A Touch of Zen
Dragonflies are in abundance by the reservoirs in Singapore. The last time I took one by the reservoir was this favourite of mine at MacRitchie Reservoir. I have been looking for a chance to take something along similar lines. Though not as clean in composition as my previous attempt, I like this one because of the reflections of the dragonfly and twigs. I only wished that the dragonfly was more colourful! In this instance, I had to boost the saturation on the dragonfly considerably to get the final effect.

Just a short little update while I am away in the UK…

No new pictures this time on my trip to the UK (I did not bring a camera apart from the small little 2-megapixel one in my mobile phone) since this is strictly a not-for-pleasure study trip. The above was taken 3 years ago on Read Bridge located at Clarke Quay in Singapore. Just a short reminder to myself that I am soon to cross the one big major bridge in my career…

As promised, this is the vertical version of “Frozen In Tranquility”. Between the two shots, this was my favourite one initially. However, I am beginning to find the horizontal one more appealing. This one has the ‘orange bit’ cloned out for a change. Of course, the contrast and saturation was boosted up significantly to achieve this final look. Which one do you like better?
