With my love of NASA's space program and their accomplishments, I created this Apollo commemorative poster design as a final class assignment to show my Photoshop skills at the end of my first Photoshop class. I actually shopped the poster idea to NASA, but they showed no interest. © Mitch Ridder – All Rights Reserved 2012.

Forget-me-Knot
Confusion reigns in David Tristram’s superb comedy. Is anyone who they say they are?
Production kindly sponsored by Vectis Rotary.
11-13 and 16-19 May 2017 (note changed show dates for this production)
Forget-Me-Knot, by David Tristram, tells the tale of a man who may or may not be Robert Zeinfeld, found wandering and suffering from amnesia. Detective Inspector Monroe is the man charged with working out who this mystery man is, with the help – or rather hindrance – of Mrs Zeinfeld and his own wife Samantha.
Robert is a confused man, not of his own doing – a bump on the head resulting in amnesia and a night in the cells have attributed to that. Inspector Monroe is also a confused man, but he has nobody to blame but himself.
Robert has been found wandering the streets in his confused state. His Filofax knows who he is – but does anybody else? Monroe is on the case – or seems to think he is. More confusion rains down when Robert’s wife is summoned and doesn’t know what’s going on either; but what she does know is that Robert shouldn’t be anywhere near where he was found and probably with a mistress, whom he definitely shouldn’t be anywhere near. When the mistress turns up, utter confusion is unleashed upon the stage. Is Robert who everybody else says he is? Does he really have amnesia? If he doesn’t then what is he doing with a wife like that in the first place? Is anybody actually who they maintain they are?
Forget-Me-Knot has been described as ‘one of the funniest British farces … with superb laugh-out-loud comedy’. We think you’ll agree!
This plaque memorialize the fallen heroes of Apollo 1, Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom -(Vet of Mercury and Gemini) Command Pilot, Edward H. White - (the first American to walk in space) Senior Pilot and Roger Chaffee, Pilot. On Jan 27, 1967 on a "Plugs Out" test, all three perished in a capsule fire. Their horrific sacrifice revamped the entire way the space program was run, thereby saving many more lives in the process. Rest In Peace gentlemen.
Here’s Apollo, my third Galaxy inspired Allan repaint and 32nd Allan doll overall in my collection. This Allan came with severe red stains on his face so I’ve been itching to try incorporating it into a custom so he’s sat around for awhile.
I guess I’m frustrated with this custom cuz it’s my first custom where a majority of it is done in chalk pastel, and it’s nearly impossible to get really bright and vibrant colours. I ended up using half a can of msc on this one doll which is ridiculous to me when I can get brighter colours using paint.
But, having a day to cool off and separate the doll from the ideal in my mind, he’s not a bad custom. In fact I’m really proud of how well the pastels blended together and how much more subtle this galaxy print looks.
His eye paint is very 90s inspired and I was hoping to invoke that feeling you get when you see Sailor Moon transform and her entire body is galaxies except for her eyes.
Fuel cell of the type which exploded in Apollo 13's Service Module.
Apollo 13 was the third manned lunar-landing mission, part of Project Apollo under the NASA in the United States. It launched on April 11, 1970. Two days after the launch, the Apollo spacecraft was crippled by an explosion, causing the Service Module portion of the Apollo Command/Service Module to lose its oxygen and electrical power. The crew used the Lunar Module as a “lifeboat” in space. The command module systems remained functional, but were deactivated to preserve its capability to reenter Earth’s atmosphere upon return to the earth. The crew endured difficult conditions due to severe constraints on power, cabin heat, and potable water, but successfully returned to Earth.
Entrada do Templo. Ruínas do Templo de Apolo construído no século IV a.C. estilo dórico. No interior do templo ficava o famoso Ônfalo, a pedra sagrada que simbolizava o centro do mundo; ao lado dele, a Pitonisa, que proferia os oráculos.
The temple of Apollo, the most important building in the sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi, dominates the temenos from its central position. This is where the statues and other offerings to the god were kept, and where the cult rituals, including that of divination, took place. Also, here was the chresmographeion, or archive, destroyed in 373 BC, which contained the lists of victors of the Pythian games.
According to the legend, the first temple of Apollo at Delphi was made of laurel branches, the second of beeswax and feathers, and the third of bronze, while the fourth was built by the legendary architects Trofonios and Agamedes aided by Apollo himself. This was probably the stone temple destroyed by fire in 548 BC. Its replacement, built with contributions by both Greeks and non-Greeks, was completed around 510 BC by the Alkmaeonid family of Athens. This was a Doric peristyle temple, with six columns at the end and fifteen at the sides. Stone-built and marble-clad, it was sumptuously decorated with sculptures by the famous artist Antenor. The east pediment depicted Apollo's epiphany when he arrived at Delphi with his sister Artemis and his mother Leto; the chariot of the gods occupied the centre of the scene and was framed by male and female figures. Of the west pediment, which depicted the Gigantomachy, only the figures of Athena, a fallen giant, a male figure and two horses have survived.
This temple was destroyed by earthquake in 373 BC. The existing temple, also built with Greek contributions, was not completed until after the Third Sacred War, in 330 BC. This imposing Doric temple was raised by the architects Spintharos from Corinth, Xenodoros and Agathon. It has the same plan and roughly the same dimensions as its predecessor, with six columns at the end and fifteen at the sides, and both prodomos and opisthodomos in antis. The cella was divided into three naves by two colonnades of eight Ionic columns each. The divination ceremony took place in the adyton, or inner shrine, an underground chamber where only the priests interpreting Pythia's words had access. The pedimental sculptures of Parian marble are the work of the Athenian sculptors Praxias and Androsthenes. The east pediment depicted Apollo and the Muses, and the west Dionysus and the Maenads. Little is known of the arrangement of the temple's interior; ancient writers mention that the walls of the pronaos were inscribed with aphorisms of the seven sages, such as 'know thyself', 'everything in moderation' and the letter E. There was a bronze effigy of Homer and an altar of Poseidon, and, in the adyton, a statue of Apollo and the omphalos.
The temple has been partially restored. Fragments of the pedimental sculptures of both the Archaic and the Classical/Hellenistic temple are displayed in the Delphi Archaeological Museum.
Two nearly identical relief panels decorate different facades of a rowhouse building, one panel entitled "Apollo" and the other "Aurora." The Apollo panel is painted yellow and depicts a fiery chariot driven by Apollo, pulled by a team of horses plunging wildly to the right. Above one of the horses is a cherub. In the foreground are three women in classical dress holding hands, in dance poses. The Aurora panel is painted dark green.

