Lonely

The dragon wonders where are all his friends. He misses them and the photos that they used to take with him when his home was in its heyday more than 10 years ago.

up, Up, UP......and Away

What's there going up into the sky, leaving a trail behind?

Fuzzy

The scaffoldings are arranged so neatly and tightly, they look fuzzy from an angle. How many layers is that?

The Track

The one way track - going in or out?

The Abandoned Pool

Where have all the water gone?

Wet Christmas

It doesn't snow in Singapore but it rains.

Gateway to Heaven

Singapore's sharpest building cutting into the blue sky.

Evergreen

If you look closely around, you might notice some trees shedding their leaves. A pretty scene indeed; a delightful contrast.

Spiral

It was a pleasant surprise to stumble across this scene. Didn't even know that these staircases were painted in such a colour-coordinated manner when i must have passed this place for countless times.

Speeding Through the Tunnel

Here we are on the KPE, under the land of Singapore. Moving on, speeding on towards the end of the tunnel.

The Staring Incident

Cats are curious animals. They will stare at you and you will wonder what to do with them.

The Shy Deer

The shy deer stays hidden by camouflaging under the thick foliage.

Look Up

A ring of stained glass panels adorning the inside of the dome of the National Museum of Singapore.

Swing and Sand

It's difficult to find a swing and a playground with sand nowadays. But here in a Hougang neighbourhood, there's 2 swings on a sandy patch. A rare sight indeed and like all public facilities, they are prone to vandalism.

The Aliens Have Landed

The aliens have landed right here with their flying saucers to steal our blue skies. Or would you rather believe that those are service reservoirs? What is a service reservoir?

Metalworks

Anderson Bridge, a bridge over the Singapore River, was part of the F1 circuit. It felt amazing to see the cars zooming across this bridge that has seen the times and has aged gracefully.

The Lagoon

There's the city skyline in the background. An unfamiliar sight which is over the sea at Kusu Island. That's one of the two lagoons during low tide which exposes the sand.

Battleship

That's an old American river cruise ship and an old Chinese junk. Which is better? Actually, both of them are just replicas of those ships. One is a restaurant anchored at Marina South Pier and the other is a ship meant to take tourists around the Southern Islands.

Odd One Out

Is the white chair the odd one out? Was it placed there on purpose or was it just a coincidence? Would there be changes to this arrangement?

The Tower

One of the most iconic buildings in Singapore given a fresh coat of paint. i'm in awe.

Fly Me to the Moon

Fly to the Moon and you can meet Chang Er, that is if she is not hiding from you. If not, you can catch a glimpse of her in lots of places like Eu Tong Sen St but not for long though.

Textured Facade

This building is along the PIE opposite the temporary school grounds of Cedar Girls', which was previously that of Geylang Methodist Sec and VS. The facade is one of the most interesting that i've seen around with the flaps of material stretched across the whole building. Sunshades for the occupants, perhaps?

The Monolith

The National Library building is a monolith as compared to the rest of the buildings around it. i like the architecture and the interior and especially the fact that it is a green building but it just looks out of place.

Reflections by the Kallang River at Night

This was the view taken from the Singapore Flyer at night. i thought the reflections of the Benjamin Sheares Bridge in the river looked very surreal. It was a moment of serendipity.

Reflections by the Kallang River

The scene is set to change soon with the completion of the Sports Hub (yet another hub in Singapore) but it's a pity that those iconic "floating" restaurants have to go.

Heavy Task

These 2 strong men are tasked with carrying this heavy disc but i wonder what is it for? But they do look impressive against the grey skies...

Just Doesn't Look Right

It just seems a bit weird, surreal in fact to look at this scene.

The Big Great Ferris Wheel

That's our very own Singapore Flyer, the biggest (observation) wheel in the world. This was taken from a low angle, making the cables look extremely short when in fact they are not. Set against the grey skies, this looks like a ferris wheel from those horror theme parks in the "Mr. Midnight" series.

The Cat and the Sculpture

The cat is lying lazily on this sculpture at Sculpture Square. Nobody is there to disturb it anyway.

Dangerous Beams

These are the ceiling beams of a multi purpose pavilion. Looks very dangerous with all the wire twining around, all in the purpose of preventing kids from playing soccer inside the pavilion.

Solitary Flag

Is the act of still hanging the national flag in September considered as patriotic? At least it's adding a bit more colour to this rather colourful flat in Bugis.
