baqthier December 12th, 2004, 10:54 PM Breathtaking shots! Skyline's more massive when combined with Orchard Road as in the 1st pic :)

On this picture Singapore looks like Chicago :)
I thought it is forbidden to use electronic devices during the landing ^^
I mean your Digicam.
raymond_tung88 December 12th, 2004, 11:41 PM Very nice pictures... really glad to see other views of Singapore besides just the view of the CBD...
HoustonTexas December 13th, 2004, 02:13 AM Those are the greatest photographs I have ever seen, congrads dude, great job!!!
antonyj11 December 13th, 2004, 04:16 AM Nice pictures; I've never seen Singapore from that view before. It makes it look so much bigger than the stock views of the CBD.
MCC December 13th, 2004, 04:32 AM Great pics. The skyscrapers don't stop, do they?
RafflesCity December 13th, 2004, 03:44 PM I thought it is forbidden to use electronic devices during the landing ^^
I mean your Digicam.
Generally yes, but they seem to be particular about mobile phones and tend to leave me alone with the digicam :D
Thanks everyone! :)
Trances December 13th, 2004, 03:47 PM great shots there !
good timing on your landing
Cliff December 13th, 2004, 04:29 PM OMG!!!!!! :eek2: Those are the best pictures from a plane I have ever seen!!!!! So clear!! Love the skyline, even I have never seen Singapore that way before! Btw, what airline did you take?
redstone December 13th, 2004, 06:25 PM The East Coast has many tall condos, near the sea. But all rarely seen by people outside of Singapore.
Also along at east coast is Bedok Lighthouse, which towers 78m tall.
Wagahai December 14th, 2004, 03:09 PM For me the most beautiful Skyline on earth! :)
nicholasliha December 14th, 2004, 03:22 PM OMG... suddenly it feels so worth living in my country heh heh heh! the colours really enhance the pristine ambience of our garden city. So still! So caught up in the moment of sunset, like a garden slipping into raiments of dusk as the last leaves spill gold. The motiffs of a beautiful urbanscape - pond, coast, manicured golf course, golden highrise. heh heh! and our CBD looks far more substantial than the postcards typically portray. WOW! Should be included in the latest URA celebratory book lah.
ThaQuest December 14th, 2004, 03:59 PM great photographs. i really want to go to singapore to experience the "cleanest city on earth" and make comparisons to hong kong. im looking forward to that little india flavor and the greater cultural diversity.
Nick in Atlanta December 14th, 2004, 04:46 PM Great shots Raffles City!! I really enjoyed the pics of the Downtown and the harbor area with the numerous commercial ships waiting patiently to dock. I see why it's one of the busiest harbors in the world.
RafflesCity December 15th, 2004, 01:16 AM Btw, what airline did you take?
TIGER AIRWAYS :)
Thanks everyone! Real glad you all relished the pics! :eat:

My God...I agree that this one is just beautiful! And the skyline....whoot! This must be the first time I see any photo managing to capture the entire downtown skyline in one continous mass? :eek:
