Singapore’s premier island resort, Sentosa, offers the spectacular Songs of the Sea laser, light and sound show, as well as other funfilled activities like the Sentosa Luge and Skyride, Sentosa 4D Magix and CineBlast. Climb to the top of the 37-metre tall Merlion to view Singapore’s impressive skyline.

A day may not be enough for you to appreciate Singapore's little island getaway. Sentosa's attractions cater to everybody and there's never a moment when you will run out of things to do or see - whether you're here for your honeymoon or a family get-together; for just a lazy day on the beach or an educational exploration.

One of the latest of these attractions is the Tiger Sky Tower - an elevated 360-degree viewing deck. For more scenic views, go to the Mouth Gallery Viewing Deck of the Merlion, the icon of Singapore. A favourite among visitors, the Merlion's 320 scales of glass-reinforced concrete shimmer with dazzling colours at night.

For military history enthusiasts, visit the World War II bunkers, underground passages and cannons of Fort Siloso.

If you want a close encounter with the marine kind, come to the Underwater World, one of the biggest oceanariums in Asia. Alternatively, visit the Night Ocean or the Dolphin Lagoon featuring pink dolphins.

If you seek the thrill of having 2,500 butterflies flying around you, come and see the Butterfly Park. Displays of other insects can be found at the adjacent Insect Kingdom, which is home to 3,000 rare species and 5,000 fireflies. A trek along the Nature Walk / Dragon Trail provides encounters with monitor lizards, spotted doves and long-tailed macaques.

And if you want real action, test your nerves and bearing at the Flying Trapeze in Rasa Sentosa Resort. How about some furious spins at a 650-metre luge in Sentosa Luge? Or why not experience a state-of-the-art interactive experience at Sentosa 4D Magix?

If you've had enough of excitement, relax and unwind at the Spa Botanica. If you plan to stay the night on Sentosa, check into any one of the hotels, offering a choice of luxury, family and chalet-type accommodation. In the evening, watch the nightly attraction water jets, lasers, special computer imaging, and stunning flame bursts set against dramatic music.

The home of world-class leisure and living in Singapore. Where sun-kissed beach haven meets shopping paradise, chic nightlife mingles with the wonders of nature. Everything you could ask for, all on one location. Set on the Southern coast of Singapore, Sentosa is a thriving waterfront hub with something for everyone and any idea of pleasure.

For some outdoor rest and relaxation, head to the island resort of Sentosa and take your pick from its three beaches. Soak up the sun, sea and some solitude at tranquil Tanjong Beach or partake in beach activities like canoeing, cycling or rollerblading at Siloso Beach. You can also chill out at Palawan Beach which boasts several beach bars and eateries. Sentosa is easily accessible by public transport and is within minutes from the heart of town.

    And life's like an hour glass glued to the table.

    Here's a re-edit of one of my old favorites using many new processing techniques which I now prefer, and also a new vision for this piece. In this version, I wanted to depict our city as a showcase, a performance, featuring the MBS laser show and a concert at the Esplanade outdoor theatre simultaneously. Day after day, Marina Bay treats spectators to a grand spectacle of dazzling light and music, perhaps to draw in the tourists and the accompanying revenue from tourism.

    It's really amazing how we can go back to our old "masterpieces" and look at our progress since then. This flickr update has allowed me to re-visit some of these oldies, and I simply cringe at some of the edits I made back then. I'm really glad to be the photographer I am today, but hey, I've barely scratched the surface.

    Hope you guys like this, and if you do, a like/fav is appreciated!

    Written In The Stars

    **View On Black** (Please Press "L")

    The place where we are
    Was written in the stars



    www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNTjxWhDSgg

    Stay with me
    Don't fall asleep too soon
    The angels can wait for a moment

    Come real close
    Forget the world outside
    Tonight we're alone
    It's finally you and I

    It wasn't meant to feel like this
    Not without you

    Don't be afraid
    I'll be right by your side
    Through the laughter and pain
    Together we're bound to fly

    I wasn't meant to love like this
    Not without you

    When I look at my life
    How the pieces fall into place
    It just wouldn't rhyme without you
    When I see how my path
    Seem to end up before your face
    The state of my heart
    The place where we are
    Was written in the stars

    I Can Spread My Wings

    **View On Black** (Please Press "L")

    And when I feel like there is no one that will ever know me
    there you are to show me.....

    it just feels like it is impossible to fly
    But with you I can spread my wings
    To see me over everything that life may send me


    www.youtube.com/watch?v=KipSEcE6gGM&list=FLpt1qpOq9s5...

    When it rains it pours and opens doors
    And floods the floors we thought would always keep us safe and dry
    And in the midst of sailing ships we sink our lips into the ones we love
    That have to say goodbye


    And as I float along this ocean
    I can feel you like a notion that won't seem to let me go

    When I look to the sky
    Something tells me you're here with me
    And you make everything alright
    And when I feel like I'm lost
    Something tells me you're here with me
    And I can always find my way when you are here

    At Underwater World Singapore, a 'voyage to the bottom of the sea' begins at the water’s edge, with shallow rock turtle and ray pools. Be greeted next by brightly colored corals and exotic ocean dwellers (including moray eels, sea dragons and jelly fishes) before you embark on a spectacular underwater journey through our 83-metre-long moving travelator with a tunnel housing the majestic rays, fearsome sharks, great shoals of other fishes and a host of other creatures that inhabit the ocean depths.

    The Underwater World also includes a Dolphin Lagoon which is home to some Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins, also known as the pink dolphins. Several "Meet-the-Dolphins" sessions are held daily to allow visitors to enter the waist-deep pool and interact with the dolphins at close proximity. A more involved "Swim-with-the-Dolphins' program, where visitors can interact extensively with the dolphins, is also available
