Nella parte di oceano a Sud di Tenerife si possono ammirare decine e decine di balene in transito.
Le più impressionanti sono le Balene Pilota, per l'eleganza con cui affiorano per respirare e poi tornare a scomparire nel blu profondo

The Canadian Rockies mountain range spans the provinces of British Columbia and Alberta. With jagged, ice-capped peaks, including towering Mt. Robson, it's a region of alpine lakes, diverse wildlife and outdoor recreation sites. Yoho National Park is home to the massive Takakkaw Falls. Other national parks are Jasper, with the famously accessible Athabasca Glacier, and Banff, site of glacier-fed Lake Louise. Pilot Mountain was named by George Dawson because it is a landmark to travellers in the Bow Valley. It may be seen up and down the Bow Valley for a considerable distance and because of its special location, may be viewed when looking west from east of Banff Townsite and when looking southeast from northwest of Lake Louise.

Una càmera alemana poc coneguda però força interessant i divertida de fer servir és la KW Pilot-6. És curiós com certs elements que després faran de la Hasselblad una de les millors (o potser la millor?) càmeres de la historia, ja s'apunten aquí. Es tracta d'una càmera reflex de format 6x6 cm (SLR), amb visor superior i objectius intercambiables.
En detriment del seu "llinatge" vers la "Hassy" val a dir que no pot canviar de rodet amb xassis intercambiables, ni avança automaticament la pel·licula, i que el obturador és un model de guillotina força cru i lent. Amb tot, es plega en fomat cub molt facil de manipular, té el selector de velocitats / carregador en la mateixa posició que la Hasselblad, i la velocitat màxima no és pas tant lenta, 1/200 (la Hasselblad 500C/M només arriba a 1/500).
Fou fabricada per KameraWerkstatten (Dresden), entre 1936 i la Segona Guerra Mundial, i la variant Pilot Super, entre 1939 i 1941. Aquesta incorporava un primitiu fotometre d'extinció.
Aquesta en concret és del model fabricat a partir de 1938, funciona perfectament, i la vaig comprar molt bé de preu al festival de fotografia analògica Revela'T, de Vilassar de Dalt.

=============================
A little known German camera but quite interesting and fun to use is the KW Pilot-6. It's relevant how certain elements that will later make the Hasselblad one of the best (or maybe the best?) cameras in history, are already here. It is a 6x6 cm single-lens reflex camera (SLR), with a top viewfinder and interchangeable lenses.
To the detriment of its "lineage" towards the "Hassy" it cannot change film with interchangeable backs, nor does it automatically advance the film, and the shutter is a rather crude and slow guillotine model. All in all, it folds into a very easy-to-manipulate cube format, has the speed selector / cocking lever in the same position as the Hasselblad, and the maximum speed is not that slow, 1/200 (the Hasselblad 500C/M only reaches 1/500).
It was manufactured by KameraWerkstätten (Dresden), between 1936 and World War 2, and the Pilot Super variant, between 1939 and 1941. This one incorporated a primitive extinction light meter.
This particular one is of the model manufactured from 1938 onwards, it works perfectly, and I bought it at a very good price at the analog photography festival Revela'T, in Vilassar de Dalt, Catalonia.

I'm realtively certain i've single handedly made Kaz a lindenaire but squeeee, I finally have the full set!
As you can see, this trip takes you right up to the Redsands forts in the Thames Estuary.
These 'Maunsell' forts (named after their designer, Guy Maunsell) were built in the Second World War as anti aircraft forts as a defence against the German bombing raids following the river to London. There are seven towers, which were connected by walkways and they were part of a series of defences in the Thames, along with the Shivering Sands forts, the Nore fort and the Knock John fort.
I can remember as a kid in the 1960's listening to the pirate radio stations that used to broadcast from the forts, including Radio City and Screaming Lord Such (he of the Monster Raving Loony Party). There is some more information on them at en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maunsell_Forts#Red_Sands_Fort_.28U6.29 if you were interested.
This image was taken from the splendid classic service vessel 'X-Pilot' which operates out of Queenborough on the Isle of Sheppey (see x-pilot.co.uk/) for details.

Custom built BrickArms/BrickWarriors/BrickForge/SDT/LEGO minifigure. Hazel armor cast.
The armor & helmet pieces are another one of those casts by Hazel. It`s the Colonial Marine though he kinda changed after I made the oxy mask & started to look more pilot-like. The whole mask assembly can be removed. I think pilot style figs look fantastic probably due to all the terrific headgear that is available.
A pilot boat is a type of boat used to transport maritime pilots between land and the inbound or outbound ships that they are piloting. Modern pilot boats can be from 7 metres to over 25 metres in length, built to withstand heavy seas and bumping against 100,000 ton tanker ships. They are high-powered and hence both very quick and durable purpose-built boats. They are normally painted a highly visible colour such as orange, red or yellow.
