End of an Era.

For years, Zimex Aviation’s ATR72s and 42s (with help from Amapola Flyg) have carried the mail across Sweden for PostNord, connecting cities through the night when everyone else was asleep.

 

On the night of 29th of august the final flights arrived as PostNord ends its domestic airmail operations 1 of september.

 

A quiet but historic moment. The end of Sweden’s dedicated postal flights, and the closing of a chapter in Scandinavian aviation.

...at Middleborough High, who defended herself and her home against a male intruder a few days ago. Her quick, adroit thinking and action forced the burglar out of her home. Her home video had the creep from Bourne arrested shortly thereafter. To top off her heroic deeds, she immediately drew on her support system and went out with her friends that very afternoon. I admire brave, fortitudinous and intelligent young women and sincerely hope that they ardently fight for quick passage of the domestic violence bill currently in front of the State Legislature on Beacon Hill in Boston.

This image is dedicated to all the people that worked (and probably a part of them died) in order to develop this monumental building : the Milan duomo.

When I saw this magnific cathedral I asked my self how they did'it....and after I got this picture I realized that it was all about determination and sacrifice and that the Milan duomo is dedicated to us human beings as well as to God..

Dedicated to the Great Patriotic War (World War II), this museum opened in 1995 on the 50th anniversary of the Great Victory.

This building currently serves as the Lake Worth Beach City hall. It once held an auditorium that had a capacity for 350 people on the third floor. This is clearly seen on the front of the building because it still bears the words municipal auditorium.

 

The building features Moorish towers that were designed by G. Sherman Childs. He came to this area in 1913 to work for Addison Mizner until he was able opened his own firm.

 

ThIs building was built to be hurricane resistant as well as to provide shelter since the Great Hurricane of 1928 destroyed so such property before in this area. Money ran but while the building was being built due to the onset of the Great Depression. Local businesses helped financially and the building was finally on dedicated on November 28, 1935.

 

The basement and first floor rooms of this building were used for assemblies and meetings. During WWII the basement was used to entertain the Lake Worth USO.

 

In 1953 the Lake Worth Playhouse began performances in the building but then closed in the 1970's.

 

Today this building is still in use and holds all of the city governmental departments.

When I visited my daughter on March 20 2011, my grandson, Aidan, was telling me about this bird with babies. I was excited and asked him to show me. He took me outside his home and pointed up - "there they are".

Wow - I saw how cute they were and grab my cam from the car.

Thank you Aidan!

 

Update: May10 2012

This pic is sold to Nat Geo for their coming book. Proceeds is going to charity.

The lady who bought the pic had a hard time tracking me down becos the person who downloaded this pic from my Flickr account without my knowledge, plastered this all over the internet and change my name from Ric Seet to Rik Seet. So no one can track the originator down. Now others are profiteering from this scam and here is the link to one such websites. You pay them to download my stolen pic:

 

pixdaus.com/under-her-wings-by-rik-seet-birds-aves-fauna-...

 

When I did a Rik Seet goggle search there are about 4 full pages of links to such websites !

 

www.google.com.sg/search?q=Rik Seet&ie=utf-8&oe=u...

 

This is one of the downside of the internet. To prevent such future mishaps, I have since disabled the download feature under Privacy & Settings. Base on the feedback this is not even safe. Additional advises is to add Watermarks and reduce file size to 800X800. From what I am hearing nothing is save on the net.

Thank you friends for your kind advise. .

 

Update: May13 2012

I managed to write to a few websites/blogs via email and FB.

1. A friend responded on FB and apologize for posting the pic on FB for Mother Day.

2. An Australian cyclist by the name of Craig plaster the pic for 2012 Mother Day. I wrote to inform him that the pic is my and he blocked me off immi'ly. Isn't that just great, steals your pic and ignores you!

3. What's even more interesting is Pixdaus.com has an option for you to complain if your are the owner of the intellectual property. Isn't this a laugh. I presume they believe they excuse themselves of any legal obligation in the eyes of the law by having this feature on their website! I have written to them and waiting for their reply.

