This is a boldly illustrated glass slide featuring the heroic lifeboat men saving the souls of a ship in distress.
The slide is from some time between the late 19th century and early 20th century. It would have been viewed using a Magic Lantern, an early type of image projector.

Testing Magic Lantern firmware and audio gear for HD video recording on the Canon 5D Mark II. The 5D has a poor built in microphone and a similarly poor microphone jack, no audio meters, and nasty auto gain (think noise). In order to move around freely with the camera and get decent audio you have to use some sort of preamp. In this case it's a juicedLink CX231. There are two microphones attached because I was testing to see which one worked better. The mics are the Sennheiser MKH-50 and ME64. (I will report back which one works better but my guess is with the low quality signal path they will be fairly similar, though the MHK-50 is normally superior.)
I'm using the Magic Lantern firmware hack for the Mark II because I needed the audio fixes (auto gain disable & audio input meters). So far it has worked as advertised. The annoying thing is also the reassuring thing with this software: It has to be reloaded from the CF card into RAM every time you turn on the camera, which means your camera reverts back to the Canon firmware every time. I'm not a fan of these kinds of hacks for expensive hardware - mostly because I cannot fix it myself should it screw up the device. More on Magic Lantern: magiclantern.wikia.com/wiki/Magic_Lantern_Firmware_Wiki
Mini review of the juicedLink CX231: (1) It is strong but crudely built, meaning it was not 'designed' externally. There are several sharp edges and it is larger than need be. (2) So far, it sounds OK but I'd have to send it into a decent A/D converter to be able to tell much. (3) No headphone jack, which is ridiculous considering the 5Dmkii has no audio meters or headphone jacks itself.

I'd recommend going LARGE for this shot! Remember to press 'Fullscreen' on the top right for an even better viewing experience!
After loading Magic Lantern v2.3 to my camera a few weeks back I am loving many of it's built in features, i'd strongly recommend it to anyone with a compatible camera.
Really enjoying HDR now, can't wait to revisit some places specifically to get a HDR! I've been trying out some different compositions at this location and decided this one didn't look to shabby! The small bridge connects all the different parts of the estate together.
Constructive criticism would be well appreciated for this shot!
Comments + Faves appreciated.

"Notice! Pictured Truth Meeting. East Bapt. Ch. Thursday afternoons at 4 o'clock. Magic Lantern Views. April 14, 1892, Pilgrim's Progress. Admission 3 cts. for children's Easter offering. Meeting for young and old."
A ticket for a Maundy Thursday magic lantern slide show at the East Baptist Church, Philadelphia, Pa., April 14, 1892.
"Pictured Truth" in this context seems to refer to the same sort of activities that Robert F. Y. Pierce described three years later in his book, Pictured Truth: A Hand-book of Blackboard and Object Lessons, (New York: Fleming H. Revell, 1895), which suggests the use of blackboard drawings (also called chalk talks) and everyday ordinary items (objects) to relate religious messages and lessons.
Or perhaps it was just the magic lantern slide show depicting scenes from Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan's Christian allegory, that was supposed to provide pictures of religious truth as well as raise funds for children to donate during the Easter services that were held three days later on April 17.
To attend those religious services on Easter Sunday 1892, which also included baptisms, churchgoers had to present "cards of admission" (tickets) for either the morning or afternoon services. For examples of the cards used that Sunday, see Admission Cards, Easter Sunday, East Baptist Church, Philadelphia, Pa., April 17, 1892.

Here's a stunning shot I captured of Messier 17 - The Omega / Swan Nebula. Messier 17 is a huge star forming nebula (H II region) residing at 5,000 light years distant with a diameter of 15 light years. Similar to the Orion Nebula, M17 has a blue reflection nebula, dark nebula, and red emissions nebula. Messier 17 is found in the constellation Sagittarius.

