Modernity, a photo from Marine Parade, Central

Photographer's Note

Looking up at the magnificent Marina Sands complex. The curved boat looks good from many angles including from underneath. It is an engineering marvel from concept to reality.

A fascinating shot of a unique building, Murray. Nice POV and framing, and the bright light makes a nice contrast with the mirrored windows and shadowed areas under the ship.

Hello Murray,

It is difficult to believe how far the cantilevered deck stands out from the building. You've captured the graceful lines of the edifice effectively. The dominant blue and white complement each other. In the United States we seem to have ceased designing such imaginative buildings.

Warm regards,

Bulent

Hi Murray,

The tight frame is putting the building in evidence. The point of view is showing the details and colors of the architecture of the modern building. The morning light is giving nice tints to the colors. Have a nice day.

A great angle Murray. I actually think that the complex is very ugly but it does lend itself to good photos.
cheers

Hi Murray,

Interesting perspective of this new Asian icon. They have done well to make an original and bold new structure that will stand as an image of the city. I've been to the top also, worth the ticket price. Good to get some blue sky in between the usual humid clouds and regular tropical showers.
