This is She's history goes back to Warped Tour 2009, when Alana Grace's earlier solo project was playing the same stages as After Midnight Project, which included members Ryan Folden -drums- and Christian Paul Meadows -guitar-. Grace found herself in need of a full band in 2011 and enlisted Folden and Meadows following the dissolution of After Midnight Project.
Following a few months of writing and recording, This Is She are ready to present their music to the world at large with the Nobody Is Ok EP, which was recorded in a few months in 2011 North Hollywood, CA, in the band's own studio.
This Is She relish in that universal "dark side," both in the themes of Grace's lyrics and in their musical style, which is a blend of blissful pop, heavily-distorted rock music, and the bombast of modern electronic dance music, all punctuated by Grace's tortured, emotive, and always-soaring vocals. Befitting of her own namesake, her lyrics and melodies are delivered with an air of simple elegance; the very definition of grace. Fuzzy bass lines, distorted guitars, propulsive drumming and electronic textures swirl around and engulf her voice. It's positively disorienting, but Grace keeps the songs grounded with her voice, acting like a glimmer of humanity and hope amongst a decaying wasteland of explosive noise. Some songs incorporate schizophrenic vocal samples that are entirely haunting before morphing into intense, mechanized dubstep-inspired breakdowns that sound like a Terminator's interpretation of rock music.
This is loud music; even when it's turned down, you're unable to block it out. It could never, ever be played as background music. Like Sleigh Bells or Public Enemy, the beats of these songs lock into place and explode like bombs while guitars come crashing down around you like high-rise buildings in a Michael Bay blockbuster. Call it rock; call it dubstep; call it action-packed blockbuster music; call it whatever you want, but don't think for one second that you will be able to ignore it. Whether you like it or not, This Is She will have your attention.

The Legend of Ronzig (Chapter 1)
Very long ago, long before the age of science, long before the Ice Age even, there was an age which humans have pushed from their memory. This was the age of magic, when sorcerers and wizards fought great battles in search of an outcome to the conflict between good and evil. Sorcerers sought to arm themselves with the powers of evil in order to gain control of the world and wizards sought to use the powers of good to defeat these sorcerers and keep the world free.
As the world explored the great secrets of science, foolish people decided that magic could not exist in this world because it was not scientific. Only a few of the great wizards of the past understood how very wrong this line of thinking was, for magic, more than any other discipline was a precise, scientific branch of learning. The problem was amplified by the fact that it took hundreds of years of dedicated study for a novice to even begin to master this craft. Only the brightest students reached the level of learning necessary to overcome death and complete their studies. The reason that the Gods designed the science of magic to be so difficult to master is quite simple really. If more than a few were allowed to master the powers of magic, the conflict between the two branches would threaten to rip apart the very fabric of time and space. There was another limiting factor involved, for each master magician could only take his first born son as an apprentice and there was no other way to learn the secrets of magic except by apprenticeship to a master.
Now Ronzig was the first born son of Ronik, the most powerful wizard of that time and as first born, it was his destiny to become Ronik’s apprentice. However, thirteen minutes after Ronzig was born, he was followed into this world by his twin brother Ronzak. As the twins reached the age of apprenticeship, Ronzig began his studies with his father and Ronzak was left to seek other, less challenging disciplines.
As is often the case with siblings, the younger brother was more intelligent than his older brother, but was lacking in the elder brother’s wisdom. Ronzak could not tolerate being second to his less intelligent brother and he left the family home to roam the world.
Ronik’s arch rival, Sonod the Sorcerer was quick to recognize an opportunity to gain the upper hand over Ronik. Sonod had no sons, so he was free to take any apprentice he chose, and he chose Ronzak who already carried the magic gene in his body. This set into motion, the events which led to the fiercest battle of magic which the world has ever known, The Battle of the Twins.
By the time the twin brothers had reached the age of 313, they had far surpassed the knowledge and skills of their mentors. They were the two most powerful magicians ever to walk the face of the Earth.
Ronzig the Wizard and Ronzak the Sorcerer were destined to clash, for one had embraced the powers of the Gods and the other had embraced the powers of the demons.
The legend of this battle is another story for another time. It is enough for the purpose of this tale to relate the fact that the conflagration lasted over 500 years and so disrupted the balance of the universe that it triggered an ice age on the planet Earth.
Ronzig was near defeat as the tide of battle had swung to favour Ronzak, but in his wisdom, he conjured up a box with the last of his powers. This was no ordinary box, for it was set to capture all dark magic. Its workings followed the principles of a black hole. The more Ronzak used his powers to fight the containing box, the stronger the box became, until it had drained Ronzak of all of his magic.
Unwilling to destroy his twin brother, Ronzig chose to lock Ronzak’s magic into the box. Ronzak laughs and says he will pick the lock and retrieve his magic. Ronzig knows that his brother can pick any lock, so he conjures up a combination lock, into which he secures the magic. Ronzak laughs and says he will have no trouble devising the combination. Once he has his magic restored, he will meet Ronzig in a final conflict. As Ronzig walks away, he calls to his brother, telling him that the lock is no ordinary one. It has been designed to set its own combination to the number of characters determined by Ronzig. The final genius of the container is that the number of characters in the combination is set to infinity. The lock will never finish generating its combination and cannot be opened unless the complete combination is entered.
And this was the final outcome of a millennium long battle between the two branches of magic. The power of dark magic was defeated and locked away for all eternity, but without the force of dark magic to counter; there was no longer any need for Ronzig’s great magic. Since people no longer were witness to the powers of magic being practiced, they soon forgot that magic was very real and very powerful and they began to believe that the legends of sorcerers and wizards were only myths.
Although Ronzag no longer has his magic powers he is still a very strong force in the world. He has changed his name to BILL and he guards the GATES of Hell.
Ronzig, the last of the great wizards, uses his magic in less dramatic ways than he did in the old days. Now Ronzig the Wizard conjures up amazing digital photoArt creations with his magic mouse.