NOTE: The original magic lantern slide was beautifully hand-colored. Just for fun, I wanted to see what a closeup would look like done in sepia. Turned out pretty good! And that look on the baby's face - it's absolutely priceless. He's not sure just what to make of that missionary lady!
----------------------------------------------------------
This is a closeup from a beautifully hand-colored glass magic lantern slide named "Itinerating by Motorcycle with Side Car" on its accompanying script, which I was fortunate in acquiring along with the slide. The slide is number 8 in a series, and the script text reads: "Or if the road is not too bad, the missionary may make his trips in his motorcycle and side car."
This slide is from a set of slides from the early 1920s entitled "Building a New Africa" produced by "The Board of Foreign Missions of the Presbyterian Church, 156 Fifth Avenue, New York City" to promote the mission work of the Presbyterian Church.
The set was meant to be rented for a nominal fee by churches and shown to their congregations to raise money for the missionary endeavor at home and abroad. This particular set supports mission work in Africa. Part of the introductory slide to be read to the audience reads, "The Presbyterian share in the development of the new Africa is confined to a little section of West Africa, just north of the Equator, in the mandated territory of the Cameroun* .... Here the West Africa Mission, with 9 stations, and 88 missionaries, is trying to minister to the needs of 2,000,000 and more people over a territory of 100,000 square miles."
-----------------------------------------------------------
* Cameroun was a French mandate territory in central Africa, now constituting the majority of the territory of the Republic of Cameroon. During World War I, it was occupied by British and French troops, and later mandated to each country by the League of Nations in 1922. The British mandate was known as Cameroons and the French as Cameroun. Cameroun became independent as the Republic of Cameroun on January 1, 1960, following a complicated series of events and much bloodshed which continued for years afterward.

Somewhere I saw an old photo of this pose. One of the problems with the Canon EOS-M is no viewfinder. After quite a bit of searching, I found this one on Etsy. It was made for an old Yashica rangefinder with aux lenses. The brackets frame about the view at 25 and 35 mm. Now I can use my camera in the bright sun. Next problem to solve is the lens bug with MagicLantern and the 18-55 lens.
A shot I captured of M13 The Great Cluster in Hercules last night at Frosty Drew Observatory in Charlestown, Rhode Island, USA. The M13 globular cluster is about 22,000 light years away and is just barely naked eye visible over Frosty Drew.

MHS Title: “Women Working at a Bed Linen and Quilt Booth at the Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair. (U.S. Grant Sign on Back Wall).”
Date: May 1864
Photographer: J. A. Scholten (1829 – 1886)
Notes: The Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair was a fundraiser for the Western Sanitary Commission to provide for the relief of sick and wounded soldiers of the armies in the Mississippi Valley. The event was held in St. Louis, Mo., during the last couple weeks of May 1864.
Missouri, a southern border state that seceded from the Union in 1861, seems an unlikely venue for such an event, but Union forces occupied the state throughout the war, and the Fair turned out to be a big success, raising about $550,00.
Below are newspaper accounts that provide general information on the Fair, and specific information on the Bed Linen and Quilts booth (the side booth is pictured here, not the main one), the policy on admission of black attendees, the special building erected just for the “stereopticon,” and an article to illustrate that donations came from other states besides Missouri.

MISSISSIPPI VALLEY SANITARY FAIR
CIRCULAR
St. Louis, Mo., February 5, 1864.
“This Fair will be held in the city of St. Louis, Mo., on Tuesday, the 17th day of May next, to continue two or more weeks. Its object is to raise a sufficient fund for the sanitary uses of the armies in the Mississippi Valley, and for relief of their sick and wounded, under the general direction of the Western Sanitary Commission, whose headquarters are at Saint Louis. This Commission acts by direct authority from the Secretary of War, and enjoys all the rights and privileges which can properly be extended to such an organization. It is under the regulation of the Medical Department, and in connection with it; and, by special orders of Major General U. S. Grant, and of Assistant Surgeon General, Colonel R. C. Wood, it is recognized throughout the Western Department on equal terms with the U. S. Sanitary Commission, whose headquarters are at Washington…. it has aided in the care of the sick in every campaign and of the wounded from every battle-field from Wilson's Creek to Port Hudson, from Pea Ridge to Chattanooga…”

