NX11 goes to Singapore

Just back from another enjoyable trip to Singapore. I reckon it's a 'target-rich' environment for photographers, so I took my NX11, along with 30mm + 85mm lenses (plus a monopod, which didn't get much use).  There's a gallery here. Plus a selection of my favourites below:



'Granny' with bub. I got chatting to the whole clan in Takashimaya SC, and they happily agreed to this pic.



Hula-man, busking in Orchard Road.



Carp-fishing, at Pasir Ris fishpond.  These guys mean business.



Housing complex at Pasir Ris.  I think the washing-poles are there for when Jackie Chan swings by.

Re: NX11 goes to Singapore

Ha, that's funny!

Just one last set, taken on beautiful Palau Ubin  island.  Mountain-biking round this little haven was a highlight, since it's such a contrast from the hustle and bustle of Singapore, yet it's only 20 minutes away by bumboat.
