A road less travelled

We often heard people said: "Singapore is a concrete jungle", but how often do these people went round the island to explore the hidden greenery? If you are willing to spend 1-2 hours tracking through MacRitchie Reserviour, off the beaten track, you will be rewarded with beautiful greenery away from the hastle and bustle of the city live!

As I'm on leave this whole week, I went with my uncle to explore the beautiful MacRitchie Reserviour on Tuesday. We tracked through the less travelled path with cameras in hands and captured the beautiful scenery along the way. It is a tiring three hours plus walk but it is a good form of exercise. We feel very refreshed after the long walk!

Return to Nature

Recently most of my photography subjects have been revolving around human subjects. As today is a public holiday in Singapore, Hari Raya Haji, I thought why not re-visit my favourite haunt, the Lower Pierce Reserviour (LPR), to take some nature or macro photography.

Initially, I was feeling quite lethargic because I have to wake up earlier on a holiday and set out from home around 6.30 a.m. When I reached LPR, many people were already there for their morning exercises!

The morning was very cooling because it was raining most of the afternoon the day before. I took a deep breath of the fresh morning air and immediately I felt revitalised! I watched the mirror like water surface of the reserviour as the sun slowly creep up over the horizon lighting up all the dark corners of the reserviour. A beautiful morning has begun!

I wished I could just sit on bench and watch the world goes by but I have a mission on hand. I'm here to take some nature or macro photography!
