Insect at Mt. Faber.
This is the second time I've been to Mt. Faber for the purpose of snapping, and it's also the second time I'm taking a photo of this specific species of insect at the exact same spot. I guess it's a common hang-out for them, and you shouldn't have any problem finding one of these. It's situated near a wall of bronze memorials.

Pulau Ubin
Once again, a photography outing. This time, everyone was around. I forgot to mention that Vincent (vinny), his girlfriend and Ivy joined us during the Outram outing.
Since fat-pat, alien and I had all come up with places to go previously, vinny suggested Pulau Ubin, and Pulau Ubin it was!
Pulau Ubin is an island off the North-East side of Singapore, near Malaysia. To get there, one would need to travel to Changi Point Ferry Terminal and take a boat across.
More information here: www.nparks.com.sg


You know, I remember clearly, going to Pulau Ubin once before with another group of friends, and there wasn't really much to do. Besides climbing into the chalet compound and passing ourselves off as customers, there really wasn't much to see or do.
We probably missed out on the historical sites there, but I believe there was some construction going on before - which has probably been completed by now, and the reason why I found much more to do this time round.
Also, the first time I went, it was on a weekday, so there were much less people there. You might like the quiet that nature brings or you may prefer the hustle & bustle of people surrounding you, but whatever it is, please remember to bring mosquito repellant and a bottle of water, a big one.

Mount Faber



Mount Faber isn't a mountain - if it were; with the size (or lack of it) of our land, Singapore would be just a mountain, not an island. These were taken with my Nikon D60.
The time of the day and year I was there, there wasn't much to see at Mount Faber. Now, there's a huge bridge, and Mount Faber connects to many parts of Singapore. Anyway, I wasn't really exploring, I was there guiding a friend on how to use a DSLR.
Note to self - explore Mount Faber in the near future.
