Marina Bay Sands

Received a phone call from my aunt on Mother's Day to bring my mom up to MBS as they had booked a suite room. Hastily took my camera (I forgot my tripod!!!) and took a few snap shots of the hotel and the Sky Park!

Shopping area in MBS

Attempt to get a nice reflection .... Fail!

The view of the suite room upon entering!
Nespresso Coffee!!!!
Walkway linking the TV Room to the restroom and the bed area. Sorry for the failed shot. :(
The restroom is HUGH! It consists of the washing basin, a room with the potty, another room with the shower and in the main room, a bathtub, complete with ammenities and a weighing scale!

In the other end of the walkway, is the bed area.

In the same room as the bed, there's a desk for working (not shown) and a sofa area for lazy and ....

.... another TV, right in the Bedroom!
Room service!

The view from the suite room!

And we are going to the Sky Park!

Infinity pool...
Another shot of the same...

Can't seem to get a nice shot.

This view seems the nicest. Mange to see the whole curve of the MBS Sky Park, except for the panel of glass in front. :(

The view from the tip of the sky park.

The view from the other side of the pool.

This cat is just so mesmerising. Managed to saw it on my way back home at night!!!

Sigma 30mm f1.4 & Haw Par Villa

Bought the Sigma 30mm f1.4 lens recently. It's a decent prime lens and it's sharp!

Went to Haw Par Villa recently during the long weekends. It's a pity that the place is almost closed to ruins. It provides great cultural knowledge and chinese folklore. The place should be properly maintained!

The Laughing Buddha

Suffering knows no bounds. Repent!!!

The harbingers!

The ten courts of hell!

A judge presiding over a fallen.

Mirror of reflection.

The Punisher!

Reading the deeds of the fallen.

Death awaits the evil-doers.


Samsara - The six path of reincarnation!

Fu-Lu-Shou!

This is so funny! Pig wearing undies!

The three brothers! Zhang Fei, Liu Bei and Guan Yu!

Goddess of Mercy

Crop of the Lotus plant!

Looks scary!

Anybody have any idea what creature is this?

This lens is SHARP! Look at the details. Even the whisker can be seen clearly even at 100%!

Next target would be the Tamron 70-300 USD lens.
Where next?
