Sgt. Richard R. Kirkland Memorial by Vicenç Feliú

2 5

The Angel of Marye's Heights. Fredericksburg Battlefield, Fredericksburg, Virginia.

The events surrounding the story of The Angel of Marye's Heights took place at the first battle of Fredericksburg, VA in December 1862. The Union forces under General Ambrose E. Burnside planned to attack Richmond by way of Fredericksburg, Virginia. Frustrating delays in the Union forces allowed General Robert E. Lee to move General Longstreet's Corps, with General J. B. Kershaw's Brigade, directly into Burnside's planned path of attack. General Longstreet was then joined on his right by General "Stonewall" Jackson's Corps. Kershaw's Brigade was directly in the path of the Union Army gathered across the Rappahannock River, just outside Fredericksburg, Virginia. A young South Carolinian, Sergeant Richard Kirkland and his Company of the 2nd South Carolina were part of Kershaw's Brigade.

Burnside continued to recklessly throw divisions of Union soldiers across 400 yards of open field, under murderous massed artillery and musket fire. Sergeant Kirkland was among a section of riflemen six ranks deep, protected by a stone wall. The Confederates rained musket fire down on the advancing enemy soldiers, and by day's end nearly 6,300 dead or wounded Union soldiers lay along the front of the stone wall. That night the temperature dropped and snow fell over the field of dead and wounded soldiers.

By the next morning, Kirkland could no longer stand the cries of the wounded soldiers lying on the snow-covered ground, and in near-zero temperatures. He sought permission to provide some help to the wounded. Kirkland gathered up as many canteens of water as he could find, then jumped the stone wall and ran to the first wounded soldier he could reach. As he ran, rifle fire from Union sharpshooters threatened the good Samaritan. When it became obvious that his purpose was a mission of mercy, a Union officer shouted, "Cease fire! Don't shoot that man, he is too brave to die." Throughout the morning the young South Carolinian made trips back and forth from water well to wounded soldier, trying to provide some measure of comfort. Both Union and Confederate soldiers looked on with awe. It is not known how many men Kirkland was able to help, but those he helped and those who witnessed his act never forgot Sergeant Richard Kirkland of the 2nd Carolina. In fact, they immortalized him as "The Angel of Marye's Heights."

He later fought at Gettysburg were he was promoted to Lieutenant and were he witnessed the reversal of Confederate hopes.

The epilogue to the story is a sad one. Nine months later, on September 20, 1863, Richard R. Kirkland was mortally wounded at the Battle of Chickamauga, Tennessee. His body lies under the spreading trees in the Quaker cemetery in Camden, South Carolina. A large headstone reads, "Richard Kirkland, C.S.A. At Fredericksburg he risked his life to carry water to wounded and dying enemies, and at the Battle of Chickamauga laid down that life for his country. 1843-1863."

Lieutenant Richard Kirkland was 19 years old at the moment of his death.

What Earthquake by Brian Pedlar

107 91

First I would like to express my sincere thanks for all the messages and concern from people across the world who have contacted us regarding the reported earthquake that has hit Cornwall in the last 24 hours.

Very kind of you Lindsey and Sharon😂😂😂

Amongst the concerns shown may I immediately allay your fears and inform you Sharp’s Brewery is intact and fully operational, phew.🍻🍻🍻

Yes the TV and press have reported an earthquake shook West Cornwall measuring 2.2 magnitude, some residents reported hearing a sound like thunder, Radio Pasty presenter Rebeca Wills, from Helston added “There was a low rumble and there was like a sonic boom”, if only she knew.😉

However when Horace and Hoof tiptoed across the breakfast room floor this morning with singed eyebrows, tails, and professor style looks on their faces the game was up.😉

You see mains electricity had always been low on the agenda here in Cornwall, we have always prioritised free range alcohol, so we could be as happy as pigs in you know what. 🐷🍻🍻🍻

However one night there was a meeting held by many of the local village elders and they came to the conclusion we needed these services on demand, or on tap so to speak.⚡️⚡️⚡️💡💡💡

So under the cover of darkness Hoof and Horace set off down to Poldhu Cove near Mullion quipped with a set of jump leads and a few jubilee clips.🔌🔌🔌🔦🔦🔦

