The Roman ruins of Volubilis are a striking sight, set in the ledge of a high plateau, some 33 kilometres north of Meknes. It is by far the most important Roman settlement in Morocco and the best preserved, having been declared a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997. The scope of the ruins may well be familiar to you: it is the setting of Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation of Christ.
Another old photo. One of the second tier tourist spots in Manila is the Chinese Cemetery. It is an interesting spot, with some very grandiose tombs and draws enough people that there are guides who make a living showing people around. This was our guide when we were there.
As an aside, I have been looking over some old film scans, this is one of them. I have to say that the scanning of film takes forever, but once that is done, good exposures really need almost no processing and they do have a very nice character of whatever film stock you were using. I think this was Kodak Elitechrome.
A ranger begins a tour aboard the Lake Queem II on Yellowstome Lake as it leaves Bridge Bay marina in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. Yhe tour boat gives senic tours around the Lkae Village and Stevenson Island Area in the summer. Usually there is a ranger aboard to give the narration and tell about the both the history and natural history of the Lake area.
With a surface area of 132 square miles, Yellowstone Lake is the largest lake at high elevation (i.e., more than 7,000 ft.) in North America. It is a natural lake, situated at 7,733 ft. above sea level. It is roughly 20 miles long and 14 miles wide with 141 miles of shoreline. It is frozen nearly half the year. It freezes in late December or early January and thaws in late May or early June.Recent research by Dr. Val Klump of the Center for Great Lakes Research and the University of Wisconsin has revolutionized the way we look at Yellowstone Lake. Figuratively, if one could pour all the water out of Yellowstone Lake, what would be found on the bottom is similar to what is found on land in Yellowstone; geysers, hot springs, and deep canyons. With a small submersible robot, the researchers found a canyon just east of Stevenson Island which was 390 ft. deep. Prior to this finding, the deepest spot in the lake was thought to be 320 ft., at West Thumb.Underwater geysers, hot springs, and fumaroles were found at West Thumb and Mary and Sedge Bays. The hottest spot in the lake was found at Mary Bay where the temperature was recorded at 252° F (122° C). Hollow pipes, or chimneys of silica, several feet in height, were found rising up from the lake bottom at Mary Bay. It is thought that these are the old plumbing systems of now dormant geysers. Rock spires up to 20-feet tall were found underwater near Bridge Bay. Samples of this rock are being analyzed, though it is believed that these features are probably related to underwater thermal activity.This group of researchers also found that the conditions in Yellowstone Lake are similar to those that occur near the famous hydrothermal vents on the Pacific Ocean's mid-ocean ridge. Nutrient- and mineral-rich submarine fountains support incredible plant and animal communities, including bacterial mats, sponges, and earthworms.
Avant que sa déconstruction ne s’amorce, PJCCI a offert à la population des visites guidées du pont Champlain. Ces visites à caractère historique de 90 minutes, présentées en collaboration avec la Fondation Héritage Montréal, ont eu lieues durant les deux premières fins de semaine de novembre 2019. Les participants ont pu descendre sur le pont Champlain d'origine pour capter des images inédites et vivre une expérience mémorable.
Before the deconstruction starts, JCCBI offered guided tours of the Champlain Bridge to the public for two weekends. These historic 90-minute tours presented in collaboration with Heritage Montreal were offered during the first two weekends in November. Visitors to the original Champlain Bridge can capture never-before-seen images and enjoy a memorable experience!
Same guides, re-fuzzied! This took some skill and patience, but was done well. You cannot seem to buy these pads anywhere for some reason. Wide self-adhesive industrial velcro would work in a pinch - get some at Ace or Elliots hardware or doitbest.com.
Heat the parts to 105*F first so the fuzzy stuff gets softer and conforms to the tight bends.

there seems to be a shortage of people-models (victims) who are willing to subject themselves to unpaid practice sessions so i can figure out how to use this lens properly. so i’ve tapped another species for help. better practice for me anyway, cos wow…photographing puppies? um, yeah. crazy-making.
i really admire the heck out of my friend and colleague, lily, who has been a volunteer puppy raiser for Guide Dogs of America for 7 years. what a labor of love. she gets these guys when they’re 8 weeks old and trains them for 18 months. at that point, she gives them back to GDA for more advanced training, and the same day, gets her new puppy. i couldn’t do it.
this is chandler, her latest. i love his collar. it’s like a bad tie from the 70's :o)
Guide dog for the blind. A young blind woman "sees" her new guide dog for the first time. An emotional moment.
Took this shot the last weekend. Father and Son duo were busy bird watching. The lake had lotsa birds.
I gotta run. will catch up with your all stream.
Feel free to steal this. it's not mine and I honestly don't remember where I found it but it came in handy the last couple nights when shooting the moon and perhaps it can help you too.
Tours featuring "40s" were regular events in 1984 and "rare" 40082 was arranged for the DAA North West Rambler on March 10th 1984. 40082 was obviously in poor health and expired at Park after a short run from Stockport

