dont mind me ask but where u got the info?
One more thing to add:
Esplanade waterfront and Helix brigde - Firework will reach max 2 and 1/2 height of MBS.
See sample: http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos..._421007764050_529924050_4884269_7110287_n.jpg
Merlion waterfront, One Fullenton waterfront and MBS waterfront - Fireworks will reach max 3x height of MBS
Cliffer pier and Marina waterfront - Firework will reach max 2x height of MBS
This will give you a rough guide of how much sky to allow for fireworks. There is no need to capture too much water as you will not get an image of the fireworks reflecting on water. But NOTE MBS will give you a nice reflection of the fireworks depending of your location.

If anyone of you still wants to take fireworks at marina barrage than this is how it will turn out. Good luck.

Nice firework. Thanks for sharing the infor.
If you Having been to the opening you should be able to get a rough idea of it.
yea..i was @ the opening.

last handheld.
1)
2)
3)
i asked ericlin81 cos the info i have is very diff from he has.
oh well.good shoot~!
@iAltair - yap, your location if i am not wrong is at Cliffer pier or marina waterfront right? that is why it is max 2x height of MBS.
@syc77 - nice balance of exposure between background and fireworks. Wouldn't it be better if the fireworks is above MBS and not cutting MBS? That is why i dont recommend taking fireworks from MBS.
Ideally the best shot of firework in my opinon is infront of one fullerton to Cliffer pier. But you may need wide angle lens.

Ya... It's does cut into MBS but I don't mind. A bit bored of the usual spots most ppl go.
I don't think there's a best spot for this fireworks. It's just wat u want to capture in ur frame.
Marina Waterfront.

They closed the Helix, and actually the view from Helix was almost blocked by either the incomplete museum or the stage.
MBS waterfront directly in front of shopping mall is partially blocked by the construction.
Still, I feel, for YOG, the 'best' location is at either merlion or one fullerton. Shoot the MBS as back ground. But a bit boring to see all the same fireworks from same location

Yap, agree. I was at one Fullerton. The firework was like ****. They just throw everything up all at once. Only the first shot of firework is ok. Good to look at, bad for photographers. Actually I intend to go up to the top of Fullerton bay hotel - lantern bar but someone book the whole place liao, if not than that is another good place to take fireworks.
