Singapore: Shooting it Like a Pro

Said to house a relic of the living Buddha, this shrine lies at the heart of Chinatown. The interior is rather dim, but flash photography is greatly frowned upon. What's more, Ahmed notes, a flash would completely ruin the atmosphere of the frame and tripods would be very obtrusive. He has compensated with a wide aperture (f2.8), slow shutter speed (1/25th of a second) and a steady hand. And remember, this is a place of worship, so dress appropriately.
