This slide is from my very early days in television. . .1975. I was directing a show called "On Stage". We tried to feature local performers of all types. This show featured a local magician who owned a very cool store called The Emporium. We did a 30 minute show with the magician performing a number of his best tricks and illusions. I took this shot as we were adjusting the lighting before recording the interview segment of the show. I asked the host, who was covered in balloons, to give me a smile. . .And this is what I got. He was a fun guy who actually did the "weather" segment on our newscasts. He wasn't a meteorologist, he was a "performer" who did the weather. Sort of like David Letterman who did the weather on a local station when he first started out. The man on the right is the magician. After we finished taping this show it was time for the 10 O'Clock News, so the host "magically" turned back into a "weatherman". I wish I had a recording of this show so I could watch it today and see what I think of it 48 years later!

A rework of a photo I took in my backyard in Oella, July 29, 2007. (The camera EXIF is not accurate on this page. It is from a random image that I blacked-out and used for the background layer here).
Or: The battle of the adapters.
It's not hard. You just have to make sure the slide is not tilted. Then you point the slide at a uniformly bright light source, such as a brightly lit white wall or a window with the sun shining in through a white curtain.
Then you focus with LiveView. Then you stop down to f/8 or so, switch to manual and try out different exposure times until you find the one that looks best. Long exposure times are not a problem as everything is mounted on a tripod and firmly fixed together so vibration is not an issue.
This is a Convair 580 being guided to a gate at the main concourse of the St. Louis - Lambert Airport in 1969. The 580 was one of the versions of the original Convair 240. The 580 was fitted with two Allison turboprop engines. It was easy to spot a turboprop by its four-blade propellers. The piston-engine planes used three-blade props. The 580 was used by Frontier, Allegheny Airlines, North Central and eventually American Eagle. I often saw 240's at the St. Louis airport in the early 1960's when they were flown by American Airlines. By the way, the Convair 240 has the distinction of being the first private aircraft used in a US Presidential campaign. Joseph Kennedy purchased a 240 from American Airlines for his son JFK to use in his 1960 campaign. That plane, named the "Caroline" after JFK's daughter, flew 225,000 miles during the 1960 campaign. It was donated to the Smithsonian in 1967. In 1960, when I was 10 years old, I saw the "Caroline" parked at the main concourse one afternoon at the St. Louis airport. JFK was in St. Louis for a campaign rally. I did not see JFK board the plane later that night, but it was still cool to see the "Caroline" in person that day.

Another photo from the archives this week. But one I rather like.
I did this with PhotoScape, but now can't remember how I got the effect.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
(299/366) Tintern Abbey was a Cistercian abbey located on the Hook peninsula, Co Wexford, Ireland. The Abbey – which is today in ruins, some of which have been restored – was founded in 1203 by William Marshal, Earl of Pembroke, as the result of a vow he had made when his boat was caught in a storm nearby. Once established, the abbey was colonised by monks from the Cistercian abbey at Tintern in Monmouthshire, Wales, of which Marshal was also patron. To distinguish the two, the mother house in Wales was sometimes known as 'Tintern Major' and its daughter abbey in Ireland as 'Tintern de Voto' (Tintern of the vow).

Another old slide from the Lake Afton Grand Prix. . .I have no notes on this car. It just caught my eye as I was roaming around the pit area on that beautiful August afternoon.

Gemeentemjuseum, Slide 1965, olieverf op doek.
Lee Lozano (1930-r1999).
Het komt niet vaak voor dat ik schilderijen in musea in zijn geheel fotografeer zonder dat ook iets (of iemand) anders op staat. Meestal pik ik er een detail uit of combineer ik het met een bezoeker of iets anders. In dit geval vond ik dit olieverfschilderij zo mooi van vormen en kleuren dat ik een uitzondering heb gemaakt. Ik vermoed dat links en rechts nog wel iets ontbreekt. Als u dat wilt controleren moet u zelf maar een keer naar het Gemeentemuseum gaan.

Slide from my parent's honeymoon trip to Florida. Dad took this through the glass in the old underwater observatory. This Mermaid isn't wearing a tail, but who's noticing?

A slide off the Deadhorse Mountains of west Texas occurred perhaps thirty years ago, my hiking companion tells me. We were making our way along the Dog Canyon Trail in Big Bend National Park.
JUST SLIDE!!!
those are not my words above. They are a quote from an unknown who has said it perfectly.
If you grew up like me with a parent (probably your father) that was taking care of the photos and slides and sorting them into the according boxes in the right order for a slide show, this picture might be a bit disturbing for you. It was for me. You can probably also remember the sound of the slide projector when changing slides as well as the noise of the slides in the box when you carried them around. I found this in Vienna, Austria. You can buy random slides of random people - 1€ each. Of course I bought a few and will post them here. I am pretty sure this is not "the box" my father imagined his slides would end up in.
