[kuantoh] Tampines Eco Green Sunrise 17-04-2011

[kuantoh]

No sleep, worked OT overnight till 5am, head home, packed gears and met uncle Tom to revisit this place. 2 years ago, this place was so beautiful and unforgettable. 2 years on, NParks converted it to a nature reserve and named it Tampines Eco Green.

Coupled with previous night rain and great morning with clear skies, the mist was as thick as it could be. Sun rays were as fierce as they could be, new man made lakes here and there, so many angles to shoot. The sacrifice of sleep was worth it.

Glad that u all like the shots.

Huatman, the place has been around for many years. In 2009, a few of us did pay a visit there.

For those interested in making a trip down now, can refer to the thread link as follows. The paths are now well paved, unlike the past. It's not officially opened yet, but the barriers have been taken down in one area so can enter via there.