Segara Anak is a crater lake contained within Mount Rinjani on the island of Lombok in Indonesia. The name Segara Anak means child of the sea given to the blue colour of the lake reminiscent of the sea. The lake is heated, so its temperature is 20-22°C, about 5-7°C above the expected temperature for a lake in that altitude. At the west end of the lake is the volcanic cone Gunung Baru, giving to the lake a crescent shape. Gas bubbles escape from the lake floor. The lake pH is 7-8

The Devil's Punch Bowl is a large natural amphitheatre and beauty spot near Hindhead, Surrey, in England, and is the source of many stories about the area. The old London to Portsmouth road (the A3) runs along one of its higher contours. The land is now owned and maintained by the National Trust as part of the "Hindhead Commons & The Devil's Punch Bowl Café" property. Hindhead Youth Hostel is located inside the bowl. It was once called Highcombe, after the Celtic term combe, meaning forested valley. The lower part of the bowl is still named Highcombe Bottom. Above the London to Portsmouth road lies Gibbet Hill, Hindhead.
However, local legend has a much more colourful theory as to its creation. According to one story, during the Middle Ages the Devil became so irritated by all the churches being built in Sussex that he decided to dig a channel from the English Channel, through the South Downs, and flood the area. As he began digging, he threw up huge lumps of earth, each of which became a local landmark — such as Chanctonbury Ring, Cissbury Ring, Mount Caburn and Rackham Hill. He got as far as the village of Poynings (an area known as the Devil's Dyke) when he was disturbed by a cock crowing (one version of the story claims that it was the prayers of St Dunstan that made all the local cocks crow earlier than usual). Assuming that dawn was about to break, he leapt into Surrey, creating the Devil's Punch Bowl where he landed.
Another story goes that, in his spare time, he hurled lumps of earth at the god Thor to annoy him. The hollow he scooped the earth out of became the Punchbowl. The local village of Thursley means Thor's place. Such stories are considered to be of Celtic, Norse, and Saxon origin.
It is these stories, the beauty of the area and the diversity of nature it attracts that has gained the Devil's Punch Bowl the title of a Site of Special Scientific Interest. This title has recently helped save the Devil's Punch Bowl from redevelopment of the A3 which is needed to relieve traffic congestion in the area, this section of the A3 being only single-carriageway. The National Trust have co-operated with developers who have designed a twin bore tunnel running underneath the surrounding area of the Devil's Punch Bowl. The tunnel will not only preserve the area from the road widening originally proposed but, once complete, will remove the heavy traffic congestion which affects this section of the A3 in peak hours, in turn bringing considerable environmental benefits and tranquillity to this internationally valued area.

As is made very clear on the tender frames, 140C231 a former Chemin de fer de l'État, and subsequently Société Nationale des Chemins de fer Français (SNCF) engine was built by North British Locomotive Company of Glasgow in 1916.
The engine is preserved by AJECTA who organised a steam special to Troyes from Gare de l'Est in Paris running via Melun, Montereau and Flamboin. The engine was taking water at Flamboin-Gouaix when I took this shot.

