Stamford

Posted on May 15, 2010

Went for a photography class today and couldn’t resist this (almost cliche) shot of the iconic Sir Stamford Raffles statue against the dramatic clouds.

    This is a really nice shot. What time was this? The sky was white this morning. But then again, you have a DSLR :-)

    This was morning around 9ish. I tweaked it a little so its a bit more dramatic. Maybe you should move to DSLR too :)

    Thanks. I had the clouds to help me out.

    Love that we can still see a little detail on of his back. It’s not cliched if it’s the back view. ;)

      You think so? I think there must be a million pics of that statue on the Internet.

      Thanks for your comment. I had to tweak the original to make it pop. Hopefully it’ll stand out from the million other pics.

    Okay, looked through the first 100 in Google Images and none of them even look like yours.

    Hmm. How do I get notified of replies to my comments?