As this is a fair distance from where we live H & H had to stop halfway to take on alcohol, so the boys went into a pub, Hoof had the jump leads hanging around his neck, the bar man looked at Hoof and said “don’t start anything”.🍷🍷🍷

The boys had a few games of spoof with the locals as they always do, then following a few jokes and a healthy exchange of banter Hoof packed the cash they had relieved the locals of into his saddle bags and they were on their way again.💷💷💷

H & H rocked up at Poldhu Cove an area they had staked out on several previous occasions, and had soon uncovered the transatlantic power cable that comes in there.⚡️⚡️⚡️

If you remember Marconi made his first transatlantic signal from here.📻

So in no time the boys had connected the jump leads to the T A cable and into a near by sub station and no sooner than you could say Thomas Edison and there was an almighty flash followed by a big bang, unfortunately Horace had connected the positive lead to the negative cable, he had forgotten to put on his little reading glasses and white coat like a mini professor (thank you Gill).👓

Come on just a simple mistake, the leads and connections were quickly swapped over and we were good to go and the whole of Cornwall had mains electricity , and not an earthquake💡💡💡🔧🔨🔩🍻🍻🍻🐎🐷😂😂😂

Thank you all so much for viewing my images, the comments you leave are always so appreciated.

I trust you all have a lovely weekend irrespective of the weather, I will leave you with this thought, an old charecter in the village use to say “There is no such thing as bad weather, it is being inappropriately dressed”

🍻🍻🍻🍷🍷🍷🐎🐷😎😂😂😂

I was working on two of my photographic projects, then Carnival arrived, I put aside what I had done up until then, and so I created this group of photographs; they are shots taken during the Carnival which took place in Taormina center (Taormina alta) and in Trappitello (fraction of Taormina, the plain part of Taormina, located towards the hinterland; there is also Taormina seaside, but this part is not was affected by the Carnival). Carnival, from a photographic point of view, has always interested me not for its allegorical floats, not for its beautiful or refined masks, but for the people who find themselves "behind the masks", for their emotions, the their ability to have fun, to uninhibit themselves, even in front of the camera. I photographed a detail of the float dedicated to the mayor of Taormina, Cateno De Luca, I photographed boys and girls from the masked groups who paraded through the city streets, as well as boys and girls not belonging to any group, who had fun with clothes invented for the 'occasion; despite having placed heterogeneous photographs, I mostly followed a theme that refers to a work by Andy Warhol, an iconic figure of Pop Art as well as being one of the most important artists of the 20th century, ideally linking myself for its creation to the allegorical float of Pop Art of Taormina.

I conclude, I dedicate this work to the flicker-friend White Angel, hoping to please her.

……………….

Stavo lavorando a due miei progetti fotografici, poi è arrivato il Carnevale, ho messo da parte quanto avevo fino ad allora fatto, ed ho così realizzato questo gruppo di fotografie; sono scatti realizzati durante il Carnevale che si è svolto a Taormina centro (Taormina alta) ed a Trappitello (frazione di Taormina, la parte in pianura di Taormina, sita verso l’entroterra; c’è anche Taormina mare, ma questa parte non è stata interessata dal Carnevale). Il Carnevale, dal punto di vista fotografico, mi ha sempre interessato non per i suoi carri allegorici, non per le sue maschere belle o ricercate che siano, ma per le persone che si trovano “dietro le maschere”, per le loro emozioni, la loro capacità di divertirsi, di disinibirsi, anche davanti la macchina fotografica. Ho fotografato un dettaglio del carro dedicato al sindaco di Taormina, Cateno De Luca, ho fotografato ragazzi e ragazze dei gruppi in maschera che sfilavano per le vie cittadine, come ragazzi e ragazze non appartenenti a nessun gruppo, che si divertivano con vestiti inventati per l’occasione; pur avendo messo fotografie eterogenee, ho seguito maggiormente un tema che fa riferimento ad un lavoro di Andy Warhol, figura iconica della Pop Art oltre che essere uno dei più importanti artisti del XX secolo, agganciandomi idealmente per la sua realizzazione, al carro allegorico della Pop Art di Taormina.

