It is not a breathtaking scene, just a typical view of the suburban landscape which I live in, very nondescript. You need not take a closer look to agree that its character is given by the ubiquitous HDB high-rise flats that litter the landscape. Incidentally, this is taken from the block which i live in. But I never find this scene that greets me everyday attractive, mainly because it is very ordinary, you can probably see this from any high-points in the heartland.
Whenever the sky turns ominously dark and heavy cumulus clouds hung threateningly low, however, i invariably find myself surveying the scene. It is a scene that is always there, unchanging no matter the days or months or years that have gone by. It was on one such occasion that it dawned on me how far and wide the landscape encompasses. There aren't any spectacular landmarks, nor are there verdant mountain tops or rivers within sight. But it is a reassuring sight whose vastness seems only visible when rain or stormy weather is imminent.
