Supertrees

This is the Supertree Grove at Gardens by the Bay.  They’re supposed to be this symbol of ecological awareness and environmental technologies, but I just found them garish.

At the base of the trees were a series of sculptures depicting scenes from the stories about Chang’e.  In honor of the Mid-Autumn Festival — which provided me the time off work to enjoy a visit to Singapore — I present this sculpture of Hou Yi shooting down nine of the ten suns to make the Earth livable for mankind.
But if I had to live in Singapore, I’d say just go ahead and shoot down that tenth sun, too.  It’s just too hot.  Too hot and humid.  Just way too hot and humid.
