Another Singapore shot, unfortunately no tripod with me, hand held, high iso and noise!! Any advice for situations like this readily accepted, as completely out of my comfort zone with this type of photography.

Singapore at christmas time, a truely amazing sight to see indeed, recommend to all young and old alike, it will bring out the child inside you all.

The girl was being photographed by her mother, the title was chose as the scene reminded me of the old Rose Royce song, Wishing on a Star.

Thanks for viewing

Simon

Nice work, I love noise. I am very nostalgic. ;)

Tie the end of a piece of string around your camera lens and the other end around your foot.
Pull taught and hey presto you have a monopod that will fit in your pocket and two stops.

I love this shot. When I have to shoot with high ISO like this I use a Photoshop plugin called Topaz Denoise. It does a great job at removing the noise from the image while leaving the detail almost untouched. It gives me the ability to shoot at a higher ISO and still feel good that the shot will turn out. With that said however I do not see a big problem with the noise in this shot. Sure it has some but not to the point that it makes the image one to hit the cutting room floor, it I think adds a little to this image. I really like the shot.

Nice shot Simon. If you're worried about noise, you could easily shot at 1/50 hand held at 47mm so you could have managed with ISO 800. That said, I think the noise isn't too bad and in some ways adds to the atmosphere.

I looked at your very nice photograph dear friend...Of course I am not an expert any more but lke your bright focus and neat composition. No one can isolate himself so objectively from the beauty of a Christmas tree...To capture it so minimalist way like you needs perfection about composing ...Congrat my friend for such beautiful photo...
