Took a hike after our winter storm here this morning. Very pretty. And 3 miles in snowshoes (in 12" of heavy, wet snow) proved a nice workout too.
Another gate to negotiate. That green lid is a most welcome sight, as it is covering a 'Beware of the Bull' sign, and is like a rural traffic light - safe to cross. Most welcome seeing as a bull can run faster than I can pedal across a rough field.
We had a group shoot at the Kincaid sand dunes in West Anchorage in July 2011. This may have been our best shoot of the season; absolutely great day, warm, sunny, no wind, excellent lighting, and incredible models - most of them were brand new to us.
Dana is one of my favorite models - I love shooting with her - she is everything a photographer could ask for - photogenic, creative, intelligent, dependable - ah, she is definitely clone-able. The only problem was the park closes at 9 p.m. (it gets dark around 11:30 p.m.) so we had 5 minutes before they locked the gates so I peeled off about 10 shots - I would have loved to have an hour or two to shoot with Dana - what a fantastic human being!

Photo shot by my Dad, Jay Thomson, at Corbin, KY in April 1984
On a foggy Kentucky morning in April 1984 Dad shot US Steel SSB-9 1218A & 1218B at work. ALCo only built two of these cow-calf sets in 1956, both originally built for Oliver Mining of Chisolm, Minnesota. Both sets eventually ended up working for US Steel at their Corbin, Kentucky coal facility.

British postcard in the Picturegoer Series, London, no. 1218a. Photo: 20th Century Fox. Tyrone Power in Brigham Young (Henry Hathaway, 1940).
Strikingly handsome Tyrone Power (1914-1959) was one of the great romantic swashbuckling stars of Hollywood’s golden age. From the 1930s to the 1950s, Power starred in such adventure films as The Mark of Zorro (1940), Blood and Sand (1941), The Black Swan (1942), Captain from Castile (1947), Prince of Foxes (1949) and The Black Rose (1950). Among his best films are the Film Noir Nightmare Alley (1949) and Billy Wilder’s Witness for the Prosecution (1957). In the 1950s, he devoted more time to theatre productions and received accolades for his roles in 'John Brown's Body' and 'Mister Roberts'. Power died from a heart attack at the age of 44.
Tyrone Edmund Power, Jr. (also called Tyrone Power III) was born at his mother's home in Cincinnati, Ohio, in 1914. He was the third Tyrone Power of four in a famed acting dynasty reaching back to the eighteenth century. His great-grandfather was the first Tyrone Power (1795-1841), a famed Irish comedian. His father, known to historians as Tyrone Power Sr., but to his contemporaries as either Tyrone Power or Tyrone Power the Younger, was a huge star in the theatre and later in films. On stage, he acted in both classical and modern roles. His mother, Helen Emma ‘Patia’ née Reaume (Mrs. Tyrone Power), was also a Shakespearean actress as well as a respected dramatic coach. A frail, sickly child, Tyrone was taken by his parents to the warmer climate of southern California. He made his stage debut at age seven, appearing with his father in a stage production at San Gabriel Mission. After his parents' divorce, he and his sister Anne Power returned to Cincinnati with their mother. There, he attended school while developing an obsession with acting. Although raised by his mother, he corresponded with his father, who encouraged his acting dreams. He was a supernumerary in his father's stage production of 'The Merchant of Venice' in Chicago. After turning professional, Power supported himself between engagements, working as a theatre usher and other such odd jobs. Tyrone was scheduled to make his film debut playing with his father, Tyrone Power Sr., in The Miracle Man (Norman Z. McLeod, 1932). Tyrone held his father as he died suddenly of a heart attack while preparing for his role. They were both replaced. Startlingly handsome, young Tyrone nevertheless struggled to find work in Hollywood. He appeared in a few small roles, then went east to do stage work in Katherine Cornell's theatrical company. Among the Broadway plays in which he was cast are 'Flowers of the Forest', 'Saint Joan', and 'Romeo and Juliet'.