Cindy Sherman is an American photographer and film director, best known for her conceptual portraits. Through a number of different series of works, Sherman has raised challenging and important questions about the role and representation of women in society. She is quite notoriously a feminist which is pushed through into her work. She began her career painting but soon became frustrated with how she couldn’t convey her own ideas through the media used "I was meticulously copying other art and then I realized I could just use a camera and put my time into an idea instead." From then on she concentrated on photography.
Her most celebrated collection of work is The Untitled Film Stills series consisting of 69 photographs of herself posing as different women in a series of stereotypical female roles. For example, a librarian, housewife or school girl. She began the work in 1977 when she was 23 years old. Importantly, her work encourages self-reflection. As Sherman argues, “I’m trying to make other people recognize something of themselves rather than me.”
All the photos express Hollywoods mistreatment of women in film noir and b-movies, women always take the second role to man who always have the dominance and power which seems like quite a dated value system now. In the photos it’s showing women IN the roles not trying to break them but on the faces of each ‘victimised’ women it’s always sadness and she is always looking into the distance. Sherman becomes unrecognisable in each photo, not only when comparing two of her photos together but also if i was to pass her on the street i wouldn’t recognise her. So we see these are far from self portraits.
The photo i looked at is still #48 from the series often known as The hitchhiker, in the photo we see a woman wearing a long checked skirt, socks and trainers, with one suitcase by her side standing on a highway looking off into the distance. You can’t really tell how old the women is, from the hair she looks old but by the clothing she looks like a young school girl. Either way she seems to be escaping, trying to hitch hick a ride on what seems to be an empty area. I think the ‘emptiness’ of the shot helps covey her feelings and her insignificance, especially as she standing so solitude, alone compared to the all the space around her. Even identity seems so be lacking, who is this woman? And where could she possibly be going? The fact you can’t see her face creates tension and mystery because you can’t tell what she could be thinking but by body language she seems quite calm and relaxed. I think although it seems like no one’s coming to get her there is a sense of freedom and longing for more. It looks like its been taking at sunset so it’s quite dark which comes across quite sinister. Typically this image is quite different from the rest of the series of film stills because she appears to be breaking a typical female role, it seems she not meant to be where she is and even her cloths aren’t very feminine.
Sherman has addressed her feminist beliefs in an interesting way, not only in this photo but in the whole series. Feminism doesn’t necessarily mean ‘man hating’ as we see with Sherman’s pictures, she never depicts men in a bad way, aesthetically anyway. I do think there is an element and a connotation to men mistreating women and a dominance issue but she’s concentrating more on female empowerment and demonstrating ‘what women should be doing’ rather than creating painfully obvious insults to men for example a photo of a man say hitting a women or telling her what to do. Sherman stated "The work is what it is and hopefully it’s seen as feminist work, or feminist-advised work, but I’m not going to go around espousing theoretical bullshit about feminist stuff." I do think if you’re to ignorant to look beyond the picture and realise how she exploiting female stereotypes, you can naively become attracted to the woman in the photos, defeating the purpose all together but also showing the intolerance of people’s views.
I think the main thing that interests me about Sherman’s work is the story that has been set up, as in the title ‘Untitled Film Stills’ these are meant to be stills from films, so in reality the women in the photo must be moving or about to go somewhere.
The complexity lies behind her use of narrative as well since these film stills are telling us loads in what she is saying about society’s view of the female gender in popular culture. Sherman’s take on narrative in her photos was "The still must tease with the promise of a story the viewer of it itches to be told." I think this is a good way to look at it because i think sometimes the idea of something is more exciting than the reality, by this i mean the mystery of the photo is much more appealing than what could be actually happening.
There is something almost iconic about the image because it seems so epic and thought provoking that it could be seen as quite a pivotal point in the movie if it existed.
She eventually completed the series in 1980. When questioned why she finished the series, she claimed that she ran out of clichés. Still to photographed 69 female clichés depicted from movies is quite a strong statement to make in any case.
Williams is a city in Coconino County, Arizona, west of Flagstaff. It lies on the route of Historic Route 66, Interstate 40, and the Southwest Chief Amtrak train route. It is also the southern terminus of the Grand Canyon Railway, which takes visitors to Grand Canyon Village. There are numerous inns, motels, restaurants and gas stations that cater to the large influx of tourists rather than local residents, especially during the summer and holiday seasons.
This is the third of 4 rather 'odd' collections of slides found in a box at RAF Kinloss MRT but labelled RAF Stafford. They were all taken as part of the search for a missing British Army team on Mt Kinabalu in 1994. Ray Sefton kindly gave up much of his spare time to scan these slides into digital format for uploading. If you recognise a place or a person please add a tag or e-mail brican@talktalk.net with the photo number and details and he will do it for you!
The image above is a 2000 X 1250 pixel scan from an original slide. Anything that is not from an original Kodachrome™ is noted as such, including later digital images and a limited number of scanned prints. The vast majority of Kodachrome™ shots were scanned during the period 2007-2014. As of 2022, there remains thousands of scanned, and unscanned images yet to go.
Early uploads were done in a 1024 X 683 pixel size. Since then, technology and software has improved, so I am beginning to re-upload in the much larger 2000 X 1250 pixel size, with the eventual goal of having only that format.
The images in the various galleries come mostly from my slide collection, gathered over the past 40+ years. They are a combination of my own photographs and others acquired over those years through trading, purchasing, and attending conventions.
This photostream was created in 2017 for the sole purpose of holding my slide collection as an archive, and has had over 10 million image views (to 2022)

REMARKS:
This is a photograph from the 5th annual running of the Meath Spring Half Marathon and 10KM Road Races and Fun Runs which were promoted and hosted by Bohermeen Athletic Club at Bohermeen, Navan, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 13th of March 2016 at 12:00. The half marathon consists of a 11KM and 10KM repeated loop around the roads of Bohermeen and Oristown. The course is a fast fair course with a few small hills. This year the course was 'reversed' which just meant that the traditional course changed to accomodate the large number of participants and the narrow country roads on which both the race participants and race traffic must both share before, during and after the race. Most runners agreed that this made the course much faster as a result. There was almost a total of 1,000 participants in both races.
The other great variable in road racing - the weather - was at its spectacular best. It was as close to perfect running conditions. Little or no breeze, around 10C temperature and clear conditions.
Bohermeen AC is steeped in Irish athletics history since 1927 and it is this experience and exceptional community spirit and volunteering which has made this event today so successful. Having now organised the event for five years running it is certain that the event will continue to grow and expand become one of the mainstays on the Irish athletic club road racing calendar for many years to come.
The race is supported by substantial local sponsorship from businesses in the local area.
Timing and event management was provided by http://www.myrunresults.com/. Their website is here [www.myrunresults.com/] and will contain the results to today's race.
We have photographs from both the start and the finish of the races today - they are all available on Flickr [https://www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157665850980555]. Some photographs of the 10KM are included.

