Sentosa Flower Festival

Yesterday I was on leave therefore arranged with Mr. Alfred Tan to visit the once a year Sentosa Flowers Festival to take some pictures. There were flowers from many different countries on display and many visitors from all over the world at the Sentosa Flowers Festival. Sometimes I have to wait quite a while for people to clear in order to take a flower from a certain angle but I enjoyed myself overall.

I used my Canon 40D with the 24-105f4 lens for these pictures and sometimes I add a Hoya +3 close-up filter to get closer to the flowers. I cropped all the photos into square format because I would loved to use my Hasselblad camera to photograph flowers but it is too much Hassel and too heavy to lug my Hassy gear there!

If you are flower lover and would like to see the rest of the photos I have taken, please visit my photos webpage at the following URL: http://ctsm88.smugmug.com/gallery/7218829_wcvkZ
