Crystal Blue Persuasion, released in 1968 by Tommy James and the Shondells. The song has been used in several films over the years and in numerous media and entertainment properties, both onscreen and off. Some may be more familiar with its use in Breaking Bad Season 5 Episode 8 Gliding Over All. HMM!

The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling, raspy scream that sounds exactly like a raptor should sound. At least, that’s what Hollywood directors seem to think. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, no matter what species, the shrill cry on the soundtrack is almost always a Red-tailed Hawk.
The Cloisters connect the East and West quadrangles and lead inside the Gilbert Scott Building to the stunning Bute Hall. With their fluted columns and transverse ribbed vault, these impressive archways are an iconic part of the University, and have been seen onscreen in many films and TV shows.

I was amazed of the huge, I mean very huge LCD monitor in The Village as shown in my previous upload, but I was more amazed, I mean, astonished of the gigantic LCD that The Place has. There are two, four storey shopping malls beneath two office towers. A huge skyscreen links the two malls. The screen itself is a massive 4800 square meters! At night this screen is an amazing diversion for shoppers and a reflection of Beijing’s determination to show off its modern capabilities when it hosted the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Onscreen is the aerial view of the legendary Great Wall of China.
Thanks for taking the time to view my image. It is very appreciated

What made this one special was that I shot it in a weird WL setting that almost looked like a negative image onscreen. I tried shooting it with the negative SL filter and this is what I got!
And oldie, but a goodie. Perhaps my favorite Scrub Jay portrait, I just wanted it onscreen for a few days.
A few years ago, the powers that be decided that there were five species of California Scrub Jay. This would probably be the Inland scrub, but how far inland is inland before it becomes a Valley scrub Jay? So, if you don't mind, I'll just use "scrub jay" and not concern myself.
I love this bird. It is a kind of "crow" of "my" jays. It is intelligent, playful, and mean to "my" squirrels. On the mountain, I'd often see the jay watching a squirrel with an acorn. His problem, though he didn't know it, was that a crow was watching them both. I actually watched one half-hour adventure where the acorn was buried and dug up three times! The University of California at Davis' studies show that the Scrub Jay is as intelligent as a Crow, and is exceeded only by dolphins and *some* humans. (Actually, I threw in that last stat.)
I am a little concerned. The scrub jay was very common here, here being a five mile radius of our house to Mt. Diablo, Heather Farm, and our own "community." I haven't seen one in the last three years. Probably more my lack of mobility than any other issue, but I still miss them.
The California scrub jay (Aphelocoma californica) is a species of scrub jay native to western North America. It ranges from southern British Columbia throughout California and western Nevada near Reno to west of the Sierra Nevada. The California scrub jay was once lumped with Woodhouse's scrub jay and collectively called the western scrub jay. The group was also lumped with the island scrub jay and the Florida scrub jay; the taxon was then called simply scrub jay. The California scrub jay is nonmigratory and can be found in urban areas, where it can become tame and will come to bird feeders. While many refer to scrub jays as "blue jays", the blue jay is a different species of bird entirely.
Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)
Red-tailed Hawks are large hawks with typical Buteo proportions: very broad, rounded wings and a short, wide tail. Large females seen from a distance might fool you into thinking you’re seeing an eagle. (Until an actual eagle comes along.)….. You’ll most likely see Red-tailed Hawks soaring in wide circles high over a field. When flapping, their wingbeats are heavy. In high winds they may face into the wind and hover without flapping, eyes fixed on the ground. They attack in a slow, controlled dive with legs outstretched – much different from a falcon’s stoop….. The Red-tailed Hawk is a bird of open country. Look for it along fields and perched on telephones poles, fenceposts, or trees standing alone or along edges of fields….. The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling, raspy scream that sounds exactly like a raptor should sound. At least, that’s what Hollywood directors seem to think. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, no matter what species, the shrill cry on the soundtrack is almost always a Red-tailed Hawk.”

