4795. Food photography - BBQ Spareribs

18 May 2023: 

FOOD PHOTOGRAPHY

Gochi-So Shokudo, Jewel Changi Airport. 

Dinner at 6 pm on a Thursday. Not crowded at this time. Had Tenderloin Curry ($17.50) and BBQ Spareribs ($20.50). This is the second visit. The BBQ Spareribs were the reason for the 2nd visit. They were excellent as it was during the first visit - tender and not salty with sweet sauce during this visit. The one serving lady staff was helpful. To the Chef on duty: Keep up the good cooking of spareribs. 5-star for ribs.


PHOTOGRAPHY TIP:
1. Use Tripod and AV Mode F/8 and ISO 400.
2. I used white paper towels to provide the contrasting white background to make the image stand out.
3.
I used Photoshop Select and Mask to remove the background paper. Hence this image looks neat with white background.

Canon R5, TRIPOD, 24-105mm lens, AV, F/8, ISO 400, 1/4 sec

4794. Impacted cheek pouch in a dwarf hamster. What to do?


 FOR YOUTUBE VIDEO PRODUCTION by SHAH. HOOK (30 seconds of the final video if possible).



BE KIND TO PETS IMAGE



TITLE IMAGE


AUTO-NARRATION

 

 Her beloved hamster stuffed his right cheek pouch to the maximum capacity for the 3rd time.This impacted cheek pouch of more than 2 weeks wafted a bad breath. The young lady took work leave to consult me in October 2014.

 

 Bad breath of rotting vegetables wafted upwards to my nose. This was due to the prolonged storage of the decomposed food in the impacted pouch.  There was an ulcerated lip commissure.  The hamster had difficulty in drinking. It would have died of dehydration as days pass by.


 “Surgical removal of the infected cheek pouch is the best solution,” I said.  “The pet hamster does not need of a cheek pouch to hoard food.”This time, the owner consented to the surgery and to accept the risk of anaesthetic death of her pet. 

 

 

After the surgery, the hamster lived to the ripe old age. I did not see him or the young career lady since she accepted surgical removal of the cheek pouch which is the best solution.

FURTHER INFORMATION

VET CASE STUDY: Final Video - A dwarf hamster has an impacted cheek pouch again Dr Sing Kong Yuen, BVMS (Glasgow). Year of video production: 2014 

Her beloved hamster stuffed his right cheek pouch to the maximum volume again. This impacted cheek pouch had been present for more than 2 weeks. The lady owner took leave to Toa Payoh Vets to consult me. 

Bad breath smell wafted from the prolonged storage of the decomposed food. An ulcerated lip commissure. I had advised the lady owner to limit food supply and evacuate cheek pouch regularly as she did not want surgery to remove the cheek pouch. 

That would be the best solution as the pet hamster in Singapore does not need of a cheek pouch to hoard food. This time, the owner accepted my advice. She was no longer anxious after the hamster had no more right cheek pouch. The hamster lived to the ripe old age without having bad breath and needing veterinary treatment! 

 

CONSULTATION AT 3RD TIME OF IMPACTED CHEEK POUCH. The owner decided to risk the anaesthesia to get surgery done.

4791.Video of a healthy noni tree.


TRAVELS STORY BY DR SING. Video. A healthy noni tree.

Dr Sing Kong Yuen, BVMS (Glasgow)10 May 2023. 

A healthy noni tree is grown on the public  plot of land behind a Lentor Estate house, Singapore.  The tree bears numerous noni fruits as it is well cared for by the residents. A video using my iPhone 11 is shown after this image.

The noni tree is healthy because the residents ensure it has proper nutrition, sunlight, water and its leaves are free from pests and fungus. For viewers, we must take good care of our health in order to stay healthy and free of diseases.

4790. Samsung Galaxy S27 v Canon R5 photo of Chinatown, Singapore

PHOTO 1. Samsung Galaxy S27.

11  May 2023. Chinatown. Galaxy S27
Handheld. 84-year-old man with trembling hands. One image only.When viewed at 100%, the image is not sharp. Could it be due to hand tremors? 

 

PHOTO 2. Canon EOS R5.

11  May 2023. Chinatown. Canon R5, 24-105mm, AV, F/16, ISO 200, 1/160sec.
Handheld. Focus on “Hotel 81” to get overall image sharpness. Best of 4 shots. View at 100%, “Hotel 81” is sharp.

CONCLUSION:
The 84-year-old man saw me checking my Canon camera images and joined me at the table to have desserts in this popular Chinatown stall. He had a Leica in the 1960s and has experience in photography.

The comparison is not fair as the 84-year-old man has trembling hands which will adversely affect image quality, just like breezes in photographing flowers. The Galaxy S27 has excellent lens and could probably have had produced a sharp image as Canon R5.

"Taking photographs take your mind off the worries and stresses of daily living," he told me. I could not agree with him more as I am also a senior citizen. Photography promotes mental wellness in any person. In addition, there is some physical activity which circulates the blood and exercises the muscles to prevent sarcopenia.

One of the most striking effects of age is the involuntary loss of muscle mass, strength, and function, termed sarcopenia. Muscle mass decreases approximately 3–8% per decade after the age of 30 and this rate of decline is even higher after the age of 60.
