Bus Stopping

Bus Stopping
Bus Stopping

Wordless bus-window portraits of everyday Singapore

This is perfect if you enjoy candid street photography. Its passenger’s-eye view reveals Singapore beyond tourist landmarks. Each photograph turns an ordinary bus ride into quiet observation. You’ll meet the city through its people and passing places.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

This is an unusual and remarkable book. There are no words. The 150 or so full-page photographs of people and place are all taken by a passenger travelling on a Singapore local bus. Here is an authentic non-touristy version of today's Singapore and its people!
