About the Image(s)
I have clicked this image last month in Garden by the Bay, Singapore, inside the Flower Dome. I used my Nikon D800E and my wide-angle lens Nikon 14-24.
The settings were, ISO-100, f/7.1, Focal length-16mm and Shutter Speed was 1/100
Later, little cropping and minor adjustments were done with level and curve in photoshop CC.

Welcome to our group! This is a very colorful image. The sweeping walk leads you through the image. Very nicely done. Posted: 03/18/2021 21:34:45

Hi Malabika. A warm welcome to you. I feel the walkway makes a lovely leading line that takes us into the image. The colours are beautiful. That glass ceiling of the Singapore Garden Dome is iconic. Great shot. Posted: 03/23/2021 01:29:57
Thank you very much Nadia. The flower dome in Garden by the Bay is indeed iconic in Singapore. Posted: 03/28/2021 10:58:51
Love the colors, love the subject, what a fun photo. I could see this as an excellent context photo for a collection of flower photographs. Good saturation, not overdone. Good composition getting in the path, people, and parts of the dome. Are those 'social distancing' squares on the path? The lanterns and the dome give it some cultural content and I would have guessed Singapore because I have read about the famous gardens. Posted: 03/30/2021 11:13:26
You are right Cynthia, those are the 'social distancing' squares. Posted: 03/31/2021 11:08:56
Welcome to the group! I agree with the compliments about your good composition: well-done, and a wide-angle lens is perfect for the situation. My only reservation is that the red lanterns and the gold bulls seem a little over-saturated to me, but maybe that's how they were. Posted: 03/30/2021 15:05:00
Beautiful colorful image! Very busy, lots of places for the eyes to go. I actually thought it was Phipps Conservatory in Pittsburgh PA at first. Having never been to Singapore (bucket list) I would not have recognized the place. The roof is very similar. Nicely done. Posted: 03/31/2021 07:14:25
Thanks Laurie!
This image was taken during the Chinese New Year. The colours red and gold are very prominently displayed during this festive. The colours were so vibrant that the moment you get inside the dome, you feel like you have been transported to a wonderland!! Posted: 03/31/2021 11:17:37
