Christian art is art produced in an attempt to illustrate, supplement and portray in tangible form the principles of Christianity. Virtually all Christian groupings use or have used art to some extent. The prominence of art and the media, style, and representations change; however, the unifying theme is ultimately the representation of the life and times of Jesus and in some cases the Old Testament. Depictions of saints are also common, especially in Anglicanism, Roman Catholicism, and Eastern Orthodoxy.

Scanning negatives from 'first principles' ; PHOTAX test negative / the negative was illuminated by simply laying it flat on a light box, then photographed with a Canon G9 power shot digital camera (camera held rigid on a copy stand) The image was uploaded onto an iPad mini and then edited on the iPad using the Snap Seed application : I reversed the image from negative to positive (seen here) by using the 'curves' facility of the Snap Seed app. Considering the primitive nature of the scanning method it's a reasonable result and offers a way to get negative images onto internet media sites (such as Flickr).
The 1941 Chrysler Thunderbird
Walter P. Chrysler built his company on the principles of engineering excellence and innovation, which had distinguished his career in the 19th century railroads, at Buick and Willys Overland.
The first Chrysler featured an efficient and powerful high compression six-cylinder engine, force-feed lubrication, tubular front axle and four-wheel hydraulic brakes, refinements then unprecedented in series production automobiles at the time.
The success of these and other innovations in 1934 culminated in Chrysler’s introduction of the Airflow, a streamlined, unit body breakthrough in automobile design.
Its timing could hardly have been worse.
Mired in the dashed expectations of the depression, customers were loath to experiment with something so new and intuitively untried and risky.
Sales plummeted and Chrysler quickly reverted to making more conventional looking automobiles.
Their mistake may largely be traced to springing the dramatically different Airflow with its distinctive appearance upon an unprepared audience.
But one remained immediately recognizable: The Copper Car. It was built by LeBaron with a copper hardtop, sill trim and bumpers. It survives in this unique, distinctive configuration today.
After its round of appearances it was sold to actor Bruce Cabot (First Mate Jack Driscoll in King Kong among many other roles).
In 1954 its engine was replaced by a Chrysler Hemi V-8.
It was acquired by the Harrahs Collection in 1960 and was bought during its 1985 dispersal auction by the most recent owner who two decades later commissioned a complete restoration by Chris Kidds Tired Iron Works.
During restoration the original Spitfire Eight engine was returned to its home under the Thunderbolts hood along with a dual carburetor induction system.
The drive system powering the retractable hardtop was re-engineered for smooth, reliable operation.
Completed in 2009 it debuted at the Amelia Island Concours d' Elegance where it won the Camille Jenatzy Award for the Most Audacious Exterior, then took third in class at the Pebble Beach Concours d' Elegance in August and a class win (scoring 100 points) at the Newport Beach Concours at the St. Regis Resort.
Everything about this car, as its recent 100 point score confirms, is to the highest standards of materials, craftsmanship, historical accuracy, fit, finish and function.
A dramatic statement of vision and innovation, with its brilliant copper hardtop and trim it is one of a kind, a dramatic statement of leadership in engineering, design and creativity in the 1940s, and no less a statement today.

