Composed largely of rock formations and covering an estimated area of 0.12 km², these islands are an important sanctuary for marine fauna like the guanay guano bird, the blue-footed booby and the tendril. Other notable species include Humboldt penguins and two varieties of seals (fur seals and sea lions), amongst other mammals.

A vermicomposting bucket is mixed with food waste and worms. Several different species of worms such as Canadian nightcrawlers, red wigglers or earthworms are excellent at decomposing organic waste products and turn those throwaway food scraps, paper or yard waste into compost as beneficial soil amendments. Compost is the key to organic farming and researchers at MU's Bradford Research Center in Columbia are looking at ways to make this style of food production more efficient and affordable.

Composed of a profile and en face photos of a very tolerant friend, who knew what is coming. This my theft from Picasso. He was quoted as saying: "Good artists copy, great artists steal". In my case it is obviously a copy, as I am trying to understand what he was doing by trying to emulate. I plan to do more such copying ideas from various painters as a way of understanding their work better and to import new ideas to my work. Hopefully the course on modern art (paintings only) will thus bear fruits.
In the profile photo, my friend was serious and pensive and in the other he had a smile or perhaps a grin and a spark in the eye. So- these are a highly stylised reflections of his 2 moods.

On Monday 18 May 2015 I attended a one day workshop on letterpress printing. This was a ‘surprise’ present for my birthday in April but because the company, www.typoretum.co.uk only run courses to a set timetable, it was a month or so later than my actual birthday.
Based in Coggleshall, Essex, the workshop allowed me to re-visit my past. My first job, on leaving school in April 1962, was as an apprentice compositor for a Birmingham based company, Buckler & Webb Ltd. So it was fun to go back to ‘play’ with proper type and all of the other stuff that goes with it, chases, presses, thins, mids and thicks, furniture, coins, leading (pronounced ledding) and whole host of stuff that comes with letterpress typography. Oh yes, and composing (or setting) sticks.
Letterpress printing has a measurement system of its own based on ‘pica’ or pica’s to be more precise. One inch (almost) equals seventy-two points. But the difference when setting type is important, but it’s close enough.
The owner of the business, Justin, and his colleague Rob, gave us an insight into the world of movable type and we ended up printing out our efforts for posterity.
My two other workshop colleagues were Scott, and lovely lady from Louisiana but now residing in Wandsworth, and Karen, also from Wandsworth. Some of the photographs in this album are of them both, and also a few of Justin and Rob.
We were provided with lunch by Justin’s wife, and delicious it was too. The ‘hot’ savoury scones went perfectly with the vegetarian thick multi-faceted soup!
As for the course; well, I had forgotten lots about letterpress printing but it came back to me slowly. On hand to help were the ‘experts’, and I did achieve an end result. Oddly, I took photographs of Karen and Scott’s worthy prints, but not my own. But I can remedy that when I add a picture of it later to this album!
A fun day, with nice people and it was a totally enjoyable experience. More on this course can be found here:
This curve made me crazy. Shot it many times and could not get the exposure and DOF I wanted. So I layered a few shots and "composed" this. Not perfect, but I can live with it...for now.

composed scenes. Woman pouring perfume on woman lying down.
This stereo is a bit blurry, and without a dedicated photographer.
What a funny idea to pour perfume in the cleavage of his friend...
Everyone does what he likes!
An eye neck passing to the knee, see the beginning of a garter.
But the real star of this scene is obviously the dress!
Cette stéréo est un peu floue, et sans photographe attitré.
Quelle drôle d’idée de déverser du parfum dans le décolleté de son ami…
Chacun fait ce qui lui plaît !
Un cou d’œil en passant jusqu’au genou, voir le début de la jarretière.
Mais la vraie vedette de cette scène est évidemment la robe !
Spent a couple of weeks at my sisters pad in Pontville, Tasmania. Recorded three tracks with Tor and worked on new songs.
A number of years ago, when I was around 10, I loved comics, mainly for the artwork.
Then, around the mid 80s. Well. We had the shoulder pad excesses and it all seemed a little trite and silly so I gave up on it all. Comics had, at the hands of the biggest players, jumped the shark, it seemed to me.
And then the tablets came and then.... I dont remember. Either iFanboys fabulous podcast encouraged me to try to find comics again or Comixologies excellent app encouraged me back into that realm. Which came first? Well, that is a fight unfinished. So far.
Drawn on breaks over two days on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 which, at times struggled but is a lovely machine. Love the form factor and screen ratio.
App: Photoshop Touch. Like that loads, the more I use it the more I like it. ((Hoping it sees more brush types in a future update though)). Stylus = my very much liked Nomad Compose (short hair) with a couple of hits of a Pogo Sketch Pro which I find suits the Galaxy very well. Added a frisson of Snapseed editing just before upload too.
Hope you like.

