My buddy David Knight and crew filmed the transit in 3D. Here, and below, are his favorite four photos from 9,500 shots. He asked them to make this pivot for the photos.

 

He also wrote to say: "the public will not be able to actually access or look into the Shuttle's interior, so the Science Center is going to utilize our Everyscape VR Tour to give visitors the ability to ‘go inside Endeavour’! They are putting together an interactive kiosk that will also have a larger monitor above it, so that people can watch someone ‘navigate’ through the depiction."

 

This view inside was synthesized from my photos by Everyscape.

Sir John Barran BT (1821 - 1905) is in some ways one of the forgotten names of Leeds and of the industry he helped pioneer - ready made clothes. John Barran moved to Leeds from London in 1842 and set up a tailors and clothes shop in the city. By 1851 he had set up a workshop using what was then a new technology, the Singer sewing machine then imported from the USA, and in 1858 he adapted woodworking technology, in the form of the bandsaw, to the cutting of cloth. Barran's genius was to bring these component technologies and staff together in a factory setting and to produce decent, ready made clothing - workshops became factories. In many ways Barran was a generation ahead of Leeds companies that would become High Street names such as Burton's and the Fifty Shilling Tailors, alter John Collier.

 

Barran had a number of factories in Leeds as his business grew, these included ones in Alfred Street, Park Row and most importantly, the splendid Moorish style factory and warehouse in St. Pauls Street opened in 1878, designed by T Ambler, and that is now a Listed building. Barran was also actively involved int he politics of his adoptive city being Mayor (1870 - 71) and then as a Liberal MP (1876 - 1885) and then for Otley (where I am writing this) from 1886 - 1895, the year he was created a Baron. In some respects his greatest memorial in the city is the marvellous Roundhay Park, the political battle for which he was especially involved.

 

The company, run his his descendents, celebrated their centenary in 1951 and produced this marvellous book written by David Ryott, with illustrations by David Knight MSIA, covers by Barnett Freedman and printed in Leeds by E J Arnold. By this date the company, whose brands included Varsity, Achilles and Fashion-Sport, had factories in Leeds, a new venture in Gateshead on the Team Valley Trading Estate that had opened in 1937 as well as one in Morpeth.

The big man tucks-in as he blasts down the straight. Heading for his 4th Weston solo bike win, taking victory by over 7 minutes, having lapped everyone apart from Jamie Lewis in 2nd place.

Winner, David Knight and runner-up, Eddy Edmondson after the race.
