This is a really eye-catching shot. You've achieved excellent clarity, and the whole picture seems to have a silvery feel to it. What was your exposure time on this? Good shot!

Beautiful. I think it would also look good darkened so that it looks closer to how it would look to the naked eye.

Wellcome to TE.
Nice spreading on the water and beautiful colors but why did you cut the building in the reflection?

Wow, well done. Beautiful colours and I can imagine the clouds just passing by with a lot of speed. Nice reflection in the water

A very beautiful picture Judhi. The buildings looks very 3D and distinctly clear. The reflection is superb. Very well done.

Incredible night shot.. Reflections are amazing, as well as the luminosity you managed to capture.

Please could you tell us the aperture and speed you used ?

Nice! And agree with zamsh about cutting the buildings in the reflection. But believe that this was necessary. Wellcome to TE. Very strong entrant shot.

Magnificent nocturnal picture. How do you get the star-effects on the streetlights without getting these lines for other light-sources in the picture? I'm glad you added the exposure time and aperture in your message to "whereami". Could you also give information on the type of film (and perhaps any filters) that you used?

This is really nicely seen and photographed.

Try some Unsharp Mask and I think you'll find even more crispness in the details.

Very good shot! I really love the colours and reflections in this shot and I haven't seen a shot from this location before, which is another bonus. I'm not sure, but I think I might have been tempted to brighten the top left hand corner a little bit. Excellent first image :-D

Nice shot ... om judhi ..
Probably the composition will be better if you take the full reflection of building.
Anyway salam kenal om judhi, masih aktif terus di FN ya?

Never imagine the night scene of Singapore can be such attractive...what an attractive shot with all lights of buildings are steadily controlled. Well done.

• [2004-05-12 7:09]

Wooooo.... How long is your shutter speed? It seems to be a super long one. The river and clouds are caught with moving... Wonderful...

Very good shot! All buildings are very sharp and the reflection is perfect. Sometimes I try to make some shots like that one, but I'm very far away from that level... :-) Very colorful and very beautiful! Just a question: which hardware you used to scan this photo (always when I scan a photo the results are far from good... probably OR I'm doing something wrong OR I need to change my scanner...).

Parabéns!

A fabulous, artistic skyline. The clarity and colours of the buildings are stunning set against a simple sky, presumably blurred by the long exposure. The reflections are mind-blowing. I wish I'd taken this!

Fascinating "Sore-Shot" :)) ha ha ha .. :lolz:
But actually this made the photo really looked so different. I meant this trully like nites in other earth .. :p
One thing that really bugging is the cutting of below edge. It would be better if the building reflection placed in full size.

Interesting shot -- the colors palette makes it look almost like an illustration. Nice work.

Hi Judhi, the colors and exposure are very nice in this shot. It would be interesting to see it a little darker, but I think it works well even as it is; being so bright at night gives it a sort of a magical look. Thanks for sharing!

It looks like day and night at the same time. Those lights sparkle like crystals. Ive never seen a better night shot before.

Hi Judhi,

This is a fantastic view of Singapore. The colours are wonderful, and the timing is spot on. However, I have to agree that this suffers from a major deficiency: you've included a large part of the sky, at the expense of the more interesting and aesthetic reflection. Now, the sky does indeed look very good, especially with the cloud floating behind the buildings, and it would have been best to keep it, along with more reflection. Perhaps you were limited by the lens. But as such it looks as though it has been amputated. A little more sharpness in the buildings would also help.

;-D