MG SV-R at Curborough in 2003
Designed by Peter Stevens of McLaren F1 fame it uses similar race car principles with a finely tuned chassis and carbon fibre body with Integral roll cage, they were constructed in the heartland of the Italian Super Car Industry "Modena" then shipped back to the UK for final completion by MG at their approved Midlands factory suppliers QCR Motors, XK Engineering and KC Ryan.
MG chose the acclaimed, bullet proof, tried and tested Ford SVT 4.6 V8 320bhp and 301lb engine as used in the Mustang to power the MG with a 5 Speed Manual Tremec Gearbox and Dana Limited Slip Differential. Brembo took care of the Braking with Bosch ABS and a switchable Ford traction control is also incorporated. Normal creature comforts feature, including Air Conditioning, Electric Seats, Adjustable Steering Column, Electric Windows and Door Mirrors. MG race heritage inspired fitment of a unique 3 point inertia seat belts which locks at the flick of a switch!
There is Performance aplenty on tap, Indeed the MG Power SV topped 200mph in testing at Nardo and Ex Formula 1 Drive Mark Blundell said " The MG XPower SV is aggressive and raw and at the same time stylish and refined. I have driven many of the worlds top sports cars and this car is in the same league from the unique sound of the exhaust to the precision steering this car has all the qualities I look for in a sports car "
The Directors of MG Sport & Racing said the the MG XPower combines high reserves of power and motor racing features and it is a true race car which has been built for the road. Its the ultimate MG!
Autocar road test stated ..... "The brakes are sensational; 355mm and 310mm cross-drilled and ventilated Brembo discs that give a crisp, immediate response and don't go off, neither on the road nor on the track.
The ride is also remarkably fluid for a car with such a hard-core billing, helped by those 18-inch rims with 40-profile Michelin Pilot Sports. But if you want a car to ride and handle well, double wishbones attached to a stiff, light chassis are about the best way to start. You can feel how rigid the chassis is on the road and feel the suspension being allowed to work the way it should. The ride is supple and quiet without being disconnected, and the steering is quick and accurate in its response without being in any way nervous.
There's plenty of feel, too, helped by the thin-rimmed Momo wheel (not a standard item - production versions getting a better-finished four-spoker), and the net result is that you can guide this broad bruiser down tight roads with far greater pace and confidence than its size suggests. The only aspect of the chassis to be exposed on the road is the damping; a series of undulations taken at sufficient speed will eventually get the back end to move and make you lift. But otherwise, this is a well-judged package for British roads; a proper and ballsy driver's machine, very much in the traditional sense"

Message me on facebook for a free review copy!

The Golden Ratio informs a lot of my art and photographic composition. The Golden Ratio also informs the design of the golden revolver on all the swimsuits and lingerie, as well as the 45surf logo! Not so long ago, I came up with the Golden Ratio Principle which describes why The Golden Ratio is so beautiful.
The Golden Number Ratio Principle: Dr. E’s Golden Ratio Principle: The golden ratio exalts beauty because the number is a characteristic of the mathematically and physically most efficient manners of growth and distribution, on both evolutionary and purely physical levels. The golden ratio ensures that the proportions and structure of that which came before provide the proportions and structure of that which comes after. Robust, ordered growth is naturally associated with health and beauty, and thus we evolved to perceive the golden ratio harmonies as inherently beautiful, as we saw and felt their presence in all vital growth and life—in the salient features and proportions of humans and nature alike, from the distribution of our facial features and bones to the arrangements of petals, leaves, and sunflowers seeds. As ratios between Fibonacci Numbers offer the closest whole-number approximations to the golden ratio, and as seeds, cells, leaves, bones, and other physical entities appear in whole numbers, the Fibonacci Numbers oft appear in nature’s elements as “growth’s numbers.” From the dawn of time, humanity sought to salute their gods in art and temples exalting the same proportion by which all their vital sustenance and they themselves had been created—the golden ratio.

