National Museum

Today I went to the National Museum of Singapore to an exposition about photography of families that live in different countries with some of my friends.

I really like the building and its surroundings! This is what it looks like from the outside:

The cuppola is very impressive even from the inside!

The exposition was really interesting. The artist had taken pictures of families that live far apart with the help of Skype. How did he manage to do this? Well he projected a picture of the family as it appeared on the screen on some wall and the person that was on the other side of the screen posed in front of the wall as if he/she was standing with the rest of the family. I know this explanation might be a bit confusing, but maybe you understand it better from this image:

The Pictures were really cool and some were beautifully composed plus I can definitely relate to this topic!

The museum has been explanded so there is a very modern part annexed to the older one:

The roof is made out of glass so you can see the cuppola even from the inside:

What especially caught my eye were those candelabra:

You don't see the best thing from the picture, which is the fact that they are swinging constantly:

Not bad, museum, not bad...
