Picture of the day

The Elgin Bridge, a vehicular box girder bridge across the Singapore River, built between 1925 and 1929. The bridge links the Downtown Core to the Singapore River Planning Area located within Singapore’s Central Area. The bridge was named after James Bruce, 8th Earl of Elgin, a colonial administrator and diplomat who had served as Governor-General of Canada and India. This long exposure image shows a boat passing under the bridge during blue hour on August 18, 2023.

Media of the day

Close Up (1990) in Farsi. This fiction-documentary hybrid uses a sensational real-life event; The arrest of a young man on charges that he fraudulently impersonated the well-known filmmaker Mohsen Makhmalbaf — as the basis for a stunning, multilayered investigation into movies, identity, artistic creation, and existence, in which the real people from the case play themselves.