Tyrone Power did a screen test, which led to a contract at 20th Century Fox in 1936. He was cast in a supporting role in the Simone Simon vehicle Girl's Dormitory (Irving Cummings, 1936). The reaction from preview audiences to Fox's new contractee was so enthusiastic that Darryl F. Zanuck ordered that Power's part be expanded for the final release version. Power played the lead in the drama Lloyd's of London (Henry King, 1936) opposite Madeleine Carroll and Guy Standing. Loosely based on historical events, the film follows the dealings of a man who works for Lloyd's of London during the Napoleonic Wars. Lloyd's of London was a hit; it demonstrated that 22-year-old Power, in his first starring role, could carry a film and that the newly formed 20th Century Fox was a major Hollywood studio. He walked into the premiere of the film as an unknown, and he walked out a star, which he remained the rest of his career. As Fox's biggest male star, he played in contemporary and period pieces with ease. Power racked up hit after hit from 1936 until 1943. Jim Beaver at IMDb: “Most of his roles were colourful without being deep, and his swordplay was more praised than his wordplay.” He was loaned out by Fox once, to MGM for Marie Antoinette (W. S. Van Dyke, 1938), starring Norma Shearer as Marie Antoinette. The film was based on the 1932 biography of the ill-fated Queen of France by the Austrian writer Stefan Zweig. Fox mogul Darryl F. Zanuck was angry that MGM used Fox's biggest star in what was, despite the billing, a supporting role, and he vowed never again to loan him out. After the hit The Mark of Zorro (Rouben Mamoulian, 1940), Power's career took a dramatic turn. He became the romantic, swashbuckling hero of such adventure films as Blood and Sand (Rouben Mamoulian, 1941) with Rita Hayworth, and The Black Swan (Henry King, 1942) with Maureen O’Hara. In 1943, Power served in the Marine Corps in World War II as a transport pilot, and he saw action in the Pacific Theatre of Operations. Hal Erickson at AllMovie: "Power was a much better actor than he was given credit for at the time. He also handled his celebrity like an old pro; he was well-liked by his co-stars and crew, and from all reports was an able and respected leader of men while serving as a Marine Corps officer during World War II."
After the war, Tyrone Power got his best reviews for an atypical part as a downward-spiralling con man in the Film Noir Nightmare Alley (Edmund Goulding, 1947). Although he remained a huge star, much of his post-war work was unremarkable. Zanuck released several costume-clad adventure films with Power, including Captain from Castile (Henry King, 1947), Prince of Foxes (Henry King, 1949) with Orson Welles, and The Black Rose (Henry Hathaway, 1950) with Cécile Aubry. He continued to do notable stage work and also began producing films. Darryl F. Zanuck persuaded him to play the lead role in The Sun Also Rises (Henry King, 1957), adapted from the Ernest Hemingway novel, with Ava Gardner and Errol Flynn. This was his final film with Fox. Power gave a fine performance opposite Marlene Dietrich and Charles Laughton in the Agatha Christie adaptation Witness for the Prosecution (Billy Wilder, 1957). Next, Power began production on Solomon and Sheba (King Vidor, 1959). Halfway through shooting, he collapsed during a duelling scene with George Sanders, and he died of a heart attack before reaching a hospital. He was replaced by Yul Brynner. Power’s last complete work was a public-service announcement for television (in which he appeared on a motion-picture set in costume) about spotting the signs of a heart attack and going to the hospital to have a doctor check it out... Power had been married three times. His first wife was French actress Annabella (1939-1948). After their divorce, he married Mexican actress Linda Christian (1949-1956), with whom he had two daughters, singer-actress Romina Francesca Power (1951) and actress Taryn Power (1953). His third wife was Deborah Jean Smith Minardos (7 May 1958 - 15 November 1958; his death). Their son, Tyrone William Power IV (1959), was born, some two months after Power's death. He became known professionally as Tyrone Power Jr. and also followed his father in the family acting tradition. Power was also the adoptive father of Annabella’s daughter, Ann Power. Tyrone Power is interred at Hollywood Memorial Cemetery (now called Hollywood Forever), Hollywood, CA. His tombstone includes the masks of Comedy and Tragedy and the inscription, "Good night, sweet prince...".