Entrance to the lava tunnels on Floreana.
Floreana (Post Office Bay)
Located approximately 4 to 5 hours west of Española and equal distance south of Santa Cruz, this island has long been a favorite site of visitors including pirates, whalers and early settlers. One of the oldest islands Floreana illustrates the aging process of a volcanic island. Unlike the younger western islands, Floreana's volcano has been long extinct and is in the advanced stages of erosion. The erosion process gave the island the nutrients and soils need to sustain plant life. The combination of this rich soil and a good water supply have given the highlands of Floreana a diversified landscaping of native and introduced flora. Floreana is best known for its colorful history of buccaneers, whalers, convicts, and colonists. In 1793 British whalers established the Post Office Barrel to send letters to and from England. This tradition has continued over the years, and even today visitors may drop off and pick up letters, without stamps, to be carried to far destinations. Punta Cormorant offers two highly contrasting beaches. The landing beach is of volcanic origin and is composed of olivine crystals, giving it a greenish tinge. At the end of the short trail is a carbonate beach of extremely fine white sand. Formed by the erosion of coral skeletons, it is a nesting site for green sea turtles. In the 1930's Floreana was the setting for intrigue and mystery. A German dentist and his mistress, a young family (the Wittmer family who still live on the island) and a self-styled baroness with three men came to settle in the island. Shortly after the baroness and her lovers arrived chaos began. The baroness and her entourage terrorized the other inhabitants while planning to build a luxury hotel. Eventually the baroness, two of her lovers and the dentist all turned up missing or dead. There has been much investigation searching for what really happened on Floreana, but there have never been any hard answers. John Treherne wrote of these people in "The Galapagos Affair". Post Office Bay is one of the few visitor sites, that is visited for its human history. Whaling Captain James Colnett established the wooden post barrel in the early 1793. At the time whaling was a big industry, ships were typically gone for 2 years at a time. The Galapagos Islands were a frequent stop for these ships. Outbound ships would drop off letters after rounding the cape and the ships returning home would mail them. Over the years thousands of ships have stopped to send and receive mail at Post Office Bay. Many have posted a sign of driftwood or other materials memorializing their visit. This is the only area in the Galapagos were graffiti is still acceptable. Arriving at Post Office Bay you will land on a brown sand beach, passing the sea lions lying in the sun. At the post barrel the guide will pull a hand full of letters for the group. Continuing the tradition, the letters are brought home with the traveler and then mailed to the addressee. Visitors also have the opportunity to send letters of their own.There is also the remains of a Norwegian Fishing Village a commercial fishing operation established in 1926 and abandoned a couple of years later. The group of Norwegians arrived with dreams of riches started a fishing and can operation on $900 each. The tough Galapagos life and a few misfortunes had them abandon their dreams.
Galapagos Islands
The Galápagos Islands (official name: Archipiélago de Colón; other Spanish names: Islas de Colón or Islas Galápagos) are an archipelago of volcanic islands distributed around the equator in the Pacific Ocean, some 900 km west of Ecuador. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site: wildlife is its most notable feature. Because of the only very recent arrival of man the majority of the wildlife has no fear of humans and will allow visitors to walk right up them, often having to step over Iguanas or Sea Lions.The Galápagos islands and its surrounding waters are part of a province, a national park, and a biological marine reserve. The principal language on the islands is Spanish. The islands have a population of around 40,000, which is a 40-fold expansion in 50 years. The islands are geologically young and famed for their vast number of endemic species, which were studied by Charles Darwin during the voyage of the Beagle. His observations and collections contributed to the inception of Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.

