Only a very few survived the Great War – they headed towards places that had no value or valuables and were therefore not interesting to fight over. Here, a group of older Gen-Z have settled – they don’t know each other and know very little about life in the countryside – no internet, radio, TV, shops – everything is different and difficult. But they may still have hope for love.

Statement of Significance
Description of Historic Place:
Queen Elizabeth Elementary School is a complex of buildings comprised of: a one two-storey English vernacular building from 1940; two one-storey Modern buildings from 1957; one one-storey building from 1964; open asphalt playing areas; a formal driveway; and mature planting beds. It is in the residential neighbourhood of Point Grey, and is adjacent to a large, open playing field and Pacific Spirit Regional Park.
Heritage Value:
Queen Elizabeth Elementary School is important for its cultural and aesthetic significance, particularly for the contrasting building styles of the 1940 building and of its post-war additions that responded differently to the pedagogy of their times.
Built over a period of 25 years, the school is culturally important as the embodiment of changes in educational values. The 1940 building represents the then-new philosophy that schools should be child-centered and functional – it was considered to be the first of its type built in the province, unique for its English cottage-type design and its full-size gymnasium, auditorium and dressing room facilities. The 1957 and 1964 additions reflect a more systematized, practical, scientific, and more democratic approach to education and reflect the intention to provide clean and efficient spaces that embodied the ideals of social mobility and equality. It is indicative of the significant change in cultural attitudes between the early 1940s and the 1950s that, while the official opening of the 1940 building was presided over by then Premier T.D. Pattullo, the official opening of the 1957 buildings was presided over by the city health officer.
The school site’s cultural significance also lies in its representation of how, after 1940, the Vancouver School Board architects accepted the Modernist cause and its potential for standardizing school designs. Compared to the 1940 building that is from an earlier stylistic era, the 1957 and 1964 Modern buildings signify the chance to begin anew, partly by rejecting stylistic historicism and ornamental symbolism. It is this obvious difference in design outlook that offers present day observers such a valuable commentary on the history of school design over the pre- and post-World War Two era.
Other important cultural values of this school are the combined memories and experiences of past students and teachers, the continued use of this site as a school complex from 1940 to the current day, and the continued use of its name: 'Queen Elizabeth Elementary School'.
Aesthetically, Queen Elizabeth Elementary School is important for its juxtaposition of two design idioms, and for highlighting how little the Modernist building makes reference to the original outstanding school building, conveying the cultural predisposition at that time to leave the old world behind. The school contributes significantly to the streetscape and to the neighbourhood as it is on a rise in the land and overlooks both a large open sports field and Pacific Spirit Regional Park to the south and west.

Character-Defining Elements:
The character-defining elements of Queen Elizabeth Elementary School include:
Siting, Context and Landscape
- The orientation of the 1940 building to the 1957 and 1964 buildings
- The relationship of all of the buildings to their site and to 16th Avenue and Camosun Street
- The relationship of all of the buildings to the large open playing field to the west
- Continued use as a school
Architectural Qualities
- Contrasting design idioms between 1940 building and later post-World War II additions
Architectural elements of the 1940 building:
- Informal, picturesque assemblage of wings
- Brick facing at base of walls, wood, and stucco, all in an essentially domestic idiom
- The two front entrances differentiated from rest of building through their twinning, and their flanking of the formal vehicular roundabout and pedestrian entry paths
- Polygonal forms and turret-like roofs of front entrances
- Window and door designs
- Reverse board-and-batten cladding
- Faux half-timbering
Architectural elements of the 1957 and 1964 buildings:
- Simple shed roof construction
- Bank of wood windows with alternating top and bottom opening lites
- Use of reverse board-and-batten siding which is a simple rendering of a detail found on the 1940 structure at its front entrances
- Typical covered play area with glulam/steel post structure
Landscape elements
- Covered play area of the 1957 structure
July 15, 196/365- Slow economy or not it seems the road crews are always busy, even year 'round here in the South.
Funny part behind this photo is that I just pulled over quickly when I saw the photo op, got out of my truck with my camera and took the photo. When I turned around there was one of the surveyors taking a photo of me taking this photo and then a closeup of my tag. He didn't ask why I took the photo and I didn't offer, the crew is probably still worried that I was a spy for OSHA or something.
The I Have To Shoot What?! Challenge for Week 46: Valued Item
This week, I took the liberty of putting just a few items together that may not mean much monetarily (if anything at all) but signify much meaning in my heart. On the left is one of many heart-shaped rocks that Greg finds for me whenever we go to the beach or anywhere there are rocks on the ground... On the right is the perfume we purchased on our honeymoon in Bermuda. And in the background is a scarf that belonged to my mother's mother, who I never had the chance to meet as she passed when my mother was just 19...
Apparently, someone at Costa coffee in Southampton decided that to show the luxury of the brand, they'd print receipts on huge bits of useless paper and have small chocolate brownies.
Oh yes, I'm impressed by wastes of paper and stingy portions.
(The brownie was delicious, and the coffee strong - btw)

