Used for my AP Concentration: Using Bokeh as a primary aspect of a photo, in a "forced perspective" like way.
I used to see these a lot as a child, but last week was the first time in the 4 years I have lived in this place that I have seen a thrush. A pair fed happily on the lawn for some time. I haven't seen them since.
Most of the stock was composed of General Motors products. For vintage car fanciers, a look at larger sizes might be fun. A very ordinary sight then, such an assemblage of vintage cars would certainly attract a lot of interest now.

PCD 80R was a regular performer at the Seaford outstation of Stagecoach owned South Coast Buses, and would quite often run me to school on either the 26 or 120 Seaford town services.
It's really good to see this bus fully restored, for a while it looked to be consigned to the scrap yard with it's sole purpose to surrender useful parts.
Paul Llewellyn, 34's owner, and South East Coachworks should be justly proud for turning out a real stunner.
Beersheba Springs used to be a resort town in Tennessee's Cumberland Mountains in Grundy County. While there, the place to stay used to be the Beersheba Springs Hotel. This is the view from the observation deck from the hotel at dusk. It hasn't been open as a hotel for many decades and is now owned by an organization of the United Methodist Church.

Using the ICM technique, this is a portrait of the Redbud Lavender Twist from beginning of spring and mid April. I accidentally forgot my ND filter but was pleasantly surprised that this photo worked out.