During my recent trip to Scotland one of the buildings I visited was The Hunterian Museum outside which is this magnificent structure . The University of Glasgow is the fourth oldest university in the English-speaking world, established in 1451. The Undercroft (commonly known as The Cloisters) is one of the most photographed and iconic parts of the university campus, a collection of pillars at the centre of the Main Building. Situated below Bute Hall, the Undercroft or Cloisters link the west and east quadrangles (the inner courtyards) together.
With their fluted columns and transverse ribbed vault, these impressive archways are an iconic part of the University, and have been seen onscreen in many films and TV shows including Cloud Atlas and Outlander.
The shot was taken Monday 9 July. The shot was taken with a Sony A550
with a Sigma 10-20mm at 10mm. I. took 3 shots for HDR and processed with Photomatix 6.
I used Topaz Clarity to add more detail.

I've looks up spring flowers online, and I think this is Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis), but feel free to correct me. This was the one and only patch on the little trail near us. As is typical with the early spring, they were close to ground level. Depending on your monitor, the blooms may be the same size as what you are seeing onscreen.
British postcard, no. 257.
Endearing Anna Neagle (1904-1986) was a leading star in British films for over 25 years from 1932. She provided glamour and sophistication to war-torn London audiences with her lightweight musicals, comedies and historical dramas. Almost all of her films were produced and directed by Herbert Wilcox, whom she married in 1943.
Anna Neagle was born Florence Marjorie Robertson in Forest Gate (near London), in 1904. She was the daughter of Herbert Robertson, a merchant navy captain, and his wife, the former Florence Neagle. Her brother was actor Stuart Robinson. S he made her stage debut as a dancer in 1917. In 1925 she appeared in the chorus of André Charlot's revue Bubbly, and later also in C.B. Cochran's revues, where she understudied Jessie Matthews. ActorJack Buchanan encouraged her to take on a featured role in the musical Stand Up and Sing (1931), and she began using the professional name of Anna Neagle (the surname being her mother's maiden name). The play was a huge success with a total run of 604 performances. Her big break came when film producer-director Herbert Wilcox caught the show purposely to consider Buchanan for his upcoming film. He was taken (and smitten) with Anna. Photographing extremely well, Neagle was a natural for the screen and she played her first starring film role opposite Jack Buchanan in the musical Goodnight Vienna (1932, Herbert Wilcox). Neagle became an overnight favourite. Although the film cost a mere £23,000, it was a huge hit at the box office, profits from its Australian release alone being £150,000. After her starring role in The Flag Lieutenant (1932, Henry Edwards), she worked exclusively under Wilcox's direction for all but one of her subsequent films, becoming one of Britain's biggest stars. She continued in the musical genre, co-starring with Fernand Gravey (aka Fernand Gravet) in Bitter Sweet (1933), the first film version of Noel Coward's tale of ill-fated lovers. Neagle had her first major film success in the title role of Nell Gwynn (1934), as the woman who became the mistress of Charles II (Sir Cedric Hardwicke). In the United Status, the Hays Office had Wilcox add a (historically false) scene featuring the two leads getting married and also a ´framing story´ resulting in an entirely different ending. Author Graham Greene said of Nell Gwynn: "I have seen few things more attractive than Miss Neagle in breeches". Two years later, she followed up with another real-life figure, Irish actress Peg Woffington in Peg of Old Drury (1936). Neagle and Wilcox then made the backstage musical Limelight (1936) and a circus trapeze fable The Three Maxims (1937). The latter film, with a script co-written by Herman J. Mankiewicz (who later co-wrote Citizen Kane), had Neagle performing her own high-wire acrobatics. Although now highly successful in films, Neagle continued to act on stage too. In 1934, she performed as Rosalind in As You Like It and Olivia in Twelfth Night, directed by Robert Atkins. She earned critical accolades in both productions, despite the fact that she had never before done any Shakespeare.
