Paper: Southworth Parchment Deed (old stock)
Iodiser: Le Gray / Pelegry (no whey, just lactose)
Sensitiser: Le Gray. 7% Silver, 7% Acetic
Washed for five minutes, dried, then exposed.
Exposure: 10.5 minutes @ f/3.7, EV 9 (dark, overcast, indoors)
Development: immersed for ~ 40 seconds in Ferrous Sulphate developer.
Ferrous Sulphate__ 6.8g
Glacial acetic acid__ 12ml
Distilled water ____ 200ml
washed for ten minutes, then fixed in a 9% solution of anhydrous hypo.
Observations: Iron development was rapid, but produced a weak image. The negative was floated image side down, then flipped and rocked to immerse. All details were out by 30 seconds, then nothing seemed to change, so I removed the paper for fear of fogging. Of the the three papers tested, this was the strongest. Mars Vellum and Canson Marker developed in under a minute, but the details were barely discernible. I made an attempt at intensification by adding aceto-nitrate to the developer, but this was a mistake. Within about a minute, the silver had precipitated out of the developer, resulting in a fogged negative (canson).
For my next test, I will reduce the wash time to two minutes after sensitising. I will also test an unwashed sheet.

USAID hosted a Signature Event —Shared Progress: Modernizing Development Finance on September 22, 2016 in New York City, NY. Running concurrently to the United Nations General Asembly, the event highlighted the challenges and opportunities for financing current and future development goals.
During the event, UAID Administrator Gayle Smith and Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), Christine Lagarde, discussed how to foster an enabling environment for private investment and increasing domestic resource mobilization. A panel of speakers also offered recommendations on how to make better use of the three streams of finance in order to improve development outcomes.

