Chris Giles: Shiplake Church And A Four Hat Tipi Wedding

by Mark Bailey December 7, 2016
written by Mark Bailey

A massive party. That’s how I would sum up Keli and Marks tipi wedding.

They had a gorgeous four hat tipi which was only a couple of minutes away from Shiplake church ( in Henley on Thames ). There were two of us covering their wedding, I was covering Keli’s side and Greg the photographic Ninja was covering Marks.

We both had a lot of space to shoot in and there was lots of cool stuff surrounding us. The best wedding car I’ve yet to see, a classic american Thunderbird, blew my mind and as the prep was next to the Tipi it gave me the chance to look inside and imagine the awesomeness that was going to take place later on.

After the ceremony Greg rode shotgun back to the reception with the other guests on a trailer pulled by a tractor!

While this was happening we made a brief detour to the waterside where Mark originally proposed and had some photo time there. We didn’t stay too long, enough to get the photos we needed and not too long their guests would miss them.

Upwaltham Barns By Chris Giles

by Mark Bailey December 7, 2016
written by Mark Bailey

Here is Kelly and Mike’s wedding from late March at Upwaltham Barns.

It was the time of year when you never know what the weather is going to do and fortunately the Barns lend themselves well to this and also for photos if it does eventually rain like above!

Kelly got ready with the girls up the road at Hollandsfield Lodge before finishing prep at the Jasmine cottage on site with their ceremony following shortly after.

After about 9pm things start to get a little crazy on any dancefloor, that extra vodka, the ‘surprise Jagerbomb’ always seems to have a positive effect on the crowd…

Here’s some more photos from Kelly and Mike’s wedding day:

Digital Photography and it’s Vital Role in Dentistry

by dcadmin August 6, 2016
written by dcadmin

By H. Peter Ku D.D.S. P.A.

Photography helps capture the world around us in hopes to share a moment with others – to stop and appreciate or investigate what is happening before us. These images help us stop and look within the frame of another’s view, so we can gain knowledge from a different perspective.

As time progresses, more and more upcoming technologies emerge that help us capture a clearer image. Oral health professionals embrace changing technologies when they capture the necessary images produced by dental x-rays. These x-rays help us gain information that would otherwise be unseen giving dentists the upper hand in treating your dental concerns.

Traditional x-ray photography

Your dentist uses x-ray photography extensively for taking images of your teeth, gums, and other invisible oral structures and conditions for providing you appropriate dental treatment. Traditional radiographic procedures used a chemically active plate as the sensor. The radiation passing through the examined tooth would impinge on the plate and affect the plate chemical in various locations to various extents depending on the radiation getting through. The plate was then chemically processed (in a wet process, normally called ‘washing’). The result was a dark plate which when held against light would show up an image. Areas which were more opaque to x-ray energy would show up as dark patches and those which passed x-rays more easily would show up brighter.

Digital X-ray photography

Modern technology has replaced the plate with electronic sensors which create the image immediately, doing away with the problems associated with the old (faithful) plate. The digital image is much like the image obtained in a modern digital camera- a soft image- that is, a set of ones and zeros, which is easily stored in any digital device.

Types of Digital Dental Radiographs

  • Digital dental radiographs are categorized as intraoral or extra-oral.
    Intraoral x-rays- Intraoral x-ray photos are taken with the sensor placed inside the mouth against the tooth or teeth to be radiographed. The source is placed on the outside. The x-rays provide fine detail over a smaller area, e.g. a single tooth, and are the most commonly used type.
  • Bitewing x-rays- are taken with the patient biting on a thin plastic handle between his teeth. The handle holds the sensor vertically inside the mouth against the target area. This type of x-ray is useful when both upper and lower jaws must be viewed together, for example, in checking for occlusion problems.
  • Periapical X-rays show a complete tooth from the crown to the root tips and the supporting bone. Unlike the bitewing a Periapical X-ray does not simultaneously show the upper and the lower teeth. It shows complete teeth (one or more) but of one jaw only.
  • Extra-oral X-rays- the x-ray source and the sensor are both outside the mouth. They cannot provide the detail provided by intraoral X-rays and are not used for dealing with individual teeth, like root canal. Rather they are used to detect a wider scenario, e.g., monitor jaw development, temporomandibular problems, etc. Types of extra-oral X-rays include:
  • Panoramic X-rays (Panorex) – the are also called OPG. The machine including the source and the sensor, rotates around the head, to capture the entire mouth, and all the teeth in each jaw, in one image. Panoramic X-rays are helpful in planning treatment for dental implants, jaw problems and impacted wisdom teeth, and also to diagnose bony cysts and tumors.
  • Multi-slice computed tomography (MCT) reconstructs in detail a particular “slice” of the mouth while ignoring blurring all other layers. This type of X-ray is useful for examining structures that are difficult to see clearly.
  • Cephalometric projections, can show the entire head, and help examine the teeth with reference to a patient’s jaw. A cephalometric projection is used by, orthodontists to develop their treatment plans.
  • Sialography is used to examine problems with salivary glands, which may be a simple blockage, or Sjogren’s syndrome (an autoimmune disease that can reduce saliva and tear production). The glands are injected with a radiopaque dye as a contrast agent and then x-rayed.

Cone beam computerized tomography (CBCT) or CT scans can show the interior structures as a three-dimensional image. The 3-D image is created by computer software from 2-D images taken from different aspects. CBCT is used to identify problems of facial bones like fractures or tumors. CT scans also are helpful in evaluating bone for dental implants and in difficult tooth extractions.

Benefits of Digital Dental Radiography

  • The results are instant, and can be viewed on screen or printed. No chemical processing is required.
  • Quick availability aids in patient comfort.
  • Storage and retrieval is very convenient.
  • Can be transmitted easily for review, comment, and lead to faster insurance settlements.
  • During viewing the image can be magnified, rotated, contrast enhanced etc.
  • As chemicals are avoided the digital imaging is eco-friendly.
  • Digital x-rays normally demand less exposure to radiation.

In a world of technology several inventions and innovations allow for new groundbreaking discoveries. Whether you are capturing the perfect family memory or maintaining those pearly whites photography is key.

Behind the Mask By Robert MacNeil

by Mark Bailey June 20, 2016
written by Mark Bailey

“We live our lives, behind a mask, never truly showing who you are to others for fear of being rejected or judged. I wanted to focus on what hides behind beauty and what we consider beautiful as a society. What do you see? Two beautiful women, one dark haired, art covering her body and you think you know her? The other, a tall statuesque blonde, standing proud but that’s just the mask they both wear. One is terrified of how people perceive her, the other couldn’t care less. Do you think you know which is which. One raises cows and loves them, the other has an amazing sense of humour and will make you laugh for hours, but what do you see? You see the mask we all wear but not what is BEHIND THE MASK.”

To take a trivial

by dcadmin January 12, 2016
written by dcadmin

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful.

Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it? But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure.

It is a long established fact

by dcadmin December 1, 2015
written by dcadmin

On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain. These cases are perfectly simple and easy to distinguish.

In a free hour, when our power of choice is untrammelled and when nothing prevents our being able to do what we like best, every pleasure is to be welcomed and every pain avoided. But in certain circumstances and owing to the claims of duty or the obligations of business it will frequently occur that pleasures have to be repudiated and annoyances accepted. The wise man therefore always holds in these matters to this principle of selection: he rejects pleasures to secure other greater pleasures, or else he endures pains to avoid worse pains.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
