Could you use a tripod inside the exhibition hall?

No problem with tripod. Lots of newsreporter bring big video tripod. There alot of space for it. But not too sure today as it is sunday..
Ok, lots of flowers, landscape that covers two levels 4 & 6. So if you all are going to capture all this.. need micros, normal and wide angle lens or camera to go from the beginning to the ends. At least, minimum more than 300 pics or more if you are really interested in all of them. In singapore, you don't see so many flowers display indoors at any one time.. love all the flowers..

Enjoy .

Thanks, man.
The visitors are just right on Saturday, I think. The place is spacious and movement is far better.

Dan, thanks for the wonderful extra pics. The flora designs are really very good. I think yesterday was a good day to take pics in there.

Filter: Yes, the flowers are really very colorful. Don't miss the chance. Just borrow a lens from somebody!

milamber: Yep, Ricoh is right. You can bring a tripod. ^^

Was there too yesterday. Didnt want to go but was pester by gf. In the end, complain that i spend longer then she wanted there. Haha...its a great opportunity for flower lovers out there to take the shots now and I mean its real good chance.

Reasons:
1) Range of flowers is superb!
2) Indoor (no sunlight to make u perspire like in outdoor)
3) No wind ( the flowers STAYS STILL for u to take the shots steadily)
4) Tripod/Monopod can be use!
5) Spacious and movement is terrific ( me went on saturday which i thought it will be pack but not much)
6) Eye opener. Not just flower u can see much more decor and knowledge about the ecosystem.
7) Good exhibit to test and improve your skill.
8) Simply fabulous IMO.

Note: With fanciful lightings, light management is pretty tricky when taking shots.

Info:
Weekend Adult: $12
Weekday Adult: $6
Kids I think is half price.

Cheers!
