NDP 2019: Capturing powerful moments

The Straits Times Picture Desk and Samsung collaborate in a first-ever effort by capturing Singapore's 54th birthday celebrations on Samsung's latest mobile phone, the Galaxy Note10+. All the photographs in this picture spread were taken on this phone by seven ST photographers, who did not have to rely solely on their professional DSLR cameras.
