here are some of my shots taken (actually i only took 9 shots cos the fireworks display was so short!)

i went to marina bay - the reclaimed land area to shoot. i was surprised that not even a single photog was there. i repeat - NOT A SINGLE PHOTOG, only about 4 cars parked along the road with families inside. when i mean photog it means at least got tripod, not shoot with handphones. the location is just a short 5-10 mins leisurely stroll from marina bay mrt station. u have to walk through the underpass under the ECP and once u are out from the other side, the entire curve road provides a good view point with the marina centre buldings as a backdrop.

all shot using my humble canon g3. too bad the smallest aperture is f8 - that's why my trails are a bit fat. also i'm using a lousy tripod and it was quite windy yesterday, so i think my camera was swaying with all the camera strap flying about, thus the trails are a bit crooked.
 

a nice shots you have over there

roughly know where it is, thanks
 

Hi hi, what is the focal length used for your above pics?
 

Thanks aloy, I might consider gg there since its not too crowded.
But cant get much of the buildings due to the distance from there, would it... hmm
Thanks anyway!

about 100mm 35mm equivalent cos i didn't zoom in all the way on my 4x zoom
 

woo...nice shoots meh. ;)
 

to harrynkl: maybe i'll be going on tuesday, but i will confirm by tmr. if i'm going i will be going with some of my friends but they will not be shooting

to tec: maybe can zoom in more but risk cutting off the fireworks trail or shoot vertically. too bad the suntec buildings were not lighted up.