In 1937 Anna Neagle gave her most prestigious performance so far – as Queen Victoria in the successful historical drama Victoria the Great (1937), co-starring Anton Walbrook as Prince Albert. Victoria the Great was such an international success that it resulted in Neagle and Walbrook essaying their roles again in an all-Technicolor sequel entitled Sixty Glorious Years (1938), co-starring C. Aubrey Smith as the Duke of Wellington. While the first of these films was in release, Neagle returned to the London stage in the title role in Peter Pan. The two Queen Victoria biographies were successful enough to get Wilcox and Neagle a contract with RKO Radio Pictures, and they moved to Hollywood at the end of the 1930´s. Their first American film was Nurse Edith Cavell (1939). She essayed the role of the true-lifenurse who was shot by the Germans in World War I for alleged spying. The film had a significant impact for audiences on the eve of war. In a turnabout from this serious drama, they followed with three musical comedies, all based on once-popular stage plays. The first was Irene (1940), co-starring Ray Milland. It included a Technicolor sequence, which featured Neagle singing the play's most famous song, Alice Blue Gown. She followed this film with No, No, Nanette (1940) with Victor Mature, and Sunny (1941) with Ray Bolger. During the war Anna Neagle entertained the troops. Her final American film was Forever and a Day (1943), a tale of a London family house from 1804 to the 1940 blitz. This film boasts 80 performers (mostly British), including Ray Milland, C. Aubrey Smith, Claude Rains, Charles Laughton, and – among the few Americans – Buster Keaton. Wilcox directed the sequence featuring Neagle, Milland, Smith, and Rains, while other directors who worked on the film included René Clair, Edmund Goulding, Frank Lloyd, Victor Saville and Robert Stevenson. During the war the profits and salaries were given to war relief. After the war, prints were slated to be destroyed, so that no one could profit from them. However, this never occurred.
Returning to England, Anna Neagle and Herbert Wilcox commenced with They Flew Alone (1942). Neagle added another real-life British heroines to her gallery, this time as aviatrix Amy Johnson. The film, released a year after the aviatrix’s death, was noted for inter-cutting the action with newsreel footage. They returned to filmmaking with the war-time espionage thriller The Yellow Canary (1943), co-starring Richard Greene and Margaret Rutherford. Neagle played a German-sympathiser (or that is what she seems to be at first) who is forced to go to Canada for her own safety. In reality, she's working as an undercover agent. After making this film, Neagle and Wilcox made their professional relationship a personal one as well when they married in 1943. In 1945 Neagle appeared on stage in Emma, a dramatization of Jane Austen's novel. That same year she was seen in the film I Live in Grosvenor Square, co-starring Rex Harrison. For seven straight years after WWII, she was voted top favorite English actress. She wanted Harrison again for the lead in her next film, Piccadilly Incident (1946). He proved to be unavailable, so Wilcox cast Michael Wilding in the lead. Thus was born what film critic Godfrey Winn called "the greatest team in British films". The story – of a wife, presumed dead, returning to her (remarried) husband – bears a resemblance to the Irene Dunne-Cary Grant comedy My Favorite Wife. Piccadilly Incident was chosen as Picturegoer’s Best Film of 1947. Neagle and Wilding were reunited in The Courtneys of Curzon Street (1947), a period drama that became the year's top box-office attraction. The film featured Wilding as an upper-class dandy and Neagle as the maid he marries, only to have the two of them driven apart by Victorian society. The third pairing of Neagle and Wilding in the London films, as the series of films came to be called, was in Spring in Park Lane (1948), which depicted the romance between a millionaire’s niece and a valet. Spring in