First ever attempt at shooting a model, at the Olympus event at Gifford's circus in Oxford. The circus show has an early 70s theme so the model was dressed as a hippie in keeping with the period.

Cloudy weather, soft light and a nice open space in a park. A location does not necessarily have to be difficult to take beautiful atmospheric photos.

I shoot many genres under “Black & White” I think portraiture has to be one of the most challenging and rewarding. I hope you enjoy.

I have been wanting to do something with images I shot of this old hotel a month ago as well as peel the rust off some techniques I learned at the Joel Grimes workshop ( www.flickr.com/photos/29210138@N04/ ) . Since I have a lovely summer cold today seemed like a good and besides its 116 degrees today. Thanks to Burn Fetish ( www.flickr.com/photos/58911047@N05/ ) I've been tuned on to new underground hip hop tunenage ( www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAe4vNmzjm4 ).
The Georgian
The Georgian Hotel first opened in the spring of 1933. Built during the peak of California’s coastal expansion of the late ’20s and early ’30s, The Georgian Hotel was the vision of Mrs. Rosamond Borde. Mrs. Borde was a pioneer in an industry dominated by men and was regarded as a progressive marketer. By hiring a classically trained architect, Mrs. Borde assured that The Georgian’s design showcased both the Romanesque Revival and Art Deco architectural styles. Originally, The Georgian was one of the first “skyscrapers” along a then sparsely populated Ocean Ave.

"Pioneer Pullman of the Air"
Until the mid-1920s, American commercial airplanes were built for mail, not people.
Boeing's Model 80, along with the Ford and Fokker tri-Motors, were a new breed of passenger aircraft.
The 80 first flew in August 1928 and was working along Boeing Air Transport's route two weeks later.
The 12-passenger Model 80 and the more-powerful 18-passenger 80A (re-designated 80A-1s when the tail surfaces were modified in 1930) stayed in service until 1933, when replaced by the all-metal Boeing Model 247.
The Museum's Model 80A-1, equipped with three Pratt & Whitney 525-horsepower "Hornet" engines, was retired from service with United in 1934.
In 1941, it became a cargo aircraft with a construction firm in Alaska. To carry large equipment, including a massive 11,000-pound (4,950 kg) boiler, a cargo door was cut into the plane's side. After the war, the 80 was stored and then discarded.
It was recovered from a dump in 1960 and eventually brought to Seattle for restoration. It is the only surviving example of the Boeing Model 80 series.
Stewardesses
In 1930, Miss Ellen Church, a student pilot and registered nurse, convinced Boeing management to hire female cabin attendants for their Model 80 flights.
Until then, it had been the co-pilot's duty to pass out box lunches, serve coffee, and tend to the passenger's needs.
Church reasoned that the sight of women working aboard the Boeing 80s would alleviate the passenger's fear of air travel. She and seven others, all nurses, became America's first stewardesses. Serving on a trial basis, they were very popular and became a permanent part of American commercial aviation.
The Luxury
A passenger flying in Boeing's earlier Model 40 was in for an uncomfortable trip. The 40 was designed for mail -- people were secondary, packed like sardines into the cold and noisy fuselage.
The advent of the Model 80 brought some comfort to travel.
The 80A had room for 18, a heated cabin, and leather seats. There was individual reading lights and the lavatory featured hot and cold running water.
Although the 80 had a luxurious interior, flying was tough by today's standards: the cabin wasn't pressurized, engine noise made conversation difficult, and despite heaters, the cabin was sometimes very cold.
