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.

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs

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.

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.

Coventry's ancient guildhall is considered the finest in the country and the grandest of the city's surviving medieval secular buildings, still in use for civic functions to this day. Most of the complex dates back to the 14th and 15th centuries and features a great hall as its major room with other chambers around the adjoining courtyard. The complex is entered from Bayley Lane through a vaulted gateway arch standing immediately south of the ruins of St Michael's cathedral.

 

The great hall is the showpiece here and is remarkable for its impressive interior beneath a richly carved timber roof, restored to the original 15th century design following bomb damage during the Coventry Blitz in 1940; the structural woodwork appears to have been entirely renewed though many of the carved bosses and seated angel figures appear to have survived the damage (it isn't clear to what extent these are original or restored owing to their postwar repainting which disguises any blend of old and new).

 

The focal point of the interior is the great window at the northern end which retains its 15th century stained glass depicting nine kings set within simulated niches and appears to have been the work of one of the royal glaziers. Below the window (protected behind glass) is a large tapestry dating back to c1500, another significant medieval survival.

 

St Mary's Guildhall would be a worthy visitor attraction anywhere else but sadly Coventry's council authorities have long neglected its potential, generally only opening to visitors Sun-Thurs but not at weekends in the more tourist friendly months. There is some hope things may change with some more enlightened individuals reviewing the situation. It is currently closed throughout 2020 for renovation and archaeological investigation.

There is a difference between what is live fish, fresh fish and fish that the local eat. Live fish is defined as still alive and swimming, fresh fish is dead but kept in ice. Even though Bali is an island, Balinese typically do not fish due to their superstitious belief that the seas are haunted by evil spirits. Live fish produce is brought in by mostly Javanese and the Fish Market is normally on the beach. As there are little refridgeration, fish tend to spoil fast. So what happens is that the leftover fish are normally steamed and sold to locals in the in-land markets. These steamed fish are steamed over and over again to prevent rotting each day. Fish is also more expensive and therefore reserve for special occasions only. (Ubud Market, Bali)

This is the first in a challenge series. Kristen and I are going to post one photo each day depicting or evoking a feeling or emotion. Today's is a fresh funnel cake — one of my favorite indulgences since I first had one in Hershey, PA in 1988.

ROYAL LIVER BUILDING IS A GRADE I LISTED BUILDING LOCATED IN LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND. IT IS SITED AT THE PIER HEAD AND ALONG WITH THE NEIGHBOURING CUNARD BUILDING AND PORT OF LIVERPOOL BUILDING IS ONE OF LIVERPOOL'S THREE GRACES, WHICH LINE THE CITY'S WATERFRONT.

OPENED IN 1911, THE BUILDING IS THE PURPOSE-BUILT HOME OF THE ROYAL LIVER ASSURANCE GROUP, WHICH HAD BEEN SET UP IN THE CITY IN 1850 TO PROVIDE LOCALS WITH ASSISTANCE RELATED TO LOSING A WAGE-EARNING RELATIVE. ONE OF THE FIRST BUILDINGS IN THE WORLD TO BE BUILT USING REINFORCED CONCRETE, THE ROYAL LIVER BUILDING STANDS AT 90 M (300 FT) TALL AND WAS FORMERLY THE TALLEST STORIED BUILDING IN EUROPE.[1] THE ROYAL LIVER BUILDING IS NOW ONLY THE JOINT-FOURTH TALLEST STRUCTURE IN LIVERPOOL.

TODAY THE ROYAL LIVER BUILDING IS ONE OF THE MOST RECOGNISABLE LANDMARKS IN THE CITY OF LIVERPOOL AND IS HOME TO TWO FABLED LIVER BIRDS THAT WATCH OVER THE CITY AND THE SEA. LEGEND HAS IT THAT WERE THESE TWO BIRDS TO FLY AWAY, THEN THE CITY WOULD CEASE TO EXIST.

 

Rayen Citadel is an adobe castle situated in Kerman Province south-west of the city of Rayen and is considered the biggest earthen structure of Kerman province after Bam Citadel. Rayen displays all the architectural elements of a deserted citadel. Rayen Citadel was inhabited until 150 years ago and, although believed to be between 500 and 1,000 years old, may in fact have foundations from the pre-Islamic Sassanid era. It appears extremely well preserved, considering the numerous natural disasters that have been destroying similar structures nearby.

