Marina Barrage

Tiredness tends to affect my body after 10pm. However the trip to Marina Barrage seems to delay this effect as I could feel the cool breeze gashing pass me. I stayed pretty much awake throughout the night.

To my surprise, though the restaurant was closed, there were many people hanging around there, families, couples and friends of friends. This place seems crowded!


OK OK... not much people around here as I have waited for a long while to shot this picture ... :-)

The view on top of the Marina Barrage was breathtaking! On the left was the upcoming Casino and across to the river, you could see the Singapore Flyer standing tall shining with nice colours wrapped around it!



I suspect it was pretty cold that night which causes some fogging in the air as the pictures were not as sharp as it should be! I have ruled out other possibility like my "skills" and others as I always considered myself as an above average photographer...... ;-P



From the above picture, the left side is the reservoir while the right side is the sea

The view towards the bridge across Marina South and Marine Parade is something unique, never have I thought that this is possible to close a big river and to transform this into a big reservoir! This is indeed a true visionary and masterplanning piece of work in action.
