I am a little 'scared' of making this commitment... but this years Everyday in May challenge is going to be drawing people!! Did I say a little scared... quite worried might be more realistic.... but no! I am just being silly!
A whole month dedicated commitment is what I need and this is the book I am going to try to fill (to fill it I would need to do 2 spreads a day.... that is probably too much even for me - I must at least pass half way by the beginning of June)
This book is the A6 version of my regular sketchbook covered with a lovely sheet of Japanese paper...

After accepting each other as life partner, they expressed a lot of joy that had to hold back while the priest held her speech. But it's clear to see their emotion through the warmth of their hands.

One of the people taking part in the Reading Half Marathon. This man is blind and was walking the course (with a little help from a friend!), now that is commitment!
Personal commitment is the act or quality of voluntarily taking on or fulfilling obligations. What makes personal commitment "personal" is the voluntary aspect. In particular, it is not necessary that a personal commitment relate to personal interests.

I took this snapshot while i was having my breakfast in a local coffee downtown St-John's. The weather was wet and miserable. I think she was taking a glance at her reflexion in the window at this particular moment.
I was experimenting with some ideas I have for a wedding I am shooting this summer, and I especially like this shot of Me and my Wife's rings.

The USAF's overseas commitments grew with the start of the Cold War, and the service realized that it needed something even bigger than the C-124 Globemaster IIs then coming into service. Though the C-124 was a suitable aircraft, it was a bit underpowered, and loading large cargo into the Globemaster was difficult because of its high ground clearance. The advent of turboprop powerplants, so well proven by the then-new Lockheed C-130 Hercules, led the USAF to issue a requirement for a very heavy transport aircraft powered by turboprops. Douglas won the bid with the C-133A Cargomaster. It was the first U.S. Air Force aircraft to utilize turboprop engines.
Though they were built by two totally different companies, the C-133 bore some resemblance to the C-130—in some ways, it resembled a stretched out, larger Hercules. Like the C-130, the fuselage interior was left uncluttered by the landing gear, which was carried in side sponsons; also, like the C-130, a large rear loading door and ramp were included for quick loading—unlike the C-124, the C-133 sat low enough to the ground that cargo could be loaded directly into the fuselage. So needed was the C-133 that Douglas skipped building a prototype and went straight into production. The first C-133A flew in April of 1956 and entered revenue service less than a year later.
The Cargomaster fit the USAF's requirements and was the perfect size to transport an entire Titan or Atlas missile as a single piece (the rockets were designed to be able to fit into the C-133's cargo bay); they would also be invaluable to NASA for transporting Saturn rocket pieces, or Gemini and Apollo capsules. The C-133 was not popular with some crews, however: a series of accidents occurred in the early 1960s, enough that the C-133 was dubbed as the "Widowmaker" by some crews. The crashes were traced to issues with propeller pitch and asymmetrical wing stalls; luckily, these problems were easily fixed.
Only 50 C-133s were ever built, and, lacking anything larger—the C-133's cargo capacity had even exceeded that of the jet-powered C-141A Starlifter—the USAF flew them far beyond their intended service life. Finally, by 1970, the Lockheed C-5 Galaxy was in service, and the Cargomasters could finally be retired. It was none too soon: one last crash occurred that year when a C-133 broke apart in midair. After the fleet was retired in 1971, most aircraft were found with fuselage cracks and corrosion, and of the 40 surviving Cargomasters, 33 were scrapped almost immediately. Seven aircraft survive today, and one C-133A—despite its age and hard use—remained operational with an Alaskan cargo airline until 2008.
This C-133A, BuNo 59-0527, is one of these lucky survivors. It was delivered to the 1501st Air Transport Wing (later the 60th Military Airlift Wing) at Travis AFB, California, in 1960. It would spend its entire career there, flying cargo across the Pacific, especially to Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. It was among the last of the C-133s to be retired in 1971 and donated to the PASM in 1973.
59-0527 looks rough around the edges, resulting from decades of exposure to the desert air; hopefully, it will be cosmetically restored soon. This was not the first time I had seen a C-133; I had seen one at the NMUSAF in Dayton back in 2010, but it was the first one I could take a photo of as I had a camera on me.
