singapore botanic gardens

I've been to Singapore a couple of times before, but last May was my first time going to this 156-year old garden honored as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It was still summer. The garden is vast, so walking is a must for one to explore the entire 74 acres.

The heat was almost unbearable, but I enjoyed taking photos of the light coming through the rustling leaves and to the concrete pathway. Even after 3 years of shooting film, I still have to think about my exposure settings and estimate the light of my surroundings before I shoot (the light meters of my cameras are all busted).

Unfortunately, I overestimated the light coming through the trees and thought it was enough to shoot at 1/125-1/250, hence the grain. Fortunately, I will be coming back to Singapore early next year so I may have the chance to shoot with a decent exposure.









Yup, there's been a little change in my blog. Everything else is the same, though. Maybe I'll explain the transition later. For now, welcome to the new blog name :)
