Hi all,

Is this the place where you can take only bus 82 to go? Looks like a very good place to take pictures...

Great pictures!!

Yes it is, there's only bus service 82 which takes you all the way to the end and reach punggol end. Or you can come in from the other end of the punggol connector which is behind the institute of mental health if I'm not wrong. That you'll have to walk or cycle :)

Not everyone who reads newspapers understands what pictures can depict things.
 

As this place becomes popular, hope that pollution will be minimal.

Very nice. The thing about mine was I couldn't expose the foreground rocks at all. Everything was black. Any advice?
 

use a GND to reduce the brightness of the sunlit sky.

Use already leh. But still the sky looked fine but lower part is underexposed.
 

yeah the rocks were challenging because of the low tide. the problem is, if it were higher this formation may not have surfaced. anyway, PP-wise i blended the rocks separately with some manual curves adjustments where i felt i wanted more detail.

try with a stronger GND? but the easiest way is probably try to lift the shadow details in post or manually blend two exposures metered separately for the foreground & background.

Looks like there's no way to expose both foreground and background and snap that photo. I agree that having to blend 2 pictures , one foreground and one background, would be the very good way to do it.
