On The Eve Of National Day

Here are other pictures I took on the eve of Singapore's National Day (anniversary celebration of this nation's birth) last August 8. I tried to be early at Marina Bay, but since next day is a holiday, thousands of people came in and decided to stay and make the most of the rest of the night with families, friends and loved ones.

It's a good thing I had an excellent camera zoom function. Actually, I had a not so good position to watch the fireworks as there are two trees blocking my view.


I was taking some shots while my hands were quite shaking. But the photographs that came out became more interesting because of the shaky effects.


These look like forking red lightnings.


And these look like camp fires gone wild.


Sunburst fireworks. I heard may “waaaahs” at that night.


Too much light here.


Too many people around the bay area.


The beautiful Singapore nightscape. I took this after the fireworks display.

Enjoy!
