CEDAR GROVE, NJ — Not being able to make it through the summer, Cinema 23 abruptly closed its doors last week.
According to MovieBuff82 on-line -
"This cinema opened on November 23, 1969. It died May 11, 2010. For 20+ years it showed movies in 70mm before showing 35mm movies. It was retrofitted on December 23, 1977 with Dolby Stereo 70mm for a rerelease of Star Wars, which was the most popular movie of that year. Clearview bought the theater in 1998 back when Cablevision was buying the chain. With Cablevision, its Optimum Rewards program allowed moviegoers to see a movie for free on Tuesday nights. The last day that this happened was the day before the theater closed down on May 12."
replies on-line: -
William - "The opening film was Woody Allen’s “Take the Money and Run” in 35mm on Nov. 23 1969."
Mark Edmunds - "I looked in the door tonight and see that they have started to ‘dismantle’ the place. The chrome mouth piece’s and ticket pass thru window’s of both box office windows have been removed, the lighted poster display frames in the lobby have been removed along with the candy/soda counters."

Week 23 - 9-16 June
Haven't done a shot a week post in over 2 weeks. I've been slightly preoccupied, but it's good to be back.
Took this last weekend during the Queen's birthday long weekend trip to Tasmania. We travelled quite a bit in the 3 days, and I think this is in Bernie. More next week.
Psalm 23
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

23 / 100 : The Giant
Ok, let me get this straight: you guys have no idea how freaking tall this guy is.
I mean, I'm not short myself (186-ish cm) but in comparison I felt really small!
However, I shot this portrait on Saturday afternoon and I had just finished to explain a friend the reasons behind my "Just 1 portrait per day of shooting" rule that I apply to this project : I told her that knowing that I had to post the very best every day helped me to focus more and especially, to persist more. You never know if the next stranger is gonna get you an amazing portrait so, in the doubt, you simply stick around longer.
So, after having a long conversation about this, we went separate ways and I started shooting strangers. Literally 1 minute after, this guy showed up right in my face and I asked him if I could take a portrait of him for my project; at first, he didn't agree, thinking I was some sort of scam and that I was trying to sell him something (like a lot of people do in very touristic crowded areas here in Rome) but once I explained him what I was doing, he kindly agreed.
BAM!
Look at this portrait.
First one of the day and I damn KNEW already it was going to be the best one.
I sticked around for 3 more hours, taking tons of portraits of strangers but, you know, nothing that I ended up liking as much as this one.
And the excitement I got from getting this picture actually shook me off from all the doubts I had in choosing the previous one. Two birds with one stone.
Thanks, Stranger!

Ja eigentlich sollte an der Stelle dieses Bild eines der 23 058 auf der Hohenlohebahn sein. Aber als ich dann nach drei Stunden warten, erfuhr das die Lok schon wieder defekt, ist reichte es nur für ein Bild in Sulzdorf.

All I know about Edson is his name. I saw that he's smoking and having a beer. I do not know more. In the street he wanted to pose a moment, thank you Edson.

I learned something again this week.
People do indeed use horrible wood chip wallpaper to cover up even worse things. And the fact that the room you started with had only one layer of said offending wallpaper doesn't mean that it's gonna be the same in all the other rooms.
It's 28 degrees outside, stripping off wallpaper in humid and hot rooms has already slowed my renovation plans down by 4 days, I am so ill that I can't breathe (which actually helps avoid inhaling any old paint flakes) and here I am at 6pm after just discovering that there are not 1 but 5 old offending layers of wallpaper on my living room wall.

At last we had some of that white stuff here in Helsinki..
..about the photo: I usually don't do much visible post processing for my photos. But as it was quite overcast out there and I wanted to add something to this photo I did some experimentals with Photomatix after a long time. It is an "pseudo-hdr", i.e. converted from only one RAW file. I kind of liked the outcome so may this be the photo for today.

Another day of teaching German students - most enjoyable! The good thing about the German educational system is the early finish. By 11.10am my day was over after my four hour stint and I was off to enjoy the afternoon. Headed over into France to pick up a large consignment of wine in Wissembourg for my host and her friends. A chilled stroll around the picturesque French border town and then it was back to Germany to the SBK supermarket in Dahn which I love - it sells essentials and wonderfully regional German tat such as that pictured. “Make time for happiness” basically. Not a bad maxim to go by. An evening of putting the world to rights fuelled by the odd Weinschorle helped to fulfill that maxim. Tomorrow it’s day 3 of teaching and Leberknödeln with the Head teacher....
