Ubin? I was there for birding last Sat/Sun and test the sky using my friends fisheye lens to take some test shot... got some hope and I think I'll try in Singapore next time.

Have a nice day.

Erm, I think Gary is joking :)
Besides, if you have a car, for all the trouble it is loading up the bumboat then lugging it around Ubin, you might as well drive up to Sedili/Desaru
