Default Supreme Court

The aliens are coming!!



Shot this while waiting for Singapore Fireworks Festival to start. It is a bit tight on the right as there was a lampost next to me.

Nice shot, I really like it

The only negative thing, I think there is perhaps just too much negative space at the top.

Edit: Also, looks slightly tilted, maybe move it a couple of degrees anti clockwise.

Thanks for pointing that out, I did not realise the slight tilt.

I wanted to give a sense of space for the UFO to lift off after it was done probing the judges.

Thanks for viewing

Looks like something out of the movie Independance Day. Love the juxtapositioning of your subjects. As have been mentioned, too much space on top.

i think they got the idea of disuising the flying soucer (escape pot for vip) as part of a building from "man in black".

Yeah, alien invasion!!

I feel that the picture looks cramped without the space, especially for the left side, since the dome would then be flush with the frame.

Thanks for C&C!

Yeah, the S2IS is a fun toy. S3IS looks sexier in black!

It did cause quite a HoHa when they built it.

No worries about editing the pic. I was thinking of making the flying saucer lift off, with a similar glow at the bottom. Will do it when I have some free time.

Unfortunatly that would not have been possible from where I was shooting. Had lamposts on both sides. Do not have the EXIF here, think this was shot between 300 to 400mm.