New in my collection is this year-1955 Graflex Graphic 35 range-finder camera made in the U.S.A.. I sourced the camera from an eBay seller in Italy and arrived safely n Lyon, France, on July 28, 2026 with its original leather ever-ready bag in standing collection condition. The Graphic 35 has some very unusual features with an eye-catching design and a remarkable construction quality.
Graflex (originally the Folmer & Schwing Manufacturing Company, founded in 1887 in New York) had long been renowned for its large- and medium-format press cameras (notably the Speed Graphic), which became the standard for photojournalism in the first half of the 20th century. After its acquisition by Kodak in 1905–1907, the works were moved to Rochester, New York. In 1926, following antitrust rulings, Graflex became independent again and continued production in Rochester until the early 1970s.
By the mid-1950s, large-format press cameras were losing ground to smaller, easier-to-use 35 mm cameras aimed at amateurs. Graflex responded by entering the 35 mm market. It had already marketed the Ciro 35 (derived from the earlier Cee-ay 35 of Candid Camera Corp., acquired via Ciro). In 1955 this design was thoroughly reworked into the Graphic 35.
Launch and Production
* Introduction: First shipments on 25 February 1955; press presentation on 8 March 1955 in New York.
* Manufacture: Body and final assembly in Rochester, N.Y. Lenses and shutters were imported from West Germany (Rodenstock or occasionally Enna “Graflar” 50 mm f/3.5 or f/2.8 lenses; Prontor-SVS leaf shutter, 1 s to 1/300 s + B, M/X sync, self-timer).
* Production period: Roughly August 1954 to July 1957 (sometimes listed as ending in 1958). Advertising continued into late 1960.
* Volume: Approximately 68,000 units (Graflex internal figures list 68,269 cameras distributed). Serial numbers began at 550,000 and later restarted at 1,100,000.
Introductory prices were about $77.50 (f/3.5) to $98–99.50 (f/2.8), making it one of the more affordable fully featured 35 mm rangefinders of its day.
Distinctive Features
* Push-button focusing on either side of the lens (“wing focusing”), invented by Graflex instrument maker Louis M. Traino, who received a $4,000 company award (roughly $35,000–40,000 in today’s money). A “Visi-Ready” distance scale was visible from above.
* Front-mounted, sideways-pull shutter-release lever.
* Spectramatic (later Universal Spectramatic) flash system, devised by engineering director Vernon Whitman: colour-coded bands that simplified aperture selection according to distance and guide number.
* Separate viewfinder and split-image rangefinder windows; film advance by knob (not coupled to shutter cocking, allowing intentional double exposures).
* Solid die-cast metal body with satin chrome finish and silver-grey leatherette covering (some later examples darker).
These features—especially the push-button focusing—were heavily promoted and helped the camera sell strongly in its first year.
After 1957–58 Graflex shifted to Japanese-made models (the Graphic/Century 35 series by Kowa, the Graphic Jet, etc.). The original Rochester-built Graphic 35 remains a characteristic mid-1950s American design: robust, unusually ergonomic in its controls, and still relatively affordable on the used market today.
It is one of the few non-Kodak 35 mm cameras actually made in Rochester and illustrates Graflex’s attempt to adapt to the postwar 35 mm amateur boom.
I did not find at now the optical formula of the lens. The lens takes 27mm screw-on filter and the external diameter is 32mm. With a little adaptation (rind made in a film canister cap...) one could fit the French FOCA filter push-on 36mm.
It seems that no lens cap was proposed for the Graphic 35. With a cap of Kodak 35mm canister, I made a plastic one to protect the front lens.
The range-finder is slightly off calibrated at infinite but it easy to correct the small shift to set the correct value on the distance scale that is only engraved in feet.

It was the evening before the match. On 14 August 2013 Scotland were down at Wembley to play England at Association Rules Football. This brought out a few more colours to the feathers of the Edinburgh Fringe. The glories of the oft reputed great game evade me. Dressing up to drink, sing and dance I can see the value in that. Choosing to join 80,000 others in a celebration of sport is a challenge for me, taking photos of the Grassmarket on the night before was an absolute pleasure.

If you have difficulty identifying the darkest and lightest values in an image, try "posterizing" a black and white conversion. In this example I've posterized the image at four levels, so I see black, white, and two grays. The black shows me where the darkest darks are located in the reference photo and the white indicates the lightest lights. Just remember that YOU make decisions and can change values as you paint if you like. Don't be handcuffed to the reference photo!

African Beads:
;The earliest Africans made beads as “fetishes”, charms, talisman and amulets for protection and adornments. The first materials were shell, stone, wood, bone, seeds, amber, ivory, teeth, clay, metals, etc. Beads were highly valuable and were also used as currency.
Trading could be done for food, livestock, etc. Beads evolve into a visual language that express rank, spirituality initiation, used to communicate culture value important to the people way of life. African people have had a special relationship with beads for thousands of years.
No other people on the planet used as many beads or in such abundance as African and the importance of the beads was not it shape, color, size or place of manufacture but the value that had been assign to it by privies generations
.Long before the first European return to Africa in the 1400’s century we were adorning ourselves with beads. Many of the beads are becoming increasingly rare and difficult to fine and some are no longer available, as worldwide demand for the beads increases.
" African Trade Beads":
this term typically applies to beads made predominately in European countries from the late 1400s through to the early 1900s, beads traded in Africa, Americas and other counties.
This "trade" period was from the mid 1800s through the early 1900s; millions of these beads were produced and traded in Africa. The Europeans dominated the African bead market. All beads are from the collection of MBAD/ABA African Bead Museum
The Beads were re- introduced to the American market in the late 1960s, by young peace core volunteer returning from Africa.
The beads became associated with the Hippie movement as symbols of love and peace. Today these beads are popular in contemporary jewelry and as collectable items. Beads are from the collection of MBAD/ABA African Bead Museum.

The NHS Values Summit brings together a diverse range of people and perspectives to create a greater understanding of how people’s differences, social status and cultural expectations can affect their experiences of health and care.
It challenges and inspires people to think about the role of ethical leadership in improving the health and wellbeing of local communities, staff and patients and how the NHS can increase the social value of its activities.
Welcoming representatives from health and social care, alongside more than 20 partners from the voluntary and community sector, this event (in Leeds, Yorkshire) was a template for future NHS Values Summits, which will be held twice a year in different locations across the country. Each event will explore a different theme relating to equality, health inequalities and human rights. The next gathering will take place in May 2013.
