Slide 04: Closing livestock yield gaps in the developing world: Imperatives for people and the planet, slide presentation made by ILRI director general Jimmy Smith at the Global Food Security Consortium Spring Symposium on 'Closing the Yield Gap', 29-30 Apr 2014, in Ames, Iowa (photo credit: ILRI).
Looking from the Upper Devil's Slide site (a little further N along the coastline & highway) towards Lower, aka Little Devil's Slide.
Little Devil's Slide has a very interesting history. While coastal erosion over the 60+ years since it was built has certainly had an effect, a man bought the grounds back in the 1960s or 1970s & leveled the terrain surrounding the structure, with the intent of building housing on the site!

Piedmont, possibly when we walked from MontForte di Alba
to Barolo.
Sharpened in Topaz Photo AI - the original was soft.

I think my grandparents never edited their pictures. I always go through mine and toss ground shots, lens caps left on, redundant poses, ends of film, too over or under exposed, faces cut off, all sky and no land (granpa took lots of these - a huge expanse of sky and a sliver of buildings or hills at the very very bottom). They kept every single one, so the collection needed some serious editing.
Most of the pics were of places. Not a lot of buildings, and not many people (other than those who were doing the traveling). No candid shots of others, no artful or funny or composed shots. Which is awful boring after a while. I'm still talking of the american ones, hopefully the pics of other countries will be more engaging.
I just spent 50 bucks getting the old slide projector fixed. It was more for the nostalgia, especially since I could buy a cheapo projector for half that. But that click and shush sound it makes when a slide goes into the machine is magic. It takes me back decades, to slideshows of family travels at that extra special time, after bedtime. There was always something magical about the goings on after I was put to sleep, so being allowed to stay up (or sneak down and hide halfway up the staircase to watch) and be part of the action made it all the more memorable. Perhaps it's one of the reasons my rhythm is now geared to staying up until midnight, 1, 2, 3am. Nothing cool ever happens in the morning, it's always late at night.
Found slide in Gepe home-mount taken with the flash too close. I have tried to correct it but there isn't much detail there.
these are a few of the slides I use on my guitars, and a copy of Reverend Beat Man's VooDoo Rhythm DVD i got for $5
Found unbranded and undated slide showing a Commer minibus parked in a rugged landscape (could be the Brecon Beacons). The slide is manually labelled "Brian". There is a logo on the door of the minibus but I can't read it.
An unusual upload but it's here for fellow slide rule enthusiasts to download. This is an image of a multi-slide rule for the pricing of metal bars, tubes etc. This must be a rare item and it belonged to a fellow member of a photographic society in Monmouth, Wales. He wouldn't let me buy it off him (or the Curta calculator he had) so I photocopied the surface of the slide rule and hence you see it here. Sadly the owner died and both the rule and calculator disappeared.
