Marina Bay Sands not only has a beautiful exterior – the interior is just as visually stunning! Vibrant colors and tons of leading lines allow for interesting compositions.

Best time
Night
Since this is an interior shot, all months are suitable to photograph within the Marina Bay Sands.
At night the lights within MBS turn on making the scene livelier and vibrant. Day time photography also works, but I feel it’s more visually appealing at night.
Field tips
By using a wide-angle lens (11mm) you’ll be able to maximize the capture of Marina Bay Sands’ interior.
Since this location is a low-light environment a tripod could be very helpful. Although I didn’t use one, there is room to set one up!
Be patient for people action on the ground floor to enter your frame; it’ll help make your foreground more dynamic.