GAR Grave Marker
George W. Martin
The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) was a fraternal organization composed of veterans of the Union Army, US Navy, Marines and Revenue Cutter Service who served in the American Civil War. Founded in 1866 in Decatur, Illinois, it was dissolved in 1956 when its last member died. Linking men through their experience of the war, the GAR became among the first organized advocacy groups in American politics, supporting voting rights for black veterans, lobbying the US Congress to establish veterans' pensions, and supporting Republican political candidates. Its peak membership, at more than 490,000, was in 1890, a high point of Civil War commemorative ceremonies. It was succeeded by the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War (SUVCW), composed of male descendants of Union veterans.
The American Civil War was a dramatic and traumatic event, throwing together soldiers from very diverse backgrounds and communities. After the cessation of the war, when the United States began to rebuild itself, many of these veterans wished to keep in contact with each other, using their shared experiences as a basis for fellowship. In 1866, Benjamin F. Stephenson established the Grand Army of the Republic in Decatur, Illinois, specifying that membership would be open to all honorably discharged soldiers who had fought on the side of the Union.
Old First United Methodist Church

Founded in 1809 and is the oldest functioning church in Monmouth County.
The corner-stone was laid May 16, 1809, at 11 o'clock, according to the statement of Mrs. Theodore Woolley, whose mother was born on that day, and related to her this fact. The services lasted from 11 o'clock in the morning until 6 in the evening.
The Negro Hill Massacre c. 1780 Mechanicsville
In or about the year 1780 there occurred in the present Borough of West Long Branch an event, which has been called the Negro Hill Massacre. It occurred on what is now the location of the present Old First Methodist Church Cemetery. During the Revolutionary War the English government offered freedom to all slaves who would run away and join their forces and help put down the "Rebels" as the Patriots were then called. Several local runaway slaves joined a party of Refugees or Loyalists, which were located at Sandy Hook, which was in British control at that time. From there they were sent out on small raiding parties to plunder and collect information on the Patriots and there intended movements in the area. In these forays the many lawless acts they committed was enough to cause the locals a thirst for revenge. In what the thought would be one of there usual raids they passed through lower Sea Bright and Long Branch and then through Tinton Fall's they took a circuitous route, then came out near where the present Old First Methodist Church now stands, not knowing that all this time they had been followed by a group of "Local Militia". They halted for a rest, little dreaming what would be in store for them. They were taken so much by surprise they had no chance for defense, and the whole party were soon bayoneted to death except Sam, a run away slave from the Woolley Plantation who was left for dead. A local living near by found Sam and still seeing life in him, returned him to the Woolley Plantation where he was nursed back to health and lived nearly 40 years after the event. He carried the grave marks of 11 bayonet wounds on his hands and breasts the rest of his life.

