A few days ago, GM announced that "all high performance groups have been released". This means an end to the Cadillac CTS-V, Corvette ZR1, and the entire Chevrolet SS line-up. A sad day for any performance-oriented car lover.

 

Strobist info. A single 430EX at 1/16 power, no modifiers, hand-held up and to camera left. A few frames fired with over-exposure to see where the "cone of light was". Then aperture choked down to get desired effect.

SS NORWAY on her last trip into New York,a week before 9/11

She was a beautiful old ship - she's now scrap. I'm glad I got to experience her glory before they put her down.

SS United States is a passenger liner built in 1952 for the United States Lines and designed to recapture the trans-Atlantic speed record from the British and serve as a possible troop carrier. Built at a cost of $78 million the ship remains the largest ocean liner built entirely in the United States, the fastest ocean liner to cross the Atlantic in either direction, and it remains current holder of the Blue Riband, given to the passenger liner crossing the Atlantic Ocean in regular service with the record highest speed. The United States operated in transatlantic passenger service until 1969, and since 1996 has been docked at Pier 82 on the Delaware River in Philadelphia.

 

The fifth SS Rotterdam, known as "The Grande Dame", was launched by Queen Juliana in a gala ceremony on 13 September 1958, and completed the following summer. The Rotterdam was the last great Dutch "ship of state", employing the finest artisans from the Netherlands in her construction and fitting out process. Her career spanned forty-one years. She sailed from 1959 until her final retirement in September 2000.

 

On July 12, 2004, she arrived at Gibraltar for asbestos encapsulation and removal performed by the Cuddy Group of the UK. She next visited Cadiz where her hull was repainted its original Holland America grey, and then moved on to Poland and Germany for final restoration. She returned to the city of Rotterdam on August 8, 2008. She opened to the public on February 15, 2010 as a combination museum/hotel and school for vocational training. On 12 June 2013, she was sold to WestCord Hotels, which also owns the Hotel New York located in the former Holland America Line headquarters building in Rotterdam.

Jan. 8, 2017: Tour of the museum ship SS Lane Victory in San Pedro, CA.

The SS Camlough ran aground and was wrecked on the morning of 14th January 1932, aftyer losing power in her engines during a full westerly gale. Although she was broken up for scrap where she lay, some remains can be seen on Monreith beach.

  

This October storms scoured away much of the sand covering the wreck and more of the Camlough was visible than usual.

Death SS was formed in 1977 in Pesaro by Steve Sylvester (born Stefano Silvestri), a future member of the Ordo Templi Orientis,[1] and Paul Chain (Paolo Catena), who would later embrace an experimental form of doom metal with his solo project, Paul Chain Violet Theatre. The band combined elements of horror, occultism and heavy metal to become a pioneer in horror metal[2] and black metal;[3] the musical style is called “horror music” by the band.[4] Sylvester left the band in 1982 and Chain replaced him with Sanctis Ghoram (featured on the Evil Metal EP) before closing the project in 1984 to start his solo career. Sylvester reformed the band in 1988 (with him being the only original member). This new incarnation of the band recorded their first full-length album, ...in Death of Steve Sylvester. There would be many line-up changes in the years to come, with Sylvester once again being the only constant.

SS United States, still at her long, sad rest in Philadelphia, PA. I can't help but wonder what will become of her, as she has been dormant so long.

On the back of the photo in pencil is neatly written the following:

"We pass the "Normandie" on her maiden voyage at 5.15pm on Friday the 31st May. I was the only one abroad to get a snap other, so the negative has been in great demand. Thought you might like the snap."

Joan would have been nine years old. I have no idea how the photo came to be in her house. I have no idea of the ship the photo was taken from or who took it.

This photograph is about Life and dementia.
