PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Slight breeze. Use TV Mode to get sharp image of frangipani flowers. If you use AV Mode, you may get blurry images or you need to shoot many to get one sharp shot.

Frangipani tree top at 2nd level of balcony of Capella Singapore. I use balcony top to support the camera and focus on one flower's yellow core. This image is cropped to show 3 flowers although the original image has several. Too many flowers in an image will not be impressive, but it may be difficult just to photograph 3 flowers sometimes. Therefore, get a bigger image and crop to show 3 flowers.

White Frangipani: White is a symbol of purity, spirituality, and devotion. White frangipani flowers are often used in religious ceremonies and offerings to the gods and ancestors.

A Capella Singapore white frangipani flower for you. One of the blossoming white flowers from the frangipani tree is on the right of the hotel. Photo was taken from the 2nd floor balcony - quite close to the snow-white flowers.

5911. Urban development: Brownfield and greenfield sites.

A downside of urban development is that it can lead to gentrification and the dispacement of existing residents and businesses, esp. in low-income areas.
 

1. Gentrification is the transformation of a neighborhood from low value to high value. It is viewed as a process of urban development in which a neighborhood or portion of a city develops rapidly in a short period of time, often as a result of urban renewal programs, including real estate investment.

2. It is important to preserve heritage and nature. The URA will redevelop brownfield sites and "try to delay or slow down the need to open up "greenfied sites".



2.1. Brownfield sites are land plots with previous development on them.

2.2. Greenfield sites are places that have not been previously built on.

5907. VET CASE STUDY: Chest X-rays of coughing inappetant lethargic old dog. 17-year-old male Shih Tzu

Will an x-ray show lung cancer in a dog?

Common symptoms include difficulty breathing, exercise intolerance, or non-productive cough. However, some dogs only experience weight loss (despite a good appetite) and/or lack of energy. Other dogs have no symptoms at all. Diagnosis of lung cancer usually starts with a chest X-ray.

 Can you see tumors on X-rays?

The soft tissues in the body (like blood, skin, fat, and muscle) allow most of the X-ray to pass through and appear dark gray on the film. A bone or a tumor, which is denser than soft tissue, allows few of the X-rays to pass through and appears white on the X-ray.

 

What is the most common lung tumor in dogs?

Bronchogenic adenocarcinoma is the most common primary lung tumor, making up 75% of cases. Dogs can also develop squamous cell carcinoma or sarcomas in their lungs as well. As primary lung tumors are typically slow growing, they can become quite large before they are finally diagnosed.

X-rays of the lungs from an infected dog will usually reveal white spots in the lung fields which are consistent with lung fluke cysts. X-rays are also useful to determine how many cysts are present and where they are located. On occasion, an asymptomatic dog will be diagnosed when X-rays are taken for other reasons.

 

5906. PHOTOGRAPHY OF A SUPERTREE. Tripod, Manual mode and sunshine.

 PHOTOGRAPHY OF A SUPERTREE. Tripod, Manual mode and sunshine.

 9 Jun 2024. The Supertree at Gardens by the Bay is a vertical garden and a popular tourist attraction.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS:

I share some tips for viewers.

To take a good photo, use a tripod, manual mode and bright sunshine e.g. at 6 pm on 9 Jun 2024. Include some people in to show size and height of the tree.

It will be very difficult to get a sharp image without a tripod.

Canon R5, Manual Mode, 24mm, 1/800 sec, f/4.5, ISO 125.

5905: PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: The National Mosque of Malaysia

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: The National Mosque of Malaysia

 

5 Jun 2024.

The National Mosque of Malaysia (Malay: Masjid Negara Malaysia), built in 1965, accommodates up to 15,000 worshippers. It has a 73-meter-high minaret and a 16-pointed star dome representing 5 pillars of Islam and the 11 states of then Malaya.

ITS UNIQUE DESIGN:
It is beautifully designed - in particular, the "semi-folded" umbrella roof structure and "folded umbrella" of the minaret.

I did not have time to visit this mosque. I attach a photo for viewer's appreciation. This photo was taken from the 15th floor of The Majestic Hotel.

Canon R5, AV, 1/160 sec, f/11, ISO 100. 5 Jun 2024, 4pm.