We use the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License for all our photographs here in this photograph set. What does this mean in reality?
The explaination is very simple.
Attribution- anyone using our photographs gives us an appropriate credit for it. This ensures that people aren't taking our photographs and passing them off as their own. This usually just mean putting a link to our photographs somewhere on your website, blog, or Facebook where other people can see it.
ShareAlike – anyone can use these photographs, and make changes if they like, or incorporate them into a bigger project, but they must make those changes available back to the community under the same terms.
Above all what Creative Commons aims to do is to encourage creative sharing. See some examples of Creative Commons photographs on Flickr: www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
One of my oldest flashes. This unit is a pre-digital device, so the trigger voltage is expected to be high. I've never measured it, so I purchased a Wein Safe Sync device to protect my camera. Unfortunately, the combo of that Wein device and this flash did not cooperate with my camera and I was unable to use them together. So this was put into my box of old gear.
Enter the Cactus triggers and I've brought out this flash again as something to use! I'm really happy that I can put this flash to work again.
It's a really basic thyristor-based automatic flash. I would need to do some testing to fully understand the functions as I believe that the slide positions are essentially controls for how much reflected light gets to the thyristor. Thus, in the red setting, the largest amount of light is allowed. This setting is intended to allow the flash to operate properly at a longer distance. The range at which the flash should work in an automatic mode in the red mode is 6 feet to 40 feet, given aperture setting of f2 at the max range. In the blue mode, the thyristor is allowed less light and thus the flash will fire for a longer time to get more reflected light. The automatic mode distance for the blue setting is 3 feet to 20 feet with a given aperture of f4 at the max range. I'm still confused about what happens in the overlap between the two settings and their appropriate distances. Manual setting does not allow any light to the thyristor, so it's always a full discharge. There is a scale on the back of the flash that is set for the ISO and distance to give the appropriate f stop to use on the camera.
Recycle times can be very fast given a close subject, settings, and battery conditions and it can nearly keep up with my K10D when shooting Raw + JPG. Lastly, I've read that these flashes tend to have a slow drain when not in use, so it's always a good idea to remove the batteries when storing them.
Taken with the Pentax K10D camera using the smc P-DA* 16-50mm F2.8 ED/AL (IF) SDM lens. AF540FGZ flash was fired PTTL on the body with a diffuser bounced against the wall. PP with PPL4 to set white balance.
Here's another web page with some specs and commentary on this flash.
This is an image of my bride Melody squared off with videographer Stephan Ruenzel. She was not shooting him but he definitely caught her on camera.
You likely won't be taking photographs even when participating in an interview about your photography. However, when you are interviewing with as experienced and professional a team as the crew for the Doug McConnell show Open Road on NBC Bay Area, things run smoothly, despite barking dogs, fire engine sirens, and etc. which interrupted our conversation a couple of times. Melody and I did not have to do anything but be ourselves and provide some photographs of the Conservatory of Flowers, Filoli, Mono Lake, and Bodie ghost town covered in our chat with Doug McConnell.
After the main interview was completed, Melody and I spent some time where videographer Stephan Ruenzel shot a b-roll video that was used as filler to transition from shot to shot in the final production. Melody and I were asked to do what we would normally do in the park like setting of the Presidio where we were shooting. We walked up and back a path, actually taking photographs along the way. I don't remember doing all the things that made it into the final production, but that was exactly why we were able to relax and let the pros do their jobs.
One way to access the show video published by NBC Bay Area Open Road is to search MELODY AND CHARLIE WAMBEKE OPEN ROAD. You will see the 3:49 minute after a 15 or 30 second commercial.
Tyneham is a ghost village in south Dorset, England, near Lulworth on the Isle of Purbeck. It remains a civil parish. The village is situated near Worbarrow Bay on the Jurassic Coast, and there have been fishing communities associated with the parish since the Iron Age. The village is mentioned in the Domesday Book as Tigeham , meaning "goat enclosure". It is part of the Lulworth Estate.
The village, and 7,500 acres (30 km²) of surrounding heathland and chalk downland around the Purbeck Hills, were commandeered just before Christmas 1943 by the then War Office (now Ministry of Defence) for use as firing ranges for training troops. Approximately 200 people were displaced, leaving a notice on the church door:
This measure was supposed to be temporary for the duration of World War II, but in 1948 the army placed a compulsory purchase order on the land and it has remained in use for military training ever since. Though littered with scrap used as targets, and subject to regular shelling, the land has become a haven for wildlife as it has been free from farming and development. In 1975, after complaints from tourists and locals, the M.O.D. began opening the village and footpaths across the ranges at weekends and throughout August. Many of the village buildings have fallen into disrepair or have been damaged by shelling, and in 1967 the then Ministry of Works pulled down the Elizabethan manor house, though the church remains intact. The church and school house have since been preserved as museums.
In the 1980s the village was used for the filming of Comrades, which tells the story of the Tolpuddle Martyrs. The church had a fibreglass tower and large additional gravestones added and the village's Post Office Row was fronted with fibreglass cottages.
Australia, the ancient continent, is still home to dragons...look out, villagers!
These are not the fire-breathing, flying dragons, fortunately for us.
This is a Gippsland water dragon. Water Dragons are Australia's largest Agamid (Dragon) Lizard. Males can attain a length of up to 100cm, however about 80% of this length is tail. Males show bolder coloration, with red chests and larger heads than females. Color is less distinct in juveniles.
Water dragons are mainly a coastal species occurring inland to the Great Dividing Range, except in NSW where they venture further inland. The Eastern Water Dragon occurs from far north QLD to around Nowra in southern NSW. From Nowra, the Eastern Water Dragon is replaced by the Gippsland Water Dragon. This occurs from Nowra through to eastern VIC reaching inland to the ACT.
The Australian Water Dragon or Eastern Water Dragon, Physignathus lesueurii, is an arboreal agamid species native to Eastern Australia from Victoria north to Queensland, there is also a small population in the South-East coast of the State of South Australia.
Australian water dragons have long powerful limbs and claws for swimming and climbing, and have a prominent nuchal and vertebral crest. (A nuchal crest is a central row of enlarged spikes at the base of the head. These spikes continue down the spine, getting smaller as they reach the base of the tail.)
The Australian Water Dragon is the only species of the genus Physignathus in Australia. The other species, Physignathus cocincinus, lives in South-East Asia.
Water dragons eat a wide variety of insects (aquatic and terrestrial), molluscs, small fish and turtle hatchlings, native fruit, and they will scavenge around picnic areas and urban parks.
Water Dragons are Australia's largest Agamid (Dragon) Lizard. Males can attain a length of up to 100cm, however about 80% of this length is tail. Males show bolder coloration, with red chests and larger heads than females. Color is less distinct in juveniles.
Eastern Water Dragons tend to be olive green to grey above with black or black and white cross-bands along the body. These may be highly visible or very dull. A black band extends horizontally from the eye to the throat. Combinations of red, yellow and aqua can also be seen on the head. Males get a very red underside that gets brighter as the lizards reach maturity. On the other hand, Gippsland Water Dragons tend to be olive green to aqua blue all over with bright or dull black cross-bands. The males have wonderfully colourful throats normally striped with green, yellow and blue. The black stripe from the eye to the throat is absent in Gippsland Water Dragons. The tail of both sub-species is strongly banded.