I watched one of my favorite movies today, Apollo 13 and it served as a memory that I still had un-edited photos front the California Science Center.
I love NASA and the history of the space race as well as what the future (hopefully) holds for the American space program.
This is the interior of an actual Apollo capsule. This capsule was built for the Apollo 18 moon mission. Sadly the mission was canceled due to funding and this capsule flew as part of the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. Can you imagine being confined with two other guys in this thing millions of miles from Earth?
The only Factory built Apollo with GM Corvette Engine
The Apollo GT was the brainchild of young Californian engineer Milt Brown who wanted to create an American car that could rival the European GT cars of the day. The car was designed by Hungarian engineer and immigrant Frank Reisner who, while on holiday in Turin, established a shop under the name of 'Intermeccanica'. By early 1963, a deal had been made and the first Apollo GT's went on production. The car's bodywork was produced in Turin by Intermeccanica and then shipped across the Atlantic to Oakland, California where Brown installed the drivetrain. The car was first styled by a friend of Milt Brown named Ron Plescia. However, the car's nose was thought to be too long and its rear-visibility too limited. Because of this, Reisner contracted former Bertone stylist Franco Scallion to revisit the design resulting in the current design.
Initially, Apollo's were sold only in two-seat configuration although a later 2+2 prototype was shown at the 1965 New York Auto Show. Brown's International Motorcars sold a total of 88 cars. Unfortunately, production of the car ended in mid-1964 due to a lack of financing.
This example was sold in 1965 and was likely built toward the end of the original round of Apollo production in California. Milt Brown remembers this car were well, as it was to be the transition from Buick 215 Alloy to Chevrolet power. They used the higher horsepower 327 Corvette motor (300 hp) which was a vast improvement over the small Buick motor. Just as the car was completed, Buick came out with their 300 cubic inch motor and the decision was made to continue with the Buick engines for the rest of the Apollos built, making this a unique car among a run of about 39 coupés built by the original company. Dr. Robert Turcios purchased this Chevrolet-powered Apollo in 1975 in Santa Rosa California. In 1976, Dr. Turcios was contacted by Walt Disney Productions, to rent the car to them for their new movie "Herbie goes to Monte Carlo". The car appeared in the movie driven by American Sports Car Legend Max Balchowsky. This one-off large displacement Italian bodied GT from the sixties, that has Milestone status, has been with the same marque specialist for over 40 years in California's dry climate.

Crew: David R. Scott, Commander; Alfred M. Worden, Command Module Pilot; James B. Irwin, Lunar Module Pilot.
Across the street from the motel was an apartment building that was being built. The symmetrical negative space on the right adds a whole new aspect to the photo and almost warps the viewer's perspective a bit. I also believe that the green paint wrapping around the borders of each floor contribute to the depth.

I was honored to have my "Apollo March" premiered on June 15th by one of the finest concert bands in America, the U.S. Air Force Band of the Golden West.
Capt. Joseph Hansen, conductor, said, "David Coppedge's Apollo March possesses vibrant harmonies and colors as well as a powerful melody, capturing the bravery and nobility of the Apollo 11 mission. The textures are interesting and unique; great way to honor the innovative heroes of the American space race."
You can watch the band play it at this Vimeo link.

Sanctuary of Apollo Hylates
About 2,5 kilometres west of the area of Kourion's ancient city stands the temple of Apollo “Hylates”. In it -being one of the main religious centers of ancient Cyprus.
Apollo was worshipped all over Cyprus, and dates back to the middle of the 8th century BC and until the end of the Roman times. Not only he was regarded a God of sea, shepherds, spiritual life, medicine and music, but also the protector of health and good luck.
The sanctuary of Apollo consists of two subterranean rock-hewn rooms, the one is rectangular the other one of a round shape, linked together via a rock-cut dromos (way), located in the eastern necropolis of Pafos. The sanctuary was made by the High Priest Tarvas for the God Apollo, according to a Cypriot syllabic inscription above the main entrance. In 4th century B.C., when Pafos was established, the sanctuary began its function as well.
The Sanctuary of Apollo "Hylates" provides an important illustration of the religious life in the region, from the pre-Hellenic to the Hellenic and Roman eras, a total of at least 1100 years.

His hand finally through the bloody ALUS,
He will be unable to protect himself by sea,
Between two rivers he will fear the military hand,
The black and angry one will make him repent of it.
