Melvern Square is located in Annapolis County, north of the Annapolis River and less than a mile west of the Annapolis-Kings County line. As Place - Names and Places of Nova Scotia - states: "An early name was Milltown. Melvern Square is probably descriptive of the junction of four roads and may have been suggested by memory of a square in London, England. The name was given on January 3, 1857. Settlement began in the 1790's. A Baptist meeting-house was opened May 16, 1869. An Independent Baptist Church was dedicated August 12, 1951. Melvern Square United Church was dedicated on February 7, 1891 as a Methodist Church. A school house was built at "Melvern" prior to 1866. (A new five-room school was opened in September, 1959, now closed.) A postal way office was established in 1860. In 1932, a community hall was completed in the Village."
The Melvern Square store closes after serving the community for over 100 years. End of an era - Article by Andy Gillis from February 24, 1993 - Links - www.melvernsquare.ca/images/store1.jpg and
Some of you may have noticed that, unfortunately, owing to the fact that a certain person based in Kent who sells truck photos on eBay commercially has been lifting my images from this album and selling them I have had to remove 2300 photos that didn't have a watermark. I have now run around 1700 through Lightroom and added a watermark with the intention of bulk uploading them again. Rather than watermark the existing (hidden) files in Flickr one at a time it will be easier to do it this way. I definitely won’t be adding individual tags with the make and model of each vehicle I will just add generic transport tags. Each photo is named after the vehicle and reg in any case. For anyone new to these images there is a chapter and verse explanation below. It is staggering how many times I get asked questions that a quick scan would answer or just as likely I can’t possibly answer – I didn’t take them but just to clarify-I do own the copyright- and I do pursue copyright theft.
This is a collection of scanned prints from a collection of photographs taken by the late Jim Taylor A number of years ago I was offered a large number of photographs taken by Jim Taylor, a transport photographer based in Huddersfield. The collection, 30,000 prints, 20,000 negatives – and copyright! – had been offered to me and one of the national transport magazines previously by a friend of Jim's, on behalf of Jim's wife. I initially turned them down, already having over 30,000 of my own prints filed away and taking space up. Several months later the prints were still for sale – at what was, apparently, the going rate. It was a lot of money and I deliberated for quite a while before deciding to buy them. I did however buy them directly from Jim’s wife and she delivered them personally – just to quash the occasional rumour from people who can’t mind their own business. Although some prints were sold elsewhere, particularly the popular big fleet stuff, I should have the negatives, unfortunately they came to me in a random mix, 1200 to a box, without any sort of indexing and as such it would be impossible to match negatives to prints, or, to even find a print of any particular vehicle. I have only ever looked at a handful myself unless I am scanning them. The prints are generally in excellent condition and I initially stored them in a bedroom without ever looking at any of them. In 2006 I built an extension and they had to be well protected from dust and moved a few times. Ultimately my former 6x7 box room office has become their (and my own work’s) permanent home.
I hope to avoid posting images that Jim had not taken his self, however should I inadvertently infringe another photographers copyright, please inform me by email and I will resolve the issue immediately. There are copyright issues with some of the photographs that were sold to me. A Flickr member from Scotland drew my attention to some of his own work amongst the first uploads of Jim’s work. I had a quick look through some of the 30 boxes of prints and decided that for the time being the safest thing for me to do was withdraw the majority of the earlier uploaded scans and deal with the problem – which I did. whilst the vast majority of the prints are Jims, there is a problem defining copyright of some of them, this is something that the seller did not make clear at the time. I am reasonably confident that I have since been successful in identifying Jims own work. His early work consists of many thousands of lustre 6x4 prints which are difficult to scan well, later work is almost entirely 7x5 glossy, much easier to scan. Not all of the prints are pin sharp but I can generally print successfully to A4 from a scan.
You may notice photographs being duplicated in this Album, unfortunately there are multiple copies of many prints (for swapping) and as I have to have a system of archiving and backing up I can only guess - using memory - if I have scanned a print before. The bigger fleets have so many similar vehicles and registration numbers that it is impossible to get it right all of the time. It is easier to scan and process a print than check my files - on three different PC’s - for duplicates. There has not been, nor will there ever be, any intention to knowingly breach anyone else's copyright. I have presented the Jim Taylor collection as exactly that-The Jim Taylor Collection- his work not mine, my own work is quite obviously mine.
Unfortunately, many truck spotters have swapped and traded their work without copyright marking it as theirs. These people never anticipated the ease with which images would be shared online in the future. I would guess that having swapped and traded photos for many years that it is almost impossible to control their future use. Anyone wanting to control the future use of their work would have been well advised to copyright mark their work (as many did) and would be well advised not to post them on photo sharing sites without a watermark as the whole point of these sites is to share the image, it is very easy for those that wish, to lift any image, despite security settings, indeed, Flickr itself, warns you that this is the case. It was this abuse and theft of my material that led me to watermark all of my later uploads. I may yet withdraw non-watermarked photos, I haven’t decided yet. (I did in the end)
To anyone reading the above it will be quite obvious that I can’t provide information regarding specific photos or potential future uploads – I didn’t take them! There are many vehicles that were well known to me as Jim only lived down the road from me (although I didn’t know him), however scanning, titling, tagging and uploading is laborious and time consuming enough, I do however provide a fair amount of information with my own transport (and other) photos. I am aware that there are requests from other Flickr users that are unanswered, I stumble across them months or years after they were posted, this isn’t deliberate. Some weekends one or two “enthusiasts” can add many hundreds of photos as favourites, this pushes requests that are in the comments section ten or twenty pages out of sight and I miss them. I also have notifications switched off, I receive around 50 emails a day through work and I don’t want even more from Flickr. Other requests, like many other things, I just plain forget – no excuses! Uploads of Jim’s photos will be infrequent as it is a boring pastime and I would much rather work on my own output.
He sells "puris" near Mullickghat. 1 plate with 3 puris cost 12 rupees. I had them. They were pretty good.