The Princess Royal officially opens Wales First World War Centenary Wood, Coed Ffos Las
It’s been four years in the making, with many hundreds of local people including children helping to plant the trees, and Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal has now formally opened Coed Ffos Las, Wales’ First World War Centenary Wood, in the Gwendraeth Valley in Carmarthenshire. As the Woodland Trust’s (Coed Cadw’s) most recently planted wood in Wales, it's part of the The First World War Centenary Woods project which is helping to plant millions of native trees to commemorate the First World War.
The Princess Royal was joined by around 40 invited guests on 2 July, who saw demonstrations highlighting the hugely important role that woods and trees played in the First World War. There was horse ploughing, greenwood working and a working blacksmith. The 157 Royal Logistics Corp were also present, a company created as a result of the First World War, who have helped plant the trees at Coed Ffos Las and who are proud to have The Princess Royal as their Patron.
Her Royal Highness then formally unveiled a plaque displaying the name of the life-sized War Horse Sculpture which forms a special Commemorative Feature of the site. Created out of Corten steel by the designer Steve Tomlinson, the statue was named Yr Arwr / Hero, after the poem which won Hedd Wyn the Chair at the 1917 National Eisteddfod. The name was chosen by Jane Hutt, formerly Leader of the House at the National Assembly for Wales, from ideas suggested in a public competition for names organised last summer in which nearly one hundred people took part.
Natalie Buttriss, Director of Wales for the Woodland Trust (Coed Cadw) said: “I’m delighted to be able to welcome The Princess Royal to Coed Ffos Las. Working with the local community and with the support of our members and sponsors we have created a beautiful, poignant new woodland which incorporates 90,000 native trees. There is also an orchard, bee hives, a pond, an area of woodland which can be coppiced, open areas for enjoying the panoramic views, as well as the amazing war horse sculpture as a commemorative feature.
“Coed Ffos Las is a unique woodland in Wales which we are using to tell the story of wood, woodland, workers and soldiers in the First World War. A huge percentage of Wales’ ancient woodland was felled for a wide range of uses in the Great War. Ammunition cases, vehicle bodies, gun carriages, matches, pit props, even hazel hurdles were used to build the walls of trenches. Wales is, in many ways, still feeling the environmental impact of a war that wreaked havoc on soldiers’ and communities’ lives.”
“The creation of the Coed Ffos Las has cost around £1.2m in total. The Woodland Trust is hugely grateful to everyone who supported our fundraising appeal for the site, to our lead partner in the project, Sainsbury’s, to Welsh Government’s Plant! initiative and the players of the National Lottery, through the Heritage Lottery Fund, all of which have generously supported different aspects of the project.”
The First World War Centenary Woods project is supported by the Trust’s lead partner Sainsbury's, helping to plant millions of native trees to commemorate the First World War. Mike Coupe, the company’s CEO, said: “We’re pleased to support such a fitting memorial to those affected by the First World War. It’s important to our customers and colleagues, and commemorative to the colleagues who fell during World War One.
Y Dywysoges Frenhinol yn agor Coed Ffos Las, Coedwig Canmlwyddiant y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf yng Nghymru, heddiw
Mae hi wedi cymryd pedair blynedd o waith caled. Mae cannoedd lawer o bobl leol gan gynnwys plant wedi plannu'r coed. Yn awr mae ei Huchelder Brenhinol, y Dywysoges Frenhinol wedi agor Coed Ffos Las yn ffurfiol. Dyma Goedwig Canmlwyddiant y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf yng Nghymru, yng Nghwm Gwendraeth yn Sir Gaerfyrddin. Hon yw’r goedwig fwyaf newydd y mae Coed Cadw (Woodland Trust) wedi ei phlannu yng Nghymru mae’n rhan o brosiect Coed Canmlwyddiant y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf sydd â’i fryd ar blannu miliynnau o goed brodorol i goffau’r Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf.
Fe ymunodd oddeutu 40 o westeion â’r Dywysoges Frenhinol ar 2 Gorffennaf. Fe welson nhw arddangosfeydd oedd wedi cael eu trefnu i amlygu rôl hollbwysig coetir a choed yn y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Fe fu ceffylau gwedd yn aredig y tir, fe fu bobl yn gwneud gwaith coed gwyrdd ac fe fu gof yn gweithio. Roedd y 157 Royal Logistics Corp yn bresennol hefyd. Cwmni yw hwn a grëwyd o ganlyniad i'r Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Maen nhw wedi helpu plannu'r coed yng Nghoed Ffos Las ac maen nhw’n falch fod y Dywysoges Frenhinol noddwr iddyn nhw.
Wedyn, fe wnaeth ei Huchelder Frenhinol ddatgluddio plac sy’n dwyn enw'r cerflun ceffyl rhyfel, sy'n ffurfio nodwedd goffaol ar y safle. Wedi'i greu o ddur Corten gan y dylunydd Steve Tomlinson, fe gafodd y cerflun ei fedyddio Yr Arwr / Hero, ar ôl y gerdd a enillodd y Gadair i Hedd Wyn yn Eisteddfod Genedlaethol 1917. Dewiswyd yr enw gan Jane Hutt, a oedd gynt yn Arweinydd y Tŷ yng Nghynulliad Cenedlaethol Cymru, o syniadau a awgrymwyd mewn cystadleuaeth gyhoeddus a drefnwyd yr haf diwethaf, y cymerodd bron i gant o bobl ran ynddi hi.
Dywedodd Natalie Buttriss, Cyfarwyddwr Cymru Coed Cadw: "Rwy'n falch iawn i groesawu'r Dywysoges Frenhinol i Goed Ffos Las. Gan weithio gyda'r gymuned leol a chyda chefnogaeth ein haelodau a'n noddwyr, rydym wedi creu coetir newydd sy’n hardd ac yn ingol, sy'n cynnwys 90,000 o goed brodorol. Mae yna berllan hefyd, cychod gwenyn, pwll dwr, ardal o goetir y gellir ei brysgoedio, mannau agored i fwynhau'r golygfeydd panoramig yn ogystal â'r cerflun ceffyl rhyfel fel nodwedd goffaol.
"Coedwig unigryw yng Nghymru yw Coed Ffos Las. Rydym yn ei defnyddio i adrodd stori coed, coetir, gweithwyr a milwyr yn y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Torrwyd canran enfawr o goetir hynafol Cymru ar gyfer ystod eang o ddefnyddiau yn y Rhyfel Mawr. Defnyddiwyd coed i wneud bocsys ar gyfer bwledi, cyrff cerbydau, cerbydau gwn, matsys, pyst pyllau a hyd yn oed clwydi cyll i adeiladu waliau'r ffosydd. Mae Cymru, mewn sawl ffordd, yn dal i deimlo effaith amgylcheddol y rhyfel, a gododd aflonyddwch ar fywydau milwyr a chymunedau."
"Fe gostiodd tua £1.2m i greu Coed Ffos Las. Mae Coed Cadw’n hynod ddiolchgar i bawb a gefnogodd ein hapêl codi arian ar gyfer y safle, i'n prif bartner yn y prosiect Sainsbury's, i brosiect Plant! gan Lywodraeth Cymru, a chwaraewyr y Loteri Genedlaethol, trwy Gronfa Dreftadaeth y Loteri. Mae pob un ohonynt wedi cefnogi gwahanol agweddau o'r prosiect, a hynny’n hael."
Cefnogir prosiect Coed y Canmlwyddiant gan gwmni Sainsbury's, prif bartner Coed Cadw. Mae hyn wedi golygu plannu miliynau o goed brodorol i goffáu'r Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Dywed Mike Coupe, Prif Swyddog Gweithredol y cwmni: "Rydym yn falch o gefnogi cofeb mor addas i'r rhai yr effeithiwyd arnynt gan y Rhyfel Byd Cyntaf. Mae'n bwysig i'n cwsmeriaid a'n cydweithwyr, ac mae’n coffáu i'n cydweithwyr a syrthiodd yn yr Ryfel Byd Cyntaf. "

This used to be a Zodys Department Store in Garden Grove, California, I remember it being closed around 1985, remodeled and opened as a Pavillions/Vons Supermarket for years then closed around 2002-2003. This view was actually the Zodys front entrance but when Pavillions opened the entrance was moved to the other side and this became the back (delivery door). From what I've heard this was the first Zodys store, (would like to know if it is for sure). I remember before it was remodeled the exterior was a greenish color and had Z's around the store.

