Spiral staircases, Bugis

    Newer Older

    At some point it was ranked #51 for December 12 2005 on Flickr Explore, according to Flagrant Disregard's Scout. This is the first of my pictures to make it to Explore.

    These spiral staircases painted in candy colours belong to the backs of narrow shophouses in the Bugis area. It's near-impossible to get a good group picture when you're nearer, but I finally found the perfect solution - I zoomed in from across the road. Thank goodness for 12x optical zooms!
    Beezy has a wonderful take on similar staircases, which I suspect are nearby: www.flickr.com/photos/beezy/63240854/in/set-1275373/

      Awesome shot, perspective and colours, too. I have seen spiral
      staircase but none as beautiful blend of colours. Love this shot!

      I love these stairs. Always think it's such a shame that they're hidden away down those back streets in Bugis. Great shot!
