Lalang Field Photography



Have you always wanted to take some photo at a Lalang Field?

Lalang or blady grass is a species of grass in the genus Imperata cylindrical.

It is a perennial rhizomatous grass native to east and southeast Asia, India, Australia and eastern and southern Africa. It grows from 2 - 10 feet tall. The leaves are about 2 cm wide near the base of the plant and narrow to a sharp point at the top; the margins are finely toothed and are embedded with sharp silica crystals. The main vein is a lighter colour than the rest of the leaf. The upper surface is hairy near the base of the plant while the underside is usually hairless. Roots are up to 4 feet deep, but 1½ feet is typical in sandy soil.

Common names include speargrass, blady grass (Australia), lalang (Malaysia), silver spike (eastern & southern Africa) or cogon grass (USA).

I went for photo-shoot with the Lalang...
Sunday morning, I went to a place which I found out from my friend, Noel (http://noelryuji.blogspot.com/) for photography.

This place is really a great place for photography, I like the place as there are no building estate around. I'm a nature lover!

I got the chance to ask a friend to help me took some photo with the lalang. It was a pretty hot weather at around 11plus for photo-shooting.



Here are some of the photo which were taken by my friend:





Guess where is this place?

It is in Singapore! Yes it is at Punggol!
How To Get To Punggol Lalang Field?
- It is at Tebing Lane.
- You have to take MRT to Punggol.
- Change LRT to Riveria LRT Stn.
- Then you will see Popeye restaurant.
- Walk to Popeye Restuarant.
- Walk all the way in and you will see a staircase to the river.
- Turn left after you walk down the staircase.
- Then walk all the way untill you see this nice lalang field.

Maybe I would suggest going there around 4-5pm when it is more cooler.
And if you are going there for photograghy, pls bring a towel/ tissues and drinks.

Have fun taking photo!!!

INTERVIEW WITH MR WORLD SINGAPORE 2022 (SENIOR): S3 UMAR ABDUL HAMID

 1) During your entire time of Mr World Singapore 2022 from the time you auditioned till you won the title, tell us - what was the most overwhelming moment for you? Personally, as the grand final day drew nearer, and diet and water had to be stricter, it was hard trying to keep up with the nutrition portion as well as the rest and recovery portion. Aside from that, i was starting to feel a little more anxious that i should and a huge part of it was because i invited my mother to be part of the audience and i wanted the event to be memorable for her. But i guess everything was worth it in the end.  2) What was the prep process like? From the auditions all the way to the Grand Finals, i knew i had to step up as prior to the audition, i let myself go quite abit because of the fact that i was juggling between work and handling my 3 children. But i guess after the audition. i made a clear intent to give 100% to get ready for the grand finals and since then, i made more conscious de...

INTERVIEW WITH MR GRAND SINGAPORE 2022: JOEL CHUA (NO.8)

1) During your entire time of Mr World Singapore 2022 from the time you auditioned till you won the title, tell us - what was the most overwhelming moment for you? To be honest, it was when i saw my friend Stanley give the most touching proposal on coronation night. It really made me tear up seeing how emotional he got while on his knee 2) What was the prep process like? The prep process was pretty vigorous nearing towards the end, as there were many events to go for and practices to attend. Though vigorous, I felt that they were all enjoyable with the class of 2022 around. 3) Are there any nervous moments and stress factors during the competition and how did you deal with it? Yes definitely, Im always nervous whenever there is a Q&A segment as im afraid I’ll freeze up on stage or not be able to give a satisfactory answer. I guess how I dealt with it was to just let down my shoulders and enjoy the moment. Being relaxed and just being myself because that’s what people want to see! 4...
