One of my photos taken on Ossington Avenue a few years ago is featured in the latest edition of IDEAT, “un magazine déco et design”. It happens to be the same one that was used by Time Out, except that IDEAT asked for permission, and they mentioned paying me, and they said they will send me a couple of copies. I saw it in a bookshop and asked if I could take pictures. They dedicate five pages to Ossington Avenue. The magazine is in French but so many English words are used that it would seriously annoy Québec’s Office de la langue française.

In March 2013 I received this message:
Dear Steven,
We would like to ask for your permission to use your photo of a P&O Nedlloyd container (below a Maersk one) in an upcoming book we're writing on 40 years of containerisation. It will be published by Cambridge University Press.
This is the one we're talking about: www.flickr.com/photos/stevenbrandist/8494872138/
If yes, then we will of course make sure to fully credit you :-)
Look forward to hearing from you.
Brgds,
Jonathan Wichmann / Maersk Line
A few weeks ago I received a strangely think and heavy packet. They had kept their word and supplied me with a copy in return for letting them use my photo. Page 318 features my photo.
The book is titled "Creating Global Opportunities: Maersk Line in Containerisation 1973-2013".
This book traces the rise to prominence of Maersk Line - the world's leading container operator - and the internal decision-making processes that lay behind the firm's extraordinary expansion between 1973 and 2013.
This book can be bought from Waterstones for £50.00.

Simply writing "June 15, 1896" before March 11, 2011 describes the costliest natural disaster ever world wide in great detail and by epicenter with the fewest number of characters possible. I prove it here. Click the link. I published the day that day "June 15, 1896" one thousand times individually before March 11, 2011 specifically for cunts.

That specifically is when the costliest natural disaster ever world wide occurred at the same epicenter as "June 15, 1896" in the same ocean as "June 15, 1896" with the same magnitude as "June 15, 1896" starting the same size tsunami as "June 15, 1896" striking the same shores of the same cities on the same island with the same thing exactly as last occurred on "June 15, 1896" killing the same number of dirty japs "Celebrating Shinto" instead of me.

La talentuosa compositrice americana Shara Worden, alias My Brightest Diamond, arriva in Italia per un’unica data a febbraio per presentare il nuovo album This is My Hand, uscito a settembre sempre per la label Asthmatic Kitty Records.
Non molte artiste possono vantare di avere un gruppo rock, essere in grado di cantare la Terza Sinfonia di Górecki, condurre una marching band per le strade del prestigioso festival Sundance, eseguire un'opera barocca di propria composizione, e tutto in un mese. Shara Worden può.
La sua carriera poliedrica con la sua creatura My Brightest Diamond, che ha avuto inizio con l’acclamato debutto Bring Me the Workhorse nel 2006, rispecchia il suo viaggio nel mondo dell’arte. This is my hand, il suo quarto album, segna un deciso ritorno alla musica rock, con incredibile padronanza della composizione e una nuova esplorazione nell’universo elettronico.
Nata in Arkansas e poi allevata in giro per gli States, la talentuosa polistrumentista Shara Worden proviene da una famiglia di viaggiatori musicisti evangelici.
In seguito si è trasferita a NY dove ha continuato a studiare canto lirico e composizione classica.
Dopo un periodo nella band AwRY e dopo aver suonato con Sufjan Stevens, Shara ha esordito col nome di My Brightest Diamond nel 2006 con Bring Me The Workhorse, a cui è seguito A Thousand Sharks’ Teeth nel 2008, e nel 2011 All Things Will Unwind.
Negli anni di attività come MBD, Shara ha collaborato con moltissimi artisti e preso parte a diversi progetti. Nel 2008 ha lavorato con Laurie Anderson, nel 2009 è stata ospite nell’album dei Decemberists Hazards of Love e successivamente in tour con la band, per poi partecipare al progetto multimediale The Long Count di Bryce e Aaron Dessner dei The National. E’ stata poi al fianco di David Byrne nel concept Here Lies Love ed ha collaborato con Fat Boy Slim, Bon Iver, e The Blind Boys of Alabama.
Un’altra recente collaborazione l’ha vista al fianco di Matthew Barney e Jonathan Bepler nella cine-opera di 6 ore River of Fundament, girata nelle fabbriche di automobili di di Detroit, e fonte di ispirazione fondamentale per il nuovo album This is my hand. Prodotto dalla stessa Shara e dal tastierista Zac Rae, l'album è un capitolo fondamentale nella storia artistica di MBD. Quello che Shara porterà in tour è un vortice di fiati, vibrafono e synth, che rispecchia un’idea di musica capace di unire le persone, una musica per grandi spazi, non solo sale musicali e piste da ballo, ma caminetti e chiese, e prima di tutto una musica da marching band capace di coinvolgere e sollevare.
“Diamonds,” Shara sings, “so wild I cannot tame them / so shiny I cannot name them.”

