Panoramic Boat Quay

Boat Quay is the place where locals go to for fresh sea food and local hawker fare.

However the place has gotten a bad repute over the years when tourists complained of rip-offs by some outlets. In a recent case, a tourist complained paying "S$210 for a single crab that made the meal". Sometimes, brawls and fist fights break out in the evenings there.

Consequently, the popularity of Boat Quay as a foodie haven has dropped markedly.

I think if owners and/or tenants at Boat Quay get together and form an association to weed out operators who over-charge for meals and other malpractices - simply by having agreed to and standardized price lists for popular food dishes, the place may regain its former glory.

The panorama below was shot using the Nikon 14-24mm lens mounted on a D40, then stitched together using Photoshop's photomerge tool. What used to be a complicated task producing panos is now so simple !

Tried out different amounts of USM to determine which amount will produce the crispest image for the web.
