The first one taken this night with G5 from the tiny balcony in the 21st floor of my hotel (Raffles The Plaza) in Singapore, showing the church-turned-to-restaurant Chijmes (http://www.expatsingapore.com/enjoying/chijmes.shtml). Second taken last June with 20D + Sigma 18-125.

Your first one is my favourite Olli, and for the lazy photographer, it can't get much easier than that - just open the door, shoot, and back to base all in about two steps! ;)

Thanks Sheldon and Dimitri. I slightly boosted the colors to give a 'Singapore feeling' to the picture.

A big problems were the halos around bright spotlights in the church picture, obviously due to the lens of G5.
