A view of Copabacana, the most famous brazilian beach, from Leme.
Copacabana is a borough located in the southern zone of the city Rio de Janeiro, famous for its 4 km beach.
The district was originally called Sacopenapã until the mid-18th century. It was renamed after the construction of a chapel holding a replica of the Virgin of Copacabana, the patron saint of Bolivia. It was incorporated into the city on July 6, 1892.
Copacabana begins at Princesa Isabel Avenue and ends at Posto Seis (lifeguard watchtower Six) near the Forte de Copacabana (Fort Copacabana). Beyond Copacabana, there is the small Arpoador beach, followed by the famous borough of Ipanema.
According to Riotur, the Tourism Secretariat of Rio de Janeiro, there are 63 hotels and 10 hostels in Copacabana.
Just a typical postcard shot, one of those pictures that's nothing special, but you just got to have it. Unfortunately the cloud covered Mt. Fuji during the 15 minutes allotted time slot at this look out point.
The town name of Malpas is derived from french Mal=bad pas=way; bad/poor way/passage. It is situated not too far from the western side of the county of Cheshire.
Cheshire's name was originally derived from an early name for Chester, and was first recorded as Legeceasterscir in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles, meaning the shire of the city of legions. Although the name first appears in 980, it is thought that the county was created by Edward the Elder around 920. In the Domesday Book, Chester was recorded as having the name Cestrescir (Chestershire), derived from the name for Chester at the time.

Finally some clearer skies and a gentle breeze instead of clouds and fierce wind.
The theme of the sunset tonight was sunbeams. These images were captured about 20 minutes before sunset and I'm glad I grabbed these since distant clouds obscured the actual sunset. The tidal pools in the foreground usually aren't there but the intense winds over the last couple of days made the usually tranquil Gulf into a turbulent sea with higher than normal tides.

Thanks for looking. I appreciate feedback.
Ainda me perguntam porque eu quis vir pra cá trabalhar, foto da sessão pra um trabalho.
"Quando o sol se põe
Vem o farol
Iluminar as águas da Bahia
No Farol da Barra, o encontro é pouco
A conversa é curta, tudo é tão rápido como
se furta
Como a luz bate nas águas
Como tudo que se passa
Com tanto cabeludo, com tanto pôr-do-sol
Bem cabia uma profecia: até o ano 2000,
O Farol além do pôr-do-sol
será o pôr-do-som
Onde verás uma realejo, onde verás um violão"

MALIGNE LAKE
48 km. (28.8 mi.) S.E. of Jasper townsite
Located in the majestic Maligne Valley, this exquisite lake is the second largest glacier-fed lake in the world, stretching 22 km. (14 mi.). A one-and-a-half hour boat cruise will take you past glacier-studded mountain peaks to world-famous Spirit Island
This truly unique and most charming Grade II listed cottage stands in possibly the most idyllic and desirable location on the Northumberland coast. Set in a superb and secluded position on the cliff edge with a sandy cove below, it commands panoramic coastal views from every window. The majestic ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle can be seen in the north, whilst to the south there are distant views of Coquet Island. The coastline in this region is characterised by a mixture of rocky inlets and lovely sandy beaches with attractive walks along the cliff tops. A 14 mile coastal footpath between Beadnell and Alnmouth passes nearby providing the opportunity of walking through some of the most outstanding coastal scenery in the country, this part of the Heritage Coast is designated an "Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty" as well as being a "Site of Special Scientific Interest". The Coast and Castles cycle route passes nearby. The Bathing House is approached by a 400 metre private track and is ideal for a family holiday or for those seeking a secluded, romantic coastal location. It was built in the early 19th century by the 2nd Earl Grey who was the Prime Minister responsible for the passing of the Great Reform Bill of 1832 and whose monument stands at the top of Grey Street in Newcastle upon Tyne. He had 16 children and the house was built specifically for the family to go bathing.
I found this post card in a box of old photos and ephemera.
It seems there were more than 51 Tuckers made and 3 of them ended up in Elgin Park!
I'll keep you posted on this developing story.

Once again, my favorite tree. It was taken on a beautiful sunny day. The sky was blue, and the air was crisp. I thought I'd like to remember my tree on that moment. But my memory, with time, will probably look much like this.
I used to live down the street from here. And part of it was chasing 5 Fulton (bus that goes downtown) to go to work. Hmmm, I wonder why the memory of chasing the bus sticks out. I could think of better and happier memories but I love the Bus chasing memory best. LOL

Yes, this is another spot in San Francisco that has been photographed a million times.

110 year old camera, 51 year old film, 16 month old home made developer.
Post Card format 3 1/4 x 5 1/2 inch negative. The picture is not important, this is a test of exposure and development of this old film from 1971. Kodak RAR 2490 rapid action film box speed about ISO 64. Shot at ISO 6 from Ansco 1912 #3A folding camera. Developed in 18 month old Kalogen developer about 1:90 dilution, stand developed for 60 minutes. Water stop, fixed with Ilford Rapid 1:4 for 4 minutes. All at about 70 degrees F.
Kalogen was originally a replacement for Rodinal in/during/after the first world war when Rodinal was not available in the US/UK. Instead of para-aminophenol as the primary developer, it is essentially synthesized from the metol in the formula. (I'm finding it to be more active than Rodinal in comparable dilutions)
Distilled water (50°C) .................. 750 ml
Metol ....................................... 13.5 g
Sodium sulfite (anhy) ................... 180 g
Hydroquinone ............................. 53.0 g
Sodium hydroxide ........................ 35.0 g
Potassium bromide ....................... 5.0 g
Benzotriazole, 1% ........................ 80.0 ml
Distilled water to make ................. 1.0 l
Obvious A LOT of chemistry but that is because it is a concentration. Rodinal is essentially para-aminophenol, Sodium sulfite and sodium hydroxide. So this is only slightly more complex.
Weigh out the Metol and sulfite. Dissolve a pinch of the sulfite in the water before adding the Metol. Dissolve the other ingredients in the order given. A precipitate will form upon the addition of the hydroquinone which will dissolve upon the addition of the sodium hydroxide.
Transfer the solution to a 1 liter glass bottle, stopper and allow it to stand for 2 to 3 days. A small amount of impurities will precipitate out and the solution will become lighter in color. Filter the solution and transfer it to several small (2 to 4 ounce) glass bottles and label. When prepared correctly the solution will be a clear pinkish tan color. (My first batch is slightly yellow clear and there is a mild deposit on the bottom. I shake it before I use it.)
After 18 months mine is still a bright straw yellow color.
When stored in nearly full and tightly capped small bottles, the stock solution will keep for months at room temperature. Should any crystals form due to storage at low temperature, they may be redissolved by warming and shaking the bottle.
I don't often see chickens, but this little honey was running around a local barn. I popped on five textures. Four from skeletal mess and I can remember where I got that post card texture. I downloaded it years ago...
....little man was not feeling well....but because of the excitment - people around him - he wants to come out and play....
