The front door of the Alamo in San Antonio Texas is surrounded bu an impressive archway. On the keystone of the ornate arch there is an intertwined inscription that contains a M and a R but the rest of the inscription is harder to make out and is subject to interpretation. In fact this is the statement made on www.TheAlamo.com , the official website. " There are conflicting views as to what it says. According to Charles Ramsdell, an early San Antonio historian, the carving on the keystone bears the date "1758" and the monogram "Ave Maria." [1] Another early historian, Leonora Bennett, contends the monogram is composed of the letters "M.A.R." which stand for "Maria Angelorum Regina" or Mary Queen of Angels. According to Bennett, the initials "N.O.D." also appear on the keystone, signifying "Nationum Omnium Domina" or Mistress of All Nations. [2]A third explanation appears in Jacinto Quirarte’s The Art and Architecture of the Texas Missions (Austin: University of Texas Press, 2002, pages 62-64). According to artist/historian Mardith Schuetz-Miller, the intertwined letters are “AVMR” and stand for Ave Maria or Hail Mary. "

 

What do you think it says? I don't see 1758. It looks like 510K to me??? I have been to the Alamo several times and didn't know about the differing opinions on what the keystone inscription says until after this last visit. Next time i will take some more detailed photos with higher definition of the keystone. This is a crop from a image of the entire doorway. I need to take some closeups of the keystone itself. Always next time.

This is a Polaroid clone. It used Polaroid 100 pack film. Made by Berkey Photo, Inc. in the USA. An all plastic camera with a built in electronic flash. This one was originally sold at $24.99.

This rustic projector was photographed in a light tent with a 50mm (100mm equivalent ) macro lens. The image was processed as a 5-shot HDR with NIK HDR software. The final image was color tinted in Photoshop.

Got it purely for the awesome factor. Plus it was 5 clams.

I like the hand crank for the "engine".

One of the Keystone girls wanted me to touch up a picture for her. This is the result, but I explained that I can't take a point and shoot snapshot and make it look like it came from an SLR! (or, I can't spin straw into gold) I think these are the girls volleyball coaches, not the players themselves
