Singapore Christmas Scenes

Thanks for that CGK... is my first impression. So so white. I remembered the previous year's decoration being lots of green lighting and rather colourful compared to this year's drab white.

Maybe it's supposed to evoke a winter landscape, SQFAN ... notwithstanding the balmy tropical weather.

Can't wait for my one-evening stopover at Christmastime.

Or else, is it my camera which make them all white?

Indeed - agree with your assessment of what STPB is trying to do.

My post made references to the colour. I should have posted about the style of previous years. It's was more 'fluidic' and there were lots more lights; with greens and reds blending well together. I believe MovieMan posted some pictures in the past.

When I was heading to Food Republic to meet upright man, I thought why tourists taking pictures. That's when I realized the x-mas lights were on. But I was late for the meet. Thus only took the picture in the section where I am familiar with, i.e. Orchard and Scotts.

Yup--that's true.

Here are a few for comparison--taken two years ago. Previously posted elsewhere, but since it is that season again...









It does look more colorful than this year's lights.

So they say "Merry Christmas" rather than "Happy Christmas" in Singapore (see first of CGK's pics)?

Two years on, still awesome pics, MovieMan.

I was wondering what they would look like this year. Last weekend they had most of the decorations up but not yet lit. Thanks for sharing the photos!

sigh, not long until I'm seeing those lights for real

We can ask our friends who based in SIN to take the pictures in the same location as MovieMan's to make real comparison.

Excellent, I'll see those next week. When did they switch them on ?.

But, I was in Singapore 12th November when taking those pics. Hmm perhaps MAN Flyer can post the current ones... I did not see that HRH SQFAN posted any from his trip last week.
