This image was one the prints that was exhibited at the “Distinguished ASEAN Photographers” event of The Festival of Arts held at the National Museum, in 1992. The sunrise in this image was so soft that even a veteran photographer was fooled into thinking that it was sunset instead. Since this picture was taken fourteen years ago, a pavilion has been built for the anglers at the same site.

A hustle-and-bustle scene of prayers in a temple captured from a vantage point. The shaft of light has obviously help to endow the image with a greater visual impact. This is a typical illustration of having to be at the right time and at the right place to capture a nice photograph. The slide won the 3rd prize at the Royal Photographic Society of Great Britain International Slide Exhibition in 1980.
This is one of my three images that were used by Kodak for promotion as a collector’s Singapore Mass Rapid Transit card in 1995. Flamingoes are very common subjects that can be captured in our Jurong Bird Park. However, to freeze the perfect, decisive moment is a real challenge for photographers. I have collected many images of these birds during my past visits to the park. This particular one is still my favourite among them all.
