周末愉快!我在新加坡中央商业区的高楼大廈拍摄的《倒影彩画》组的照片刊登在今天(八月二十一日)联合早报 zbNOW/早报现在【光影】版 。感谢 Lianhe Zaobao 联合早报 !
河水流经之处必有生命。新加坡中央商业区的高楼大廈濒临新加坡河,少有双面向的独特位置。我一路沿缓缓流淌的新加坡河向滨海湾走去,欣赏新加坡河两边不同的景物,也拍摄河岸边众多的大楼反光和水面中互相辉映的倒影。每一转眼都是另一番美景,都市全景尽揽眼底。一直觉得水中倒影有着独特的美,仿佛置身于仙境之中,就象神话故事中的宝镜一样,令人心旷神怡。其实拍倒影照片,不只是借水,还要借天空,借平静的水面和摄影的技巧,才能拍出称心如意的照片 :) My "City Skyline Reflection Along The Mouth of Singapore River" photo series is published in full coverage in today's zbNOW/早报现在. Thank you so much and much appreciated ! I took a scenic walk down memory lane with Singapore River as I have a special liking for this part of the Singapore River. Unconsciously, this is also one place that I would tend to go for some respite, or when I need to have time for quiet reflections during weekends. Furthermore, the colonial buildings nearby the area somehow have an attractive appeal to me. I simply love their designs, especially when being reflected along the mouth of Singapore River. Capturing a perfect reflection is harder than it sounds because any amount of wind at all will cause ripples and blur the surface of the water. I spent one whole day from early morning until evening to capture beautiful water reflections to form the collection. The weather was absolutely perfect that day!

Artistic WayFinding Project (2) For Senior-Dementia-Friendly Community at Toa Payoh Bus Interchange13/8/2022 If you could remember, I documented some street art in Singapore which they have a noble cause in themselves, i.e. the Wayfinding Project at Ang Mo Kio Avenue 4 in 2020 and at Yishun in 2021 for seniors with dementia.
Today I am going to introduce another new wayfinding project. These murals are located at Toa Payoh bus interchange. They are part of an initiative by Dementia Singapore and SBS transit to make more dementia-friendly bus interchanges and MRT stations. The bus interchange is segmented into five unique zones as a mural of a childhood game or activity represents each zone. These colour-coded images would make it easier for seniors with dementia to find their way home, as explained in all my previous blog posts. Nostalgic images could help to tap on memories to stimulate parts of the brain. This also aids in long-term memory and cognition. There are also directional floor stickers, so that if the elderly want to board a particular bus service, they just have to follow the directional arrows, which show the mural picture to lead the person directly to the boarding berth. Hopefully, this would allow seniors with dementia to feel less anxious when trying hard to remember their routes back home. The five colourful murals are: |
