Raid, I agree with you, its a difficult decision whether to include people in the Wheelock shot. I first came at 5PM, the security stopped me: no camera please. I walked away and came back at 7Pm, I happily discovered the security guy was gone.
When I kneed on the ground and pointed the big camera upward, I did not get anyone to pose. everyone looked at me, and the roof top. To be safe I took more than 10 shots, some are un-manned.
you need to shoot at around 7:20PM to catch the dusk blue. Normally I arrive at least 1 hour earlier to position my camera.
To hotsshooter: thank you for visiting my exhibition website. If u got problem viewing the pix, right-click mouse, select show pictures, you should be able to see them. My Singapore exhibition was in March 2005, its already over. I am trying to contact the National Library on a new possible exhibition. Once confirmed I will make a noise in the forum.
To 1911: For the Expo shot, the lens is Sigma17-35mmF2.8-4, set at 20mm. I use EOS 1ds Mark II camera body set on tripod, Gitzo 1227 MK II with Velbon 273 ball head. Some street shots were done by a pocket DC, Canon A620.

This is a little aside. I wonder if someone would be interested to participate in an 8-day Tibet photography tour this July. I am now working with PSS to organize the trip. The group will be limited to maybe 10 members. I will be the photography guide for the Tibet trip.
FYI, I have just finished a book about travel, love, and photography in Tibet, 100K words with 150 photos. It can be read online here: http://www.999kg.com/tibet.htm The book was written in Chinese, I am not good in English writing, sorry for those who cant read Chinese, you can see the pix anyway.
I will be visiting Jakarta 11 -16 January. So see you guys later.