Park Lane was the 1949 Picturegoer winner for Best Film, Actor and Actress. Neagle and Wilding were together for a fourth time in the Technicolor romance Maytime in Mayfair (1949). The plot is reminiscent of Roberta, as it had Wilding inheriting a dress shop owned by Neagle. David Absalom comments on his great website BritishPictures.com: “These films rarely pleased the critics. This is particularly true of the "London Series" of frothy nonsense, usually co-starring Michael Wilding and usually musicals. The critics wanted neo-realist pictures depicting grim reality - the audience, who were suffering through the Austerity Years and knew all about grim reality, wanted fun and escapism. Anna Neagle pictures provided that in spades.”
By 1950, Anna Neagle was at her zenith as Britain’s top box-office actress, and in that year she made what reputedly became her own favorite film, Odette, co-starring Trevor Howard, Peter Ustinov, and Marius Goring. As Odette Sansom, she was the Anglo-French resistance fighter who was pushed to the edge of betrayal by the Nazis. Going from this real-life British heroine, she went straight on to playing Florence Nightingale in The Lady with the Lamp (1951).Returning to the stage in 1953, she scored a major success with The Glorious Days, which had a run of 476 performances. Neagle and Wilcox brought the play to the screen under the title Lilacs in the Spring (1954), co-starring Errol Flynn. In the film she plays an actress knocked out by a bomb, who dreams she is Queen Victoria and Nell Gwyn – as well as her own mother. As she begins dreaming, the film switches from black and white to color. Neagle and Flynn reteamed for a second film together, King's Rhapsody (1955), based on an Ivor Novello musical. Although Neagle performed several musical numbers for the film, most of them were cut from the final release, leaving her with essentially a supporting role. Shot in Eastmancolor and CinemaScope with location work near Barcelona, Spain, King's Rhapsody was a major flop everywhere. Neagle's (and Flynn's) box-office appeal, it seemed, was beginning to fade. Neagle's last box-office hit was My Teenage Daughter (1956), which featured her as a mother trying to prevent her daughter (Sylvia Syms) from lapsing into juvenile deliquency. Neagle and Syms worked together again on No Time For Tears (1957), also starring Anthony Quayle and Flora Robson. As directed by Cyril Frankel, this was the first film for over 20 years where Neagle was directed by someone other than Herbert Wilcox. She produced a series of films directed by her husband, including These Dangerous Years (1957), Wonderful Things! (1958), and The Heart of a Man (1959). The films all starred pop idol Frankie Vaughan, but they were out of touch with changing tastes, and lost money, resulting in Wilcox going heavily into debt. Neagle herself made her final film appearance in The Lady is a Square (1959) opposite Franke Vaughan. Herbert Wilcox was bankrupt by 1964, but his wife soon revived his fortunes. She returned to the stage the following year and made a spectacular comeback in the West End musical Charlie Girl. In it she played the role of a former ´Cochran Young Lady´ who marries a peer of the realm. Charlie Girl was a phenomenal success that ran for a staggering six years and 2,047 performances. During the show's six-year run, Neagle was made a Dame of the British Empire in1970 in recognition of her work. Two years after Charlie Girl she appeared in a revival of No, No, Nanette, which she had done onscreen three decades earlier. In 1975, she replaced Celia Johnson in The Dame of Sark and in 1978 (the year after her husband's death), she was acting in Most Gracious Lady, which was written for the Silver Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. Although plagued by Parkinson's disease in her later years, Neagle continued to be active well into her eighties. On TV she was last seen in an episode of Roald Dahl's Tales of the Unexpected (1983). In 1985 she appeared as the Fairy Godmother in a production of Cinderella at the London Palladium. Neagle was still working in 1986, just a few weeks before her death in West Byfleet, England, from complications of renal disease and cancer. She was 81.

