Citycab Building Carpark Look Down

avatar
@nickkloo
A uniquely Singaporean spot of our local cabs. It’s rare to find so many cars densely packed together. (Drone) (a permit is required if flying a drone weighing more than 7kg, within 5km of an airport/military base, or higher than 200 feet)

Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Mid-day
All months of the year are suitable to photograph Citycab Building’s carpark.
Visit during mid-day (12-3pm) when the sun directly shines onto the carpark; you’ll likely have little or no shadows from the neighboring buildings. You can still manage to capture the bright cab colors earlier in the day or during sunset. Since it’s a commercial building the carpark is usually packed with cabs, so don’t worry about visiting and not having a sufficient amount of cabs to capture.

Field tips

A permit is required if flying a drone weighing more than 7kg, within 5km of an airport/military base, or higher than 200 feet.
Be sure to check the weather conditions before flying. Strong wind, low clouds or rain will result in signal interference increasing the risk of crashing or losing the drone.
There are a lot of trees around the perimeter of the field, so distance yourself a bit to keep a strong drone signal.
Because of its architectural structure, consider making use of lines for framing the shot. But, don’t allow the boundaries to confine any room for creativity.
