Today we're going to explore how different papers effect the look of cyanotype prints and even more importantly how they effect toning ... #etbtsy
Continued on my blog: Cyanotypes VIII: Toning Different Papers
Chautauqua Belle Steamboat, an original hand-made 5" x 7" cyanotype print on Shizen Design textured surface cold press recycled watercolor paper.
Photographed with a 35mm Nikon FE camera on Ilford FP4 black and white negative film. Chemically printed on a hand-coated watercolor paper (Shizen Design Professional Grade Cold Press 100% Recycled) using the cyanotype process invented in 1842.
1. Pop top opener–(part of the metal lid opens for sips but doesn't end up in the drink) invented by American engineer Ermal Fraze
2. Aluminum can–invented by Coloradan engineer Bill Coors of the Coors Beer family
3. Aluminum production–invented by American student/entrepreneur Charles Martin Hall and French professor Paul Héroult at Oberlin College in Ohio, who in 1886 invented the modern electrolytic process of aluminum extraction from its ore called the Hall-Héroult process, which is still used.
4. Carbonated soda pop–carbonation was first observed to be transmittable by Britain's Joseph Priestley in 1767, mass produced as carbonated water by Switzerland's Jacob Schwepp of the Schwepp Company, and finally the first flavorful carbonated soda pop was created by America's Charles Hires and his root beer in 1876.
5. Pepsi-cola–created by North Carolinian pharmacist Caleb Bradham

I invent my world for not to despair of the world
#gouache #painting #art #abstractart #contemporaryart
Built for Brickworld 2013 as part of the "Wonka" collaborative. These builds represent all the chocolaty goodness of Mr. Willy Wonka's factory, the demise of undeserving children, and the simple heroics of Charlie Bucket. Welcome to the Inventing Room!
"Charlie Bucket stared around the gigantic room in which he now found himself. The place was like a witch's kitchen! All about him black metal pots were boiling and bubbling on huge stoves, and kettles were hissing and pans were sizzling, and strange iron machines were clanking and spluttering, and there were pipes running all over the ceiling and walls, and the whole place was filled with smoke and steam and delicious rich smells."
Tour the factory and see these other amazing bignettes that were part of the collaborative:

Saturday Self Challenge
Since the next challenge will be on the Saturday before Christmas, the topic will be anything related to Christmas. Since it is also the Winter Solstice, if you don't celebrate Christmas, you may choose any topic relating to winter.
You may process any way you choose, your photo can be in colour or black and white.
I’d decided to keep it simple this week, but as usual I ended up making it a bit more difficult for myself. Fortunately we had some snow overnight Saturday 14th to Sunday 15th, so I was able to get the background close up shot of some snow on the moors, this gave me a winter photo. I decided it looked a bit sad on its own, so I had the idea to combine it with something a little more colourful, here’s where my Poinsettia (which is still alive after two weeks) came in. I then had to combine the two and get rid of all the stuff surrounding the flower. For this I used an iPad app called Juxtaposer, (which is great but it removes the EXIF data) The process is quite simple but involves a lot of pencil work erasing the background of the top image, this being the poinsettia. Anyway an hour later after lots of frantic erasing and redrawing I had achieved the desired effect. A few tweaks here and there, a frame and text added and here we have the end result.
Here is a link which explains the Roman festival of Saturnalia and its links to Christmas. With thanks to the History Today web site.
Did The Romans Invent Christmas ?
However you celebrate this time of year, season’s greetings to all my friends in the SSC group and on Flickr.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
Bravo au papy qui a créé ce magnifique engin pour amuser ses petits-enfants .....Et ils s´amusent .....
invented a Game/Anime-Character for Ponyo's series...unfortunately I was too late, but I like this outfit, so here she is anyway...
(if anyone still wants to pile up send me a flickrmail, I'll give you a link)
I recently bought 3 photos on ebay, allegedly the legacy of a former Luftwaffe pilot living in Ulm (it may be a story invented for the auction, but I have no evidence to dispute it).
I'm trying to decipher what plane from which unit might be in these photos. I already know that the plane you see is a Focke-Wulf Fw 58, possibly with the "CV+HE" (or maybe "CV+HF", which was crashed in 1942 near Pardubice in Czechoslovakia) identification number. These photos are signed as taken over Poznań - one of them is certainly over the Łazarz district where I live.
The photos itself are ~5.5x5.5 cm and were probably made using the contact method from a 6x6 negative.
This is Second City, a city that invented skyscrapers that touch the sky and glimmer in gold. Amid the city's celebration of modernity is this mural of depression. This poorly-clad man seems to be looking up to those majestic skyscrapers that have sprouted up everywhere on fertile Chicago ground. Come to think of it, whatever happened to the people of the Ojibwe, Odawa, Potawatomi, Miami, Ho-Chunk, Menominee, Sac, Fox, Kickapoo, and Illinois Nations of Chicago? I forgot they were here. (Did I leave out any Indian nation?)
On a much lighter note, there is something tiny in this grand scene that hits me with inappropriate humor. Look at the "Tow Zone" sign right next to the mural's big toe zone. (Enlarge the photo to see the details of what I'm talking about.) Tow and toe: I have to take a photo of that the next time I visit, without getting towed.

