All art is but imitation of nature.-- Seneca (Letters from a Stoic - Letter LXV: On the First Cause)
The universe itself is God and the universal outpouring of its soul. --Chrysippus (Quoted by Cicero in De Natura Deorum)
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats
That famous moment in Australian sporting history when Australia II won the Americas cup.
I've been wanting to build the boat for many years, and although its not int he scale i want to build it in, it was none the less fun to build. It is for a department store in Perth, Western Australia.

Die Edixa II hieß ursprünglich Edina II, genauso wie die Edixa I vorher Edina hieß. Weil aber Kodak der Meinung war, dass Edina zu sehr an Retina erinnert, musste Wirgin die Kameras umbenennen.
Der Hauptunterschied zur Edixa I war der Splitbild-Entfernungsmesser wie bei der Agfa Karat 36, bei dem die ganze untere Sucherhälfte verschoben wird. Das war aufwendiger als das Mischbild-System, das später bei fast allen Rangefinder-Kameras eingesetzt wurde. Der Entfernungsmesser der Edixa II war gekoppelt, das Fenster jedoch jedoch vom Sucher getrennt.
Ein Hauptmerkmal der meisten Sucher-Edixas war die sehr robust wirkende Objektivplatte, erkennbar an den seitlichen Streben. Die Verschlusszeiten konnten durch ein kleines Fenster abgelesen werden. Die abgebildete Version war offensichtlich für den Export bestimmt, die Entfernungsskala zeigt die Angaben in feet.
Der Pronto-Verschluss ging von 1/25 bis 1/200 Sek. und das Isconar 2,8/43 mm war ein Dreilinser. Man findet die Edixa auch mit einem Cassar, das die selben Daten aufweist.
Der Produktionszeitraum war 1953 bis 1957, der Preis 115,- DM.
Die „Wirgin Kamerawerke“ wurden 1924 von den jüdischen Brüdern Wirgin in Wiesbaden gegründet und existierten bis 1971. 1938 musste das Werk unter dem Druck der Nazis an ADOX verkauft werden, 1945 wurde es an die rechtmäßigen Besitzer zurückgegeben.

Just posted this to accompany 'Zippy's Revenge's recently posted picture. I won't go into detail, as he gives the run down on his stream. This was NHH 358W which was purchased by Wacton Coach sales, tested by us at RBW, then re-sold to RML Travel of Cotes Heath. The mechanically 'mint' bus served the last mentioned for some time as an office and store room before I believe moving on again. The UK 'off side' centre door and perimeter seating were too much to cost effectively content with when considering PSV re-use. Seldom have I ever seen a twenty year old working bus in such good condition.
The second version of the Ophiophagus Hannah variant Snakehead Psychological Warfare Mecha, the Snakehead Ver. II (with a thankfully shorter name) underwent major changes, the most prominent of which were arms.
Piloted mostly by the Serpente Sapien subspecies, the Snakehead Ver. II is a common sight in reconnaissance mission. It was so popular, in fact, that a civilian frame was released, complete with headlights, turn signals, and brake lights.

BRDM II reconaissance vehicle of the National Volksarmee (NVA) of the DDR. The vehicle is about to take part in the Oktober Parade of 1987.
Taken with a Pentax ME Super SLR with 50mm lens.
Quadrata II was designed, cut, and cast as metal letterpress type by Paul Hayden Duensing for his Private Press and Typefoundry. This sample is from 25: A Quarter-century of Triumphs and Disasters in the Microcosm of the Private Press & Typefoundry of Paul Hayden Duensing (1976).
In American Proprietary Typefaces (1998), Duensing tells the backstory of the typeface:
“Next was 12-point Quadrata I, which proved to be a very dull and homely design. Although an artistic disappointment, it was a learning experience and was more successful when redesigned as Quadrata II with a rough edge which simulated a pen drawn over a very rough handmade paper. A few characters were also cut in 36-point. An anachronistic lowercase has been designed, but I have an uneasy conscience about adding it to the font when I am already uneasy about having added arabic numbers.
“[…] Quadrata […] had the distinction several years ago of being pirated by more than one rub-down lettering supplier.”
One of those unnamed rub-down lettering suppliers was Formatt, who offered the design under the name Stonehenge. It was offered by Solotype under the name Diderot. There are also several unofficial digital adaptations.

View from the street of the Hassan II Mosque.
Casablanca, Morocco
The Hassan II Mosque (Arabic: مسجد الحسن الثاني, French: Grande Mosquée Hassan II) is a mosque in Casablanca, Morocco. It is the second largest functioning mosque in Africa and is the 7th largest in the world. Its minaret is the world's second tallest minaret at 210 metres (689 ft). Completed in 1993, it was designed by Michel Pinseau under the guidance of King Hassan II and built by Moroccan artisans from all over the kingdom. The minaret is 60 stories high topped by a laser, the light from which is directed towards Mecca. The mosque stands on a promontory looking out to the Atlantic Ocean; worshippers can pray over the sea but there is no glass floor looking into the sea. The walls are of hand-crafted marble and the roof is retractable. A maximum of 105,000 worshippers can gather together for prayer: 25,000 inside the mosque hall and another 80,000 on the mosque's outside ground.—from Wikipedia
