shot the last dragon

[attap seed]

saw this scene as my bus sped pass.

went back to shoot another day.

still can recall this type of dragon in the mid of my childhood days. of course, being a very "senior" person, i still ve memories of dragons that pre-dates this. the type where body is made of planks, and head constructed by wielding many pieces of steel bars together.

and the sand is real. not like the foam sheets used today. but kids now cant play w sand anymore. they get hand-foot-and-mouth disease.








-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i was waiting for some human interest to appear in the pic.

but, sensed something amiss after 20min. there is jus nobody around.

then it struck me that the few blocks in the vicinity are empty. devoid of human.

without knowingly, i went up the block for an aerial view point of the dragon. the lift appears to be working.

wandering around the neighbourhood gave me the "i am legend" kind of feeling. only 1 unit among that that few blocks shows signs of being occupied.

gave me a creepy feeling.

from the court order pasted on the doors, some units were possessed in 2002.

hmm, why arent the entrances sealed up? will the empty blocks be safety hazards and harbour some crooks?



a view of the block from behind. note the shut windows and empty carpark.

Wow.. where was this taken at?

[dingzyangz]

wah... really very nostalgic...

you even included the block number in the dragon's eye in the 1st pic. haha.

Hey I stayed in that block 9th story at the right corner when I was very young. Played on that dragon for years.....digged holes to set traps in the sand to make people fall in while I watch from a far too.....

[Redsun]

wow nowadays its near impossible to find that dragon anymore