Mural title: Native American Lost in Chicago... Dreamin'
Artists: French duo Ella and Pitr
THEME : INVENT AND ILLUSTRATE A FAIRYTALES OR A STORY
Like Ulysse, Teddy wants to go home, but there is a big storm and it is very dangerous to sail on this wild ocean. Hope he will find his Penelope very soon ............
The scene is home made, of course !! Happy Saturday!

Nearby there was a plaque explaining that Beckman was a professor at Caltech who invented the first commercially successful electronic pH meter, which was very useful in the burgeoning California citrus industry. It made Beckman enough money that there are a bunch of buildings named after him.
You can't see it here, but there was a reflecting pool-style pond to the left of this building that I see is called the "Gene Pool" on the Flickr map, which is amusing.
inventi le mie forme,
lo stile, è quello tuo…
poso per ore davanti a te,
mi dipingi di sole, anche se non c'è…
a un tratto, trovo me
inventi quei colori,
le ombre su di me…
poi chiudo gli occhi sul nome mio,
quel che inventi son sogni, son sempre io…
mi sento, dentro te
poi, mi scopro lì a volare il cielo su di me,
mentre la mia mano cerca te…
arrossisci un po’… ma non vuoi più mandarmi via
inventi, la poesia
inventi, la poesia
inventi quella luce,
ma sono gli occhi miei
mentre ti guardo io non so più,
dove finisco io e cominci tu,
Il sogno, la realtà…
ogni volta io rinasco nei pensieri tuoi,
colorato e folle più che mai
arrossisci un po’… ma non vuoi più mandarmi via
…inventi, la poesia
…inventi, la poesia
renato zero - invenzioni (1974)

Buildings of the old flax factory (from the end of 19-th century) in my hometown. Now here are some shops, various companies and apartments :)
Żyrardów - small town in Central Poland, located in the Mazovia region. It owes its unique atmosphere to the characteristic architecture of an industrial town. The original spatial layout of the community, which grew around a manufacturing plant in the mid-19th century, has been preserved to the present day. The historic center of Żyrardów (mostly buildings from red bricks) is the only industrial architecture complex from the turn of the 20th c. in Europe that has been preserved to modern times in full. The old settlement covers a 76-ha area in the central part of the town. Diversified architectural forms and styles characterize the city, which has resulted from the multi-cultural character of Żyrardów. The flax trade gave the town its origins. A plant manufacturing flax that was one of the largest and modern factories in Europe was established there in 1829. Karol Dittrich and Karol Hielle, two industrialists from Germany, founded the plant. The town derives its name from the first technical director of the plant, Philip de Girard who, among others, invented a mechanical flax-spinning machine.

Budynki dawnej fabryki. Obecnie są tu sklepy, siedziby różnych firm oraz część mieszkalna (lofty) :)
Żyrardów leży w centrum Polski, na Mazowszu. Swój niepowtarzalny klimat zawdzięcza charakterystycznej architekturze miasta zaprojektowanej w połowie XIX stulecia. Zabytkowe centrum Żyrardowa jest jedynym w Europie zachowanym w całości zespołem urbanistyczno-architektonicznym miasta przemysłowego przełomu XIX i XX wieku. Osada fabryczna obejmuje centralną część miasta o powierzchni ok. 76 ha. Charakteryzuje ją różnorodność form architektonicznych i stylów, co wynika ze zróżnicowania narodowościowego mieszkańców Żyrardowa. Początek miastu dała fabryka lniarska, która powstała na terenie dzisiejszego Żyrardowa w 1829 roku. Była to jedna z największych i najnowocześniejszych fabryk ówczesnej Europy. Została założona przez dwóch przemysłowców z Niemiec: Karola Dittricha i Karola Hielle. Żyrardów zawdzięcza swą nazwę pierwszemu dyrektorowi technicznemu fabryki, Philipowi de Girard. Był on m.in. wynalazcą maszyny do mechanicznego przędzenia lnu.
Poohsticks Bridge, made famous by A.A.Milne, in the Ashdown Forest, Sussex.
Poohsticks was invented by English author A.A. Milne for his son Christopher Robin Milne. The game first came to prominence upon Milne's description in his 1928 book The House at Pooh Corner,as well as the 1983 Disney animated featurette Winnie the Pooh and a Day for Eeyore. As first depicted, protagonist Pooh accidentally drops a pine cone into a river from a bridge and, after observing how it appeared on the other side of the bridge, devises the rules for Poohsticks, later playing the game with the other characters, Christopher Robin, Tigger, and Eeyore.
Milne first played the game at a bridge located in Ashdown Forest, close to the village of Upper Hartfield, East Sussex, England. Built in 1907 and originally called Posingford Bridge, it is considered to be the bridge on which Milne and his son first played the game. However, it is uncertain whether the game was first played at the bridge and then written into the story, or vice versa. The bridge maintained the public's interest and a campaign to rebuild it in the late seventies was considered important enough to feature on the BBC Nine O'Clock News. The bridge was subsequently reopened by Christopher Robin Milne and officially renamed as Poohsticks Bridge. (wikipedia)
Invented in 1909 to provide some protection at grade crossings, the wig wag signal, nicknamed for its pendulum like motion, are few and far between today. When operating, the red light in the center of the circle is illuminated and it moves back and forth within the diamond shape. My trip up north to Devils Lake area last weekend included the hope of catching a shot of a train going through here however due to mechanical problems on the railroad, that train never came around. At least not while I was there. But it was still worth it to get a shot of these signals since they will eventually be replaced with more modern ones in the near future. I have yet to see these in person when activated. Maybe I will have another chance before its too late.