 

Update June 1 2012

Today a caring Flickr friend brought to my attention that the above pic was stolen again and this pic was posted on Flickr. Wrote to the person to delete my picture which was done. Not a word of apology.

These people have no shame - steal other pictures and post it like theirs. Even took part in invites and participated at the various levels of award to claim credit for themselves.

here is the link if this shameful person and I have seen another couple of stolen pics as well becos they are too skillful for him. Even wrote to advise that these be remove. I am contacting the legal department of Yahoo in Singapore and making a few suggesting to them to apprehend such people.

Since then more Flickr friends have alerted me. I am now no more angry becos I have learnt to share and come to realized this picture brings great memories & joy to others. One guy wrote to request for a print becos he wanted to place it next to his Bible.

He said that it is "God's Gift To Nature"

  

Update June 4 2012

Great to see that couple of my Flickr friends have added water mark to their pic. Very creative as they take the trouble to strategically position the watermark . I will borrow this idea. Thanks guys!

 

Update Dec 17 2012

Nat Geo is now printing double the number of copies and has agreed to denote US$300/ to charity of my grandson choice - SPCA. Thank you Nat Geo.

 

Update Dec 25 2012

Today I received a very touching letter from a mother who requested this print. I am glad that a picture is worth a thousand words and holds special meaning and brings great joy.

So if you need a print please drop me a Flickr mail and your mailing address. Thank you.

My heart goes out to this special lady and this picture is my gift to her. Some of you are aware that my daughter was critically ill. In her own works she told me she nearly died in Oct. Now I rejoice becos she is making slow recovery ----. A small step at a time!

 

Hi Ric,

I have been searching for the photographer who took the absolutely beautiful photo of the colorful momma bird with it's babies under its wings. I've actually been praying I would find the original photographer. I won't get into the details, but for the last almost 2 years, I've been going through a really hard time with my health due to a horrible medical mistake that I suffered at the hands of a doctor. I will not let anyone tell me I am not going to get better. My husband and my son need me back. This picture holds such meaning for me...I've found it on other websites, which I am so sorry that people are stealing your work, and I have gone back to look at it a lot over the last several months. It brings me great comfort and the colors are just so beautiful and bright. I was wondering if it would be possible to buy a large print of it from you so that I can frame it and have it matted with a verse so I can look at it every day in my house. Would you mind letting me know if it's possible to buy a print from you? If so, what are the size proportions that you could print out for me? The place I want to hang it could handle an overall size of 24"x24" or 24"x28", which would be framed and matted with an inscription matted under it. Hopefully that description makes sense. Would you mind contacting back?

 

Update April 11 2016

Today i received a very comforting email from this lady and I thank her for helping mereach out to others who may need this pic becos of the sentimental/special meaning this pic means to them. For me this pic means a world to me bcos I am a dad to two precious daughters that I love dearly. No matter what -- I will always be there for them as long as I am on this good earth.

 

Hi Ric,

 

I must confess I posted your beautiful picture of the bird shielding her babies under her wings on a tweet and my FB page. I didn't take it from Flickr, I (wrongly) assumed it was in the public domain. Would you like me to remove it or would it be mutually agreeable to post a link to you for your credit and publicity? I am a solicitor working from home writing wills and trusts, hence the family theme, I have not tried to profit directly from the photo, just thought it was a nice image of caring. Sorry.

 

Kind regards,

Elizabeth

 

Thank you Elizabeth. There are lots of caring people on this good earth.

 

Dedicated to my English wife Theresa Jane Brown who was in the boat rafting with friends.

 

The Acheron is a river located in the Epirus region of northwest Greece.

Plato in his Phaedo identified Acheron as the second greatest river in the world, excelled only by Oceanus.

In ancient Greek mythology, Acheron was known as the river of pain, and was one of the five rivers of the Greek underworld.