Concludo, dedico questo lavoro alla flicker-friend White Angel, sperando di farle cosa gradita.

“You will learn the hard way that on the long journey of life you will encounter many masks and few faces“

“Imparerai a tue spese che nel lungo tragitto della vita incontrerai tante maschere e pochi volti.”

Luigi Pirandello

I was working on two of my photographic projects, then Carnival arrived, I put aside what I had done up until then, and so I created this group of photographs; they are shots taken during the Carnival which took place in Taormina center (Taormina alta) and in Trappitello (fraction of Taormina, the plain part of Taormina, located towards the hinterland; there is also Taormina seaside, but this part is not was affected by the Carnival). Carnival, from a photographic point of view, has always interested me not for its allegorical floats, not for its beautiful or refined masks, but for the people who find themselves "behind the masks", for their emotions, the their ability to have fun, to uninhibit themselves, even in front of the camera. I photographed a detail of the float dedicated to the mayor of Taormina, Cateno De Luca, I photographed boys and girls from the masked groups who paraded through the city streets, as well as boys and girls not belonging to any group, who had fun with clothes invented for the 'occasion; despite having placed heterogeneous photographs, I mostly followed a theme that refers to a work by Andy Warhol, an iconic figure of Pop Art as well as being one of the most important artists of the 20th century, ideally linking myself for its creation to the allegorical float of Pop Art of Taormina.

I conclude, I dedicate this work to the flicker-friend White Angel, hoping to please her.

……………….

Stavo lavorando a due miei progetti fotografici, poi è arrivato il Carnevale, ho messo da parte quanto avevo fino ad allora fatto, ed ho così realizzato questo gruppo di fotografie; sono scatti realizzati durante il Carnevale che si è svolto a Taormina centro (Taormina alta) ed a Trappitello (frazione di Taormina, la parte in pianura di Taormina, sita verso l’entroterra; c’è anche Taormina mare, ma questa parte non è stata interessata dal Carnevale). Il Carnevale, dal punto di vista fotografico, mi ha sempre interessato non per i suoi carri allegorici, non per le sue maschere belle o ricercate che siano, ma per le persone che si trovano “dietro le maschere”, per le loro emozioni, la loro capacità di divertirsi, di disinibirsi, anche davanti la macchina fotografica. Ho fotografato un dettaglio del carro dedicato al sindaco di Taormina, Cateno De Luca, ho fotografato ragazzi e ragazze dei gruppi in maschera che sfilavano per le vie cittadine, come ragazzi e ragazze non appartenenti a nessun gruppo, che si divertivano con vestiti inventati per l’occasione; pur avendo messo fotografie eterogenee, ho seguito maggiormente un tema che fa riferimento ad un lavoro di Andy Warhol, figura iconica della Pop Art oltre che essere uno dei più importanti artisti del XX secolo, agganciandomi idealmente per la sua realizzazione, al carro allegorico della Pop Art di Taormina.

Concludo, dedico questo lavoro alla flicker-friend White Angel, sperando di farle cosa gradita.

You are immortal, you are in the Light, always in our hearts.

This compo is a collaboration between the professional photographer ©Marchesini (his courtesy for the portrait shot some years ago) & a light painting background with violin keys recently made on St. Martin Day (White Angel). I painted in the air at night with the help of my camera & hands, some candels & lanterns.

Omaha Union Station.

Omaha Union Station (1931) was one of the first Art Deco train stations in the United States. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1971, the Station was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2016 (the designation noted that the Station "is one of the most distinctive and complete examples of Art Deco architecture in the nation. . . [and] outstandingly expresses the style’s innovative and diverse surface ornamentation inspired by the machine age.") See here for more on the station's architecture and history.

Omaha Union Station closed for rail service in the 1970s when a new Amtrak station opened nearby. The Station now houses the Durham Museum. As noted on the museum's website, the Durham showcases everything from "permanent exhibits highlighting the history of Omaha and its surrounding regions, to impressive traveling exhibitions from our national partners such as the Smithsonian Institution, the National Archives, the Library of Congress and the Field Museum."