Rayen Citadel spans 20,000 square meters, remaining a symbol of the residential fortresses during the ancient times. It covers an almost perfect square area and consists of a number of towers on its perimeter. It is surrounded by a 10 meter wall and on its southern side an artificial moat had been dug to add to the Citadel’s security. The Citadel has its main entrance located on its eastern side. After passing through this articulately designed entrance and after passing by a number of side alleys, there are four structures that in all likelihood were reserved for the wealthier inhabitants. Similar to other fortresses, it consists of the public quarter and the aristocratic zone. The essential sectors such as Zoorkhaneh, mosque, and stable can be seen in the Citadel.

According to historical records, during the reign of Yazdgerd III, while Arab attacks resulted in loss of many parts of Kerman and its vicinity, Rayen Citadel remained impenetrable. During the Zandiyeh era, in particular Nader Shah’s reign, Rayen Citadel served as a strategically important base in addition to the living quarters of local rulers Mirza Hossein Khan and his son Mohammad Ali Khan. Following the ascending of Agha Mohammad Khan, Rayen Citadel continued housing Mirza Hossein Khan’s bloodline, many of whom still live in Kerman, if not Rayen itself. Mirza Hossein Khan’s popularity amongst the locals has prompted many to refer to the structure as Mirza Hossein Khan’s Citadel.

The medieval mud-brick city is similar to the Bam Citadel which was destroyed in an earthquake in December 2003. Following the Bam earthquake and in 2004, the Cultural Heritage and Tourism Organization of Iran (ICHTO) announced the introduction of the Citadel as part of its main programs. Since then, the Citadel is gradually changing to a tourism destination.

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.

The Pantheon is a former Roman temple, now a church, in Rome, Italy, on the site of an earlier temple commissioned by Marcus Agrippa during the reign of Augustus (27 BC – 14 AD). The present building was completed by the emperor Hadrian and probably dedicated about 126 AD.

 

The building is circular with a portico of large granite Corinthian columns (eight in the first rank and two groups of four behind) under a pediment. A rectangular vestibule links the porch to the rotunda, which is under a coffered concrete dome, with a central opening (oculus) to the sky. Almost two thousand years after it was built, the Pantheon's dome is still the world's largest unreinforced concrete dome. The height to the oculus and the diameter of the interior circle are the same, 142 feet.

 

It is one of the best-preserved of all Ancient Roman buildings, in large part because it has been in continuous use throughout its history, Since the 7th century, the Pantheon has been used as a church dedicated to "St. Mary and the Martyrs" but informally known as "Santa Maria Rotonda". The square in front of the Pantheon is called Piazza della Rotonda. The Pantheon is a state property, ruled by Italy's Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism, It is visited by over 6 million people annually.

 

Note the military presence.

This is a photograph from the start of the first running of the St. Colman's National School 5KM Road Race and Fun Run/Walk which was held at Mullingar Shamrocks GAA Club, Delvin Road, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Sunday 14th June 2015 at 13:30. The GAA club facilitated a safe start and finish area for the race while the National School was the venue for registration and the refreshments after the race. The race was run in very warm sunny conditions with a temperature of around 20C making it very warm for road racing. Over 400 runners, joggers, walkers and children took part in the event which by any measure makes this first attempt at road race organisation a fantastic success. The refreshments and prize giving was held on the lawns of the national school with participants and their families able to enjoy the beautiful sunny weather.

This is a set of photographs from the start and end of the race until about the 30 minute finish time. The full set is available at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654492095486

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.

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 is a hidden gem of the Sierras. Tucked into a bend in the road up through Kings Canyon, these falls are not nearly as tall as anything in Yosemite but are beautiful just the same.

Here it is! The quintessential Route 66 photo op is at exit 269. You've seen a few of the signs advertising the Jack Rabbit by now, you better go ahead and stop! Retired senator, Glenn Bassett, bought the trading post back in 1967, and used his influence to get exit ramps off of 1-40 right out front. (Really, what else is around?)

