We don't always appreciate it, but Singapore — jungle of concrete and metal that it might be — can be quite a pretty place.

Photographer and art director Lee Yik Keat certainly thinks so — armed with a drone camera and an Instagram account that's accumulated some 149,000 followers, he takes and posts pretty pictures and scenes of various parts of our little nation-state.

This is Blessed Sacrament Church along Queensway, for instance:

It could possibly be that Singapore is a pretty place after all.

Or maybe it's just the sky.
