I was taken with the brilliant color of this maple leaf - one of many brought down by rain onto a tarp covering our tent. Backlit by reflections of light onto the tarp, it was such an intense red color that I couldn't ignore it and brought out a macro lens to try for a shallow depth of field. The colors reminded me of Air Canada's graphics on the vertical fin of their aircraft.
“Demonstration satellite solar power station – the materials for which would be carried into low earth orbit by Space Shuttle – is 1000 feet square and 25 feet thick. An operational station would be placed in geosynchronous orbit (about 22,000 miles out in space), from where it would beam a continuous stream of microwave energy to earth.”
Above per the Rockwell International lithograph of this gorgeous work, the originator of this proposal.

“Rockwell Station '76
Rockwell Space Station Concept, 1976
American manned space station. Study 1975. North American Rockwell's 'Austere Modular Space Station' was in contrast to more grandiose schemes in the mid-1970's.
Status: Study 1975.
The most important application in those days was constructing large space structures, e.g., extremely large communications satellites, giant 20-kilometer-wide solar power satellites or even giant orbiting space colonies for millions of people. Contemporary space station studies such as Rockwell's and Boeing's were closely tied to this objective. NASA's Outlook for Space report from 1975 recommended a number of possible goals, including development of a 12-man space station in low Earth orbit by 1988 and a similar station in lunar orbit by 1994.

What appears to be the original ‘Austere Modular Space Station’ posting.
I’m sure also by Ted Brown:

An excellent one-two info combo from two disparate sources. Don’cha just love it when a ‘plan’ comes together?
However, while that’s all fine & dandy, what’s truly important, interesting & notable here is:
1.) That it’s by Ted Brown.
2.) That it’s part of an interwoven evolution, sequence & stream of variants and derivatives of similar & related works by Mr. Brown. I don’t recall identifying/recognizing anything like this pertaining to other artist’s works.
3.) Furthermore, within the following wonderful tribute video by Mr. Brown’s amazing & gracious daughter, Angela Carole Brown:

Commencing at the 2:54 mark, an extremely similar variant is shown.
And then, at the 3:24 mark, the close-up of Mr. Brown and an assistant would appear to be of them working on the details of the Manned Remote Workstation (that possibly being Grumman proprietary terminology) depicted in his 1980 “Space Products” mural, to which I’ve provided multiple links in the “Comment” section below.
Fascinating, at least to me.

Clara, as sweet as she can be, bought me a graphics card for Christmas. Actually she came to me and said she had no ideas.......... what did I want. Our computer nerd, son-in-law Lee put it in for us today.
If you are wondering why your 3D that you have on all the CC and CS Extended series doesn't work very well other than to make wine bottles and cones, it's because the computer you bought only has a tiny little graphics card in your motherboard, so you can see the picture on your monitor.
I got a 2 GB card for around $50 that opens up the whole world of 3D tools that you have, but can't use.
If you are using a CC series Photoshop. You can make a Text layer then right click on the blue area in the layer and at the very bottom you will see,"New 3D extrusion from selected layer" If you click it you will get a small extrusion of your type layer, but it's not much and you can't extend it. The Graphics card opens a plethora of tools that will require finding a tutorial to explain their use.
It just always bothered me that the tools were there but I couldn't get to them. You can spend upwards of $500 for a graphics card...but the 2 GB card works for me.
Been working on lots of cool stuff to sell to other photogs, am very excited-LOVE doing this graphics stuff!
and you can put your own photos in the frames and turn on and off the mattes. And change the wall color.
will have greeting card templates for sale too, made w/ lots of cool wallpaper.

Wow: a sports arena converted to church. 16,000 people in one room fixated by a single media environment.
By popular demand :here is my hardware/mods/ingame settings for ETS2 as of now.
Might lower the ingame brightness as I feel that the HDR is a bit strong on the white balance.
No Reshade/SweetFX.
FPS is good, not perfect but easy to play with (also due to heavy mods like ProMods, etc.)
Antialiasing is not perfect but I don't really care that much, to me it's OK for a game that age.
