well, i'm sure the people whose photos you find "fresh" from overseas have the same idea for their own landscapes.
the american photographers over at naturescapes, for example, seem to take the same view, but never tire. it is still marvellous for me.
i have gone back to lower peirce reservoir many times and i haven't reused a single composition there. maybe that should tell you something.
also, how much of singapore have you covered? that's something i always ask when people say "singapore boring leh" "singapore repetitive".
i don't really fancy draken's style of processing sometimes, but he does have a load of interesting subjects that he takes the time to source out and shoot.
a few weeks back i viewed the gallery of an overseas photographer who had visited singapore. "no way", i thought, when i looked through his gallery, "this is singapore, but i haven't seen these views before!"
then after doing some research based on the landmarks, etc, and using google street view, i realised that his photographs were taken in the clarke quay/chinatown area.
singapore is running out of places? nah, but the people can't be bothered to look or go. i confess that at times, i'm guilty too.
recently i picked up a few photography mags in the library. one of the breathtaking covers i saw had a short writeup on the photographer in the magazine itself. it so happened that i found that same photo on flickr that very same day by accident:

do you know what is behind this photo? let me quote it for you:
in singapore, i have seen people posting online that they are unwilling to put their tripod into the mud.
in singapore, i have seen people complaining that the sea might damage their camera.
do you think they would walk 5 miles through a walking forest, and stay overnight? do you realise that he didn't just conjure his tent up from nowhere, but was entirely prepared to camp overnight in the rain?
no, singapore is not running out of places for landscape shots, it is running out of people who have the right sort of passion... to shoot. instead of having group outings to buddy hug and praise each others' photos.