 

Back in the heyday of Route 66 travel, silhouetted jack rabbits adorned billboards from Springfield, MO to Joseph City, (about 1,000 miles) courtesy of the original owners. They are almost, but not quite, as ubiquitous as the non-66 Wall Drug billboards.

 

In the Pixar movie "Cars", the fictional town of Radiator Springs features a "Here it is" sign near Lizzie's shop, inspired by the Jackrabbit Trading Post's billboard. (Joseph City, AZ)

The “orchid mantis” is an erect praying mantis, wearing a raspberry-colored dress with folds that look like orchid petals. For this hand-embroidered piece, Richie Lopez started to hand-stitch a dress from images he saw in an old Vogue magazine and then decided to put a bug in it. Another, showing poet Sylvia Plath knelt next to the oven was inspired by the Lana Del Ray lyrics I've been tearing around in my fucking nightgown / 24/7 Sylvia Plath” from the song “hope is a dangerous thing for a woman like me to have.” Explains Lopez, “There’s a subversiveness about embroidery that people don’t really know about. That’s what I was doing here.” Life, death, sexuality and mysticism are subjects that intrigue Lopez and feature prominently in his work. His art also reflect his Latin heritage such as the one of a monstera plant emerging from a man’s torso, part of his “botanical boys” series and another of the “Handsomest drowned man in the world," from a short story by Gabriel García Márquez. “Oftentimes the entire medium is relegated to the domestic but there have been many people that have used embroidery as a way of expressing something that isn’t necessarily what people think embroidery is." That's what Lopez aspires to do. Watch a video interview of Richie Lopez who finds inspiration in dark-themed literature and song for his subversive embroidery mixing fashion and biology

Succession is an exhibition of new works by Gaia, Nanook and Sebastian Moratana using the streets and history of Baltimore as material. Stemming from a practice of producing art in the public sphere, the show explores the social dynamic of the local urban environment. Situated in the heart of downtown, the work investigates the development and surface of the city in its simultaneous state of aspiration and decay.

 

Gaia’s work for Succession exhibits the narrative of Baltimore’s formerly glorious retail corridor - from the evacuation of white flight, to the divestment and subsequent redevelopment of the area.

 

Nanook’s street practice is geographically re-presented in the gallery through a series of objects amd images. The application of illegal street work becomes a vehicle for the exploration of forming a new urban environment derived solely of abandoned spaces. White Coffee Pot on Franklin and Howard Street which overlapped with a row home at Ashland and Castle is an example of these new formations.

 

"Stoops" by Sebastian Moratana , is an installation work that seeks to represent the ebb and flow of urban communities. By integrating a physical part of the street in a gallery setting, the objects encourage the viewer to participate in Baltimore's unique stoop culture by sitting, standing and touching the historically iconic "white marble steps." The stoops are at once past, present and future. They have been salvaged from homes, neighborhoods and communities that have ceased to exist. Like those communities, the steps can be rebuilt, but once removed the original spirit is gone. These will never be made again from the local stone; the area quarry now only produces rubble and dust. Only by honoring the past can we attempt to rebuild the community that was lost.

Hekla is a stratovolcano in the South of Iceland

 

Height of 1,491 metres (4,892 ft). Hekla is one of Iceland's most active volcanoes; over 20 eruptions have occurred in and around the volcano since 874.

During the Middle Ages, Europeans called the volcano the "Gateway to Hell".

 

Hekla is part of a volcanic ridge, 40 kilometres (25 mi) long. The most active part of this ridge, a fissure about 5.5 km (3.4 mi) long named Heklugjá, is considered to be the volcano Hekla proper. Hekla looks rather like an overturned boat, with its keel being a series of craters, two of which are generally the most active.

 

The volcano's frequent large eruptions have covered much of Iceland with tephra and these layers can be used to date eruptions of Iceland's other volcanos. 10% of the tephra created in Iceland in the last thousand years has come from Hekla, amounting to 5 km3. The volcano has produced one of the largest volumes of lava of any in the world in the last millennium, around 8 km3.

The Mary Rose is a carrack-type warship of the English Tudor navy of King Henry VIII. After serving for 33 years in several wars against France, Scotland, and Brittany and after being substantially rebuilt in 1536, she saw her last action on 19 July 1545. While leading the attack on the galleys of a French invasion fleet, she sank in the Solent, the straits north of the Isle of Wight.

