Just go to the business district of your town and just sit back and look for patterns from the building,here's a tip,shoot when the sun is at a low angle around early evening sun or after sunrise to get some cool shadows
Sun sets in NY around 4:30 now... but I don't think i have the camera or lens I should say.

But i will true to mimic... one day.
The new Image looks... Caribbean-British influence... Love the colors.
Well,I would say the photographer would be more important than the gears,no doubt the gears do help!
Yea,old Singapore buildings were heavily influenced by the British architectural culture because of Singapore's long history as a British colony before and after WWII
It stood a significant role in the monopoly of the South-East Asian trade route to China and Singapore was at the center of that route
So because of it's significant role in the trade route,Singapore was the HQ of all the British colony in South East Asia
But now,Singapore's architectural culture is leaning towards a more Manhattan style because of it's limited land and high rental prices
Sorry if my history lessons are boring you

I'm a history addict
It must be cool to have sunset at 430!My Dad will be going to Los Angeles to represent the Singapore Airport groups for a tour at LAX
Do you know it will be snowing there?We Singaporeans are living in a tropical climate whole year round and we have a fetish for winter

while people from US and Europe have a fetish for warm temperature,many of my Western friends like to wear collared long sleeves and just drink a warm coffe under the hot sun