Light The North charity fundraising art trail goes live on Monday 9th August 2021, this is a regular fundraising event that raises much needed cash for various good causes each year , this year it is Clan Cancer Support , the lighthouse sculptures have already started to be placed in their designated spots in time for the launch on the 9th August , I have tracked some of those down and hopefully will complete the trail over the coming weeks , posting all my shots of my progress in this album .
Fifty stunning lighthouse sculptures are being installed this week, ready for the launch of Clan’s spectacular Light The North art trail.
The 2.5 metre-tall pieces, painted by some of the UK’s most talented artists, will shine a light across Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, Moray, Orkney and Shetland from Monday August 9, when the trail is officially launched.
Organised in partnership with Wild in Art, which helped deliver Oor Wullie’s Big Bucket Trail in 2019, Light The North will be a major fundraiser for cancer support charity Clan.
The trail also aims to provide a “light in the dark” for those battling cancer and their families.
A team of Clan’s Light The North volunteers and drivers have now started delivering the 50 lighthouses to their specific locations.
Locals and visitors alike will soon be able to find out where each lighthouse is thanks to an interactive map that will be shared by the P&J and Evening Express when the trail officially kicks off.
Little lighthouses created by local schools for Light The North trail
Each of the 50 lighthouses is unique and backed by a local business. Evening Express, the P&J and Original 106 are among some of the sponsors to have their own dedicated lighthouse.
In addition to the main sculpture trail, 76 little lighthouses created by school pupils will be displayed all over the north of Scotland, including in Aberdeen Science Centre and a number of local businesses. The Evening Express and P&J will share an interactive map of the little lighthouses too.
The lighthouse sculptures were gathered and stored at Shore Porters in Aberdeen ready to be delivered and installed across the north and north-east.
More than 70 schools got involved in Clan’s education initiative which was created to give young people across the north-east, Moray, Orkney and Shetland the opportunity to get creative and help their school or group design a little lighthouse to be featured on the trail.
Lighthouse sculptures to be auctioned off to raise funds for cancer charity
At the end of this year’s Light The North trail, which will be present in each of the areas where Clan Cancer Support operates, all the main 50 lighthouse sculptures will be auctioned off to raise funds for the charity so that it can continue supporting people affected by cancer.
Looking good, Darren Hill, communications and marketing manager with Clan, helping prepare the lighthouses.
Fiona Fernie, Clan’s head of income generation and business development, said: “Clan helps people live with and beyond a cancer diagnosis, but we need your help to continue to be there for them. We’ve seen high demand for our services while facing a significant drop in our income.
“Cancer is not going away, and our services are more indispensable than ever, so we want to encourage everyone to get out and support Clan through Light The North.”
Clan’s Light The North Farewell Weekend will take place from Friday October 29 to Sunday October 31 and the auction is planned for Monday November 1.
Dry tendril. 8 September 2005. Old Woman Creek.
Old Woman Creek is the smallest reserve in the National Estuarine Research System. It is also the only Great Lakes-type, freshwater estuary in the system. The reserve features freshwater marshes, swamp forests, a barrier beach, upland forest, estuarine waters, stream and nearshore Lake Erie.
The background this picture was taken against wasn't great, so have some edited-in bricks instead.
Change is afoot on the Toton Lane to Nottingham park and ride service, since the temporary allocation of mostly double deckers (for social distancing) can be eased off slightly and various members of the RB fleet fill in while the branded vehicles receive attention, with a couple being off the road at any given time. The first of these was 28, now back in traffic on the P&R in its updated livery so now the other buses can have their turn at being repainted.
Reduced PVR:
Although there are six buses branded for the park and ride, a revised timetable sees the same level of service (every 10 min departures with a small amount of recovery time at Toton Lane) but with a PVR of five buses, completely cutting out one of the service boards because a few months ago I sat up all night devising an ingenious new timetable. There are five boards Monday to Saturday and three on a Sunday, so having six branded buses is a massive overkill; four, maybe five would be better.
New Livery for the Darts:
Because I tried to paint all six P&R buses in 2017/18 at the same time, it ended up taking ages and the paint finish was pretty rubbish across all of them. Also I'm a bit sick of the livery now, only having lime green at the front and looking generally uninspired. Because I ideally want to get some more double deckers for the P&R and oust at least three of the Darts onto the 201/211 I wanted to change the livery so it looked better for the P&R but could also be repurposed without me having to repaint them all again.
Repainting 28:
28 is the first Dart to be painted into the revised livery, which isn't too much of a drastic change from the previous one but different enough. The most important part is that I got the finish far better than before, so the whole thing looks neater. Unfortunately I managed to sand off most of the front detail so it looks rather flat... hopefully I won't end up doing the same to the other three. I eventually decided the headlights I painted on looked too rectangular, so I've changed them slightly since this photo and now 28 looks far more like an SLF Pointer. (with the 'rectangle' lights it looks almost like a Mercedes O405!)
Repainting 27 and 31:
Next to be pulled from service is 27, which I'm currently in the process of repainting. 31 wasn't meant to be done until after the Darts, but I had a closer look at it and thought it looked so bad I needed to fix it immediately, so that's being painted at the moment too. I just didn't like the idea of the revised P&R livery on the double deckers, so it's staying in the original P&R livery for now. What I do with it in the future I can worry about when I get to that stage.
Potential for New Buses:
As good as they are, the Darts are a bit of a compromise on the P&R since they are rather small for the job they have. The P&R could really do with a 100% allocation of deckers, but the existing double deckers in the fleet are a bit of a motley collection and, besides, none of them are Euro 6; unlike the Darts with their retrofitted E200 engines. I thought it wouldn't be too impossible to find four - five at a push - double deckers this year to completely renew the P&R fleet, enabling the six buses you see here to be cascaded off to other interesting developments on the RB network.
Of course this relies on some bus/model shows taking place and then me actually getting to them... and then them having models of low floor deckers for sale that aren't £25+ apiece. Hold on, this is sounding less likely by the minute.
In The Meantime:
For now the P&R is mostly back to normal, with 25/6/8/9 on it (providing they aren't breaking down that day) and the 5th board being covered by just about anything Enviro-Dart sized or bigger... 8 the ALX500, 14 the B7 Artic and 20 the BYD electric have all filled in although more commonly it's either 12, 16 or 30. Since going back to normal, the P&R hasn't seen either of the Excels again... yet. When 27 and 31 are finished I'll move on to the other two Darts, then 29 providing I don't change my mind again like I did with 31. Hopefully by then I'll have figured out how viable my "buy 4 or 5 double deckers" plan is and maybe even got some of them! Who knows?
(I mean I really do have a load of things planned for RB which pretty much hinge on me replacing all the current P&R fleet with new deckers.)

Happy New Year folks! For my first picture in 2024 I build this miniature backroom of the Steins;Gate Future Gadget Laboratory. Luckily this location is well documented online and for reference I mainly used this render by ninjo3D. It was a fun built and came together petty well. Hopefully it can make up for the fact that I didn’t included the most interesting part of this figure.

