area to be free of people and timing the water fountain lights. The water fountain cycle is rather short, so to overcome this I used a ND filter and 30 second exposure. This left the lasting water impressions and those walking through were not captured.

Gardens by the Bay is part of Singapore’s plans to transform its "Garden City" to a "City in a Garden". The Gardens are intended to be Singapore's premier urban outdoor recreation space, and a national icon. This is a blue hour view taken from the water-lily pond (without lilies for the period) in the Gardens, looking towards Marina Bay Sands and super-trees.
Sunset was unbelievably colorful this evening – I had not planned to shoot sunset was planning for blue hour but ended up with a nice pink surprise.
I am not sure what the purpose of the structure is as its open air with three openings and nothing inside. One of the other ends has a great view of the Marina Bay Sands and Singapore Flyer. But sadly there is a monster triple headed flood light that destroys any nighttime shot :-)
The stalls at Chinatown that sell candies and preserved fruits usually allow sampling. Patrons just pick out what they want to sample from the small plastic containers.

This night photograph was taken from the link bridge between Clifford Pier and One Fullerton Promenade. looking towards the historic Fullerton Hotel (which was the General Post Office) and One Fullerton during a cloudy and breezy evening.
The Window of Hope sculpture can be seen on the left, with the historic Fullerton Hotel on the right. The little fountain was lit red to celebrate Singapore National Day this Wednesday.
Best wishes for the new week!

The Singapore Flyer is an observation wheel at the Downtown Core district of Singapore. Officially opened on 15 April 2008, it has 28 air-conditioned capsules, each able to accommodate 28 passengers, and incorporates a three-story terminal building. The flyer has made numerous appearances in media and popular culture that features Singapore.
The Flyer has an overall height of 165 metres (541 ft), making it the world's tallest Ferris wheel upon completion. It was surpassed by the High Roller Ferris wheel which opened in 2014 in Las Vegas, Nevada, United States, with a height of 167.6 m (550 ft), making it 2.6 m (9 ft) taller than the Flyer.
The Flyer opened in 2008. During Chinese New Year, corporate 'inaugural flights' were held from 11 to 13 February, and tickets for which sold out for S$8,888, an auspicious number in Eastern culture. The first public rides were on Valentine's Day, 14 February, the soft launch on 1 March, and the official opening on 15 April, at which Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong was the guest of honour.
This shot was taken from the Observatory at Supertree Grove. 2 of the iconic Supertrees are visible at the foot of the image.