 

The wreck of the Mary Rose was rediscovered in 1971. It was raised on 11 October 1982 by the Mary Rose Trust, in one of the most complex and expensive projects in the history of maritime archaeology. The surviving section of the ship and thousands of recovered artefacts are of immeasurable value as a Tudor-era time capsule. The excavation and raising of the Mary Rose was a milestone in the field of maritime archaeology, comparable in complexity and cost only to the raising of the Swedish 17th-century warship Vasa in 1961.

 

The finds include weapons, sailing equipment, naval supplies and a wide array of objects used by the crew. Many of the artefacts are unique to the Mary Rose and have provided insights into topics ranging from naval warfare to the history of musical instruments. Since the mid-1980s, while undergoing conservation, the remains of the hull have been on display at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard. An extensive collection of well-preserved artefacts is on display at the Mary Rose Museum, built to display the remains of the ship and its artefacts alongside each other.

 

The Mary Rose was one of the largest ships in the English navy through more than three decades of intermittent war and was one of the earliest examples of a purpose-built sailing warship. She was armed with new types of heavy guns that could fire through the recently invented gun-ports. After being substantially rebuilt in 1536, she was also one of the earliest ships that could fire a broadside, although the line of battle tactics that employed it had not yet been developed. Several theories have sought to explain the demise of the Mary Rose, based on historical records, knowledge of 16th-century shipbuilding, and modern experiments. The precise cause of her sinking is still unclear, because of conflicting testimonies and a lack of conclusive physical evidence.

  

The Mary Rose Museum is dedicated to the 16th century Tudor navy warship Mary Rose as well as the historical context in which she was active. The museum opened in 1984 and displays artefacts from the ship as well as the ship itself in a dedicated ship hall. Since opening it has been visited by over a million people. In September 2009 the ship hall was closed to allow the start of construction of a new museum that was opened at the end of May 2013. The Mary Rose Museum (2013) was designed by architects Wilkinson Eyre, Perkins+Will and built by construction firm Warings. The construction was challenging because the museum was built over the ship in the dry dock, which is a listed monument. During construction of the museum, conservation of the hull continued inside a sealed "hotbox". In April 2013, the polyethylene glycol sprays were turned off and the process of controlled air drying began. In 2016 the "hotbox" walls were removed and after reopening the ship was on display behind glass. In 2016, the museum was closed for 9 months whilst a £5.4 million development was undertaken that allows visitors to view the ship without being separated from it by a wall of glass.

Santeria is a local religion with its roots in West Africa and spread with the arrival of slaves. Forbidden by the Spanish the slaves found ways of hiding images of their gods (known as orishas) behind those of the Catholic saints. The goddess here is known as as Yemaya, queen of water and the sea and mother of all other orishas. She came to be the equivalent of the Virgen de Regla, whom the Spanish believed to protect sailors.There are some four hundred Afro-Cuban orishas in all.

This is a photograph from the annual Na Fianna AC "Bob Heffernan" 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held in Johnstownbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Tuesday 22nd May 2018 at 20:00. The race is now firmly established on the Leinster road racing calendar with athletes travelling from all over the region to take part. The race has gained a glowing reputation as being one of the fastest 5KM road races in Ireland. It is one of the rare occasions around road racing circles these days where a very small club can organise a very successful large participation race. Today's race had another very large attendance with over 400 participants finishing the race following on from a similar number of finishers last year. Popup Races were the official timing and event management partners of the race.

  

This race commemorates the years of work and volunteering that local man Bob Heffernan gave to Meath, Leinster, and Irish athletics from grass roots upwards and his work with the host club Na Fianna AC. Na Fianna AC are typical of many rural sporting clubs who have a large catchment area which combines rural North Kildare and South Meath. The race, known affectionately by club-members as simply "Bob's race" is a fitting tribute to commemorate his contribution to this sport. Indeed, not many road races are held in the same affection by runners as Bob's Race with runners returning back every year to sample the course and the wonderful atmosphere again.

  

Our family remembers the days 15 years ago when this race was held in the village of Rathmoylan about 10 miles from the current venue. In those days the race was deemed a success if 75 to 100 runners made the start line. What a testimony to the hard work of Na Fianna AC today's race is! The weather was perfect for road racing - hardly any wind and wonderful warm temperatures - with bright hazy sunshine.