The seven-year itch is a popular belief, that happiness in a marriage or long-term romantic relationship declines after around seven years.
The phrase was used in the title of the play The Seven Year Itch by George Axelrod, and gained popularity following the 1955 film adaptation starring Marilyn Monroe and Tom Ewell.
The notion of a husband cheating on his wife was considered a completely unacceptable action onscreen during the 1950’s. It was a time when the censors had a field day deciding what they believed was morally accepted. That is why The Seven Year Itch (1955) succeeded and failed at the same time as a film. It failed because Director Billy Wilder was hamstrung by film censor rules and a moral code of decency. Wilder always personally felt that his vision for the film was unjustly compromised. But it succeeded because the forced changes allowed it to play out as a wonderful comedy/fantasy film, teasing the audience about infidelity without actually going too far unlike the stage play it was based on, which actually showed the husband cheating on his wife. For Wilder, who was known for pushing the envelope, by showing themes no one else would dare do, it was a compromise that he eventually accepted and surprisingly for him payed dividends.
The scene in the film, where Marilyn stood over a subway grate and her white dress blew up in the air by a train passing underneath made cinematic history.

Who Wants to be a Millionaire has been broadcast in 107 countries, making a small fortune for 2waytraffic which produces it.
At least according to Media Revolution: Tomorrow's TV via the money programme:
The final episode of Media Revolution, a three-part series from the Money Programme, looks at the transformation of the UK TV industry.
Despite exporting half the world's TV formats, the British TV industry is in crisis. Max Flint takes us on a journey from the set of the Macedonian Who Wants To Be A Millionaire to Soho production houses, Sunset Boulevard and the new cities of China to discover how television will be made in the future.
He charts the extraordinary rise of Britain's global tele-industry, but learns that like print, British TV's very existence is threatened by plummeting advertising revenues, the internet, and the explosion of information sources. He discovers that product placement, merchandising and new ways of approaching the massive problem of piracy are all part of the future.
With contributions from top execs, onscreen stars and legendary producers, the film asks what it will take to keep one of Britain's chief creative industries alive.
The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling, raspy scream that sounds exactly like a raptor should sound. At least, that’s what Hollywood directors seem to think. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, no matter what species, the shrill cry on the soundtrack is almost always a Red-tailed Hawk.

PA_1585 [50 points]
One of the 23 space invaders installed by Invader because of his participation of the exposition BEYOND THE STREETS in La Grand Halle de la Villette. It's all about the great legends of street art and graffiti The exposition is from 27/05/2026 till 30/08/2026.
The last space invader I found, captured and flashed this sunny and warm evening. I found 16 of the 19 space invaders.. It was a long time ago I flashed so many new invaders on one day (within 1h50).
This one is located around the corner of the Conservatoire national supérieur de musique.

This is probably the most common hawk in North America. If you’ve got sharp eyes you’ll see several individuals on almost any long car ride, anywhere.The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling, raspy scream that sounds exactly like a raptor should sound. At least, that’s what Hollywood directors seem to think. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, no matter what species, the shrill cry on the soundtrack is almost always a Red-tailed Hawk.
This is a shot from my third encounter with this young Hawk. S/he really likes to hunt from the same spot near the lake, and pays me little attention.
Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis)
Red-tailed Hawks are large hawks with typical Buteo proportions: very broad, rounded wings and a short, wide tail. Large females seen from a distance might fool you into thinking you’re seeing an eagle. (Until an actual eagle comes along.)….. You’ll most likely see Red-tailed Hawks soaring in wide circles high over a field. When flapping, their wingbeats are heavy. In high winds they may face into the wind and hover without flapping, eyes fixed on the ground. They attack in a slow, controlled dive with legs outstretched – much different from a falcon’s stoop….. The Red-tailed Hawk is a bird of open country. Look for it along fields and perched on telephones poles, fenceposts, or trees standing alone or along edges of fields….. The Red-tailed Hawk has a thrilling, raspy scream that sounds exactly like a raptor should sound. At least, that’s what Hollywood directors seem to think. Whenever a hawk or eagle appears onscreen, no matter what species, the shrill cry on the soundtrack is almost always a Red-tailed Hawk.”

This fresque is made in the year 1989 by Louise Vines. Inspired by the eponymous poem of 1819 by Percy Bysshe Shelley, who lived around the corner in 15 Poland Street; the mutilated tree is also a reference to the Great Storm of 1987. Originally proposed in 1986 by the Soho Jazz Festival, which then abandoned the commission; it was subsequently taken up by the Soho Society. [ Wikipedia ].

"The Cloisters (also known as The Undercroft) connect the East and West quadrangles and lead inside the Gilbert Scott Building to the stunning Bute Hall, where the University’s graduation ceremonies are held, and the Hunterian Museum. With their fluted columns and transverse ribbed vault, these impressive archways are an iconic part of the University, and have been seen onscreen in many films and TV shows including Cloud Atlas and Outlander."

Excerpt from toronto.ca:
“Halcyon” is a video and dance performance designed to question the range of ways in which we constantly tune and adjust our self-presentation, both onscreen and in real life. How do we translate what we feel in our bodies into something material? Can we turn it into a colour, a pattern, a sound? Immersed in a deep blue field of colour, live dancers will trigger a cascade of melodic sounds with the movement of their bodies. Nearby, a backdrop of glitching, looping video will evoke an unending process of creation, mutation and disintegration. The result will be an intimate, embodied performance set against a fragmented data-moshing screen. A 12-hour performance that evokes questions of labour, fatigue and the limitations of the body, “Halcyon” promises to be a meditation on the accumulation of memory, the disintegration of movement, and the relationship between desire and distance.
