These are some. TSO pictures taken by a friend last, night that she posted on facebook. I asked that since she offered them up for public domain on Facebook. She said yes so here they are for you to enjoy.
One of the regular musical acts at California Adventure, "Five & Dime."
This is a 16:9 ratio image. I used Nik Software's Analog Efex Pro to mimic an older photo and selectively re-added in the colors of the background (blue tiles, green leaves on the trees) and the performers to keep the image looking like I had captured the image on an older film camera.

He was mainly responsible for the establishment of a superannuation system for the Post and Telegraph Department.[4]

APPLICATION GRANTED BY COURT SON IN POOR HEALTH
An application for an allowance from the estate of William Farquhar Young, music teacher, of Sumner, was made in the Supreme Court yesterday by Claude Farquhar Young, a son, and Ethel Keir Lawrenson, a daughter. The application, which was made under the Family Protection Act, was granted by Mr Justice Northcroft, who directed that the son, stated to be in poor health, should receive £1 a week, and that a contingent allowance should be made to the daughter. Mr W. R. Lascelles appeared for Claude Farquhar Young and Mr T. A. Gresson for Ethel Keir Lawrenson, the latter being joined as a defendant in the petition of the former. The defendants were the Perpetual Trustees Estate and Agency Company. Ltd. (Mr C. S. Thomas), executors of the will, the widow, Mildred Ammon Young (Mr A. W. Brown), six grandchildren of the deceased (Mr J. D. Hutchison), and Sarah Louisa Clark, another legatee (Mr W. J. Sim). Children's Small Legacies Mr Lascelles explained that the testator died on January 29, 1937, leaving an estate valued at about £11,643. He had two children by his first wife, who died in February, 1915, Young remarrying in December of the same year. The two children were Claude Farquhar Young, aged 54. married, with five children, and a daughter, Ethel Keir Lawrenson, aged 52, married, with one child. The will left by the testator bequeathed to his son only a gold watch valued at £6, and to his daughter only a piece of jewellery to be selected by her stepmother. To Miss Sarah Louisa Clark, a masseuse who attended him, the testator left £300, with a further £2OO on the death of the widow if she should survive her. The widow received Clifton House, valued at £1580, a legacy of £1000, and the income from the estate for life. At her death, the testator ordered that the estate should be divided amongst his six grandchildren….[6]

...A great many of New Zealand’s prominent lecturers and public men, including members of the Bar, have received a great part of their elocutionary training from Mr Young, and the late Justice O.T.J.

The Annual Concert 1917
Farquhar Young's name is a household word in all Celtic homes throughout New Zealand, his services are eagerly competed for by both Scottish and Irish Societies from Auckland to the Bluff, and year after year he appears at some big annual function —equally at Home either on a, Burns' anniversary or St. Patrick's night. The brave stand made by our gallant Gordon Highlanders, when, hopelessly outnumbered, they stopped the first mad rush of the Hun — alas! [3]
