Singapore is one of the best places in the world for night photography for a number of reasons. First of all its a beautiful country with amazing architecture, you have the old buildings from the British colonial era and then in total contrast you have the modern architectural marvels like Marina Bay Sands and the more traditional Buddha Tooth Relic Temple. Also Singapore is extremely safe and you can carry around expensive camera gear any time of the night and not be worried about getting mugged.
I started shooting at Clarke Quay at around 9:00 pm on a Tuesday and then walked down to Fulletron hotel and ended the night at Merlion Park shooting Marina Bay. The route was not planned and I started at Clarke because my hotel was rite next to it and I just kept following interesting buildings and this took me all the way till Merlion Park. By the time I got back to my room 3 hours had gone by, I burnt a few calories carrying around the camera gear and ended up with a bunch of nice photos.