Scanned from the original 35MM film negative.
This is my first picture i have had published and I'm absolutely oven the moon, really, no pun intended.
I can't even begin to explain how happy this has made me, I'm a total amateur, I'm not a professional photographer, i just like to get out there and take some pictures purely as a hobby when I have a spare 5 minutes, i only just bought my first DSLR 2 months before taking this picture on it.
I was paid for the picture, but the money actually means very little, what I'm really ecstatic about is the fact i now have a free copy of a magazine that has one of my pictures in it, money can't buy that.
3 years taking pictures when i could as a hobby and now i have a picture Published, need a say more ? I'm just so happy.
I don't necessarily agree with black & white photos and especially not night photos, but they paid for it, so the can use it how they like.
The original picture is here.

I love long exposures, everything to do with night time, the dark, sunrise and sunset.
I like to take pictures mainly at night , sometimes during the day and in dull and fading light and I will sometimes display the time and date the picture was taken too.
I tend to take pictures of Light trails, Motorway traffic, Street lights, Buildings, Landscapes, Bokeh, Night bokeh and Hexagonal Night Bokeh in and around the North East of England.
All of my pictures are 100% natural and untouched in every way without ever been Photo shopped or altered or messed about with in anyway whatsoever, No multi layered photography, No HDR's and No image manipulation of any kind, all of my pictures look just the way they did when I saw them at the time of taking and I'm VERY PROUD of that.
I don't do any photo processing at all, I don't even own any photo software.
All of my starbursts are all 100% natural without using any filters or anything else, as is all my bokeh, night bokeh and hexagonal night bokeh, its all natural, no funny gimmicks at all.
I don't do anything with my pictures apart from take them and then upload them , 99.99999% of my pictures don't even get cropped , they are all 100% natural and untouched and then uploaded.
All of my pictures are copy right, © All rights reserved, you MAY NOT use any of my pictures without my written consent, you also MAY NOT change, alter, adjust or rearrange my pictures in anyway what so ever.