 

The race is part of the Popup Races KIA Race Series. The KIA race series is Irelands newest race series, taking in 7 of the top road races in the country and finishing with a brand new finale in Mondello Park in September 2018. It is also part of the annual Meath AAI Road Race League despite the fact that the race is run completely in County Kildare. The current route for the race has stayed the same over the past few years. However previous to that the race was held in Enfield and also Rathmoylan in County Meath. The race starts on the busy Enfield to Endenderry road and this requires a big effort from stewards and marshalls. However, as always, the event was a resounding success with personal bests and great runs from many of the participants. The course is very fast and flat - it is a one loop course which is left-handed in terms of turns. Indeed some parts of the route between 2 and 4 K have been resurfaced recently adding a flat smooth track like surface to this section.

 

The prize giving and refreshments for runners is provided in the Nightclub section of the Hamlet Court Hotel.

Criccieth is a town and community on the Llyn peninsula in the Eifionydd area of Gwynedd in Wales. The town lies 5 miles (8 km) west of Porthmadog, 9 miles (14 km) east of Pwllheli and 17 miles (27 km) south of Caernarfon.

 

The town is a seaside resort, popular with families. Attractions include the ruins of Criccieth Castle, which have extensive views over the town and surrounding countryside. Nearby on Ffordd Castell (Castle Way) is Cadwalader's Ice Cream Parlour, opened in 1927, whilst Stryd Fawr (High Street) has several bistro style restaurants. In the centre lies Y Maes ("The Field", or town square), part of the original medieval town common.

"Connecting Our Communities" is a campaign fundraising event and celebration!

This is Brian Lee.

The very talented, (even) younger man that I have the fortune to be in the same house with.

Today might not end up the way we wanted it to be.

We lacked the luck but we did try our best right?

There are many more days ahead and if this is the thing you love doing so much.

Don't give up and don't ever look back.

 

All the best in Australia.

 

P.S, Sorry for the not so good photo.

hahaha

The Postcard

 

This image is from a postcard produced by the Rotograph Company of New York City in 1907. They state on the reverse of the card that it is a real photograph on bromide paper.

 

There's no sign of an actual baby in the photograph; it's quite likely that they decided that it was quicker and easier (and cheaper!) to use a doll at the photoshoot.

 

The reverse shows that the postcard was processed by the U.S. Mail in Hoboken N.J. at 8.30 pm on Thursday the 22nd. September 1910.

 

It was sent to an address in Park Avenue Hoboken, and the recipient there was informed that Joe and Emma had had a baby girl who had arrived at 9 am. He was also told that Emma and the baby were doing fine.

 

Frank Sinatra

 

So what else happened on the 22nd. September 1910?

 

Well, nothing much of note in the United States - Hoboken would have to wait a further 5 years and 3 months for Mr. Francis Albert to enter the world, and 87 years and 8 months for him to leave it.

 

The First-Ever Flight in England

 

Elsewhere on that day it was the first time that an aircraft flew in England.

 

A Garment Workers' Strike

 

Also on that day, Hannah Shapiro, an 18-year-old seamstress at the Hart Schaffner & Marx factory in Chicago, led a walkout after the company announced a cut in the piecework rate.

 

At first, only 16 women went on strike, but by October, 40,000 garment workers joined in a work stoppage that would last for five months.

 

The Duke of York's Picturehouse

 

Also on the 22nd. September 1910, the Duke of York's Picturehouse opened in Brighton UK. It was one of the first purpose-built cinemas in the world.

 

It is still operating today, making it the oldest continually operating cinema in Great Britain.

 

It was built on the site of the Amber Ale Brewery, the walls of which still form the rear of the auditorium.

 

Thoughts From Frank Sinatra

 

“Alcohol may be man's worst enemy,

but the Bible says love your enemy.”

 

“The best revenge is massive success.”

 

“The big lesson in life, baby, is never

be scared of anyone or anything.”

 

“You may be a puzzle, but I like the

way the parts fit.”

 

"Basically, I'm for anything that gets

you through the night - be it prayer,

tranquilizers or a bottle of Jack Daniels.”

