5920. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Take image from inside the car - Lee Ah Mooi Old Age Home. Use shutter priority.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Take image from inside the car - Lee Ah Mooi Old Age Home in Silat Road.


In this case, I got a better angle of the pretty terrace houses when I took the shots from inside the car. 



I used AV. Canon R5, 50mm, 1/1000 sec, f/4.5, ISO 100. Hot glaring 12.15pm sunlight. I used Lightroom and Photoshop to remove the glare.

GOOGLE REVIEW 5 STARS

17 Jun 2024: I drove past many times, the Lee Ah Mooi Old Age Home in Silat Road, opened in April 2017.

The terrace houses look pretty and clean, nested amongst the high rises and the NNI and SGH buildings in Singapore General Hospital. This hot afternoon day around 12.15pm, I managed to shoot a a better photo from inside the car.

I used shutter priority (TV) as I had no time to change settings. Aperture priority can also be used. The manual mode will need more time to adjust. Hence, it is best to use the TV Mode.

5918. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Sunset and oil slicks in Palawan Beach on 16 Jul 2024.

 PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Sunset and oil slicks in Palawan Beach on 16 Jul 2024. 

A dredger (Vox Maxima) hit a stationary bunker vessel (Marine Honour) at Pasir Panjang Terminal on 15 Jun  2024, causing oil to leak into the sea. Palawan beach is not affected by black oil contaminating the shoreline with foul oil smell, but many customers cancel their F & B reservations at Palawan Beach. Swimming was banned. Oil slicks removed and put into the white trash bags (see images below).  Tanjong Beach was severely affected. Siloso beach was affected.

White Bags of oil slick. Sunset on Palawan Beach. 16 Jun 2024. 6.57pm. 

Canon R5, Manual, 37mm, 1/1000 sec, f/8, ISO 200. Focus on sun.

5917. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Frangipani rust

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Frangipani Rust



Frangipani rust is a fungus that causes brown spots
and brown discoloration of petals & leaves

Canon R5, 105mm, 1/250 sec, f/8, ISO 100.
Bright sunshine 4.50pm. Capella Singapore. Frangipani tree in bloom.
I was on the 2nd floor of Reception, nearly on eye level with the frangipani flowers to get a better view. Most flowers are on top half of this tree adjacent to the building where Reception is located.


Soil well nourished and watered - produced blossoming white frangipanis. But frangipani rust has spores that is spread by air and water.

I noted "pustules" or small globular spots on the stalk of the flowers (photoshopped away) and brown spots on leaves (photoshopped away). These are Frangipani Rust moulds. I photoshopped away a big brown petal but left the brownish tips of the petals as seen in the image.

5915. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Use TV when photographing peahens and chicks.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Use TV mode when photographing peahens and chicks.

I was on the buggy when Shah, the driver pointed out to me the peahen coming for peanuts when the weather is not hot. He was moving and I took 6 shots with my camera on AV Mode. Only the first shot was sharp. I should have set my camera on TV mode.

Canon R5, AV, 24mm, 1/40 sec, f/11, ISO 100. Photo was taken while the buggy was moving. Only the first shot out of 6 is sharp! No time to use TV Mode.

SINGAPORE - 16 JUN 2024: At 5.30pm when it is not hot, this free-roaming peahen will bring her two chicks to the hotel to eat her favourite peanuts, offered by the staff.

I was on a buggy to Palawan Beach when the driver told me there was a hungry peahen with two chicks looking for her favourite peanuts. I managed to capture one good photo out of six. Peahens are free-roaming in Sentosa and they have to walk around to look for some food for themselves and their chicks. Some are culled as guests (Singaporeans mainly) are "afraid" of wildlife even in this golden age of the internet!

 GOOGLE REVIEW. 5 STARS.


16 Jun 2024:
My family checked in today, a bright sunshine afternoon.

I write to thank Lyn at the reception for being kind enough to offer me the Staff Lift to go down from the tea floor to the reception as Capella Singapore does not have a lift for guests.

I also thank the others at the reception for being attentive and especially to Shah for his excellent buggy services and for showing me the peahen with two chicks coming to Capella at 5.30pm for "peanuts".

I managed to capture one good shot of the peahen out of six as the buggy was moving and I did not set my camera to shutter priority. This photo is for Shah, with my best wishes for his future career.

5914. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: Slight breeze. Use TV Mode to get sharp image of frangipani flowers.


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.
