To get a sharp image of the yellow mimosa, use tripod. Then photoshop to reduce the yellow luminance of the petals to see their details. Handheld photos will be out of focus.Yellow mimosa on vacant turfed land beside Lentor MRT Station 29 Oct 2022. shutterstock.com/g/toapayohvets

30 Oct 2022. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS.

Noni fruits have traditionally been used for colds, flu, diabetes, anxiety, and high blood pressure, as well as for depression and anxiety. 

Noni fruit tree in the public grass land outside the back of a Lentor Loop house, Singapore on 30 Oct 2022. The yellow-spotted leaves are not healthy as they should be uniformly green. A deficiency in minerals like zinc?

Yellow spotted leaves of Noni fruit tree are not normal. Overdose or insufficient minerals such as zinc? Fungal infections? Anybody know the answer?

A wild noni tree outside the fence, Bullion Park Singapore. Noni fruits have traditionally been used for colds, flu, diabetes, anxiety, and high blood pressure, as well as for depression and anxiety.

The strongly scented Noni Fruit (Morinda citrifolia) is eaten in Asian countries but is unpalatable to the Caucasians. The juices are said to have healed every illness from diabetes, hypertension to cancer.

4161. Photography of Red-leafed plants and miniature flowers

SINGAPORE - 29 OCT 2022: 10am, Saturday. I took photos at Lentor MRT station vacant grass land. It now has wild flowers, weeds, grass, small purple butterflies, moths. A young Oriental lizard scooted off on seeing me. A yellow butterfly. Two orange butterflies. Opened in Oct 2020, the vacant land besides the station is turfed and now has many wildflowers, moths and butterflies.

However, this red-leafed plant with pretty miniature flowers was planted by a house owner on public land outside his back gate near the Lentor Loop condo construction site. How does this plant survive when it has no green leaves like the ordinary plants?

4158. Humour from Security officers prohibit photography of buildings in Singapore.

SINGAPORE - 25 OCT 2022: The 3-tower Marina Bay Financial Centre (MBFC) in the Central Business District. Tenants include Standard Chartered Bank, LeVeL33 urban microbrewery and multi-national offices. 

A security officer stopped me taking photos of the outside of The Coffee Academics in the MBFC by putting his palm in front of my camera lens! He said this was his job unless I had permission to take photos even though I was in the public area. He phoned his manager who explained this was their job. How about handphone photos of the outside of The Coffee Academics? He had no objection. 


 








 
 
 
 
 

In Singapore, some security guards zealously force NO PHOTOGRAPHY of the mall, office buildings and MRT stations. 

I could see the humour developed in the following situation when I used my DSLR Canon camera to take photos:
 

1. The new Upper Thomson MRT opened at end of 2021. 

One auxiliary police officer managing traffic flows near the new Upper Thomson MRT Station stopped doing his duties to tell me not to take photos of the outside of the MRT Station till the traffic jam built up and he had to resume his traffic management duties! He thought terrorists take photos to plan attack on this MRT station. Google Maps will have all the photos terrorists need nowadays!

2. The Funan Mall. A security officer told me that photography of the new Supreme Court building opposite the mall is prohibited. "The judges will issue a summons to you as it is an offence," he ticked me off solemnly!

3. The Seletar Mall cinema. One retiree security officer said that I was not allowed to bring my Canon DSLR camera to watch movies as he saw me slinging my camera on the shoulder. This was the ruling from the management. He thought I was going to film the movie to sell!