 

“A simple 'I love you' means more

than money.”

 

“The cigarettes you light one after

another won’t help you forget her.”

 

“For nobody else, gave me thrill -

with all your faults, I love you still.

It had to be you, wonderful you,

it had to be you.”

 

“I feel sorry for people that don't drink,

because when they wake up in the

morning, that is the best they are going

to feel all day.”

 

“The best is yet to come, and won't

that be fine.”

 

“Don’t hide your scars. They make

you who you are.”

 

“You only go around once, but if you

play your cards right, once is enough.”

 

(While accepting the Jean Hersholt

Humanitarian Award): "I've been thinking

about why you have to get famous to get

an award for helping other people.

If your name is John Doe, and you work

night and day doing things for your helpless

neighbors, what you get for your effort is

tired.

So, Mr. and Mrs. Doe, and all of you who

give of yourselves, to those who carry too

big a burden to make it on their own, I want

you to reach out and take your share of this.

Because if I have earned it, so too have you.”

 

“You only live once, and the way I live,

once is enough.”

 

"There are things about organized religion which

I resent. Christ is revered as the Prince of Peace,

but more blood has been shed in his name than

any other figure in history.

You show me one step forward in the name of

religion, and I'll show you a hundred retrogressions.

I'm for decency - period. I'm for anything and

everything that bodes love and consideration for

my fellow man.

But when lip service to some mysterious deity

permits bestiality on Wednesday and absolution

on Sunday - count me out.”

 

“That's life, and I can't deny it. Many times I

thought of cuttin' out, but my heart won't buy it.”

 

“I believe in you and me. I'm like Albert Schweitzer

and Bertrand Russell and Albert Einstein in that I

have a respect for life - in any form.

I believe in nature, in the birds, the sea, the sky,

in everything I can see or that there is real evidence

for.

If these things are what you mean by God, then I

believe in God. But I don't believe in a personal

God to whom I look for comfort or for a natural on

the next roll of the dice.”

 

“For what is a man, what has he got. If not himself,

then he has naught.”

 

“Ya gotta love livin', pally, cuz dyin's

a pain in the ass!”

 

“Fairy tales can come true,

It can happen to you

If you're young at heart.”

 

“If you possess something but you can't

give it away, then you don't possess it -

it possesses you.”

 

“I'm gonna live till I die.”

 

“I would like to be remembered as a

man who had a wonderful time living

life, a man who had good friends, fine

family - and I don't think I could ask for

anything more than that, actually.”

This is a photograph from the finish 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.

 

We have an extensive set of photographs from the race tonight taken at the 9KM mark and at 400M to go. The full set is available at: www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/sets/72157654823417232

I want get full resolution, print-quality, copies of these photographs?

 

If you just need these photographs for online usage then they can be used directly once you respect their Creative Commons license and provide a link back to our Flickr set if you use them. For offline usage and printing all of the photographs posted here on this Flickr set are available free, at no cost, at full image resolution.

 

Please email petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com with the links to the photographs you would like to obtain a full resolution copy of. We also ask race organisers, media, etc to ask for permission before use of our images for flyers, posters, etc. We reserve the right to refuse a request.

 

In summary please remember when requesting photographs from us - If you are using the photographs online all we ask is for you to provide a link back to our Flickr set or Flickr pages. You will find the link above clearly outlined in the description text which accompanies this photograph. Taking these photographs and preparing them for online posting takes a significant effort and time. We are not posting photographs to Flickr for commercial reasons. If you really like what we do please spread the link around your social media, send us an email, leave a comment beside the photographs, send us a Flickr email, etc. If you are using the photographs in newspapers or magazines we ask that you mention where the original photograph came from.

 

I would like to contribute something for your photograph(s)?

Many people offer payment for our photographs. As stated above we do not charge for these photographs. We take these photographs as our contribution to the running community in Ireland. If you feel that the photograph(s) you request are good enough that you would consider paying for their purchase from other photographic providers or in other circumstances we would suggest that you can provide a donation to any of the great charities in Ireland who do work for Cancer Care or Cancer Research in Ireland.

 

Let's get a bit technical: We use Creative Commons Licensing for these photographs

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

*This is Maddy.

