    Pulau Ubin is an obscure offshore island of the city-state that still has a rural resident population reputably living as mainland Singaporeans did fifty years ago. I chased this baby Malayan Water Monitor with my camera whilst balanced on my bicycle; it was very curious and not at all frightened of me as I fidgeted around the mudbank with my camera, looking straight into the lens before swimming further into the pool. by: hfrancoise Views[201] Singapore's urban landscape is fascinating and reminiscent of scenes from a 21st Century Jungle Book as prehistoric vines and creepers are suspended from trees wearing coats of parasitic plants, that are presided over by utilitarian state-built HDBs where much of the population live. Singaporeans do not live in as much luxury and are not as rich as many foreign perceptions of the city-state envisage. by: hfrancoise Views[330] The colonial architecture of China Town feels almost ghostly, the snaking lanes and strung up lanterns are part of the exotic Asian Singapore that many imaginations of the city overlook. by: hfrancoise Views[153] Blu Jaz Cafe setting up the sound system before the reggae music began; the Blu Jaz is a part of hidden Singapore and a hub for culture and the arts, worlds away from the famous commercialism of Orchard Road. by: hfrancoise Views[170] A dazzling neon dragon of the Autumn Festival celebrations is reflected in the rippled water of the Singapore River, at Clarke Quay, a well known night spot in the city. by: hfrancoise Views[146]
