The purple area is smacked right in the center of Orchard :bigeyes:

According to NEA website, it's not high tide. In fact, at around 8 am, it was the lowest tide level at 0.0 meters! Hmm, so how can such a flash flood happen? :think: http://app2.nea.gov.sg/tidetime.aspx

I haven't read about your underground economic theory but I find it very intriguing. You mean a premium airline would purposely set up a budget subsidiary and then tell him to screw up his own budget business so that people will fly its own premium airline?

That's why our dear Mrs Goh said: "You pay peanuts, you get monkeys."

Hello there, happened to chance upon your thread and saw your beautiful pictures. I think we got the same lightning on 18 April 2010. Looks strikingly similar. Was it at around 7:47pm?

Actually there's a charge. For instance, if the current exchange rate of USD:SGD is 1:1.5 , they will calculate as 1:1.4625. Meaning instead of getting $1.50, you get $1.4625. It's 2.5%.

Looks like some kind of dragonfly nymph. Being predacious, it's likely to pose a danger to your baby mollies. Maybe you can throw it into a drain so it helps to eat mosquito larvae instead.

Excellent :thumbsup:...the last 2 looks like ground-to-cloud lightning? Any experts can confirm this?

True but that's just about it. In photographing butterflies, there are many opportunities to explore besides a dew-covered stationary butterfly. Wouldn't it be better if one can capture like what u did, a butterfly sipping from a flower? Or a butterfly in flight? Beautiful open-winged shots and...

Shooting butterfly is very challenging unlike most insects whereby you can use different types of flash techniques. Usually, we just use mounted flash on semi-auto modes. But if you are really lucky, for eg. a mating pair that does not get easily distracted, then you can try various techniques.

Your question is very strange :confused: I will try to answer. Irregardless of the focal length, and shooting at semi-auto exposure modes (like AV/TV priority), lighting should be the same right? Unless u are saying that by using a shorter lens, one has to go closer and hence might block out...

60mm is very short, even 105mm is short. The longer the better, nikon 200 micro? If u hv a 70-300mm lens, u can actually try using a +2 CU filter which u hv to focuss between 50-60cm away from the subject. As for aperture used, for a small butterfly like this and going close to 1:1, I would...