Glamorous, mysterious diva Zarah Leander (1907-1981) was a Swedish actress and singer, who is now best remembered for her German songs and films from the late 1930s and early 1940s. With her fascinating and deep voice, she sang melancholy and a bit frivolous songs specifically composed for her. Zarah was for a time the best-paid film star of the Third Reich. In her Ufa vehicles, she always played the role of a cool femme fatale, independently minded, beautiful, passionate, self-confident and a bit sad. It gave her the nickname 'the Nazi Garbo', but a recent book claims that she was, in fact, a Soviet spy
Zarah Leander was born Sara Stina Hedberg in Karlstad, Sweden, in 1907. Her parents were Anders Lorentz Sebastian Hedberg and Matilda Ulrika Hedberg. Although she studied piano and violin as a small child and sang on stage for the first time at six, Sara initially had no intention of becoming a professional performer. She led an ordinary life for several years. As a teenager, she lived for two years in Riga (1922–1924), where she learned German and worked as a secretary. She married actor Nils Leander in 1926, and they had two children: Boel (1927) and Göran (1929). In 1929, she had her breakthrough when her counter-alt voice was recognised by revue king Ernst Rolf. In his touring cabaret, she sang for the first time 'Vill ni se en stjärna' (Do you want to see a star?) which soon would become her signature tune. She got a record contract with the Odeon company, for which she recorded 80 songs till 1936. One of the songs she recorded in 1930 was Marlene Dietrich's 'Ich bin von Kopf bis Fuß auf Liebe eingestellt' from Der Blauen Engel/The Blue Angel (Josef von Sternberg, 1930). In the early 1930s, Leander played in several shows and performed in three Swedish films, including Dantes Mysterier/Dante's Mysteries (Paul Merzbach, 1930) and Falska Millionären/The False Millionaire (André Berthomieu, Paul Merzbach, 1931). Her persona in those films was already that of the singing, mundane vamp. She had her definitive breakthrough as Hanna Glavari opposite the legendary Swedish film star Gösta Ekman in Franz Lehár's operetta 'Die lustige Witwe' (The Merry Widow) (1931). In 1932 she divorced Nils Leander. She declined American work offers but she opted for an international career on the European continent because of her two school-age children. In 1936 she went to Vienna to star at the Theater an der Wien in the operetta 'Axel an der Himmelstür', composed by Ralph Benatzky and directed by Max Hansen. This parody of Hollywood and Greta Garbo was a huge success. She also got the role of a successful revue star in the Austrian film Premiere (Geza von Bolvary, 1936) with Karl Martell. Then she was offered a three-film contract by the German Universum Film AG (Ufa) studios, as propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels was looking for a new muse of the cinema of the Third Reich. She would earn approximately 200,000 Reichsmark and 53% of her gage would be paid in Swedish Kronor (crowns). Leander said "yes", despite the political situation.
Zarah Leander's first film at Ufa was Zu neuen Ufern/To New Shores (1936) directed by Detlef Sierck (later known as Douglas Sirk). After the other two films of her contract, La Habanera/Cheated by the Wind (Detlef Sierck, 1937) with Ferdinand Marian, and Heimat/Home (Carl Froelich, 1938) with Heinrich George, she was so popular that Josef Goebbels, who according to his diaries did not like her, had to continue her contract. On renewal, her salary increased even further, and in 1940 the Ufa offered her a contract for six films, to be produced in the following two years, for a total of 1 million Reichsmark. Zu neuen Ufern had launched songs such as 'Ich steh' im Regen' (Standing in the rain) and 'Yes, Sir', that were sold on record in various languages. These songs earned her more money than her films, even if she was the best-paid German female film star in the early 1940s. Her songs 'Davon geht die Welt nicht runter' (It is not the End of the World) and 'Ich weis, es wird einmal ein Wunder gescheh'n' (I Know One Day a Miracle Will Happen) from her film Die grosse Liebe/The Great Love (Rolf Hansen, 1942) received double entendre in the time they were distributed and struck chords with the Germans. Among her other films in those years were the comedy Der Blaufuchs/The Blue Fox (Viktor Tourjansky, 1938) with Paul Hörbiger, a biopic of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, Es war eine rauschende Ballnacht/It was a Gay Ball Night (Carl Froelich, 1939) with Marika Rökk, Der Weg ins Freie/The Way to Freedom (Rolf Hansen, 1941) with Hans Stüwe, and the crime film Damals/In the Past (Rolf Hansen, 1942) again opposite Hans Stüwe. In her films, Leander often portrayed independent, fatal women, with strong will-power but haunted by destiny. In real life, she was a 'tough cookie' too, as she demanded that she should select her scripts and composers. At a party, Goebbels once asked her ironically: "Zarah... Isn't this a Jewish name?" "Oh, maybe", she answered him, "but what about Josef?" "Hmmm... yes, yes, a good answer", Goebbels had replied, according to IMDb.