This is one of the stories I really appreciate - Cici was sitting on a bench in the shade, relaxing. I asked her to shoot and she laughed. She said I probably didn't remember her (I hate that).. She told me she remembered me from Fanime 2024. I shot her way back then, she had a cosplay that included giant folding wings. She said she loved those photos. That made my day. I asked if she had the time/energy for another shoot - she said yes, and we made it happen. What a fun minii-shoot - she told me about her character but my brain was mush by then. All I remember was it had to so do something with energy drinks. Don't get old and senile!
Weizberg Church
The Roman Catholic Weizberg Church is located on a hill in the east of the town of Weiz in Styria. The high altar is dedicated to "Our Lady of Sorrows " .
Architectural History (other pictures are clickable at the end of page!)
Weizberg Church, seen from Oberfladnitz
Weizberg church, high above the city
When the first church on the hill Weizberg was erected is unclear. One suspects the middle of the 11th Century. It is a three-nave Romanesque basilica with a two-storey east tower. It was mid-14th Century (1357 ?) extended by the construction of a choir .
Since there were as windows only hatches under the roof, it was very dark in the church, what was often complained. Various attempts to improve the light conditions in the church by modifications failed and so the dean and archpriest Dr. Franz Leopold Riedlegger (1726-1755) decided to erect a new church. But he died before.
His successor, Dr. Paul Hieronymus Schmutz, thus figures as the builder of the new church. Work began in 1757. The shell construction, built by architect Joseph Hueber, was finished after something more then a year, on 8 December 1758 the picture of grace (a Pietà by the Master of Neustift in the first quarter of the 15th century ) was brought to the new church and the first service has been celebrated.
For the interior design of the one-naved late-Baroque building initially lacked the money. Not until 1769, the sculptor Veit Koniger and the painter Joseph Adam Ritter von Mölk which were also employed in the Tabor Church, could begin their work. On 22 July 1776 consecrated Bishop Joseph Philipp Graf Spaur von Seckau the church.
221 days needed native of Vienna Court painter (Hofmaler) Joseph Adam Knight von Mölk and his colleagues in 1771 for his frescoes. Theme of the five ceiling paintings are the five major Marian feasts of the liturgical year .
From Veit Koniger stems the magnificent high altar, on which the earlier mentioned Pietà is placed.
The 1775 completed pulpit stems from sculptor Jacob Peyer. Of him are also the two side altars. They are dedicated to Saints Anne and Joseph. The large altar pictures are the work of Knight of Mölk .
In a fire in 1792 the church roof and the roofs of the 44 meter high towers were damaged.
Already in the 12th Century, the church on the "Mountain of Heaven" was a popular pilgrimage church. The pilgrimages found, however, during the Reformation a temporary end. Only in the middle of the 17th Century the number of pilgrims increased again. During the reign of Emperor Joseph II, the number of pilgrims fell and never recovered until the present .
Looking into the sanctuary
The organ of the Weizberg church was built in 2001 by the company Mathis Orgelbau (organ building) and it has 31 stops on three manuals and pedal.
Memorial
In May 2011, next to the Weizberg church a memorial was erected to commemorate the systematic murder of the Roma and Sinti during the time of National Socialism. It was designed by artist Walter Kratner of Graz and shows a broken wheel axle of a freight car, which is understood as a symbol of deportation and genocide. Behind there is an orange-colored plate with the words "Porajmos". In early July of the same year by unknown part of a wheel axle of the memorial was overturned. The act was heavily criticized by Kratner and reported to the police.
Weizbergkirche
Die römisch-katholische Weizbergkirche liegt auf einer Anhöhe im Osten der Stadt Weiz in der Steiermark. Der Hochaltar ist der „Schmerzhaften Muttergottes“ geweiht.
Baugeschichte
Weizbergkirche, hoch über der Stadt
Wann die erste Kirche auf dem Weizberg errichtet wurde, ist unklar. Man vermutet die Mitte des 11. Jahrhunderts. Es handelte sich dabei um eine dreischiffige romanische Basilika mit einem zweigeschossigen Ostturm. Sie wurde Mitte des 14. Jahrhunderts (1357?) durch den Zubau eines Chores erweitert.
Da es als Fenster nur Luken unter dem Dach gab, war es in der Kirche sehr dunkel, worüber oft geklagt wurde. Verschiedene Versuche, durch Umbauten die Lichtverhältnisse in der Kirche zu verbessern, scheiterten und so entschloss sich der Dechant und Erzpriester Doktor Franz Leopold Riedlegger (1726–1755), eine neue Kirche errichten zu lassen. Er starb aber vorher.
Sein Nachfolger Doktor Paul Hieronymus Schmutz scheint daher als Bauherr der neuen Kirche auf. 1757 begannen die Arbeiten. Der Rohbau, errichtet unter Baumeister Joseph Hueber, war nach etwas mehr als einem Jahr fertig, am 8. Dezember 1758 brachte man das Gnadenbild (eine Pietà vom Meister von Neustift aus dem ersten Viertel des 15. Jahrhunderts) in die neue Kirche und feierte den ersten Gottesdienst.
Für die Innengestaltung des einschiffigen, spätbarocken Baus fehlte zunächst das Geld. Erst 1769 konnten der Bildhauer Veit Königer und der Maler Joseph Adam Ritter von Mölk, die auch in der Taborkirche beschäftigt waren, diese Arbeiten beginnen. Am 22. Juli 1776 konsekrierte der Bischof Joseph Philipp Graf Spaur von Seckau die Kirche.
221 Tage brauchte der aus Wien stammende Hofmaler Joseph Adam Ritter von Mölk mit seinen Mitarbeitern im Jahr 1771 für seine Fresken. Thema der fünf Deckengemälde sind die fünf großen Marienfeste des Kirchenjahres.
Von Veit Königer stammt der prächtige Hochaltar, auf dem die schon vorher erwähnte Pietà aufgestellt ist.
Die 1775 fertiggestellte Kanzel stammt von dem Bildhauer Jakob Peyer. Von ihm sind auch die beiden Seitenaltäre. Sie sind der Heiligen Anna und dem Heiligen Josef geweiht. Die großen Altarbilder stammen von Ritter von Mölk.
Bei einem Brand im Jahr 1792 wurden das Kirchendach und die Dächer der 44 Meter hohen Türme beschädigt.
Schon im 12. Jahrhundert war die Kirche auf dem „Himmelberg“ eine beliebte Wallfahrtskirche. Die Wallfahrten fanden allerdings während der Reformationszeit ein vorübergehendes Ende. Erst in der Mitte des 17. Jahrhunderts vermehrte sich die Zahl der Wallfahrer wieder. Während der Regierungszeit von Kaiser Joseph II. sank die Zahl der Pilger wieder und erholte sich bis in die Gegenwart nicht mehr.
Blick in den Altarraum
Die Orgel der Weizbergkirche wurde 2001 durch die Firma Mathis Orgelbau errichtet und verfügt über 31 Register auf drei Manualen und Pedal.
Mahnmal
Im Mai 2011 wurde neben der Weizbergkirche ein Mahnmal errichtet um der systematischen Ermordung der Roma und Sinti in der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus zu gedenken. Es wurde vom Grazer Künstler Walter Kratner gestaltet und zeigt eine zerbrochene Radachse eines Güterwaggons, die als Sinnbild für Deportation und Genozid zu verstehen ist. Dahinter befindet sich eine orangefarbene Tafel mit dem Schriftzug „Porajmos“. Anfang Juli desselben Jahres wurde von Unbekannten ein Teil einer Radachse des Mahnmals umgeworfen. Die Tat wurde von Kratner heftig kritisiert und polizeilich angezeigt.

