Pentax May Outing: Helix Bridge

For our May Pentax outing we went to the new Helix Bridge, a new footbridge spanning the Singapore River. The shape of the twisted metal is supposed to represent the helix structure of DNA. All very nice but unfortunately I just think it is just a vanity project to beautify the skyline and to complement the new integrated resort (read casino).



Being very warm and sunny, it was a perfect day to shoot some IR images. Took this shot of the Singapore River using the DA 21mm Limited. An IR image that was converted to black and white.




For the actual photos of the bridge, I decided to use a pseudo high contrast HDR treatment to the images. Used the DA 10-17mm fisheye and the DFA 100mm Macro WR for the close-up.