Zarah Leander never became a party member and refused to take German citizenship, but her films and song lyrics were viewed by some as propaganda for the Nazi cause. After her villa in the fashionable Berlin suburb of Grunewald was bombed during an air raid in 1942 and the increasingly desperate Nazis pressured her to apply for German citizenship, she decided to break her contract with Ufa. In 1943, she secretly left Germany and retreated to Sweden, where she bought a mansion at Lönö, not far from Stockholm. Initially, she was shunned by much of the artistic community and public in Sweden (In 1936 the reactions were completely different when she started to work in Nazi Germany. Most of her Ufa films were very popular in Sweden as in the rest of Europe). In November 1944, Swedish radio decided to no longer play her records. But, as Antje Ascheid describes in her in-depth study 'Hitler's Heroines', Zarah's role was complex: "She regularly supported communal fundraisers and appeared in 'request concerts' - live radio shows in which famous star singers performed songs requested mostly by soldiers on the front - that aired all over the Reich. In addition, Leander was frequently depicted attending social functions at the homes of political leaders, which further linked her public persona to Nazi officials in power." After the war, she was severely questioned, but in 1947 she managed to record her songs again in Switzerland, where she also sang for the radio. Concert tours followed, first in Switzerland, then in 1948-1949 in Germany; and in 1949 she performed in Sweden again. Leander tried her luck once more in the film. Gabriela (Geza von Cziffra, 1950) was the third biggest box office hit of that year in Germany. The following films, Cuba Cubana (Fritz Peter Buch, 1952) with the new and younger idol O. W. Fischer, and Ave Maria (Alfred Braun, 1953) with her old partner Hans Stüwe, were both disappointments.
Thus Zarah Leander's film career came to an end, even though she still did four more films till 1966. Her last film was the Italian comedy Come imparai ad amare le donne/Love Parade (Luciano Salce, 1966) with Michèle Mercier, Nadja Tiller, and Anita Ekberg. Leander would continue with musicals and operettas on stage, however, and she also sang her now evergreens in TV shows. She published her memoirs, 'Zarah's minion' (Zarah's Memories), in 1972. In 1975 she played in her last musical, 'Das Lächeln einer Sommernacht' by Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler based on Ingmar Bergman's film Sommernattens leende/Smiles of a Summer Night (1955). In 1979 Zarah Leander officially retired and in 1981 she died of a stroke in Stockholm and was buried on her estate Lönö. She was married three times. After Nils Leander, she was married to journalist Vidar Forsell (1932-1943). Her third husband was pianist Arne Hülphers from 1956 till his death in 1978. In 2003 a bronze statue was raised in Zarah Leander's hometown of Karlstad at the Opera House of Värmland where she began her career. After years of discussions, the town government, at last, accepted this statue on behalf of the first Swedish local Zarah Leander Society. A year later the book 'The Mystery of Olga Chekhova' (2004) by Anthony Beevor was published, in which the author claimed that both Olga Tschechova and Zarah Leander worked for Soviet intelligence during World War II. According to the author she supplied information about Nazi Germany to a Soviet contact during her visits home to Sweden. In Germany, Zarah Leander is still an icon of the gay community, and her persona has been recreated by many drag queens. Performers like Nina Hagen have covered her songs, and director Quentin Tarantino used her song 'Davon geht die Welt nicht runter' (It is not the End of the World) in his war thriller Inglourious Basterds (2009).

