Ya... finally paid a visit there after some time. Do be careful of the soft ground at certain areas near the water if u gg there though. There are some parts which are really soft and sinks. Heard that some ppl drown there be4 coz saw a lot of incense paper scattered around there.

Wah... these are really beautiful pictures you have there.
#3 was particularly attractive - 7pm at dusk, just about the right window of time when the blue-ness of the sky sets in. And your GND enhanced the sky. Lovely!
Would love to take a nice, romantic walk to Tampines Quarry one of these evenings.

Wow KT, the filters stacking really worth it. Makes so much difference from mine.

This shot is nice! Love the way the small stump out of water contrasts against the big barren tree in background. Nice colors too!

all fantastic shots!

btw, where is this tampines quarry location? is it accessible to the public?

Hi bro,

I m a noob, so wanna ask:

Is the blue in the sky achieved through pp?

Also the surface of the water is very still, is it achieved through pp as well?

To satisfy all ppl query, i have attached a map below. Do take caution when walking along the water banks as some of the ground are pretty soft.

Hi there. At different times of the sunset, the colors will vary. The later it goes, the blue gets darker as u can see from 1840 hrs to 1906 hrs. I have also used CPL which sort of increased the contrast of the blues in the skies. The water is pretty still there, but i stacked a NDs and CPL with GND to sort of stop down more light to open the shutter longer to achieve even smoother textures. Hope this helps.
