Clandestine photographs from my second Singapore holiday, only with a DSLR and a lot more walking. In this batch, what you could possibly call the more local spots, courtesy of Malia.
At this point it dawns on me: I've no more subjects
Just different perspectives on the same places
Oh, how long are these Somerset trains?
We've got kids playing
You'll miss it
Ahh, a shot inside the train
These things light up on select trains
How many shoe boxes?
More silhouette-ish photos
Oh, I'm here, right
Actually, this is Orchard Central
The expected street photography
You still get to wear thick sweaters?
Istana park: they have greens, we have politics
I've seen too many strollers
Before the confusion
Now, get confused at Dhoby Ghaut's interchange-ness
Hello, Rochor Centre
Just a few footsteps...
Life shut tight in residential spots
Nope, the yellow building's behind me
Korina and Mar?
Malia finally got dressed
Okay, ready?
She's bringing me to Arab Street, because it's close
These buses will pop out of somewhere
Red lights, as always
Carpets, cloths...
...and those birds, yes
Baskets, too
We're just walking
The food stalls, but first, the mosque
The usual to-the-sky! shot
The best local food is tucked in a corner
A hundred bucks, more or less
I think I took this photo for environmental purposes
Mee goreng... with egg
Malia's mushroom prata
We'll walk all that food off
And there go those birds again
If you look closely, you'll see the irony
Look at these nice streets
Nah, it's not paper
Construction sites and Suntec City
Chopsticks, ahh
That building over there? The library
As if this shot isn't daunting...
...this should be
Ice cream wafer sandwiches, just a dollar each
All the (unfinished) Iluma lights
These malls intimidate me
I mean, look at the escalators!
They all wear those short shorts, obviously
Thai coconuts, more of stones you throw
The busier part of Bugis Street
I imagine dogs in comedy movies
I think she's buying drinks
Saturday afternoons are apparently that busy
Nope, that snake isn't real
Washing machines in Chinese
I can't really tell what the girl on the side is doing
Come on, toss in your coins
Away from the bustle, sort of
These sidewalks can be empty, too
But back to the uncles
Color stairs and McDonald's
We're heading back at this point, actually
They're still doing a new train line, so...
Let's cross the street first
And then it's time
Goodbye, umbrella! There's always next time
More downward escalators
This won't be empty for long
Orchard station, again
I know, I should be slapped
Donuts, right?
Well, hello again, ION Orchard
The place's a bit closed, with boy marshalls, too
In daylight it doesn't look so striking
They're prepping the Christmas lights opening
They get fast food too
I think you walk far because it looks far
New headlines and old headlines
Look closely, you see some Japanese school series
Transformers, bleargh
Again, ION is confusing
Shoe boxes, not those ones
If only our bones can talk...
This is just the basement. One of the basements.
I tried to go in but I can't fit in
Not my kind either
Ahh, iPods
Some random aerial shot
Charity with Lego bricks?
I had $2 but I didn't
That three-storey escalator
Believe me when I say this sells chocolate
Sequence ready?
This is that long escalator
And those two girls, unwitting subjects
My hand, steady on the rail
The camera, slightly uncooperative
The conversation, unrecorded
Well, it's a Saturday, so it must be fun
I press the shutter every five seconds or so
I told you it does take long
Pretty long
I think I ended up taking twelve photos
Then again I was wrong, and...
Yes, it's obvious I've run out of captions
And the subjects are gone, too (but they actually went back)
Apparently the first and only Dunkin' Donuts in the country
From one mall to another, via underpasses
Hello, Wheelock Place
Back to those magazines at Borders
It's no secret, my secret Demi Lovato crush-ish
Sorry, Emily, I covered you up
Gay guy?
More chocolates, and possibly a clueless Aussie
Night falls at Orchard corner Scotts
It's amazing who the camera chooses as subjects
The lights are almost on
But they're amazed at the architecture anyway
More lines at McDonald's stalls
They're lost, right? No, we are
Inside Tangs Market, which isn't really one
Dinner (and chopsticks)
Stalker photo! More details soon
This is a decoy
And yes, the lights are on
But these won't do any justice, so...
...why did I upload them again?
A bunch of motorcycles end this roll