This is a panel that consisted of Rym, Pete, Wyatt, and Alex (not pictured) giving a panel that consisted of them describing the somewhat intricate steps of creating a character in Burning Wheel. It is, like the game itself, a very fun process that allows a limitless amount of creativity to flow.
What was funny about this panel was during the 2nd half of the panel, Rym was seated typing down an outline to assist the guys in doing their panel. However, at various points throughout the panel, Rym would type very funny things on the screen which would result in a lot of laughter from the audience. Here is an example of the aforementioned humor: Pete mentioned that maybe a newly made character was born on a classic tropical island with his family, during which Rym typed "Here on Gilligan's Isle".

This is a photograph from the start of the 36th Michael Manning Memorial "Dunshaughlin 10KM" Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Dunshaughlin, Co. Meath, Ireland on Saturday 20th June 2015 at 19:30. This race is widely acknowledged within the Irish running community as one of the best races in Ireland. While being very well attended and competitive it is also one of the oldest 10KM races in Ireland. The numbers for this race have exceeded expectations year on year for the past number of years. In 2008 a record field of 306 took to the start line but by 2012 this number had more than doubled with 647 runners taking part. The starting numbers in 2013 topped this again at 668. Last year, 2014, the numbers rocketed to a new record of 883. This year 862 finished the race showing that the race continues to attract very substantial crowds. This year, as in previous years, the race attracted runners from not just all of Leinster but from the four corners of Ireland. Who knows but this race could reach 1,000 entrants next year. The work of the organising committee must be commended on making this event possible. The Dunshaughlin 10KM has earned it's place at the top of the pedestal of Irish running through the sheer hard work of Dunshaughlin AC over the years. Road race events do not survive on their own. There must be dedication, hard work and a development vision amongst the committee and the host club. Well done to all.

