Count-down @ Marina Barrage



Last year, we gathered at Timbre at Art House for the New Year's countdown, but the view of the fireworks was blocked. This year, we heard that we may be able to catch a great view at the Marina Barrage, hence we head off to the area after dinner.

A huge crowd has already gathered by the time we have reached the place, despite it been only 10.30pm. We still managed to find a small area to sit and have our snacks and some wine before the countdown starts. Many avid photographers have set up their tripod, waiting for the moment to come.

I forgot to bring my tripod along, hence can only tried to capture the photo as stable as possible. Some random shots before the fireworks.







And the fireworks began!
But alas, the view was blocked by Marina Bay Sands building! >.<























A big turn-out!
But quite a disappointment for most of us

The red dot on the photo was actually the Kong Ming (Sky) Lantern.
Surprise to see it here in Singapore.

A group of people setting up the Kong Ming Lantern.....

And this had a pumpkin face! So funny! Usually wishes were written on these lantern before they are been released into the sky.
 
Hope 2012 will be a great year for everyone! Stay happy and healthy always!