Millbrook, New York
Reference number: 100004333
Innisfree is a public garden of approximately 200 acres, blending Japanese, Chinese, Modern, and ecological design principles in Millbrook, a rural area roughly in the center of Dutchess County, New York. Innisfree’s distinctive sloping, rocky landscape, which forms the literal and visual foundation for the garden, is set within a natural bowl wrapping around the 40-acre Tyrrel Lake. This bowl, with no other signs of human intervention visible beyond the garden, creates a profound sense of intimacy and privacy at Innisfree that is one of its defining characteristics. A product of postwar ideas in American landscape architecture, Innisfree merges the essence of Modernist and Romantic ideas with traditional Chinese and Japanese garden design principles in a form that evolved through subtle, sculptural handling of the site and slow, science-based manipulation of its ecology. The result is a distinctly American stroll garden organized around placemaking techniques used in ancient Chinese villa gardens and described as “cup gardens.”
Innisfree, one of the largest intact modern designed landscapes in America, is the masterwork of Lester Collins (1914-1993), a seminal figure in American twentieth century landscape architecture. Lester Collins, fellow of the American Society of Landscape Architects, was one of the most sought-after designers and influential educators of his generation. Innisfree’s design reflects the philosophies and practices that guided Collins’s approach throughout his career, integrates innovative, sometimes truly groundbreaking horticultural and environmental engineering practices, and embodies the distinctive characteristics of postwar Modernist landscape architecture.
Innisfree began as the private estate of Walter and Marion Beck, who started initial work on the garden during the early 1930s. Starting in 1938, they continued its development in collaboration with and under the direction of Lester Collins. In 1960, following the deaths of the Becks and pursuant to their wishes, Collins transformed Innisfree from a private estate garden into a substantially larger, more nuanced public garden. He ran the public
garden while continuing to gradually develop and transform the landscape until his death in 1993.
Innisfree demonstrates Collins’s focus on the experience of people in the landscape; his ability to respond adroitly to the particularities of site and program; his approach and aesthetics as a Modernist; his scholarly understanding of landscape history, particularly of Romantic, Chinese, and Japanese gardens; and his innovative use of scientific and engineering principles to develop an environmentally and economically sustainable landscape. Innisfree has long been a mecca for designers from all over the world and it is now attracting similar attention from the global horticultural
community.
The primary features of Innisfree’s design are its principal cup gardens (loosely understood as garden rooms), Tyrrel Lake, and the Lake Path. Collins used the unifying features of the lake and lake path to integrate the many cup gardens into one dynamic experience in the natural landscape. The cup gardens vary in form, scale, and materials. One is an organically shaped meadow bisected by a wildly meandering stream and dotted with sculptural rocks and specimen trees. Another is a bog garden that has been carefully but lightly managed so that a new plant community emerged to play a particular aesthetic role. One more still is an elaborate complex of rock terraces stepping down a slope, each with its own vocabulary of design, materials, and mood.
Throughout the garden, there are themes and motifs that recur in varied forms. There is a dynamic tension between what appears to be natural and what appears to be cultivated. At a macro scale, this is evidenced by the entirety of the garden itself emerging from apparent wooded wilderness. Undulating, almost surreal natural topography is echoed in the rounded forms of clipped trees and constructed berms. Tall, straight pine trunks are mirrored in a 60’ high fountain jet. Naturalistic bogs are discreetly cultivated while areas that look like traditional planted beds are allowed to evolve and change like native plant communities.
While there are some exceptional horticultural specimens at Innisfree, the vast majority of the plants are native or naturalized. Instead of labor-intensive maintenance to strictly adhere to a fixed planting plan, plants are encouraged to find locations where they thrive just as they do in the wild and then gently edited for aesthetics. Sometimes this is achieved simply by allowing plants to self-sow; sometimes by sowing seed or moving plants in from elsewhere on site to increase a successful population; sometimes by limited hybridization to develop strains that are more ideally suited to specific local conditions. As a result, the overall plantings at Innisfree have an unstudied visual character punctuated by a handful of carefully placed, carefully sculpted trees.
There is also a deliberate choreographing of human perceptual experiences throughout Innisfree. Collins paid particular attention to these ideas. Scale ranges from massive to intimate. Spaces are open and bright, or tight and shadowy. Surfaces vary in material, texture, slope, and sound. Water changes form, scale, and sound. Design and planting details are dense or spare.
Another important motif at Innisfree is sculptural landforms. Collins began to clear trees to reveal the undulating glacial landforms. Collins felt that “land shapes, both natural and man-made…separate but also knit together sequences of cup gardens. Just like the sculptural rocks, these land forms are permanent design features in the garden, for they do not grow and their health is not subject to vagaries.” In the 1970s and early 1980s, Collins created dramatic berms in the garden to echo and emphasize the natural landforms.
In the nearly 70 years since Innisfree opened to the public, the garden has delighted and captured the imagination of experts and non-experts alike. Garden lovers, landscape writers and critics have sought to capture the unique aesthetic qualities and unusual design sophistication of Innisfree in various descriptive terms.