I have tickets to a Charles Lloyd Concert at the Musical Instrument Museum. I am a member. I wanted to familiarize myself with the Museum before the concert so I toured it. It is an incredible treasure in my backyard. A target rich environment for photographers.
The sign reads:
Khong mon (gong chime)
Thailand, mid-20th c.
Bronze, wood, glass, cowskin
Typically played at Thai funerals,
these tuned gongs are mounted on a
frame decorated with the figure of a
thep kinnaree, a woman-swan hybrid
from Thai mythology.
MIM began with a vision to create a musical instrument museum that would be truly global. Realizing most musical museums featured historic, primarily Western classical instruments, MIM’s founder Bob Ulrich (then CEO of Target Corporation) was inspired to develop a new kind of museum that would focus on the kind of instruments played every day by people worldwide. A focus on the guest experience shaped every aspect of the museum’s development. From the beginning, our goal has been to deliver a musical experience that is enriching, inspiring, interesting, and fun.
Today, MIM has a collection of more than 7,500 instruments from more than 200 world countries and territories. The galleries reflect the rich diversity and history of many world cultures. But music and instruments also show us what we have in common—a thought powerfully expressed in our motto, music is the language of the soul.
MIM’s immersive exhibits foster an appreciation of diverse cultures and the craftsmanship and traditions of instrument makers from the past to the present. A visit to MIM is also about experiencing the sensory nature of music and how it affects our emotions. Through state-of-the-art, interactive media, guests can see the instruments, hear their sounds, and observe them being played in their original contexts.

I had a successful molding run yesterday, and as a result there are now two different versions of the BrightScreen: the original microprism style on the left and a new one with a diagonal split image spot inside a microprism collar, shown on the right. This was I think the fourth molding run since the spring of 2018, and we seem to learn something on each run. We're actually getting pretty good at this now......
Makes for a long day, though, as the molding shop is a bit of a drive from home. I left the house at 7:30 yesterday morning and got back home at 9:30 last night. But I have enough screens on hand now that I won't have to do it again for a while.

Having sold three of the five Alexander-bodied Dominators following contract losses, the appearance of two more double-deckers in the Arden Forest fleet is a surprise. Number 7 is a very interesting vehicle, the second prototype of Leyland's B15 project that became the Titan, which was built in 1974 and used as an unregistered development vehicle for a few years before sale to the local Fishwick fleet as FHG 592S. It is designated as the spare double-decker for schools but in view of its historical interest is also likely to attend various rallies.

After half a year of intensive development work, I am proud today to announce release 3.00 of the GlimpseCatcher software (see GUI screenshot above). From its initial launch on, the GlimpseCatcher had become a reference in water drop photography. With software release 2.00 a lot of new features had already been introduced, making the GlimpseCatcher even more versatile for all types of high-speed photography.
Release 3.00 now continues this tradition by further extending the capabilities of the GlimpseCatcher. Its primary purpose is of course still high-speed photography, but some of its new features also make the GlimpseCatcher a universal controller for general creative studio photography.
Already from the start on, the GlimpseCatcher had always been able to precisely control up to 6 (even 12) cameras and strobes in the range of microseconds. With the new INTERVAL-functions it is now also possible to create – with the use of standard system strobes – cut-out masks for freeing picture elements in post-processing. A completely flexible configuration allows for example to take alternately an overexposed picture (for the mask) and a correctly exposed picture. Many other interval configurations are possible.
Besides microseconds it is now also possible to select milliseconds, seconds or minutes as timing units. This makes for example the time-lapse function much more accessible.
Individual channel sequences may now be linked to other channels, either to execute completely identically (IDEM-functions) or to execute an own sequence with a delay in relation to another reference channel (OFFSET-functions). The delay may either be individually configured or it may for example be the standard shutter lag time for the specific camera, which may also be stored in the GlimpseCatcher. At each modification of any of the concerned values, the affected channels are automatically synchronized. This greatly facilitates the workflow.
Speaking of the shutter lag time, the GlimpseCatcher now also offers the possibility to measure durations in the range of microseconds. This allows for example to easily measure the shutter lag time of the camera.
Many more new features are available:
·support for adjustment of external sensors
·individual execution of a single channel for test purposes
·individual flushing of a single channel
·counter for automatic repetitions
·faster restoration of configuration files
·…
The list is too comprehensive to mention everything here. And of course the GUI is Windows 10 compatible. A complete description of the new features may be obtained from GlimpseCatcher@gmx.net.
From today on, all new GlimpseCatchers will directly be delivered with the new software release. Existing GlimpseCatchers may be updated. Please remember that I do this in my spare time, therefore update requests will be handled on a first-come, first-served basis and may take a little while. For any information, please contact me at GlimpseCatcher@gmx.net.