This is a photograph from the Rathfarnham 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which took place in Rathfarnham, Co. Dublin, Ireland on Sunday 29th September 2013 at 10:00.
This is one of the most popular runs in South County Dublin and is held in support of St. Luke's Cancer Hospital, Rathgar. This year's race attracted over 1,300 participants and the run is open to runners, joggers and walkers. The course is one of the fastest 5ks in the country with a downhill start and finish. This is an excellently organised race with marhsalling at every junction and Garda enforced road closures for the duration of the race.
This is a photograph which is part of a large set of photographs taken at the 1KM and 4KM mark on the course. The entire set of photographs can be found here on our Flickr profile at the following link: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157635984917744/

Overall Race Summary
Participants: There was a record number of participants with over 1,300 people taking to the start line.
Weather: This race was held on a beautiful autumn morning. There was little or no breeze and there was mild temperatures of around 15C for the race.
Course: Overall this course is a flat and fast course. There is a net gain of 15M over the whole course with slightly downhill gradients at the start and towards the finish. The course is completely left-handed which makes for favourable conditions. All being equal the course provides an excellent opportunity for every from elite competitors to joggers to set a fast time for themselves.
The race starts at the easterly side of the N81 Tempelogue Road and Springfield Avenue. The start area is shown here on Google StreetView (goo.gl/maps/kg7FY). The race follows Springfield Avenue along the side of Bushy Park. The race overlaps the final kilometer and the finish as it proceeds to the Rathfarnham Road (Shown here Google Streetview goo.gl/maps/gRrI6). The route heads north on Rathfarnham road as there is a very gentle incline until the junction with the Temleogue Road is reached and runners make a sharp left turn onto the N81 (shown here Google StreetView goo.gl/maps/51S2t).

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

This is a photograph from the 6th annual Longwood Village 10KM and 5KM Road Races and Fun Runs 2015 which were held in Longwood Village, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 18th October 2015 at 11:00. This is the sixth year which Longwood GAA/Village have hosted race events. This year's event was an outstanding success and builds on the fantastic success of last year's race. The overall number of participants, including walkers, was over 440 which is up on last year's final numbers. There was over 220 runners and joggers in the 10KM while there was almost 200 runners, joggers and walkers in the 5KM. The events were organised as fundraisers for both the adult and juvenille teams at Longwood GAA club. The event also provided a fundraising opportunity for the local St. Vincent de Paul charity. Overall the whole day was a great success with the hard work put in by the organising committee ensuring that participants enjoyed their race experience. Both routes were accurately measured, kilometer points clearly marked, junctions well stewarded, and electronic timing provided. The event provided many local runners, joggers, fun runners and walkers with a local event to support whilst at the same time providing runners preparing for events such as the Dublin marathon with an opportunity to race a short, fast, distance in the lead up to marathon day. The GAA club provided excellent stewarding and traffic management all around the course. The race had a professional feel to it and it is sure to grow next year given the very positive feedback from many of the participants today.
This photograph is part of a larger set of photographs taken at the event. There were photographs taken at the start of the races and the finishes of both races in Longwood GAA. The full set is available at this link www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157660017638535
Longwood is a small village in South East Co. Meath and is close to the town of Enfield with access to the M4 Motorway. The weather was almost perfect for road running. A beautiful crisp autumn morning with dry cool conditions. 5KM Course: The 5KM started in Longwood village. Runners then took a left turn in the Village down St. Oliver's Road. This straight section of road brings runners to a left turn onto a very well maintained boreen road for less than one kilometer. The race then emerges and joins with the 10KM at Stoneyford where the runners take a left and then another left before arriving back at the finish line in Longwood GAA club. Overall this is a very fast and flat 5KM with no hills to speak of.
10KM Course: The 10KM event begins in Longwood Village outside Dargan's Pub and proceeds westward out of the village. There are some interesting points along this part of the course. At the 2KM point the runners will run under the double bridges - an aquaduct for the Royal Canal and a bridge carrying the Dublin Sligo Railway line. The race then enters county Kildare just before the 3km and after taking a right turn at the four-cross roads known locally as Lally's Cross it returns to County Meath on top of the River Boyne Bridge (Ashfield Bridge) which forms the county boundary. The race follows a straight road for the next 2KM until runners encounter Blackshade bridge which is the toughest climb on the route. As a point of interest Blackshade bridge brings runners back over the Royal Canal and the Railway line. The race then crosses the River Boyne again at Stoneyford before taking a right which will bring runners on a testing two kilometer stretch with some short hills. The 10KM course then joins with the 5Km course for the final 1.5KM back to Longwood GAA club for the finish.

This is a photograph from the second annual running of the Killyon National School 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held at Hill-of-Down, Clonard, Co. Meath, Ireland at 11:00 on Sunday 21st June 2015. The race is held as a fundraiser for the local primary school. Killyon is actually a parish rather than a town or village. With that the race started and finished at the well known Hill-of-Down where the Royal Canal and Dublin Sligo rail line run parallel and cross under the Kinnegad (Westmeath) to Trim (Meath) road. The 5KM route took in a final KM on the beautiful towpath of the Royal canal and finished outside Moran's Pub beside the Canal. Overall the race was very well organised with excellent stewarding and organisation. There was a great spread of refreshments afterwards and participants and families mingled and chatted beside the canal. The race took place on Father's Day and the Summer solstice making the day with the longest duration of day light. The race attracted very good local support from the surrounding areas with local runners, joggers and walkers in attendance.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the start and finish of the race at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654448993629

