This year is the last year of F1 Night Race in Singapore (not sure if they will continue the contract...) and for the past two years I've always hear the sounds. Yes. They are pretty loud even if you lived in a place quite a distance from the track.
So the last year of F1 I was thinking it will be nice if I can watch the actual race. And I did. Thanks to a very nice friend who gave me the ticket (you know who you are ^_____^ ). But me being a girl, I am not into cars. After a while they all look the same. But hey, I enjoyed the concert..
Beach, resort, palm trees, sunrise.. All this can be found in Bintan. Yes not typical sunset, in Bintan Nirwana Resort, you can find sunrise.
The early day was worth it cause the sunrise was breath taking. So maybe if you go to Bintan, you might want to wake up early on one of the morning to see it.
Have you ever seen the three structure with somekind of a "ship" on top of it. Bet you know what is it. It is the Marina Bay Sands; the newly open hotel plus casino at Marina Bay, Singapore. Since it's opened, they have advertised this "sky park" which located on top of the hotel (ye, the weird looking "ship" on top of the three towers) and I thought maybe it will be a good idea to go there and shoot some picture of Singapore skyline. Too bad that time my friend told me that professional photography equipment is not allowed there. Well the fact that you have a camera with the size of a toaster doesn't help. Especially when you need to hide your camera to take picture in certain places.
Anyway I delayed going there for a while because of the camera thing and the entrance fee. It is not that cheap ($20 for the view, cause the restaurant was not opened yet). But in the end during a friend visit we went there to take a look. That time I had my DSLR with me. I don't care I will just try first since there are many tourist with DSLR too. Lucky the whole camera can go in but no tripod allowed. So, guess this is the best I can do with no tripod.
And by the way, the view is nicer in the evening and at night.