1.Squash and Stretch – The point of this principle is to exaggerate normal motions of life, even though they might not get noticed by the audience, in order to give a nice flow to the scene. Squash shows the action of gravity on an object, and stretch gives the impression of forces acting upon it. During these motions however, it is important for the character/object to maintain its original volume.
2.Anticipation – Anticipation prepares the viewer for a future action that is about to happen in the scene. It is a great way of adding character to the animation and making a motion more expressive.
3.Staging – Staging is all about guiding the audience’s attention during a scene. This requires good planning regarding the importance of certain objects or characters in the animation. It must be clear where the main action is taking place, and staging can be a great way of achieving the perfect mood of the scene. The positioning of the characters will express the relationship between them, and accentuate their feelings.
4.Straight ahead action and Pose to Pose – This refers to two different types of drawing techniques for animation. Straight ahead action means drawing every frame of an animation from beginning to end, while pose to pose indicates drawing all the necessary key frames and filling in all the in-betweens later on. Both techniques work great when combined. Straight ahead action produces fluid motion while pose to pose allows a better control of the composition of a scene.
5.Follow through and Overlapping Action – Both techniques allow for a more realistic movement of the character. The idea behind them is that each body part will move individually, and at different rates, even after the character has stopped the action. This can be done using the “drag” technique, in which the character starts moving but his body parts take a few frames to catch up. If the follow through is exaggerated, this will produce a comical effect on the character. No character should ever be completely still. Even breathing will produce a slight movement of the torso and overlapping action of other body parts.
6.Slow in Slow out – This principle refers to the fact that the body needs time to accelerate or slow down, and this is portrayed in animation by drawing more frames towards the start and the end of a movement. Therefore the extreme poses are emphasized and it gives a more realistic feel to the animation.
7.Arcs – The natural movement of limbs will always have an arched trajectory, and this is important when a character is moving their arms or legs, when they’re about to throw an object, etc. This is achieved by simply rotating the base joints in 3D animation. An exception to this principle is mechanical movement, which usually follows straight lines. Arcs can be drawn on the paper when sketching key frames, to better imply the movement.
8.Secondary Action – Adding secondary actions helps emphasize the main action of the scene, and generally maintain a greater sense of realism. Secondary actions need to be subtle and not draw attention away from the most important action of the scene. During dramatic scenes, secondary actions will most probably go unnoticed and therefore it’s a good idea to include them only at the start and the end of the important moment, rather than in between.
9.Timing and Spacing – Timing means the number of frames drawn for a certain action, and determines the speed of the movement. This principle is important for illustrating the weight of objects, as they will react differently to physical forces. Timing can help express a characters emotions and mood, showing how their personality reacts in different situations
10.Exaggeration – This principle is important when it comes to animation, because trying to imitate reality when it comes to movement will make any cartoon look too static and dull. Exaggeration means remaining true to reality but presenting it in a more extreme form. This is done by altering the appearance of a character, or overdoing actions. There needs to be a balance however between exaggeration and realistic movement, as the viewer can get overwhelmed and confused by too much movement happening on the screen.
11.Poses – Any animator needs to master posing a character. From getting the right line of action to flow lines, a pose needs to be solid and clear. A character’s pose will always be intense, will express exactly what they are feeling in that moment, and will even help in anticipating their next move. A good pose involves good weight distribution as well as planned staging, which will create a truly interesting character to watch.
12.Appeal – Appealing to the audience is very important for a character or animation. As long as a scene is simple to understand but expressive at the same time, it should create a unique experience for the viewer. An animation must be balanced when it comes to simplicity or complexity, in order to be easier to understand. A good tip is to avoid symmetry, as the viewer tends to find asymmetry more interesting and therefore more appealing.

Historical – International Nuclear Safety Group (INSAG)
Dr. Richard Meserve, Head of the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and President of the Carnegie Institution announced the newly constituted International Nuclear Safety Group (INSAG), formed with experts from 15 countries at a press briefing held at the Agency headquarters in Vienna, Austria, on 26 March 2004. INSAG would provide advice and guidance on safety approaches, policies and principles at nuclear power plants and other nuclear facilities. The IAEA will serve as the group’s secretariat, under the office of Ken Brockman, Director of the IAEA Division of Nuclear Installation Safety. Far right, Peter Rickwood, IAEA Press Officer, Division of Public Information.
INSAG's scope of work includes examining - and sharing experience and information about - fundamental safety issues, and current and emerging important matters relevant to the safety of nuclear power plants, research reactors, and other nuclear fuel cycle facilities. Issues of nuclear security will be addressed insofar as they relate to safety at these installations.
The group - which was newly formed at the request of IAEA Director General Mohamed ElBaradei - held its inaugural meeting at the IAEA in late October 2003, and held additional meetings this week. Meetings are planned twice a year, with the next scheduled in Vienna this November. Members of the group are from Canada, France, Finland, Russian Federation, Spain, Germany, Brazil, United Kingdom, United States, South Africa, Republic of Korea, Japan, Hungary, India, China, and the NEA/OECD.

