Shoppes view of Skywalk & Marina Bay Sands Hotel

@sammmsation
Singapore's most unique attraction is often photographed from afar; this location plants you nearly directly beneath its colossal sloping towers for a more dramatic perspective.

Field tips

It’s all about finding the angle that suits your preference. I tilted my camera upwards and chose to emphasize the Marina Bay Sand (MBS) hotel and bridge, and cropped out the road below.
The MBS and skywalk give you fantastic leading lines to work with. I aligned the skywalk with the base of the MBS.
The MBS tends to reflect the sky, so be patient and capture that right moment!
