I'd been waiting for the chance to go back and re-shoot this controversial landmark (last time it was so windy that only one photo was usable). As this was the first clear day since I came back from Singapore a month ago, I decided to go there for both day and night shots, and I got a lot of good ones. It was a beautiful evening; we don't see them like this very often.

	1980Nic says: Eric... not really; as I said above, we haven't had a clear day for a month. In fact, if anything it's been worse recently, even rain storms don't clear the thick smog. Posted 2 months ago. ( permalink )