In 1960, following the deaths of the Becks and pursuant to their wishes, Collins transformed Innisfree from a private estate garden into a substantially larger, more nuanced public garden. He ran the public
garden while continuing to gradually develop and transform the landscape until his death in 1993.
Innisfree demonstrates Collins’s focus on the experience of people in the landscape; his ability to respond adroitly to the particularities of site and program; his approach and aesthetics as a Modernist; his scholarly understanding of landscape history, particularly of Romantic, Chinese, and Japanese gardens; and his innovative use of scientific and engineering principles to develop an environmentally and economically sustainable landscape. Innisfree has long been a mecca for designers from all over the world and it is now attracting similar attention from the global horticultural
community.
The primary features of Innisfree’s design are its principal cup gardens (loosely understood as garden rooms), Tyrrel Lake, and the Lake Path. Collins used the unifying features of the lake and lake path to integrate the many cup gardens into one dynamic experience in the natural landscape. The cup gardens vary in form, scale, and materials. One is an organically shaped meadow bisected by a wildly meandering stream and dotted with sculptural rocks and specimen trees. Another is a bog garden that has been carefully but lightly managed so that a new plant community emerged to play a particular aesthetic role. One more still is an elaborate complex of rock terraces stepping down a slope, each with its own vocabulary of design, materials, and mood.
Throughout the garden, there are themes and motifs that recur in varied forms. There is a dynamic tension between what appears to be natural and what appears to be cultivated. At a macro scale, this is evidenced by the entirety of the garden itself emerging from apparent wooded wilderness. Undulating, almost surreal natural topography is echoed in the rounded forms of clipped trees and constructed berms. Tall, straight pine trunks are mirrored in a 60’ high fountain jet. Naturalistic bogs are discreetly cultivated while areas that look like traditional planted beds are allowed to evolve and change like native plant communities.
While there are some exceptional horticultural specimens at Innisfree, the vast majority of the plants are native or naturalized. Instead of labor-intensive maintenance to strictly adhere to a fixed planting plan, plants are encouraged to find locations where they thrive just as they do in the wild and then gently edited for aesthetics. Sometimes this is achieved simply by allowing plants to self-sow; sometimes by sowing seed or moving plants in from elsewhere on site to increase a successful population; sometimes by limited hybridization to develop strains that are more ideally suited to specific local conditions. As a result, the overall plantings at Innisfree have an unstudied visual character punctuated by a handful of carefully placed, carefully sculpted trees.
There is also a deliberate choreographing of human perceptual experiences throughout Innisfree. Collins paid particular attention to these ideas. Scale ranges from massive to intimate. Spaces are open and bright, or tight and shadowy. Surfaces vary in material, texture, slope, and sound. Water changes form, scale, and sound. Design and planting details are dense or spare.
Another important motif at Innisfree is sculptural landforms. Collins began to clear trees to reveal the undulating glacial landforms. Collins felt that “land shapes, both natural and man-made…separate but also knit together sequences of cup gardens. Just like the sculptural rocks, these land forms are permanent design features in the garden, for they do not grow and their health is not subject to vagaries.” In the 1970s and early 1980s, Collins created dramatic berms in the garden to echo and emphasize the natural landforms.
In the nearly 70 years since Innisfree opened to the public, the garden has delighted and captured the imagination of experts and non-experts alike. Garden lovers, landscape writers and critics have sought to capture the unique aesthetic qualities and unusual design sophistication of Innisfree in various descriptive terms.

Understanding first-hand how the bulk electric system operates can be a challenge for those who don’t work with it every day. So in addition to offering NERC-certified course to utility industry professionals, the Electric Power Training Center can provide simulated training for anyone with an interest in learning about the principles and operation of power generation, transmission and interconnected system operations. On March 18, Alex McDonough, senior policy advisor to Senator Harry Reid (NV-D), received a hands-on demonstration of EPTC’s self-contained, fully operational miniature power system that includes three generators, two substations, many hundreds of miles of transmission lines, a dispatch center and a variety of loads spread throughout the system. EPTC Manager Steve Yexley, right, answered McDonough's questions. (Photo by Jen Neville)

The great thing about the beach is that it presents an entirely different universe from season to season, from day to day, from hour to hour, from second to second, with the ever changing wind, tides, clouds, and sun. A split second with tumbling surf and a sinking sun can make a vast different, resulting in entirely different photographs.

Ralph Waldo Emerson. The happiest man is he who learns from nature the lesson of worship.
Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.
My principles of design for this photo is contrast because the contrast between all of the different colors and a little bit of texture created from the lines on my skin brought out by the color. The process for my image was I took some food coloring and I dripped it down my hands and blended some with a paintbrush. Then I took a light and shined it onto my hand and took the photo. If I could change one thing it would be to change the angle of the photo. I think I did well with making sure the colors turned out vibrant enough.
