National Skin Centre Consultation Rooms. 6 Feb 2024. 9am.
SINGAPORE - 6 FEB 2024: 9am. The decor, high quality seats and spaciousness of the Waiting Area for Consultation of the National Skin Centre reduce a patient's anxiety and boost mental wellness.
Canon R5, 24mm, 1/60sec, ISO 200, f/11.
I tried AUTO ISO. It
is best not to use auto ISO as the camera can set it very high to ISO
12,800 and the image becomes very grainy. Set ISO 400 is OK for most
lit indoor rooms or stores.

Its fruit is edible and often harvested from the wild. The fruits form as large clusters on the trunk, on branches and on the roots. It is not uncommon to discover a tree where the base is covered with hundreds of fruits. They can be eaten raw or cooked, used in jams, juice and curries.
Fiscus auriculata at SAFRA Toa Payoh is a fig tree with edible fruits. Anyone interested?

5615. PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS: How to create novel images
PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS:
HOW TO CREATE NOVEL IMAGES?
TO CREATE NOVEL IMAGES
1. Photograph places people have never seen before.
2. Photograph places in ways people have never seen
before.
For example, hike further and explore places not
visited by most photographers or long after they have left, or during
blue hours, moonlight, astrophotography.
1. A Closer Look. Like form, texture, pattern and design.
2. Allow More Time. Rare moments of season, light or weather changes by staying longer in one place.
3. Return and Revisit.
4. A New Light. Not sunrise and sunset only.
5. Shoot What You Love. Subjects that move you, excite, puzzle, disturb, sadden, enlighten you.
