There's no better time to grab my camera, head out and take a walk than when there's a lot of family issues running through my head. So that's what I did. Since I have a very unique and special shoot to prepare for, I went ahead to scout out some locations.
This one is at Punggol Park and its surrounding locations. Not a bad place, plenty of places that one can do interesting stuff with. But the color of this place is a little dull. Water is brownish and most objects are of dull yellow or green hue. The few brightly painted places naturally took center stage. Though honestly, this shoot has truly revealed to me how wrong I was about landscape shots and how I should do it in future. I always thought landscape is about... Landscape. Now I realize that landscape is 50% foreground (anything interesting and catches the eye, even if it's just a bench) and 50% landscape. I imagine I would take better landscape in future. And perhaps whenever in doubt, lie down on the floor. Unless it's full of ants ready to take a big bite on you (which was what happened...).

Right! Chair in the foreground, house in the back. Color is a little dull even after enhancement. Chair is good for a series of poses though probably with people, angle will change too. Orange roof makes interesting background.
Need to wait for a day with more interesting sky and clouds and perhaps find a way to avoid the construction site to the left. The flowers can at most be used as props and this scene may be best avoided to prevent the flowers from stealing too much attention from the subjects.
Again a place for interesting poses and things to do. More interesting than a bench.
A long straight, beautiful walkway for all the hand holding, leaning strolling goodness. Bumped up the color intensity a little too much though.
This is very interesting prop. A stool to bump up the subject's height and woooo... The options and opportunities!
Another sweet sweet long path way near Tampines Road. With lush green plants too.
Another sweet sweet piece of prop. Exercising, smiling, movement... Yea!
Ok, that's
Punggol Park. Next stop, probably Punggol water way.
Oh btw, the label system. Going to put down some labels in my title to classify photography section so I can find what I need. Yeap.
