iPhone Custom Ringtones - Length Issue

I finally figured out why some music cannot be imported as ringtone into my iPhone 4. It's because they are more than ~30 seconds. I use the Get Info->Options->Stop Time to reduce the playback time and then import as ringtones. And it works!

Kani Mayo

This kani mayo helps me to resolve my hunger at night. :)
When I'm hungry at night, it's too inconvenient to go out and buy food. This kani mayo is ready food which I can just take out of the fridge and eat - convenient and tasty.

Hanging Fish at Marina Bay Sands

I found a new snack - steamed fish. I like to eat Korean seaweed. But it is expensive as each pack comes with few pieces and they are salty. An 20-cm grouper only costs S$4.30 and it's healthy and tasty! 

Grouper reminds me of the floating fish art piece at Marina Bay Sands. We took this photo few days ago. The spiky fins on its back seem to suggest it is grouper. Correct me if I'm wrong. :)

Nando's Peri Peri Chicken

Our first time at Nando's. It has this famous peri peri flame-grilled chicken. It lives up to its name - very delicious BBQ chicken! The peri peri fries are very nice to. Peri peri is a type of African chilli. We've definitely added a new eating place to our dining list. :)

Beautiful Changi Beach

I went to Changi Beach a few times as it is a beautiful place for photography. But my dear hasn't. Going with her is a different feeling - we explored the place together, watched sunset together.... 

Silhouette of people casting net in the sea.


Clouds, sky, sea and trees are beautiful creation of God.


I saw this little fellow resting on the rock and quickly took a picture of it. Pretty satisfied with the sharpness of Canon S90 lens. :)


The BBQ stingray here is very tasty!


A wide-angle view.


Nice collection of sail boats neatly parked.


Interesting formation on the beach.


We covered the entire Changi Beach walk. I think it is not exactly a long stretch. We definitely enjoyed ourselves.

Helix Bridge and MBS at Night

Our first time on the Helix Bridge at night! The spot lights out of the ArtScience museum are spectacular. Reflection of the lights of the bridge and waterfront is beautiful too. 

Moon over Marina Bay Sands.  


I love this wide-angle scene with silhouette of tiny people.

MBS waterfront area is so huge, gives me the feeling that I'm at airport. :)

The lighted up ArtScience museum is beautiful too.

Heavy Rain After Weeks of Super Hot Weather in Singapore

 After weeks of super hot weather in the month of May, I guess nearly 36 degree, it finally rained - heavily!


The rain was so heavy that distant flats in Sengkang were not visible. It came packaged with lightnings and very loud thunder too. 

Sun Rise

Sengkang Floating Wetland

Went to the Sengkang floating wetland. Can you spot the mangosteen on the floating platform? 
The engineering behind the floating platform.

The bridge connecting to the floating wetland. Nice water area!

Waterfront area is always breathtakingly beautiful.


Photographer shooting under the bridge.


Walking towards the sunset.


Fish swimming beside the plants.


Reflections of the trees on the water.

Korean Strawberry

We bought some Korean strawberries. They are a bit to the sour side.
