I love that Risse has such sharp, pointy features! She's quite different than my usual aesthetic and I love that about her. Wah! <3

It is always good to celebrate a successful Wellington business. Vance Vivian, Wellington’s very own specialty top-of-the-range men’s clothing store has just turned ninety. They are still going strong – setting the standards for sharp suits and other fine male fashion.

 

The firm was begun by Mt George Vance and Mr Harold Vivian in 1924. Vivian was bought out in the 1930s and since then the business has stayed in the Vance family. It is now owned and operated by the third-generation Vance brothers, Robert and Hamish.

 

The original store was up on the corner of Manners and Cuba streets, about where Banks Shoe Shop is now. Very soon a second shop was opened at the bottom end of Lambton Quay and, later, there were Vance Vivian shops in the Hutt, Masterton, Christchurch and Auckland. Nowadays the business is concentrated on the Lambton Quay shop, now up the other end of the Quay, opposite Cable Car Lane.

 

This fine photograph is part of a Vance Vivian men’s fashion shoot by the firm of K E Niven and company, one of Wellington’s foremost commercial photographers last century. It was a beautiful day and the models were photographed at various spots around the city. This elegant couple are posing with their glamour Jaguar on Clifton Terrace on Oriental Bay, gazing out over the harbour. You can see other scenes from the shoot below, up at the Museum, down at the Evans Bay boatyard and elsewhere.

The entrance to the Old Dock at Sharpness, the lock gates of which are now sealed.

The white building is the old customs house, now used by SARA, the Severn Area Rescue Association. SARA's boats, until recently, were winched into the Severn using the crane to the right of the building, but recently a new slipway has been built nearby which greatly increases the speed with which the boat can be launched.

Today I was able to test the Tamron 150-600mm in very cold weather. It was 7° Fahrenheit with a well below 0 wind-chill. This is at least a month earlier than I was expecting. The lens performed perfectly both autofocus and vibration control performed perfectly. The cold had no effect on the lens that I could see.

Here is a shot of a sharp-shinned hawk that has been stalking our feeders.

As you can see in the video it is not that easy to tell them apart.

If you are looking for an island with great white sand beaches, clear water swimming and a little adventure, Sharp island is for you. Just a short trip from Sai Kung pier, this is a great getaway both for sun seekers and hikers – even better if you want both.

Modeling the new black & gold & "Gold 45 Revolver" Gold'N'Virtue swimsuits with the main equation to Moving Dimensions Theory on the swimsuits: dx4/dt=ic. Yes I have a Ph.D. in physics! :) You can read more about my research and Hero's Odyssey Physics here:

herosodysseyphysics.wordpress.com/ MDT PROOF#2: Einstein (1912 Man. on Rel.) and Minkowski wrote x4=ict. Ergo dx4/dt=ic--the foundational equation of all time and motion which is on all the shirts and swimsuits. Every photon that hits my Nikon D800e's sensor does it by surfing the fourth expanding dimension, which is moving at c relative to the three spatial dimensions, or dx4/dt=ic!

A small pond of water down athirapalli falls. I was attracted by the sharp cuts in the rocks and some subtle reflections. Makes a good wallpaper.

Pretty on the shell, but feels quite awkward...it doesn't feel right and I keep making mistakes with it. Argh!

My first computer! A very very rare bit of personal computing history. My parents bought it when I was about 3 or 4.

Green and black screen, tape cassette loading, buzzer sounds (beep beep)... It operated in machine code when you switch it on so you had to load BASIC before you could load any programs. (BASIC cassette tape was in the player when I dug it out)

Life Bird #59

 

I was standing in my living room looking out my front window when I saw a large bird out of the corner of my eye, swoop down heading to what I thought was my bird feeder but landed on some fence sections we still had in the yard from out holiday decorations. I thought it was one of the scub jays but to my surprise it was this hawk. I've had other hawks land on my side fence but wasn't able to get a shot. I stood there just watching him for a little while, when I heard my husband come in from the back yard I told him to walk over slowly so he could see him before he flew away. I decided to get my camera out of the back room but figured I wouldn't be able to get a shot b/c I would have to raise the blind and doing so would scare him away but as you can see I was able to get it raised enough. He stayed there for awhile after I got the shot but the neighbor came over to work on the house and scared him away..I believe they hang around my house b/c of all the sparrows and other small birds that come to my feeder. I think it great that I don't have to go out looking for these birds, they just come to me...lol I put it up for ID b/c I wasn't sure if it was a Cooper's or Sharp-Shinned Hawk..I was leaning more towards the Sharp-Shinned and I was correct..I wish it was a better shot but I'm happy with it

 

**As always I appreciate all your comments…Thank You!!**

A macro shot from Jewelry that is sharp from foreground to background? With a fullframe camera? Well, yes, this is also possible without focus stacking --- just step down the aperture to f/20 and choose a far enough shooting distance. And then crop later-on.

 

+ fast

+ no stacking needed, no macro rail needed

+ no tripod needed (as you need only one shot)

+ resolution after the crop is still high enough for web

 

- overall decreased sharpness

- resolution is not high enough for print