Good day in our parish church of St. Stephan!
The patron saint of our church, which probably is one of the oldest and most beautiful buildings of Amstetten, leads us - as in all Stephan parishes - to Passau. Beginning of the 11th Century founded the bishops of Passau here a large parish, from which in the course of history many of the surrounding parishes emerged.
From the architectural history of the Gothic church (Staffelkirche - multi-aisled church building) we know:
To a Romanesque building which in its dimensions comprised about today's nave and possessed a smaller choir in the 14th Century initially a chapel has been added. It was already at that time consecrated to Our Lady of Sorrows and is now the front part of the northern aisle, where the Marian altar stands. The next phase of construction was the newbuilding of the nave together with the north aisle. The tower whose lower part certainly stems from the predecessor building, since then stood freely added to the west side of the church. In the south it was only built up as the aisle was raised. Around 1450 it was decided to build up the tower in the north, too - so today's baptistery was built. The reconstruction of the church was completed by a late Gothic choir, dominating the nave by a few meters. To the new choir connects in extension of the southern aisle the sacristy. The tower, which was 1787-89 increased and provided with a Baroque helmet, received in 1882 its present neo-Gothic form. Its height up to the pommel of the Cross is 43 m.
Of the equipment of the church the altars, neo-Gothic carvings are remarkable. The high altar is from the South Tyrolean artist Franz Schmalzl from Ortisei, who designed it in 1898 and set it up in 1901: In the middle shrine one sees the martyrdom of St. Stephen, left the statues of Sts. Peter, Lawrence and above John the Baptist, right Sts. Florian, Paul and John the Evangelist above it . Above the shrine the Sts. Joachim (left) and Anna (right) are to see between them is the late Gothic statue of St. Maria, at the very top the Holy Josef is shown. The arrangement of the figures of saints coincides with that of the previous Baroque altar that the from Innsbruck stemming, here domiciled carpenter Thomas Obererlacher had built in 1679. From this altar have been preserved the statues of Sts. Peter, Paul and Joseph (at the columns in the nave), and of St. Lawrence (under the choir).
The side altars 1889 Josef Kepplinger from Ottenheim has designed and realized: In May 1889, the Lady altar in the left aisle with the statue of St. Mary of Lourdes, flanked by angels, including the figures of Sts. John of Nepomuk (left) and Rocco (right), at the very top a statue of Christ, could be consecrated. At the right side altar, who received its consecration in February 1891, the Sacred Heart of Jesus statue is at the center, the side figures represent the Sts. Christopher and Thomas (left ) and Sebastian and Nicholas (right).
The people's altar (Volksaltar) is from the former high altar of the parish church of St. Georgen i. d. Klaus, manufactured in 1886 by Josef Unterberger from Gmunden .
The wood sculpture "Christ on the Column of flagellation" in a niche in the pointed arch next to the right side altar dates from the 17th Century.
In remarkable images has got our Church: The "Assumption of St. Nicholas" by Bartolomeo Altomonte, signed in 1732 (in the sanctuary left), the "Fourteen Holy Helpers", by Johann Georg Staindorffer, painted in 1680, and the "Trinity picture" from the Baroque high altar (in the sanctuary right). The Stations of the Cross, the painter of Seitenstetten Anton August Stern has painted in the years 1869-1872, which it has, like the signature on the 14th Station proves, modeled after the Führich Stations of the Cross in St. John Nepomuk Church in Vienna.
Since the exterior renovation in 1975, the beautiful grave stones, until then exposed outdoors to any kind of weather conditions, in the Church and in the baptistery have been set up. Among them is also that of Andreas of Lappitz www.wehrbauten.at/noe/niederoesterreich.html?/noe/leiben/....
The old organ is the work of Ottenheimer master Leopold Breinbauer, who in 1898 built it into the baroque housing of the 1763 by Lorenz Franz Richter of Freistadt constructed old organ. It has 2 manuals, 20 stops and 1387 pipes. Since 2011 the church has a new virtual organ whose console is set up in the sanctuary. It has 4 manuals and can the organs of Haverhill (GB), Zwolle (NL) and Caen (F) reproduce.
Finally, taking a look at the baptistery next to the tower is worthwhile. The 12-sided baptismal font dates from the 15th century. The neo-gothic attachment, designed by the same master as the side altars, houses a representation of the Holy Trinity. The half reliefs show biblical scenes of salvation from the water. On the inside of the attachment wings Ludwig Hase from Linz has painted two biblical baptisms. The frescoes vestiges on the walls and ceiling, set around 1480, indicate representations of the Gospels symbols, the Last Judgement, the souls in purgatory and parts of the Ursula Legend. The mural paintings are pointing to the original use as a mortuary chapel. The two modern concrete glass windows, created by Albert Birkle 1964, show the following motives: the sevenfold Outpourring of the Holy Spirit on the Church (in the North) and the lamb on the book with the seven seals (in the west).
In a canopy at the western exterior of the church the fresco "The Last Judgment" can be seen (around 1480).
Of the 4 bells with the notes C, E, G and A (Salve regina) dates the oldest one from 1728, cast by Silvius Creuz in Linz. The other three were produced in St. Florian 1957.

My fine art photography graces my physics books!
Regarding the award-winning physicist Dr. Elliot McGucken at Princeton University, the late John Archibald Wheeler stated, "More intellectual curiosity, versatility and yen for physics than Elliot McGucken's I have never seen in any senior or graduate student. . . Originality, powerful motivation, and a can-do spirit make me think that McGucken is a top bet."
Dr. E would go on to heal the blind with his NSF-funded, award-winning Ph.D. dissertation which also laid down the foundations of Light Time Dimension Theory. Over the years, LTD Theory added foundational *physical* postulates, principles, and equations en route to becoming numerous books, with this one forming the simple, illustrated introduction.

The great thing about the beach is that it presents an entirely different universe from season to season, from day to day, from hour to hour, from second to second, with the ever changing wind, tides, clouds, and sun. A split second with tumbling surf and a sinking sun can make a vast different, resulting in entirely different photographs.