British postcard. British International Pictures nr. 114.
Claude Hulbert (1900-1964) was a British actor who was very prolific in the 1930s and 1940s. He also scripted a few films and composed some soundtracks. Claude Hulbert was the brother of actor Jack Hulbert.
Claude Noel Hulbert (1900–1964) was a British comedian, born in London, and like his elder brother Jack he studied at Cambridge University. As an undergraduate, he was a member of the Footlights comedy club. In the 1920s he started to perform on stage and acted for instance in the Gershwin musical Oh Kay!, which was performed in London in 1927. Apart from an uncredited part in the silent Hitchcock film Champagne (1928), Hulbert’s film career really began in the sound era. From 1930 on, Hulbert was visible in film, his roles getting bigger by the years. Hulbert began by supporting Ralph Lynn comedies before he got his first lead in the comedy Their Night Out (1933), which costarred Renee Houston and Binnie Barnes. In that year, Hulbert did various films for British International Pictures (see postcard), but more often as co-star. He had the male lead again in Big Business (1934), a comedy by Cyril Gardner, co-scripted by Gardner and Hulbert, and produced by Warner and First National. Occasionally Hulbert worked with his brother. In 1934 he wrote the song ‘My Hat’s on the Side of My Head’ for Jack Hulbert’s song and dance comedy Jack Ahoy! In 1935 Claude Hulbert had a supporting role in a Gaumont International production with his brother Jack and Fay Wray starring: Bulldog Jack (Walter Forde 1935), a crime story which involved scenes at the British Museum and the London Underground. And in 1940 Claude would write the song ‘Conga’ for Jack Hulbert’s film Under Your Hat (dir. Maurice Elvey).
In 1935 Hulbert played the lead of Henry Pennyfeather in what is said to have been his most successful solo film of the mid-1930s, but now a lost film: Hello Sweetheart, a comedy directed by Monty Banks, produced by again Warner/First National, and co-starring Gregory Ratoff and Jane Carr. It was a comedy about a naive farmer who loses all to perfidious grifters who convince him to invest in their movie and halfway dump him. The farmer though manages to finish the film himself, turning it into comedy and creating a big success. But, as Wikipedia writes, ‘like most of Hulbert's starring comedies, however, its ambition was strictly small-scale; it seemed that British studios simply didn't see him as a major star.’ His budgets were always limited too, reducing most of his output to a kind of B-movies. Still, Hulbert had interesting partners in his films, such as Douglas Fairbanks jr. and Laura La Plante in Man of the Moment (Monty Banks 1935). Hulbert’s film career got a boost with Wolf's Clothing (Andrew Marton 1936), in which he starred as the upper-class twit Ambrose Girling who is a lookalike of a notorious assassin. Hulbert’s female costar was Lili Palmer, in one of her first roles in Britain.
After some minor parts in comedies, Hulbert had a long series of leads in the late 1930s while he also started to expand his genre repertory, such as the adventure film Hail and Farewell (Ralph Ince 1936) about sailors on leave, and the crime story The Vulture (Ince 1937) about a detective capturing jewel thieves in Chinatown, but even these films had comical aspects. Most other leads of Hulbert then were in comedies, like in Olympic Honeymoon/Honeymoon-Merry-Go-Round (Alfred J. Goulding 1940), ‘where he played a bumbling bridegroom who unintentionally becomes an ice-hockey star’ (Wikipedia). When war broke out in 1939, Hulbert played in war comedies too, like Sailors Three (Walter Forde 1940), about three sailors who accidentally get aboard a Nazi ship. In 1941 Hulbert became a popular side-kick for comic actor Will Hay in The Ghost of St Michael's (Marcel Varnel 1941) in which Hay hunts a killer ghost in Scotland. It took two years for Hulbert’s subsequent role as co-star in the crime story The Dummy Talks (Oswald Mitchell 1943), starring debuting actor Jack Warner. In the same year, Hulbert was Hay’s sidekick again in the dark comedy My Learned Friend (Basil Dearden, Will Hay 1943), about a seedy lawyer threatened by a vengeful escaped convict. In the late 1940s, Hulbert continued to play in film but his appearances became scarcer and smaller.
NB As a film actor Claude Hulbert was less of a leading man than his brother, but he excelled as a radio broadcaster, often in partnership with his wife, actress Enid Trevor, whom he had married in 1924. In 1964 Claude Hulbert died in a hospital in Sydney, during a world cruise with his family.

Duxbury Reef is composed of Monterey Shale. Watching the tide come in over the stone beach I noticed that while the water initially wetted the entire surface equally, it dried unevenly to reveal a gorgeous cellular pattern. After I noticed that, we started splashing water everywhere to create more wide spread patterns.

Pleomorphic lung carcinoma is composed of 10% or more of spindle cells and/or giant cells admixed with variable amounts of adenocarcinoma, squamous carcinoma, or large cell carcinoma. Some are composed solely of spindle cells and/or tumor giant cells. This case is characterized by the presence of pleomorphic, undifferentiated cells and numerous giant cells. The diagnosis can only be made in a surgical specimen, not in a biopsy specimen. The type(s) of non-spindle cell carcinoma that are present should be mentioned in the pathology report. The term “sarcomatoid carcinoma” should be avoided because it is an umbrella term encompassing pleomorphic carcinoma, carcinosarcoma, and pulmonary blastoma.
