This manuscript contains parts of surahs (chapters) 18 to 20 from the Islamic holy book, the Qur’an. It is written on parchment in Hijazi, an early form of Arabic script with distinctive slanting letters and few diacritical marks. Radiocarbon dating of the parchment on which the text is written, carried out at a laboratory at the University of Oxford, has placed it in the period between 568 - 645 CE (56-55 BH to 24-25 AH) with 95.4% probability. The result places the leaves close to the time of the Prophet Muhammad, who lived between c. 570 - 632, and the rule of the first three Rightly Guided Caliphs.
The manuscript is one of the earliest surviving fragments of the Qur’an in its written form, and one of only a handful of early manuscripts of the Qur’an in the world to have been radiocarbon dated.
The manuscript is part of the University’s Mingana Collection of Middle Eastern Manuscripts held in the Cadbury Research Library. Funded by Quaker philanthropist Edward Cadbury, from chocolate-making family, the collection was acquired during the 1930s, to raise the status of Birmingham as an intellectual centre for religious studies. The 3,000 manuscripts in the Mingana Collection are now held in the Cadbury Research Library at the University of Birmingham, UK.

As I come to experiment more with landscape images it becomes apparent that any weather conditions hold potential photo opportunities. Understanding the weather and how to focus on the right sort of images for the conditions is essential.
On a damp misty day woodland becomes your best option as the mist helps reduce the clutter and soften or even out the images.

Sai Ying Pun is an area in Western District, in the northwestern part of Hong Kong Island, in Hong Kong. It is administratively part of Central and Western District.
In Chinese language, Sai (西) means "west" and Ying Pun (營盤) means "camp", especially military camp. It was where early British military stayed.
西營盤位於香港香港島西部的一個住宅區，為香港最早期發展的地區之一。地區行政上，西營盤屬於中西區。西營盤的「營盤」，是軍營的意思。對於指誰的軍營，共有兩個傳說：第一是海盜張保仔的基地，第二是駐港英軍的營地，原因是英軍曾在該地駐防。1841年英軍登陸水坑口之後，便在今水街的山邊設立軍營，駐有八百名印籍士兵。

The girl on the left's left leg seems straight, hence the title. I would like to study Garry Winogrand photos more as he has influenced how I hold my camera but not much else. Going to start with Tavis Leaf Glover's video as that may help me understand the quality of Garry Winogrand's work. Here is the video in case anyone else is interested: youtu.be/wX3PCBS-tIg
