Slow-shutter pictures with motion-blurring effect
I am a little late for this year’s Christmas greeting (I was at work anyway on Christmas Day and I didn’t get a chance to shoot the light-up at Orchard Road till this evening :P). May you have a happy holiday season and a great 2010 ahead 😀
My third visit to the same area in the same number of weeks looking to capture the fireworks rehearsals before Singapore’s 44th National Day turned out to be literally third time lucky. I had initially wanted to try my luck at the Marina Barrage but found the place already filled to the brim when I arrived. We eventually headed and ended up having dinner at a posh restaurant at Clifford Pier. The food wasn’t exactly cheap, but what made up for it was the access to the pier overlooking the Marina Bay area, which provided the right location to capture the fireworks I was intending to catch. The above is a montage of two pictures I took that night.
Another variation from my previous post… I like the colours from this shot more although I liked the firework patterns from the previous shot better. Which one do you like?