NOTE:
You can get all of the instructions and details over at my instructable which I have published on this very thing:
www.instructables.com/id/Sonic-Screwdriver-Wand-2-the-FDM...
BACKGROUND:
'Twas the year 2014 when a friend of mine asked me to make her something similar to the Sonic Screwdriver Wand made by expert wandmaker Maranda Li aka Praeclarus Wands. The result of that inquiry was my own take on this, which I have documented in its own instructable (www.instructables.com/id/Sonic-Screwdriver-Wand-Doctor-Wh...). I even made a nice Tardis / Ollivander hybrid box for it to be kept in and again, made an instructable for that (www.instructables.com/id/TARDIS-inspired-Fitted-Wand-Box/). Going further out of my way I designed a huge, A1 blueprint-like poster for the wand which you can grab for free and print for non-commercial purposes if you feel like it (www.flickr.com/photos/cabbitcastle/14480701121/in/album-7..., or on instructables). Print it, slap it onto your wall, make your own T-Shirt with it, as long as you don't make any money off it and maybe, just maybe send me a picture of it I'm cool with it.
It was supposed to be a one-off project, yet time and time again I had been asked if there was a possibility to make another one. It seems access to woodworking lathes is rather limited, which in hindsight should come as no surprise. I mean if you don't have a lathe yourself, how do you even find someone who does? Plus, using one isn't that straightforward either. Until recently one determined lass managed to bribe, I mean convince me to bring this project back to life. The catch this time is now that I have my very own 3D printer I'll be allowed to make the whole thing 3D printable, though mixed media or complete wood reconstruction is, of course, still possible for anyone who wants to do so. I think that access to 3D printers or 3D printing services ought to be far better than the woodworking lathe supply, so I might actually lay this to rest for good this time.
PROJECT DESIGN:
Generally speaking, when recreating a prop or using it as an inspiration, getting as much high-quality reference material on it as possible is a tremendous help. As I am mostly copying myself / the previous iteration of this project and as I am a data hoarder I still have all the necessary material safely stored on a hard drive. Additionally I have procured some rather decent pictures from a production-used Sonic Screwdriver from Doctor Who episode “The Day of the Doctor” thanks to a tbt Props sale as well as from a high-quality replica by The Celestial Toystore.
Now it was never the intention to make a perfect replica, so my design is still not that accurate in respect to the original prop. I actually know for a fact that there are mistakes. It is, however, more detailed than my previous version with most differences being in the details. The general design can be seen in the sketches I have attached as a PDF here.
I have taken steps to have the wand and grip part seperate (as was done previously) and joined by an 220mm long, 8mm diameter steel rod to give a higher weight to the Sonic Wand, making it feel higher-class than it actually is. As I realise not everyone will want to go down that route I have taken the liberty to design a couple different versions for various types of printing / manufacturing / joining. You can find them going over the instructable link at the top.

(the published photos are in comments) All right, I'm not afraid to promote myself occasionally, and I've got to finally mention this because it's almost your last chance to easily find this issue on the stands or in stores...
This is the Chicago Reader's 1000 Words, Second Annual Photo Issue, which featured a reader contest. I picked it up and saw I had one in the issue...and it was on the table of contents page too. Then I kept looking, and there were more photos of mine...5 in all! It's kind of embarrassing that of the 22 photos, 5 are mine (no one else had more than 3)...when so many great photographers didn't get in there. Also, I never even officially entered the contest; they just picked photos I'd submitted to the Chicago Reader Flickr group. And I'm not even shooting with a "real" camera...and so on.
But I work hard on my photography (I even landed in the hospital due to it last year, though that's more about recklessness than dedication, perhaps) and I'm glad it's been recognized (plus, uh, this makes up for the fact that they've never published any of my shots in the Reader before, just online). This wasn't the first time I got a photo in print in 2008...I'll belatedly have a post about the other one soon....I meant to say something much sooner but New Year's, a family visit, and a Detroit trip intervened...
Many thanks to the Reader* and to all of you who've supported my work! If you can't get an actual copy, it's here (online has 24 photos, not 22)

*In the summer, the editors named me "Best Local Blog 2008" (a tie) and I again feel guilty I've posted so little there recently; I'm working on a sort of relaunch/lots of new content, once again, life has gotten in the way of my posting there...the photo related to that news:

Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls is 27 km (17 mi) northwest of Buffalo, New York, and 69 km (43 mi) southeast of Toronto, between the twin cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Niagara Falls, New York.
Niagara Falls was formed when glaciers receded at the end of the Wisconsin glaciation (the last ice age), and water from the newly formed Great Lakes carved a path over and through the Niagara Escarpment en route to the Atlantic Ocean.
Niagara Falls is a group of three waterfalls at the southern end of Niagara Gorge, spanning the border between the province of Ontario in Canada and the state of New York in the United States.
The largest of the three is Horseshoe Falls, which straddles the international border of the two countries. It is also known as the Canadian Falls.
The smaller American Falls and Bridal Veil Falls lie within the United States. Bridal Veil Falls is separated from Horseshoe Falls by Goat Island and from American Falls by Luna Island, with both islands situated in New York.
Formed by the Niagara River, which drains Lake Erie into Lake Ontario, the combined falls have the highest flow rate of any waterfall in North America that has a vertical drop of more than 50 m (160 ft).
During peak daytime tourist hours, more than 168,000 m3 (5.9 million cu ft) of water goes over the crest of the falls every minute.
Niagara Falls is famed for its beauty and is a valuable source of hydroelectric power. Balancing recreational, commercial, and industrial uses has been a challenge for the stewards of the falls since the 19th. century.
Khuda Bakhsh
So what else happened on the day that the card was posted?
Well, the 3rd. August 1908 was not a good day for Khuda Bakhsh, because he died on that day.
Sir Khan Bahadur Khuda Bakhsh OIE FRAS, who was born on the 2nd. August 1842, was an Indian advocate, judge, philosopher, revolutionary freedom fighter, scholar and historian from Patna, Bihar.
He was the founder of the Khuda Bakhsh Oriental Library, and Chief Justice of Nizam's Supreme Court of Hyderabad from 1895 to 1898.
Khuda Bakhsh maintains a strong legacy across the Islamic World for his contributions to Literature and History.
-- Khuda Bakhsh - The Early Years
Sir Khan Bahadur Khuda Bakhsh was born into a prominent noble family in Patna, Bihar. He was brought up under the guidance of his father, Sir Muhammed Bakhsh, a famous advocate and Zamindar from Patna.
His family was distinguished in scholarship, and one of his distant ancestors, Qazi Haibatullah, took part in compiling the Fatawa 'Alamgiri.
The House of Bakhsh were the official record-keepers who were given the responsibility by the Mughal Emperors of recording day-to-day activities across the Mughal Empire.
Khuda's father was a lawyer working in Bankipur, and although he was not wealthy, due to his passion for Persian and Arabic literature, he had amassed a collection of 1,400 manuscripts.
Khuda Bakhsh later added to this collection.
Khuda initially studied in Calcutta under the care of a Nawab Amir Ali Khan Bahadur. However his father's illness meant that he was recalled home to Bankipur to start work in order to help his family financially.
-- Khuda Bakhsh's Career
Khuda started his career as a Peshkar in 1868. He later became the Government pleader of Patna in 1880.
During this time his father became very ill. In his dying breath, he asked his son to open a public library. Khuda inherited 1,400 manuscripts from his father.
In 1890 Bakhsh built a two-story library which was inaugurated in 1891 by the former Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal, Sir Charles Elliott. Bakhsh donated his manuscripts and books to the public on the 14th. January 1891. He later expanded the collection to 4,000 manuscripts and 80,000 books.
He became the first director of the library, and remained in that position until his death, except for a brief period from 1895 to 1898 when he served as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Hyderabad.
Khuda Bakhsh was a great friend of Shibil Nomani and Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, with whom he worked in order to introduce multiple reform in the education system of British India.
Sir Khuda Bakhsh was approached by representatives of the British Museum who made a stunning offer to purchase his collection, but he declined. He informed V. C. Scott O'Connor, an orientalist based in Edinburgh, England:
"I am a poor man, and the sum they offered me
was a princely fortune, but could I ever part for
money with that to which my father and I have
dedicated our lives?"
No. The collection is for Patna, and the gift shall
be laid at the feet of the Patna public".
The library was designated as an institution of national importance on the 26th. December 1969 by an act of Parliament.
-- The Death and Legacy of Khuda Bakhsh
Khuda Bakhsh was a very simple man with great vision and commitment. He died at the age of 66 on the 3rd. August 1908, and was laid to rest in the library grounds.
The Khuda Bakhsh Award for scholars for their lifetime achievements in the fields in which the library specializes was created in his honor in 1992.
Mahatma Gandhi commented on the legacy of Bakhsh:
"I heard about this beautiful library nine years
ago and I've been looking forward to seeing it
ever since.
I was very happy to see the priceless treasure
of rare books here. I pay tribute to the great
founder of this library who has spent every
penny to give this invaluable treasure to India."
The historian, Jadunath Sarkar, referred to Khuda Bakhsh as the "Indian Bodley" in reference to Thomas Bodley, the founder of the Bodleian Library in Oxford.
This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 17th of August 1915.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images and have any stories and information to add please comment below.
