Forthcoming! First Principles – The Official Biography of Keith Duckworth by Norman Burr.
This book chronicles the life of Keith Duckworth, the remarkable engineer famous for being co-founder of Cosworth Engineering and creating the most successful F1 engine of all time, the DFV. Although the company's engines are given due prominence, this isn’t an intricate technical examination of their design, but a more rounded look at the life and work of their designer – work which included significant contributions to aviation, motorcycling, and powerboating.

Built according to the best principles, having a round profile to repel shot. Culverins were placed here and there along the wall, and I assume in case of an actual attack, many more guns would have been posted at the gun ports we see here regularly spaced along the walls, most likely loaded with grapeshot, i.e., anti-personel shot.

I had the honour to shoot Aleks, Tina and Hanna while doing some areal acro on a beautiful sandy beach in Thailand's little paradise called Koh Phangan.
I choose this for emphasis, or the area of highest contrast, because its two bright fruits against a colorless background.
This Da Vinci illustration shows proportion and emphasis on divine proportion and the rule of thirds. found on deemartin.com/the-divine-proportion/
A couple Gestalt principles here include similarity and proximity. The windows are grouped together 1) because of similar size (large windows vs small windows) and shape (rectangle) and 2) because of how they are lined up and distanced the same way.
Now this dog is flying. His fur is flying and he is having the time of his life right now and this image displays movement.
Seascape: This seascape image represents space because of the water in the foreground, the cliff in the mid ground and the sunset in the background.
Road: The continuous road is a leading line to the sky and mountain in the background.
Silhouette: Shape is seen in this silhouette of the hikers and the cliff against the sky.
Tree branch: There is balance in this image because of a distinct foreground subject and a clear background sunset.
Water in between cliffs: There is texture because of the rigid rocks in the foreground.
Milky way Galaxy: There are purple colors in the night sky and blue in the galactic center which represents color.
Antelope Canyon: Value is seen in this image because of its light and dark shades against the canyon.
Objective 3: Elements and Principles of Design
Colour – The yellow of the dandelions make them stand out against the blurred green background. Yellow and green are close to each other on the color wheel, so the colours are analogous, which adds a feeling of harmony to the photo. Even though yellow is a warm colour, the lighting as well as the amount of green in the photo balance it out. The stems stand out with their red colour too.
Space – The positive space is mostly the sharp flower on the left of the photo, but the one on the right isn’t completely blurry so I would consider that positive space as well. The foreground is sharp, and the background is blurry, making the foreground the positive space and the background the negative space.
Shape – The flowers are the main organic shapes in the photo which break up the negative space. The flowers, grass, and weeds in the foreground make up the positive shapes. There aren’t really any noticeable negative shapes, just space.
Texture – There is a lot of texture in this photo. Firstly the top of the flower has an almost delicate texture from the soft lighting, while the area right under the flower and the weeds at the bottom left have an unwelcoming, menacing texture. The blades of grass look smooth.
Balance – The tack sharp dandelion on the left is balanced by the dandelion on the left, as well as the very blurred one under it. This is good because it lets the viewer’s eye move around and not just focus on the one dandelion. The photo would probably not have looked as good if there was only one flower. It is an asymmetric balance though since the flowers aren’t exactly the same height.
Emphasis – Stems lead the eye to both flowers which are also near the rule of thirds’ lines. The one on the right is blurred, emphasizing the one on the left. The colour and the fact that one dandelion is sharp while the background is blurred make the subject more emphasized.
Unity – The things that are clear in the photo involve just the plants. There something in the background that seems to not be a plant, but it is blurred and not too bright in terms of colour, so it doesn’t stand out. This gives the photo a lot of unity.
Objective 6: Critique
I like the way the stem on the sharp flower begins near the corner of the photo and leads the eye to the right. I also like how one flower is sharp while the other one is blurred since it gives the photo even more depth. I don’t like that the dandelions don’t show enough texture. The one on the right is blurred. The colours for the one on the left are so similar that you can barely see it.
Objective 7: Photographic Styles (ex. portrait, landscape, etc.) –
Type/style of photography: Close up
The camera mode (P, Tv, Av, M): Av mode
f stop used: 5.7. I wanted the background very blurry.
shutter speed used: 1/640
ISO used: 400. I might have been able to use an ISO of 200 but the camera lens was very heavy so I wanted the shutter speed faster.
Exposure compensation: It wasn’t necessary because it was cloudy.
Focal length: 300 mm.
I chose this picture for my principles of design rhythm because the hills show a rhythm of going up and down.

