The popular Paphiopedilums, often abbreviated Paph, are flowering plants in the orchid family (Orchidaceae). The name Paphiopedilum is derived from Greek word paphius and pedilon, wich means shoes. The populair name for Paphiopedilum is Lady Slipper.
It contains about 80 accepted species nowadays, some of which are natural hybrids.
Paphiopedilum orchids are mostly terrestrial and sometimes grow as epiphytes plants and originate from the jungles of the Far East like India, South China, Burma, Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam, Philippenes and Indonesia.
The total orchid family is currently believed to be the second largest family of flowering plants with between 22,000 and 26,000 currently accepted species, found in 880 genera.
This picture is taken in the "Orchideeënhoeve" (Orchid Farm) in Luttelgeest, the Netherlands.
De paphiopedilum-soorten zijn zeer geliefd bij orchideeënliefhebbers wegens hun ongewone bloemvormen en omdat ze vrij eenvoudig te kweken zijn. Er zijn ongeveer 80 erkende soorten.
De totale orchideefamilie is met 22.000 en 26.000 soorten momenteel vermoedelijk de op een na grootste familie van bloeiende planten in 880 geslachten.
De botanische naam Paphiopedilum is ontleend aan Paphos, een stad op het eiland Cyprus, en van het Oud-Griekse podilon (schoen). De paphiopedilums worden daarom ook vaak venusschoentjes of vrouwenschoentjes genoemd vanwege de schoenvormige opgezwollen lip.
De paphiopedilums groeien soms epifytisch op andere planten en zijn afkomstig uit de jungles van het Verre Oosten zoals India, Zuid-China, Birma, Thailand, Maleisië, Cambodja, Vietnam, Filippijnen en Indonesië.
Deze orchidee is gefotografeerd in de Orchideeënhoeve in Luttelgeest (Flevoland, Noordoostpolder).

La Kodak No.3 Folding Pocket és una càmera de rodet de gran format produida per Eastman Kodak entre 1900 i 1915. Emprava el format 118 i fou molt popular, amb gran varietat de sub-models. Aquesta en concret és un model F, equipada amb obturador Bausch & Lomb Automat i objectiu Goerz Doppel-Anastigmat Syntor f.6,8 de 120mm. Data del 1910, pel nº de serie 626xx-R.
Aquesta càmara té una "germana gran" en la Kodak No.3A Folding Pocket, lleugerament més llarga. La podeu veure aquí: flic.kr/p/275FvJh
Un detall interessant d'aquest model en concret, si no vaig errat, es que es tracta de l'única camara que apareix a bord del Titanic durant el seu únic i fatidic viatge. Es tracta de la fotografia de la familia Odell. El jove Jack Odell porta a les mans el que estic gairebé segur és una No.3 Folding Pocket (la forma corbada a la part superior del aparell el delata). Que aquesta fotografia sobrevivis al enfonsament del Titanic (i tota la familia Odell) s'explica pel fet que embarcaren a Southampton, però desembarcaren a Queenstown (actualment Cobh), Irlanda. Un darrer detall al respecte, va. El fet que porti una lent Goerz indica que aquesta Kodak fou feta als Estats Units, però venguda al Regne Unit. I sabeu d'on em va venir? de Southampton, port de sortida del Titanic!

=============================================
This is the Kodak No.3 Folding Pocket camera, made in Rochester NY from 1900 to 1915 with quite a lot of models. It was a very popular roll film camera, using the 118 format. This one is a model F, made in 1910 (serial nº 626xx-R). It has a Bausch & Lomb Automat leaf shutter and a Goerz Doppel-Anastigmat Syntor lens, f6.8 120mm. Only cameras selled in the UK mounted a Syntor lens.
This No.3 camera has a bigger sister, the No.3A Folding Pocket: flic.kr/p/275FvJh
I've found a quite interesting link between this camera and the Titanic. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think this is the only camera shown in a picture onboard the Titanic during it's only and dramatic voyage. It appears on the hands of a boy called Jack Odell, and the top-side curve it's the key to identify this camera. Why this picture (and even the Odell family) survived the Titanic? Because they boarded the ship in Southampton, BUT disembaked in Queenstown (now Cobh), Ireland. And even a more closed link. I bought this camera in eBay, to someone in Southampton. Just an "evil" coincidence, I presume...

The Papal Basilica of St. Peter in the Vatican (Italian: Basilica Papale di San Pietro in Vaticano), or simply St. Peter's Basilica (Latin: Basilica Sancti Petri), is an Italian Renaissance church in Vatican City, the papal enclave within the city of Rome.
Designed principally by Donato Bramante, Michelangelo, Carlo Maderno and Gian Lorenzo Bernini, St. Peter's is the most renowned work of Renaissance architecture and the largest church in the world. While it is neither the mother church of the Catholic Church nor the cathedral of the Diocese of Rome, St. Peter's is regarded as one of the holiest Catholic shrines. It has been described as "holding a unique position in the Christian world" and as "the greatest of all churches of Christendom".
Catholic tradition holds that the Basilica is the burial site of Saint Peter, chief among Jesus's Apostles and also the first Bishop of Rome. Saint Peter's tomb is supposedly directly below the high altar of the Basilica. For this reason, many Popes have been interred at St. Peter's since the Early Christian period, and there has been a church on this site since the time of the Roman emperor Constantine the Great. Construction of the present basilica, which would replace Old St. Peter's Basilica from the 4th century AD, began on 18 April 1506 and was completed on 18 November 1626.
St. Peter's is famous as a place of pilgrimage and for its liturgical functions. The Pope presides at a number of liturgies throughout the year, drawing audiences of 15,000 to over 80,000 people, either within the Basilica or the adjoining St. Peter's Square. St. Peter's has many historical associations, with the Early Christian Church, the Papacy, the Protestant Reformation and Catholic Counter-reformation and numerous artists, especially Michelangelo. As a work of architecture, it is regarded as the greatest building of its age. St. Peter's is one of the four churches in the world that hold the rank of Major Basilica, all four of which are in Rome. Contrary to popular misconception, it is not a cathedral because it is not the seat of a bishop; the Cathedra of the Pope as Bishop of Rome is in the Archbasilica of St. John Lateran.