All relevant and extensive information about the Hong Kong Police Force is available on their website
It is very comprehensive, the Hong Kong Police Force has a highly organised structure.
All Hong Kong Police Vehicles use the AM licence plate ie 2 digits and up to 4 numbers | Police vehicles have different colours, normal Police vehicles are white with red and blue stripes, the Police Traffic Division vehicles are white with yellow and blue checkerboard design.
Amazingly the Police Force have their own superstitions as well, the majority of the licence plates on Police Vehicles have lucky number combinations involving the numbers 6,8, and 9 ! Basically 6 means easy life, 8 means wealth and 9 means long life - this is very much Hong Kong Culture. The Police also use unmarked vehicles extensively which are NOT identified by the AM mark.
The Police Museum at 27 Coombe Road at the Peak is also worth a visit, see details on the website listed above.

Memorial Day at AT&T Park was a sunny holiday and a sell-out crowd. I always bring my camera to the park, this time with the 300mm telephoto lens so I could do some people watching.
View On Black to watch people eating, drinking, talking, texting, listening to the radio, keeping score, yelling at the umpires, sunbathing and just enjoying a day at the park.
Who says I never shoot pictures of people !!!!
If you can view the Original size, you will find the amount of detail astonishing from my new 18MP Canon EOS7D !

The goal is to sell prints from this series to raise money for breast cancer research.
These efforts came about due to my Aunt being diagnosed with Breast Cancer almost two years ago. Luckily, she has made a successful recovery and she has inspired me to help find a cure.
If any one is interested in purchasing prints please contact me via email: mikechillemi@gmail.com
Also, any women who are interested in modeling for this series, please contact me as well!
Thank you again to Brianna for an amazing shoot.
Before reaching Chinguetti, we made it to this oasis town, but it wasn't as pure as Terjit, so to speak. We were immediately surrounded by people selling souvenirs, and I felt obliged to buy some so that I would have more time to take pictures.

This picture was taken as our cruise ship, the Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam, very slowly cruised past the island of Venice.
This data-visualization has been published in the first issue of Bright Ideas Magazine (www.seedandspark.com/bright-ideas).
Since the late 80s, the Sundance Film Festival has been the premiere American market for independently-financed film. Despite a mid-recession lull in sale prices, more than a dozen films fetched seven-figure bids in
2013. One, The Way, Way Back, sold for more than $10 million. But what does a $2 million sale mean for a film that cost $6 million to make? To figure out a way to look at the available data in a new light, we selected a
handful of films that sold in Park City between 2011 and 2013, and engaged the Italian data visualization firm, Accurat, to re-imagine our spreadsheet as a three-dimensional work of analytical art. Feel free to spend hours staring at this.
She got upset when she noticed that I had taken a photograph of her.
Have a great weekend everyone!!!! :)

I sell custom figures at a store where I'm located in Michigan, and one of the owners asked me to make them two Final Fantasy Figures - Cloud and Sephiroth. This is my version of Sephiroth and a comparison shot of what I used to create said figure :)
The paddle steamer Waverley having just come down the River Thames from Tower Millenium Pier, London is seen here approaching Southend Pier Head. Passengers from London disembarked and passengers waiting for a Saturday afternoon cruise along the River Medway boarded. That included me. Glorious weather and a calm sea.
I have a vintage Margaret ad, that has a girl selling kawaii items just like this, so I had to pay tribute to it!!
At least, my guess is that this woman is from the Tamang group, possibly Gurung. She was certainly colourful as she sold her cilantro.
This vendor sold kettle corn, lemonade and other food items with almost military percision during the 2016 Kolache Festival in Caldwell Texas. Wearing Texas A&M maroon and white she took care of business. "Soldier, You will buy kettle corn!" " Yes Mam'am, How much Mam'am" ... She was cute.
Day 2 - Travel to New-York - February 2024
Manhattan's Chinatown is a neighborhood in Lower Manhattan, New York City, bordering the Lower East Side to its east, Little Italy to its north, Civic Center to its south, and Tribeca to its west. With an estimated population of 90,000 to 100,000 people, Chinatown is home to the highest concentration of Chinese people in the Western Hemisphere. Manhattan's Chinatown is also one of the oldest Chinese ethnic enclaves. The Manhattan Chinatown is one of nine Chinatown neighborhoods in New York City, as well as one of twelve in the New York metropolitan area, which contains the largest ethnic Chinese population outside of Asia, comprising an estimated 893,697 uniracial individuals as of 2017.
Vibrant Chinatown is a densely populated neighborhood that draws foodies and tourists to its many Chinese and Southeast Asian restaurants for dumplings, pork buns and hand-pulled noodles. The busy sidewalks are packed with souvenir stores, bubble tea shops, and markets selling everything from fresh and dried fish to herbs and spices. Locals hang out in leafy Columbus Park for Tai Chi, chess and mahjong.Day 2