The Daily Countersign
Published by the Ladies' Executive Committee for the Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair
St. Louis, May 20, 1864.
"The Department of Bed Linen and Quilts has, prominent among its decorations, a portrait of the soldier who "knew well how to die, but never to surrender," the lamented of the whole country — General Lyon — by which it might be distinguished. It purports to contain only quilts and bed linen, but shows a very fine assortment of sofa pillows and afghans, which would seem more properly to belong" to the Fancy Goods Department. They are very elegant, of different patterns, dark and light, large and small. This department occupies two tables, one central and one at the side; and the central one contains perhaps the most showy of its articles. The most noticeable is a heavy silk quilt, made entirely of the national colors, beautifully combined, and corded heavily with scarlet, finished at the corners by tassels. We understand no definite price has yet been fixed upon it, but it will be raffled for before the close of the Fair, so those who desire it would do well to secure their chance. There is also a large woolen quilt, of the hexagon pattern, which is entered for the premium, and will also be raffled for, unless disposed of previously. Here one can certainly find quilts and bed spreads of all kinds — silk, cotton and woolen — for large beds, cribs and cradles, plain or highly ornamented. We cannot refrain from calling attention to one large knit spread. It is of white cotton, and beautifully knit. The one which bears a cat rampant, and must have cost much labor, will speak for itself. This is the place for the house-keeper who finds her pillow-cases "giving out" to supply herself for a long time to come. She can have her choice of cotton or linen, plain or embroidered, and of all styles and shapes. She cannot have, however, the elegantly embroidered set which may be found at the central table, for it is already sold."

"We trust that no one visiting either the city or the Fair will fail to go and see the Stereopticon, as without exception it is far more beautiful as a work of art than anything of the kind ever exhibited in this country, showing in wonderful perfection the success of the photographic art. Its views of statuary and sculpture embraces more than could be seen in months of travel in the old world. Any one visiting it, will not fail to go again. Open each day at 11 A. M., 3 P. M, and 8 P. M."

May 23, 1864 edition
“The Stereopticon, one of the most wonderful achievements of modern science, is to be seen in the large building on Olive street, west of the main entrance, at 3, 8, and 8 9 ½ P. M. This immense building was erected by the Sanitary Committee, expressly for this modern wonder. Admission 25 cents.”
[I can’t recall the source, but I read somewhere that this building held 1,000 people. I don't think it was a 3D show, per se, but more of a slide show, shown on a large screen in a movie theater like setting. –PT.]

From St. Louis.
The Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair.
“From Our Special Correspondent. St. Louis, May 18, 1864. To commence a letter from this city to-day with- out immediate allusion to the great Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair, would be to ignore an object upon which our citizens have in common with those of other places on similar occasions gone mad. “Fair on the brain” is the prevailing malady. The Fair was inaugurated yesterday by a magnificent procession, of which Maj. General Pleasanton was the Grand Marshall….Thousands of Illinoians are in town and they flocked to Washington Square, and stood for hours in the melting sun in hope of seeing Gov. Yates and hearing him speak. General Rosecrans made a few remarks, and the crowd was enthusiastic. All the stores were closed, and the city; never looked finer in the profusion of flags and bunting everywhere displayed.
To-day the Fair building was thrown open to the public, and it is simple justice to say that the quantity of things on exhibition, and the magnificence and completeness of all the decorations and preparations surpasses anything previously attempted in the Sanitary Fair line. With the experience and error of all its predecessors in view, the managers have succeeded in producing an exhibition which will long be remembered as the superlative of the beautiful. Financially, the Fair will probably surpass that of Brooklyn and only fall behind New York, which must be regarded as an extraordinary attainment for a city of a mixed population like St. Louis, where the rebel ladies are still outspoken in their sympathies with Jeff Davis and whose people have moreover suffered largely from the war besides having given generously in times past for the same cause. It is a wonder to those engaged in the business that the Fair is so successfully started. Many ladies in soliciting donations of refreshments and assistance in work on streets, or in blocks assigned to the committee, were openly insulted by secession remarks and frowned at as if they and not the soldiers were the recipients of such contributions. But some secessionists who want to be thought loyal at least have given their time and money (on compulsion as it seems) to save their credit, and thus the rebel families have some honor left, though these gifts do not amount to a tithe of the sum expended by the Union ladies of St. Louis for the sick and wounded rebels in our hospitals.”

