 A place in Singapore where several iconic attractions can be photographed in a single picture. The photo was taken at Marina Barrage and at the far end you can see the Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and Supertrees, the Flyer, the CBD. And I happened to chanced upon lightning strikes the same fateful night.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

Nice skyline of a city at night but there is so much going on that I don't know where to look - Jake also mentioned this problem in his comment with the lightning strike being lost amidst the clutter. There are many fascinting elements in this pic but they all detract from one another. Learn to look for the one thing that makes your photo special, and emphasize it. Crop in and play with it in post (but read the rules carefully to ensure you aren't breaching any of them) and then enter it. Remember too that in Free Study, everyone trots out their very best pic taken that month, so competition is very tough and you must have more than just a pretty pic to enter.

Hope this helps, feel free to PM me with any questions.

There's so much here that the lightning strike is practically lost - and that's what sets this apart. Wondering what you could have done to emphasize that in post? It's a well captured cityscape that dwarfs the one thing that makes it unique.

I like the lightning capture and the colored lights. I wonder where in Singapore this was shot?