This is a photograph from the first round of the Mullingar Road League which was held in Belvedere House and Gardens, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 7th May 2014 at 20:00. The race follows the roads and trails around Belvedere and is a very testing 5KM route. The race is promoted by Mullingar Harriers for the Pat Finnerty Memorial Cup. Competitors need to run 3 races out of the 4 races in May (any order) to be considered in the overall placing in categories at the conclusion of the league. Over 350 people took part in tonight's event. The weather was positively wintry with a very cold wind in the face of runners for the 1KM and the final KM of the race.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
This place is amazing and I have always been very intrigued by it, but I never was able to get a shot I was happy with. Well the big puddle positioned right in front of the building to give me a nice refection made my night lol.
This is Rhy. I'm dressing as my half-elf D&D/writing character for the renfaire this weekend so I decided I needed a plushie of his constant sidekick, his pet mouse.
I couldn't find a crochet pattern for a realistic looking mouse *anywhere* so I made one up as I went along. He's a bit topheavy and flops forward/down (which should be okay since I'll be pinning him to my cloak or tunic at the shoulder), but otherwise I'm really happy with the design!
He's mostly crocheted from acrylic yarn (even gave him little fingers and toes on his paws), I painted the inner ear and nose with acrylic paint, the eyes are beads sewn on, and the whiskers are wire.

A 13th century church is all that remains of the village of Imber, a thriving little community in Wiltshire until the winter of 1943. With the D-Day landings looming, the government needed somewhere to train the American troops for the sort of house-to-house fighting that they expected to encounter in Nazi-occupied Europe. Imber, with its central location in an area with existing high military presence, surrounded by the emptiness of the Salisbury Plains, seemed the perfect place. The villagers were given a month to evacuate, and told they'd be allowed back when the war was over. They never were.
The village opens its doors on a handful of days each year, but the army doesn't make it easy to find it – despite detailed instructions, we still missed the turning. The journey there and visit to the village and church visit was totally surreal; from the troops in full combat gear yomping alongside the track, the empty shell-like houses which now occupy the village, the road blocks and signs warning of 'danger' and 'unexploded military debris', the military vehicle graveyard with rusty tanks silhouetted against the horizon, the sergeant major shouting commands at the young soldiers as they 'play' an adult hide and seek in the village, to the poster in the portaloos stating: “Do not dispose of ammunition or pyrotechnics in the toilet”.
Survivors and relatives of those who were displaced in 1934 can access the churchyard and the graves of their loved ones on 20 days or so each year. I see the memorials as a poignant reminder not just of those who are buried here, but also of all the people who lost their homes, livelihood and history to make way for the army training grounds in readiness for WWII.
This is a photograph from The '5K Paddy Run' Road Race and Fun Run held in Kinnegad, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on St. Patrick's Day March 17th 2014 at 10:00. The race was organised to raise funds for the St. Vincent de Paul Kinnegad branch. The race was very well organised and followed the route of the well known Kinnegad 5KM Road Race which takes place annually every summer in the town. About 130 participants took part in the race and ran, jogged, or walked the 5KM route. Despite the cold morning the weather was perfect for running and everyone involved enjoyed the St. Patrick's Day outing.

This is a fast flat course. The course is right handed. The course starts on the old N4 Sligo Road (goo.gl/maps/JWpnK) and proceeds to quickly turn right onto the Killucan road. There is a downhill stretch at the 1km mark where just after the course takes a right turn onto Boreen Bradach (a well known walking route). The race stays with the boreen, which has a very good road surface, until about 800 meters to go where the race emerges into a housing estate. The final right turn is onto the main street for the finish (goo.gl/maps/es2Up). There was a water station along the route. All kilometers were marked and overall the course was perfectly accurate for 5KM. Refreshments were served in Scanlon's Bar on the main street after the race. Well done to the race organisers who, after today's very successful first attempt, hope to make this race an annual event on St. Patrick's Day.

This is the hi-line town of Kremlin, Montana. I traveled up to the hi-line and photographed Kremlin for a historical website. It was the towns centennial celebration this year, so I was honored to contribute. Kremlin is a quiet little town of around 100 people. I really enjoyed my visit and I hope you enjoy the photos I have taken of this wonderful little town.
Here is a link to the Kremlin, MT website. The creator has done an incredible job documenting the town's history.

Here is a quote from the website:
"Kremlin Montana's history had its earliest beginnings with James J. Hill's building of the Great Northern Railroad from Havre to Cut Bank across the northern part of Choteau County during the winter of 1890-1891."

Glastonbury Tor is a hill in Glastonbury, Somerset, England, which features the roofless St Michael's Tower and forms an iconic part of the local landscape. The site is managed by the National Trust. It has been designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument (No: 196702).
Tor is a local word of Celtic origin meaning "rock outcropping" or "hill". The Tor has a striking location in the middle of the Summerland Meadows, part of the Somerset Levels. The plain is actually reclaimed fenland out of which the Tor once rose as an island but now, with the surrounding flats, is a peninsula washed on three sides by the River Brue. The remains of Glastonbury Lake Village nearby were identified in 1892, showing that there was an Iron Age settlement about 300–200 BC on what was an easily defended island in the fens. Earthworks and Roman remains prove later occupation. The spot seems to have been called Ynys yr Afalon (meaning "The Isle of Avalon") by the Britons and is believed by some to be the Avalon of Arthurian legend.
A model of Glastonbury Tor was incorporated into the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. As the athletes entered the stadium, their flags were displayed on the terraces of the model.