Maddy is feral.

He lived on my patio after I trapped him and had him neutered about a year and a half ago.

The patio is gone.

A tragedy happened last September. My house was burned down and my life is forever changed.

I still take care of Maddy as much as he'll let me. We are survivors.

 

My house is still being rebuilt. The sink Maddy is laying in is one of 4 beautiful Talavera sinks going into my new house.

Maddy is so sweet and funny. This is the first time I've seen him bathe in the sink.*

There is a TV drama forthcoming on WowWow TV on racial discrimination, segregation versus integration issues. Here is a collection of cast members taken in between production shooting. It was perfect weather as well being an unusually warm day (19ºC) for early February. Every one seemed to enjoy themselves, except there was a lot of excess standing, so our legs became quite tired and sore.

 

Shoot location was Showa Memorial Park near Nishi Tachikawa Station, Tokyo, Japan. Anyone who is a subscriber to Wow Wow and is interested in viewing the movie, please send me a personal message. Cheers…..

 

本日のプロダクションは人種差別の主テーマとしてWowWowテレビで近い将来に放映する予定です。この写真集は撮影ロケでその番組のキャストメンバーです。天気も最適で最高でした。19ºCは2月の昇順ごろとしてとても例外的です。皆さんは楽しんでいましたが立つことはかなりありましてメンバーの一部の足み疲れてきて痛くなりました。

 

撮影ロケは西立川の昭和記念公園です。その番組予定の詳細を知りたい場合はメッセージを送って下さい。

This is a photograph from the 3rd round (of three) from the 2023 edition of the Pat Finnerty Memorial Mullingar Road League 5K which was held within the trail grounds of Belvedere House and Gardens, Lough Ennell, Mullingar, Co. Westmeath, Ireland on Wednesday 17th May 2023 at 20:00. This evening's race was held in perfect running conditions - no wind or breeze and warm spring sunshine. This race sees the conclusion of this year's series. The road league series was an immensely popular 5K race series which was held annually in May up to 2016. All proceeds of the event goes to North Westmeath Hospice. The series in 2023 was run over three races on the first three Wednesday evenings in May 2023. The series is hosted by Mullingar Harriers Athletics Club. It is anticipated that the series will return again in 2024.

This is a photograph from the Celbridge AC 5KM Road Race and Fun Run which was held at Celbridge AC running track, Clane Road, Celbridge, Co. Kildare, Ireland on Thursday 25th August 2022 at 20:00.

The race started on the Clane Road outside the Celbridge AC grounds and proceeded on a left-handed loop which took participants close to Celbridge mainstreet before taking a left turn westwards to return to the Clane Road and the grounds of Saint Wolstan's Community School and North Kildare Educate Together. The final 600meters of the race were held on the track of Celbridge AC. The race was held in beautiful summer evening weather with temperatures of around 16C making very favourable and pleasant conditions for participants. There was excellent marshalling and route layout with stewards on all junctions to ensure safe traffic management. Celbridge is a small town on the banks of the River Liffey and is only a short distance from the county border line with Dublin. The proximity to Dublin sees Celbridge boast a large population and the race today reflected this with a very large number of local athletes taking part from the almost 400 participants.

Is een keer wat anders. Hier zien we een collega van me druk aan het mesten op het land te Kamperveen. Dit is 1 van de nog weinige Claas Xerions in ons land. Let vooral op hoe die rijdt.

Moby Dick is my favorite American novel, and Melville inspires my landscape and seascape photography! “But as in landlessness alone resides the highest truth, shoreless, indefinite as God - so better is it to perish in that howling infinite, than be ingloriously dashed upon the lee, even if that were safety! For worm-like, then, oh! who would craven crawl to land!” ― Herman Melville, Moby Dick

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.

 

Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods: We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.

This is the chemical bottle storage in the Chemistry Room at the Central State Hospital Pathology Building that now serves as the Indiana Medical History Museum. Our guide spent a lot of time in this room because Central State mixed some of the earliest psychiatric drugs in this very room to treat its patients, which was a turning point in mental health care. There is still stuff in a lot of the bottles on display throughout the museum, even though drugs haven't been mixed here in decades. The whole museum really is a remarkable snapshot in time.