The 12 Principles of Animation
The 12 principles of animation where first talked about by 2 of Disney’s Animators in 1981. Ollie Johnston & Frank Thomas laid down these principles in their book “The Illusion of Life: Disney Animation”. This in turn was based on the work of Disney’s top animators from the 1930’s onwards, who strived to bring more realistic and believable animations to the screens.
In the book the philosophy of animation is expressed through these 12 principles. They are often referred to as the “Bible of Animation”, due to the biblical link to the number 12, e.g. the 12 tribes of Israel, the 12 apostles and the 12 stones of the foundation.
Following these 12 principles will always set you off on the right foot when animating:
1. Squash and stretch – Gives weight & flexibility;
2. Anticipation – Prepares the audience for what is to come;
3. Staging – Directs the audience’s attention;
4. Straight Ahead Action and Pose to Pose – Creates impulsive action;
5. Follow Through and Overlapping Action – Reactive animation after an action;
6. Slow In and Slow Out – Used to soften the action making it more life like;
7. Arcs – makes a character look less robotic;
8. Secondary Action – Add to main action to give a scene more life;
9. Timing – Used to control the speed (smooth or crisp) of the action;
10. Exaggeration – Enhances the essence of an action;
11. Solid Drawing – Using the appropriate weight, depth and balance; &
12. Appeal – Creation of a well drawn and developed character.
There are no justifiable short cuts when animating. These principle need to be learnt and understood and followed to the nth degree any time you are drawing.

TEN GOVERNING PRINCIPLES
1. Smaller, Constitutional Government: As a matter of principle, this Board of County Commissioners believes our citizens want smaller, less intrusive government; will restructure it accordingly; and encourage private sector solutions and/or partnerships to fulfill community needs whenever possible.
2. Mandates: This Board of County Commissioners will work with our State Delegation and the local cities and towns to resist unfunded mandates; excessive regulation; and the passing on of additional expenses from the federal or state government.
3. Term Limits: This Board of County Commissioners believes it is in the public interest to have fresh governance from time to time, and will petition the MD Delegation to limit County Commissioners, and appointed board and commission members to a maximum of two consecutive terms. Additionally, it is our intention to elect Board of Commissioner officers on an annual basis.
4. Property Taxes: This Board of County Commissioners believes property taxes are too high, and will make every effort to lower taxes by reducing spending, and making government operate in a more restrained and efficient manner.
5. Economic development: This Board of County Commissioners will support small business development consistent with the rural and suburban fabric of our communities. This Board will streamline approval processes; eliminate unnecessary regulation; and promote a business friendly climate for small and locally owned businesses.
6. Affirmation of Our Values: This Board of County Commissioners will open its meetings with the Pledge of Allegiance followed by a prayer.
7. Protection of Individual Property Rights: This Board believes our citizens have an unalienable right to be secure in their homes, farms and businesses; and will oppose rezoning of privately owned property against the wishes of its owner(s). Protection of property rights will be a goal of this Board in County planning and lawmaking.
8. Capital Expenditures: This Board will require industrial strength financial reviews on all future capital expenditures, including close scrutiny of all assumptions; rigorous life cycle cost projections; and early evaluation of feasible alternatives.
9. Straight Talk & Citizen Participation: This Board of County Commissioners will avoid the use of acronyms, and will converse with our constituents in plain English. Additionally, this Board will promote better communication with citizens by scheduling key hearings on evenings or weekends, and provide increased opportunity for two‐way dialogue at our public hearings.
10. Servant Leadership: This Board of County Commissioners will lead by example, and discontinue the practice of accepting per diem payments; cars; and other such perks. We will restructure the Commissioners office appropriately as well.
Principles have some fabulous pieces matching the description rather well. All the key components are there; graphic dresses and block colours with ethereal neutral tones and floaty fabrics. Both looks are matched with chunky or gladiator sandals to harden and add edge. Above all, they are totally wearable.
