A sculpture of Dalí's The Persistence of Memory, in front of the Dalí Universe.
Dalí Universe is a permanent exhibition of art works by the Spanish surrealist Salvador Dalí which is housed in a 3,000 square metre (32,000 square feet) suite of galleries at County Hall in London, England. It opened in 2000. Over 500 works are on display, including sculptures dating from 1935-1984, drawings, lithographs, gold and glass objects and a Dalí-inspired furniture collection. It does not feature major paintings. The exhibition was originally curated by Beniamino Levi, who worked with Dalí on the development of his sculptures.
Technically Dalí Universe is an exhibit at the County Hall Gallery, which also stages other art exhibitions, but it is much better known under its own name.
Dalí himself created the Teatro Museo in his home town of Figueres in Catalonia. There is also a Salvador Dalí Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida, and a Salvador Dalí Gallery in Pacific Palisades, California, both in the United States. Paris is home to the Espace Dali, another independent gallery devoted to the works of the surrealist artist.
Taken in week 62a of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:
The Vivitar PN2011 is a cheap point-and-shoot 35mm camera with a retractable mask to give a panoramic format. I loaded it with a roll of Kodak P3200 Tmax black and white negative film, in order to be able to use it in the rather dull late winter weather. In retrospect this was a bad idea, as the light leaks that often occur in toy cameras were made much more obvious by the very fast film, and also the grain is much more pronounced than I had expected.
The film was developed in Ilfosol 3 at 1:14 dilution and 24 deg C for 14 minutes.

While commuting between cities, I'm usually trying to depict the road trip and surrounding elements. Fifty minutes before I reach my destination, some reflections brings me memories of a surrealistic piece.

Sometimes I wonder why there are so many words for something...things, that are one and the same. To me anyways. I come from a long line of stubborn people. They are smarter though. They understand riddles better than me.
And they will probably say Persistence is the act of (being) persevering. As for stubbornness...that's you. And the mule.
Don't you just love family. By the way, I'm a goat. Not the donkey's cousin, thank you.
...heheheheh!
Taken with a Minolta Dynax 404si camera with a 19-35mm lens. The film is Rollei Retro 400S, developed in Rodinal 1:50 for 22 mins at 20 degrees.
Set on board a deep space scientific vessel called The Persistence in the year 2521, the ship arrives at the site of a collapsing star 17,000 light years from earth. While conducting a major experiment, a horrific incident occurs mutating many of the crew. As The Persistence is pulled into the gravity of the collapsing star, the ship’s computer, ‘IRIS’ wakes remaining members of the crew from cryogenic sleep – one at a time. Can you stay alive long enough to get to the engine room and save The Persistence?

“Knowing trees, I understand the meaning of patience. Knowing grass, I can appreciate persistence.”
Hal Borland quotes
At one point, this is an appropriate word to describe a persons interest. Like a grass which is being stepped and trampled, but the next morning it is back again...
I paid £1.50 for this Kodak 44a camera in a boot sale last week. I'd picked it up and examined it several weeks previously, and was tempted to buy it, as although I already have one of these, this one had a partly used film in it. I put it down again, but when it was still there later in the season, I decided to rescue it. It takes 12 square format photos on a roll of 127 film, the film in it was on exposure 5. I decided to finish it off and process it, though was not expecting to get anything out of it. I don't know how old the film was, I didn't even know until I removed it whether it was colour or black and white. It turned out to be a colour Agfa film, and I developed it in my Tetenal C41 kit, giving it longer than usual to try to compensate for its age. When I looked at the film it seemed completely blank, but I hung it up to dry anyway, as an old roll of film can come in useful at times. Once it was dry, I could see there were very faint traces of images on it, at least on the portion that I had shot, there was nothing on the first five frames, reflecting the fact that an old latent image is less stable than a recently exposed image.
After scanning and doing some fairly radical adjustments in photoshop, I was able to squeeze some images out of a couple of the shots that I took.

Taken with an Instantload Cartridge camera in week 502 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:
www.flickr.com/photos/tony_kemplen/collections/72157623113584240
The film is Fujicolor HR which expired in 1991, developed in the Tetenal C41 kit. I have several cartridges of this film, and know that it is in very poor condition, with marked loss of sensitivity.
I was really excited about this photo when I took it, but when I got home to load it onto the computer, the image file was nowhere to be found on the memory card. I was heart broken. Months later, I came across a file-rescue program and was able to pull the image off the card. Lucky me.
No HDR. Adjusted exposure and cropped in LR 3

“Vico has always had dedication and persistence in his duties. He is probably the happiest BLM employee with just some dog food and a piece of hose!” – Dave Stolts, BLM Southern Nevada Supervisory Ranger
Dave Stolts has been Vico’s handler since 2011 when Vico was brought into the BLM’s K9 program. In the six years that he has been on the job, Vico has been involved in assignments all over Nevada and the west. He has been a part of operations on public lands involving high use recreation, such as the Burning Man event, Sand Mountain, and work within the Las Vegas Valley, as well as, work assignments on the international border interdicting narcotic and human smugglers. The most important part of their duties, Stolts said, was the outreach to schools, churches and special events.
“We really feel like the face of the agency at the special events we went to,” Stolts said. “Vico is such a unique police dog and handles being petted and around crowds really well.”
Vico has the personality that many K9s don’t. He has the ability to be calm and collected and when it’s time to work he turns it on and gets the job done. One great memory Stolts has is when they were working near the International border following a group of smugglers. The law enforcement team had hiked in rough terrain all day and had decided they would head back for the night. As the team was leaving the area Vico picked up on his own, the scent of the smugglers. The rest of the team had basically called it a day but Vico never quit. They team was able to follow the smugglers trail and catch them at a highway. They ended up making an arrest. Stolts said he didn’t even signal Vico to work, but he had the sensibility to never stop.
This year Stolts has accepted a supervisory role on the Southern Nevada District. There he will be supervising up to nine Law Enforcement Rangers and felt it was time to retire Vico, Stolts will continue to keep him in his retirement.
Persistence pays off
Hello everyone.
I ran my trap on three consecutive nights from Saturday night to Monday night, something I don't do very often this time of year.
I think it is the reports of scarce migrants that have been reported up and down the Country recently and not always at coastal sites either.
Saturday night's catch featured no Macro moths at all, a trap rarity in itself! and Sunday night wasn't much better either....just two moths again.
And then last night it all went a bit weird and there were actually some moths to count (and write down) for starter's I had to rescue the moths from a puddle at the bottom of my trap and because our patio isn't quite level, the water wells up in one corner typically, in this puddle I found three Caloptilia's and a Tortrix of somekind reminiscent of Zeiraphera isertana, but it wasn't this species it was a first for me Crocidosema plebejana! now that was worth running the trap for.
I believe there are very few records of this typical coastal moth and I am only aware of John Murray's record this year. Obviously a wanderer from a coastal population or a primary immigrant.
Another moth of note was a form of Acleris hastiana that I have never recorded before.
