Fountain of Wealth & Suntec City

avatar
@smilewithjeryl
Fountain of Wealth is not your typical fountain. As of 1998, it’s part of the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest fountain in the world. Hosting daily laser performances and live songs, the 45-foot-high fountain is surrounded by towering buildings, amplifying its grandeur even more.

Tips

When to go

Best season

All months

Best time

Night
The month of year has no impact on this location; the Fountain of Wealth lights up beautifully year round!
The Fountain’s lights turn on in the evening. The area is not usually overloaded with people, but expect more cars during the weekdays (less cars on weekends). Laser performances and live songs occur daily between 20:00 - 21:00.

Field tips

You need a wide angle (16-35mm) or fish-eye lens to capture the magnitude of the fountain and the massive Suntec towers in the background.
I stood on a plant container to get extra height. This allowed me to capture the entire ring into my frame and the symmetry of the Suntec towers in the background.
I used a high ISO to increase the illumination of the fountain.
