Photographer’s Note
The biggest replica of Singapore's most enduring symbol. The Merlion [half-lion, half-fish] on Sentosa is 37 metres high and has 320 scales sculpted from glass-reinforced concrete. By night, these scales are a sight to behold as they glow in different colours.
I shall try to take a pic of the Merlion at night time next time.

Hi Ivan, very much a "Lord of the Rings" like picture :) Great notes. Do you know when it was built ? I would have liked to see something with it for scale comparison. Take that next picture. Welcome !

Nice shot, the colors are bold and the symbol is well rendered. Well seen! I'm also eager to see the other side of the Merlion!
