i like this framing. Have been shooting alot at this place and notice that in the right, there are more buildings in white than the left.

That is because of the difference in the construction process..
while most of the buildings along the raffles area were constructed many years back which were mostly cladded using granite/stone/aluminum while the newer buildings on the left along the marina bay business district are using glass/steel cladding which are more widely used today.

Hi Naynoy, thanks for dropping by....:) Wow... so much detail... I'm small girl and don't really understand all about buildings but this is good knowledge you have given me. Thanks so much...:)

mind sharing the location you shot from? was it marina barrage?

Shot was taken from the new marina bay park which is beside the marina bay golf course.
 

I quite like your recent IRs, at least it's not just using the "gimmick" factor as a crutch and there is some thought in composition. Wish #188 had more space at the bottom for a more complete reflection.

You can try considering using the saturation tool to make the trees more snowyish if that's what you prefer.

Open Hue/Saturation - then select Yellow + Red (if you've done channel swap) and desat both channels. This will make the trees more "white". Of course for IR it's all optional, just depends on what you prefer.. :)

I gave my comments on #194 in Flickr... I think for #190 and #189 if you had walked further down it would have been even better, so that the Flyer doesn't blend in with any building. I would also exclude that building on the left, it is a little distracting. You went by car? I walked from Stadium MRT, and a long long long walk it was.. :bsmilie: And after that I walked a long long walk on the bridge which ended up in some bunch of grass and what seemed to be workers' quarters... :confused: :bsmilie: Wonder if there's a better way to access that place by public transport.
 

Hi uncle WK, thanks for dropping by. I was actually looking forward to a sunny day today and try more IR shots but turned out gloomy again. Yes composition too and trying to improve on it even in IR or anything.

The Hue/Saturation you suggested would be interesting and never thought about yellow + red to make the trees more white. For IR #188, noted.
Yes first thing I will do is channel swap.

For #190 and #189, I have to go back there at least a few times. Is a long stretch to find the right spot for the composition. For #194, I did reply in flickr and is really strange..

Wa... is really a long walk to go there... We went by car. I just ask my Dad and he said he went by Tanjong Rhu side and quite a drive in. I find this park is quite nice and a lot of interesting shots for landscape and IR too. Next time we can go together..

Thanks :)

#190 a really nice location :) the left building is part gardens by the bay, and it's a climate-moderated greenhouse. pretty place, had a sneak peek when i was there on official matters recently :bsmilie:
 

Hi Elavan, thanks for dropping by too... yes I heard that this is some kind of a garden and i quite like the structure of the building. Hope it will light up soon. Otherwise is too dark to take a shot at it. Thanks.
