Street Photography in Punggol


Two days ago, I woke up really early just to reach Punggol before the first light. I made it on time and took the first shot (shown above) with my iPhone 6 Plus using Camera+ app. Really love the atmosphere. I continued to stroll along the park connector pavement like I'm having my morning walk or exercise, enjoying the morning fresh air and the surrounding environment.

Then I came to this spot and looked at it for a few moments before I lifted up my phone camera to make another shot. Upon previewing the photo, it looks like a black and white photo, hence I converted it in Snapseed, and this is how it looks like.


I like that 'S' shaped pavement on the right side where our subject just seen running into the scene as I pressed the digital shutter button. I like the tile textures on the sitting structure in the foreground, too and the casted shadows of the railing against the ground, in contrast with the overhead horizontal panels. A wall mural in the far background, somehow makes this photo more interesting.


This is the wall mural. Drawings of robots in different shapes and designs with dialogues, seem quite comedic. As the morning light spread across the Punggol sky, slipping through the overhead panels, leaving the strong street lamp to the far left of the frame, I made the shot.

I wish I could venture and explore more other parts of the area or other location in Punggol for more beautiful first light or twilight photos. But the sun was already rising up, and I think it gave me good reason for more future visits.