The Maxim gun was the first self-powered machine gun, invented by the American-born British inventor Sir Hiram Stevens Maxim in 1884. It has been called "the weapon most associated with British imperial conquest".
Maxim established the Maxim Gun Company with financing from Albert Vickers, son of steel entrepreneur Edward Vickers. A blue plaque on the Factory where Maxim invented and produced the gun is to be found in Hatton Garden at the junction with Clerkenwell Road in London.
COMMENTS ARE APPRECIATED!
A lot of times I feel like I'm an accidental detective. This profession was never an ambition of mine. In fact, in college I was convinced that the private investigator had followed the dodo and passenger pigeon into extinction.
But, lo and behold, like the coelacanth, a 19 year career as a private eye swam up out of the depths and bit me in the ass. And I'm fiendishly good at it. In many ways I feel like I was wired internally to do this very thing. Virtually unemployable at anything else. I cannot resist the clues, the puzzle pieces, the thrill of finding the hidden, learning the secrets and haunting the quiet places where I watch and wait.
What I really wanted to do was write, but journalism was never truly in the cards. I spent way more time behind a lens than in front of one.
At times I feel a novel in me fighting to get out. For years that voice has been stifled. A recent addition to my life has me reassessing the road not taken. The voice is back and the words have again begun to flow. It is a gift beyond compare. I can only hope that somehow, some way I can reciprocate is such valuable kind.
Cais
Composição: Milton Nascimento e Ronaldo Bastos
Para quem quer se soltar
Invento o cais
Invento mais que a solidão me dá
Invento lua nova a clarear
Invento o amor
E sei a dor de encontrar
Eu queria ser feliz
Invento o mar
Invento em mim o sonhador
Para quem quer me seguir
Eu quero mais
Tenho o caminho do que sempre quis
E um saveiro pronto pra partir
Invento o cais
E sei a vez de me lançar
Ѧƕᴕɚᶓ - ϔ - Ϣҙӄѧɕ the thinker sat beneath a shade fungus in the nest valley and contemplated the Brood Queen as she continued her ceaseless task of perpetuating the species. Every few moments her ovipositor flung forward and threw, along a precise arc, a glistening pink ootheca into a seething pit of slime, split egg casings and writhing larvae.
A breeze picked up, just strong enough to push one of the flying oothecae a little off course and it landed at the raised edge of the larvae pit. It teetered, as if deciding which way to fall, then toppled away from the safety of the pit and further into the valley, bouncing as it rolled. It came to rest, hard, abrubtly against a rock and split neatly in half (the panicking larva blindly lolloping in the drying dust), and the two halves continued to roll away. And they rolled...
And rolled, and rolled. "Hmm," thought Ѧƕᴕɚᶓ - ϔ - Ϣҙӄѧɕ. She stood a while, smoothed back an antenna, and then began to run down, laughing and whooping, in the direction the egg casings had gone.

Jeu original des 176 emoji dessinés par Shigetaka Kurita
Exposition MOMA - Fondation Louis Vuitton
La collection du Museum of Modern Art (MoMA), à New York, s'est enrichi en 2016 de 176 pièces quelque peu particulières : une collection de carrés de douze pixels de côté. Il s’agit de la première série d’émoticônes (emoji en japonais), créés par le designer Shigetaka Kurita, qui les a conçus entre 1998 et 1999.
A l’époque, M. Kurita travaille pour l’opérateur de téléphonie japonais NTT Docomo, qui développe i-mode, un service Web pour téléphones. Le service ne peut transmettre que de faibles quantités de données, et les écrans des téléphones ne permettent de toute façon l’affichage que d’un faible nombre de caractères. M. Kurita propose alors de créer des images schématisées de petite taille : ce seront les 176 émoticônes originelles.
Le succès est immédiat, et les autres opérateurs japonais copient très rapidement le concept. En dehors de l’archipel, il faudra cependant attendre 2010, et l’arrivée des émoticônes dans le standard Unicode, pour qu’ils connaissent un succès véritablement planétaire.
« Les emoji de Shigetaka Kurita sont de puissantes manifestations de la capacité du design à modeler le comportement humain, explique le musée. Le design d’une chaise dicte notre posture ; de même, le format d’une communication électronique donne une forme particulière à notre voix. Les collections du MoMA sont remplies d’exemples d’innovations en matière de design qui ont radicalement modifié notre monde, du téléphone à l’ordinateur personnel en passant par le signe@. »