CHESTER GOULD
Chester Gould / DICK TRACY (November 20 ,1900 –May 11 ,1985 ) was a U.S. cartoonist and the creator of the Dick Tracy comic strip , which he wrote and drew from 1931 to 1977 . Gould was known for his use of colorful, often monstrous, villains .
Early years
Chester Gould was born and raised in Pawnee, Oklahoma . In 1919 , his family moved to Stillwater, Oklahoma where he attended Oklahoma A & M (now Oklahoma State University ) and was a member of the Lambda Chi Alpha Fraternity, until 1921 . That year, he moved to Chicago where he transferred to Northwestern University . He graduated from Northwestern in 1923. Fascinated by the comics since childhood, Gould quickly found work as a cartoonist and was hired by the William Randolph Hearst 's Chicago Evening American newspaper for whom he produced his first comic strips "Fillum Fables" beginning in 1924 and "The Radio Catts". He also produced a topical strip about Chicago, "Why It's a Windy City." Gould married Edna Gauger in 1926 and their daughter, Jean, was born in 1927.
Dick Tracy
In 1931 , Gould was hired as a cartoonist with the Chicago Tribune and introduced the Dick Tracy cartoon. He drew the comic strip for the next 46 years from his home in Woodstock, Illinois . His work on the strip won him the Reuben Award for 1959 and 1977. He was also given a Special Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America in 1980.
Gould's stories were rarely extensively preplanned as he preferred to improvise his stories as he drew them. While fans praised this style as creating exciting stories, it sometimes created awkward plot developments that were difficult to resolve. A notorious case was when Gould had Tracy trapped in an inescapable deathtrap in a caisson . Gould first depicted Tracy addressing Gould personally and having the cartoonist magically extract him. It was a move that his publisher, Joseph Patterson , personally vetoed and ordered a redraw of the sequence.
Gould visited the workshop of an engineer friend named Al Gross who invented the walkie-talkie , a portable two-way radio and the pager . Gross was working on a wrist-watch version of the two-way radio which he showed to Gould. Gould asked Al Gross if he could use this concept in his Dick Tracy comic strip. Gross said yes and in January 1946, Dick Tracy started wearing the wrist radio. [2] Gould created a cartoon character named Brilliant, an engineer who worked for a company run by cartoon character Diet Smith. Brilliant was modeled after Al Gross. Whenever Gould needed a futuristic invention that his cartoon characters could use, Al Gross would give him ideas such as the video security camera, handheld video camera, and wrist video camera.
Late in the period of Gould's control of it, the Tracy strip was widely criticized as too right-wing in character, and as excessively supportive of the police . This commentary argued that Gould was using the strip to push his own right-wing agenda such as attacking the rights of the accused at the expense of storytelling. Additionally, the late 1950s saw a changing newspaper readership that was perhaps less tolerant of Gould's grotesque style. Whereas in the 1940s when Gould introduced an odoriferous, chewing tobacco spitting character, B.O. Plenty, with little significant complaint from readers; the later introduction of the crooked lawyer named "Flyface" and his relatives, all of whom were surrounded by swarming flies at all times, created a negative reader reaction strong enough for papers to drop the strip in large numbers. There was then a dramatic change in the strip's paradigm to feature science fiction plot elements, with regular visits to the moon. This led to an increasingly fantastic procession of enemies and stories that largely abandoned the strip's format of urban crime drama. The Apollo 11 moon landing prompted Gould to abandon this phase. Finally, Dick Tracy was beset by the overall trend in newspaper comics away from strips with continuing story lines and toward those whose stories are largely resolved within one series of panels.
Gould, his characters and improbable plots were satirized in the Fearless Fosdick sequences (supposedly drawn by "Lester Gooch") appearing within Al Capp 's comic strip Li'l Abner ; a notable villain was Bomb Face , a gangster whose head was a bomb.
Gould retired December 25, 1977 and died May 11, 1985 of congestive heart failure. His life and creations are memorialized in the Chester Gould-Dick Tracy Museum in Woodstock, Illinois.
