Although it was convenient for me to visit Punggol Beach while staying in Singapore, I didn't go there until the very end of my 2 months stay. I'm glad I managed to go there twice, as this was an awesome place for photography.
While standing here, I received a text message on my phone, welcoming me to Malaysia. Close enough? That is indeed Johor Port in Malaysia you see on the other side.
another archival shot...this one is a wider angle view of a sunset I posted a few months ago. I packed up and left the beach at fort desoto thinking the light show was over when the sun disappeared below the horizon. As I was driving out of the park, the sky exploded into this incredible color. Having stowed my gear, I pulled over, grabbed my G9 and set it on a bean bag on the roof of the car and took several shots with the timer. I feel really fortunate to have seen this one.
When I arrived just before sunset down at the Newport Pier a few weeks ago, I started shooting as soon as I hit the beach. The late afternoon light was fantastic and as I reached the shoreline, I was immediately struck by the incredible reflection coming off of that remarkably flat beach. As the clouds above turned orange, I began to try to frame the pier into my shot along with the incredible reflection which was literally all around me at this point. As I lined up the shot, a little boy, probably around 4 years old or so, bounced into my frame, just as I was about to take a bracket or two. At first, I immediately went into my frustrated photographer mode and began fuming at the parents behind him who neglected to tell him to get the heck out of the way of the nice man who was trying to bracket a set of shots before all the good light was gone. But before I actually had time to get really irritated, I saw his silhouette against the sand and instantly decided to include him in the frame. In this particular shot, it appeared as if he was literally reaching down to touch the clouds reflected all around him on the beach.
The take away for me here was the realization that sometimes you end up liking the shot you thought was ruined more than the shot you had originally composed.
