It’s a new day, new year, with new beginnings.
Let’s hope the new year brings better times and leave behind the ravages of the COVID-19 pandemic.
May the new decade begin!
Closer to home in Singapore, the skies opened up today to usher in the new decade. Video shot with Google Pixel 4 XL.

Here’s wishing all Muslim friends: “Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri”!
Masjid Sultan, or Sultan Mosque, in the Kampong Glam district of Singapore. Completed after 2 years in 1826, the mosque can accommodate up to 5000 people in mass prayer.
It’s Hari Raya Puasa today.
After a whole month of fasting during Ramadan, today is the day that our Muslim friends have been looking forward to.
Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri!

Photo of the Day: Taken by Byron Moray Pittendrigh, 2nd runner-up for Theme 1: Vision (Open Category).
2nd Runner-up in Theme 1: Vision (Open Category) in this year’s Canon PhotoMarathon. Photo credit: Byron Moray Pittendrigh.
A very atmospheric shot – many hands grasping at a light source.
An apt illustration for an alien movie, or “The X-Files”.
Really love the lighting!
