Last Friday I got a chance to reshoot the Pier 94 site I had visited week or so ago. In that original session I had struggled a bit with cloudy skies, inconsistent and turbulent winds, and a couple of suboptimal camera settings (e.g., lens wide open and thus soft in the corners).
This session found sunny skies, a lower tide, and a breeze that was still problematically variable but not to the extent of the 4 August session. The photo yield was much improved.
Subject description from the previous set:
Up until the late 19th Century the Islais Creek basin on San Francisco’s southern coast was an impressive tidal marsh. Then the exuberant application of explosives, steam, and later diesel power filled the marsh to create district of industrial works.
In the current day there is little to recognize of the former wetlands. The Islais Creek channel is still there in a formal, channelized way. Here and there you can find small patches of long neglected shoreline where nature has managed to soften the industrial vocabulary of the landscape. One example is Heron’s Head Park, which we documented earlier in the Hidden Ecologies project. On Saturday I visited another bit of the shore right at the outlet of Islais Creek. This is a site called Pier 94 where the Golden Gate Audubon Society is managing a small plot of land to provide habitat for wildlife and waterfront access for humans.
Anatomy of a Murder (1956) Poster.
Bass is known for his logo designs, but is more importantly known for his posters & title credits for films back in his days. He revolutionized the role of credits in films, and made them MUCH more presentable, and actually signify an importance in the openings of films.
This is one of his posters from the movie Anatomy of a Murder, and as you can see he uses a very simple design. Most of his work is done in just a few colors, usually consisting of black & white. In this poster, he uses parts of a body to express the story with a visual, instead of just relying on the title.

Old project I found that I had made in the 6h or 7th grade. I believe from plans from an Popular Electronics article. This was a popular sound chip used in toys & games. Radio Shack carried it back then. Interesting that I actully brought the project off of the breadboard and into a completed enclosure. Luckily I can solder a bit better these days. Does anybody remember the article?
The first Momentum Geocaching Day of 2017. Our friend, Tanya, has set a series of caches in her suburb, Island Bay. She's currently on holiday in India so we are searching for her caches today. The smallest we found was this nano. The little Buzzie Bee is our group travel bug.

For Project 365 2017 - A Starter for Ten, Theme 4, Monthly theme (geocaching).
Central Atlanta Progress, in conjunction with Am Yisrael Chai!, has launched the Downtown Daffodil Project in support of the worldwide Daffodil Project. The Daffodil Project aims to build a Living Holocaust Memorial by planting 1.5 million daffodils around the world to remember and represent the one and a half million children who died in Nazi occupied Europe. On Sunday December 7th, volunteers planted daffodils at the Center for Civil and Human Rights. The flowers should bloom in late March 2015.

Naar jaarlijkse gewoonte sloten de leerlingen van 4 verkoop het eerste trimester af met een creatief project.
Dit jaar werkten we voor de tweede keer op rij samen met artistiek bureau ‘vrije ruimte’ voor een project met als naam PixelPaint ‘Evolutie’, waarbij de leerlingen aan een muurschildering werkten.
Landscaping work taking place.......... will need to buy a few trees, apply a different shade of hedge to the back wall and continue with the detail work. The roof of the AEC Matador needs toning down and this top end of the yard is far to clean and uncluttered to be realistic.........it needs oil stains, bits of engine and assorted junk to complete the picture.
At the bottom of the stairs at the Thistle Inn - Wellington's oldest pub. I was there this evening for a Wellywalks hosts' meeting. Well the meeting was a room upstairs, not down here.

I've decided to start project 365 to improve my fantasy as photographer and learn something new.
It will be hard, I know, but I will do my best to make everyone enjoy my pictures.
Participating in the Co-curators Project. I have decided to do a slight variation of observation to the one Montana Raven is using. I looked at one of av_producer's photo for two minutes, then without the image in front of me, I drew what I remembered.
Colour pencils on tar paper
A friend said that he can see the emotion coming from this picture.

At the tail end of last yeat I had a conversation about a possible sculpt/resin toy based on a concept from David Bishop (@rundmb) and Jon Paul Kaiser (@jonpaulkaiser). Here is the first prototype; he hasn't got a name yet so we'll call him 'X' for now.
If you fancy seeing him in the flesh so to speak I'll be smuggling in my backpack to London next week at the Kidrobot Fatcap event on Thursday.
