Apollo Bay, Victoria 2006.
Reprocessing some really old shots from when we first got our 20D. Images were less sharp due to the use of a really bad tripod and composition leaves alot to be desired. Nonetheless , I do remember the area vividly due to how striking the lighting was around sunset. Great holiday spot - or so most of Victoria thought at the time with every camp site filled to the brim.
Apollo 13 Command Module Odyssey on display at the Kansas Cosmosphere in Hutchison, KS
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.

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!

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.
"Apollo 13 Recovery Area -- Two of the Apollo 13 astronauts, John L. Swigert, Jr. (l.) and James A. Lovell, Jr. (center), CDR, await pickup by rescue helicopter, as pararescuemen waits to assist in the operation. They, and astronaut Fred W. Haise, Jr., who was hoisted aboard the recovery helicopter before this photograph was taken, circled the Moon and returned to Earth when spacecraft technical problems eliminated the planned lunar landing by Lovell and Haise in the Moon's Fra Mauro region."

sketchbook drawings of Apollo head (Arundel Collection)
After a couple of years of pretty intense Plein Air painting, I am now spending this winter going back to drawing. I'm not picking anything "easy" these casts and sculptures are very challenging to draw from the motif, and very soon one becomes aware of all sorts of problems. Still I will keep at it and hope something from these studies leads into my easel work at some stage.
Apollo 15 selected photos of interesting specimen rocks on Moon's surface. I enhanced photos for clarity - some are rotated.

The Apollo Fuel Cell was designed to convert cryogenic oxygen (O2) and hydrogen (H2) into electrical power. A vitally important by-product of this chemical reaction was the production of water (H2O) which was used by the astronauts during their mission. A complement of three 28-volt fuel cells provided all the onboard electrical power to the Apollo Command and Service Module (the Lunar Excursion Module was battery powered). Each fuel cell was rated at 1.5kW, with a maximum power of 2.2kW for brief periods. Each fuel cell consisted of 31 cells connected in scries (each producing one volt) and weighed 245 pounds. Each fuel cell had its own hydrogen and oxygen compartment and two electrodes (conductors). The heat produced by the chemical reaction (mixing H2 with O2) was used to maintain the gases at a reactive temperature (385 F) while excess heat was vented into space. The three power cells operated in parallel; although a single power plant was enough to ensure safe return. Fuel cells were first tested during the Gemini program and are still used today, in modified form, aboard the Space Shuttle.

Apollo command module at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. I believe it is Command Module "Kitty Hawk" from Apollo 14, but I may be mistaken. Technically an HDR picture, but without the "surreal" look that many get.
The Sanctuary and Temple of Apollo Hylates at Kourion
Situated about 2,5 kilometres west of the ancient city of Kourion, the Sanctuary of Apollo Hylates was one of the principal religious centres of Cyprus where Apollo was worshipped as Hylates, god of the woodlands.
This well - defined architectural complex in Cyprus offers insight into the development of a Cypriot rural sanctuary from the Bronze Age through to the end of paganism on the island. There were three fairly distinct building periods. The Archaic Sanctuary developed essentially in the 7th century B.C. while the Ptolemaic Sanctuary belongs to the 3rd century BC. Finally, the Roman Sanctuary dates to the 1st century A.D.
It appears the Archaic Sanctuary originally comprised an enclosure in the centre of the later, much larger sanctuary. The present remains date to the mid -1st century A.D.The complex of the sanctuary included a palaestra, stoa, the treasury, the baths, the archaic temenos, the circular monument, the central courtyard and the temple of Apollo. Destroyed by an earthquake in A.D. 365 it was later occupied by squatters. Several of the collapsed buildings have been restored.
The Roman Temple of Apollo Hylates was a magnificent structure occupying the most commanding position at the end of the sacred street of the sanctuary. It had two main architectural phases. The first, dating back to the very end of the Classical or Early Hellenistic period, was a single construction, rectangular in shape. The foundation of the temple and the lower row of blocks decorated with a simple cyma belong to this early phase. The temple was rebuilt in the second half of the 1st century A.D. The approach to the new Roman temple was along an impressive staircase. Its interior followed the architectural features of the earlier temple, but the entire building was constructed on a higher level and had a podium corresponding to the lower row of blocks of the earlier temple. The high podium is a manifestly Roman feature. The temple was destroyed by the severe earthquake of A.D. 364/365.

Apollo 17 (the last mission) was 50 years ago.
Ironically, I saw the Apollo 13 on the launch pad at Kennedy a few days before it was launched on it's historical voyage.

Australia Trip Day 002 - Great Ocean Road, Port Campbell to Apollo Bay to Melbourne
Wake up and check out from Port Campbell and not going to 12 Apostles again because we don't think the scene will be better than yesterday sunset. Hence, we oNly go to The Arch and London Bridge as my co worker telling me along Great Ocean Road have very nice Fish and Chips.
Then I look for Peter for the recommendation and Chris' Restaurant is our selection and have to wait until 6pm only serve for dinner. while waiting for the dinner, we found this place is very nice to have a look for the Apollo Bay as Chris' Restaurant also have the same scenery to see from the restaurant.
Marriner's Lookout is name of this place.

UN Women launches the year-long campaign, "Empowering Women, Empowering Humanity: Picture it!," to spark global dialogue and actions on women's right and gender equality at the Apollo Theater in Harlem, New York.
In the packed theatre, UN officials, feminist activists, celebrities and performers took the stage, to celebrate the achievements of the last 20 years, while underlining the gaps that remain across the world in advancing the women's agenda.
Pictured: Feminist pioneer Gloria Steinem, who co-founded Ms. magazine in 1972 and has been a guiding voice in the women’s movement for more than 30 years.