"Mr. F. T. L. Boyle.
St. Louis, Mo., [month omitted] 27, 1864.
Executive Committee Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair:
Gentlemen: Understanding that it is your determination to continue the admission of negroes on an equality with whites, rendering it possible that white ladies may be subject to the insult of being called on to serve these negroes. I, while such counsels prevail among you, decline longer to serve even for the good object in view, and here-with now tender my resignation. FERDINAND T. L. BOYLE,
The only comment we care to make on the above is, that Mr. Boyle, a few months ago, was an earnest applicant in this city for the command of a regiment or brigade of negro troops! —Missouri Democrat."

The Evening News
Gold Hill, Nevada Territory
Wednesday Evening, April 27, 1864
NEVADA'S CONTRIBUTION.
"The people of this Territory have responded very cheerfully to the call made upon them by the managers of the Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair, more than fifteen thousand dollars' worth of silver bars having been purchased for that purpose. Of this amount the town of Gold Hill furnishes nearly five thousand dollars. The following dispatch was sent over the wires this morning:
General Rosecrans, President at Mississippi Valley Sanitary Fair, St. Louis, Mo.
We hear the echo of your appeal. Nevada Territory will send over fifteen thousand dollars in gold and silver bars for the Mississippi Valley Fair. ALMARIN B. PAUL, President Storey County Sanitary Assn.
These massive bars of glittering bullion will be an unwonted and astonishing sight to thousands at the great Fair, and will give them an exalted idea of the wealth, liberality and patriotism of this remote Territory."

SWANS - Semi-Wide Angle Nebulae Survey
The Western part of this huge but faint bubble of ionized gas happened to be grazed by the margin of the shot made at day 2. With its 3° width it deserves a separate shot.
This is a complex object, containing several individually designated parts, and a huge portion of it is unseen by human eye.

ISO 2000 and 4000
Exposures: 41@ ISO2000 and 21@ISO400 (plus 15+10 dark frames and 10+10 offset frames plus 2 fake flat-field frames).
Processing: Contrast was set to "linear" for all images in Canon DPP and 16-bit outputs were fed to DSS (note for DSS users: each ISO-set was processen in separate group with only Master Flat residing in the Main Group, Maximum Enthropy image generation mode was used ).
Flat-field images were made by applying Gaussian Blur of 250 pixel radius to a randomly chosen image from the series. Once made, Master Flat works fine and removes vingetting very efficiently.
16-bit stacking result were then processed in Photoshop with Levels (namely gamma was set to 3,5) and Curves (skewed sigmoid curve was applied two times).
Note: some star-reduction technique wouldn't hurt...

The trajectory for the International Space Station had it enter view from the NW, pass nearly directly overhead, and fall into the Earth's shadow just before traversing Jupiter.
I was fumbling with my Canon SL1 with the Magic Lantern intervalometer and discovered that the only battery was dead. I quickly switched lenses to my Canon 6D MkII, and (without the intervalometer) held my shutter in slow burst mode for 60 frames. I salvaged 52 after cropping the fisheye composite image. 1.6 seconds per frame, ISO 1600, and f/2.8 on the Rokinon 12mm focus near infinity. Base layer was still shot for test lighting (manual lens), top layers lightened, and mask applied to top layers to hide star trail.
