Pasar Hindu

I pass this market for Hindus in Medan on many occasions. I had wanted to walk the market in day time and take some pictures. In fact, even when it is closed, it has many photo opportunities as well.


The Market is located at the T-junction. Scene from the peak hour.
The market in the afternoon.

South of Asia

I was at the southern most part of continental Asia - or so the sign says. The staircase to the twin observation towers.

Nice evening light

This is a Singapore Police poster to stop shoplifting.

I saw a dead spider on one of the fingers.

Waterfall - Man Made

I remembered visiting Jurong Bird Park when I was young in the early 1970s during Chinese New year. The park was opened in 1971. The waterfall was touted as the world's largest man-made water fall.

When I visited it nearly 40 years on, the waterfall is now the world's largest aviary waterfall. Things change. Progress has been made by others. Don't keep still. Keep moving!

Hot spot for a photo by the waterfall
