Did not bring tripod and had to use a ledge near merlion for these shots.
Please bear with the smokes.

Hi,yes no tripod as just finish a dinner somewhere there.
i saw your firework pics and like your unique composition.
i choose a rather safe spot.

Cool! We have the same shot but mine is taken from the bridge. Wanted to go down to the Merlion area but saw the massive crowd there.

This prove that it is not crucial to have a good tripod...using the heaviest cam in Canon series on the lightest tripod.

Thanks Sean,My setting is F16 on bulb mode,maybe because 1st firework no smoke so it's better,i regret not opening shutter longer on the 1st pic.
Yes the merlion is distracting,will try to improve framing better next time.

Thanks for your comment.
i also heng there's a ledge nearby for me to rest my cam there.
i love your fashion show shoots.

[mohgui]

nice series you've got there. however, the people in the foreground really spoil the otherwise super shots.

[S11loop]

i think that the human element in the foreground makes the picture looks more lively and really vibrant
