Fourth time was the charm for Mr Andy Chew, who considered Monday night’s attempt – his fourth in four years – his “most successful”. The 51-year-old’s previous plans had been foiled by bad weather.
“Today, people probably thought, ‘Nah, it’s another year of disappointment.’ But I took the gamble. I’ve failed so many times, but I wanted to try and try and try. Better than nothing,” said Mr Chew, who arrived with his camera and tripod at 6.30pm.
“If you shoot the moon itself, it’s just like any other moon,” he added, explaining why he chose Marina Barrage’s backdrop.
Hoping to simply capture the moon rising just above the ships in the distance, Mr Chew in the end scored a shot of a plane flying across the moon.
