Photo of the Day: Cavalia is an equestrian theatrical performance that leverages innovative multimedia displays and multi-disciplinary performances. It is now running in Singapore from 12 August to 14 September 2014.

This pretty lady kept looking in my direction, so I took a portrait for her.
The production was created by Normand Latourelle, one of the co-founders of the famed Cirque du Soleil.
“Cavalia” is a fabricated word, inspired by the Spanish and French words for horse (caballo and cheval) and the English word cavalry.
Hailing from Montreal in Canada, the lavish production involves 50 horses and 46 riders, aerialists, acrobats, dancers and musicians from all over the world.
Since the show’s debut in 2003, some 4 million people from North America, Europe, Australia and the Middle East have watched the show.

There has been more than 2,400 performances over the course of ten years. The 50 horses in Cavalia comprises 11 different breeds.

Photo of the Day: I was walking to Fullerton Bay Hotel for the launch of the BlackBerry Z30 on Thursday evening when this majestic cumulonimbus cloud caught my eye.
It was towering menacingly over the Marina Bay Sands and was the only thing I’ve come across that was capable of counterbalancing the imposing hotel buildings.

It was getting dark and I grabbed a quick snapshot with the Samsung NX2000 that I had with me.
