Sunset at Sentosa Beach of Singapore
How to get the Sentosa island? It's easy.. The simplest way is by taking train of North-East line and alight at Habour Front Station. From there just straight up to 3rd level of ViVo City shopping mall, transfer to mono-rail, which is S$3(may vary) for return trip.
On the way to the beach, the mono rail will carry you to the very first station, Water Front Station, where you can take beautiful photos at Universal Studio. The next is Ambiah Station where the Merlion (Singapore logo) is there. And the last stop is Beach Station, where the beautiful Sentosa is awaiting visitors. You can alight and board the mono rail again and again from station to station without any additional fees.
The tram ride is free at the point of writing this post and it run for two directions, one is to Siloso beach and the other route is to the Tanjong beach. After alighting from mono rail, the tram at the right is to Siloso and to the left is to Tanjong beach.

Sentosa Beach Sunset, Singapore
Sunset at Siloso beach, Sentosa island, Singapore.

Please search for me photovigor.blogspot.com, search with google to reach me for more images especially on landscape photography.
This is another Singapore landscape photography taken at Sentosa island. The coastline is marked by three lovely man-made beaches – Siloso Beach, Palawan Beach and Tanjong Beach. It is relatively save to swim around or involve any of water activities such as beach volleyball, beach soccer, cycling, rollerblading and kayaking.
Sentosa island is not only the hot spot for landscape photographers in Singapore but also favorite location for wedding couples and one of the most photographed sites. Search for website, there are many beautiful pictures taken around Singapore.

Singapore skyine
That was a very cloudy moment when I took this photo but fortunately manage to get this colorful sunset under the cloudy sky. The view was fantastic and like a painting. It started to rain after this. In fact I wanted to take the marina sands opposite the esplanade, the theater on the bay. But the atmosphere was not so attractive to photograph. If you are interested in sunset photography, travel to the tip of Singapore like East Coast or Changi Beach, this place is highly recommended.
I deliberately underexposed it by setting the exposure 1/3 down. This produced a far more desirable result with various and deeper colors.
I enjoy nature photography as well as sunset, sunrise, landscape and night photography. Before sunset the gradually changing light make interesting and beautiful sky as the sun sinks into the horizon. Taking sunset pictures could be challenging but also very rewarding experience. But, guys, do remember, the sun never sinks into the horizon in Singapore but instead its disappears behind the high rises. :)

Singapore Skyline
Although this is not the most photographed site in Singapore I love the color, evening sky and beautifully reflected buildings by the setting sun .If you are not residing in Singapore, probably you wouldn't know or have seen such residential sites but rather you would see those beautiful sites like Singapore river, Singapore night scene or the very famous Singapore eye.
Hope you enjoy my photos.

Australia holiday_part II

This sunset was captured minutes after the plane, taking off at Darwin international airport in the evening about 6. This was on the way back to Singapore from Melbourne via Darwin international airport.
Unlike the originating flight, the return trip was more comfortable as the departure from Melbourne was afternoon flight at 1:55pm local time. The airbus A320 touch down the Singapore soil at 9:55pm local time. Of course there is time lapse and nevertheless I am happily back home safely.
Departure from Singapore to Brisbane, was in the late evening 10pm via Darwin also, so I manage to capture some sunrise images, which I posted in my previous post. Arrived Darwin early in the morning 4 am Darwin std time and continue to Brisbane at 6 am. Brisbane was cloudy and drizzling upon arrival at about 10am. I am very disappointed with the weather, yeah you know I am a camera man (By the way, my wife was very jealous with my buddy, the Canon 450D as I always taking care of my camera and those pictures I took). However, in the second day in Brisbane I manage to take some beautiful Brisbane photos and I will post it soon. The trip to Australia was really exciting, not only because of the backpacker's budget trip but also the delay of the departure flight. I hope you know the budget holiday trip; I get the cheapest airline, cheapest hostel (not hotel)with my huge backpack but several places with my favorite Rebel XSI.
Supposedly the departure time is at 10 pm, it was delayed for one hour and took off at 11 pm. It scheduled to arrive Darwin at 4 am and the flight to Brisbane was 6am. So I suppose to have two hours transit time, it was pretty enough. But, now the arrival to Brisbane was 5 instead of 4 am. I was really worried as I only have one hour for my connecting flight to Brisbane. One of the disadvantages of the budget flight is I have to collect the luggage at Darwin international airport as I was taking two different flights.
wow, we miss Singapore airline A380. :)

It was not sunset but the evening sun was covered by the cloud and you could see the ocean below. Seem like the plane was directing toward the sun and this is the best I could take through the window.

Sunset at Sembawang, Singapore
I enjoy nature photography such as sunset, sunrise, landscape and night photography as well. Constantly changing light make interesting and beautiful sky as the sun sinks into the horizon. Taking sunset pictures could be challenging but also very rewarding experience.
I have a large collection of sunset photos, and this is one of them taken at Sembawang Shopping Center or SSC, Singapore. The view was fantastic and it is a rare opportunity to take a sunset photograph in Singapore, I mean in the residential area. Since there are no high rise blockage, you could have a large view of bright blue sky during day and beautiful sunset at evening. If you are interested in taking sunset pictures, but do not want to travel to the tip of Singapore like East Coast or Changi Beach, this place is highly recommended. Of course Changi beach is needless to say much more beautiful than this.
In fact, I was having my dinner at "Astons", which is a local restaurant serving verities of western food and it resemble their motto "Quality & Value for Money". The food was cheap but great. You could get there by simply take their shutter bus from Sembawang train station. On that day, I took three photos there and this is one of them.
Base on my experience, most of the camera's automatic setting for sunset results in a wash-out images. For this particular photo, I deliberately underexposed it by setting the exposure 1/3 down. This produced a far more desirable result with various and deeper colours. The exposure compensation button is normally labelled with a plus and minus symbol.
