this is why photography is so intriguing to me. why it fills me up. it is the single moment when all falls into place and is captured. looking back on this day, if she had not been in her gown and the sun didn't fall just perfectly, or the rain didn't shower... her shadow would not have made a heart... happy moments & shutter clicks...
Ávila - city capital of Avila province in central Spain, in the Castillian Mountains at an altitude of 1128 m above sea level. The city was founded by Celtyberów and Christianized in the first century. After three centuries of Moorish rule, won them King Alfonso VI in 1085. After the reconquest, the city re-live the Christian knights. They began work on the most characteristic and representative building in the city - Las Murallas (walls). They have an average height of 3.6 m and 2.7 m thick, and now account for nearly 2.7 km in length, 9 gates led to the city and 90 towers increased the defense walls. The city is linked to St. Teresa of Avila A notable landmark is the Basilica of San Vicente commemorating St. Vincent of Saragossa. It is famous for the unusual tomb placed under a canopy in the oriental style.

Ávila - stolica prowincji Ávila w środkowej Hiszpanii, w Górach Kastylijskich na wysokości 1128 m n.p.m. Miasto założone zostało przez Celtyberów, a schrystianizowane w I wieku. Po trzech wiekach rządów Maurów, zdobył je król Alfons VI w 1085 r. Po rekonkwiście, w mieście ponownie zamieszkali chrześcijańscy rycerze. Rozpoczęli oni prace nad najbardziej charakterystyczną i reprezentatywną budowlą miasta - Las Murallas (mury obronne). Mają one średnio 3,6 m wysokości i 2,7 m grubości i liczą sobie prawie 2,7 km długości. Do miasta wiodło 9 bram, a 90 wież zwiększało obronność murów. Z miastem jest związana święta Teresa z Ávili
Znaczącym zabytkiem jest Basilica San Vincente upamiętniająca św. Wincentego z Saragossy. Słynie ona z niezwykłego grobowca umieszczonego pod baldachimem w orientalnym stylu.

The East Entrance Road curves around the base of Lake Butte as it approaches the shores of Yellowstone Lake. A wildfire in 2003 burned the forest in the Lake Butte area which accounts for the burned trees at the bend in the road.
I just happened to see her in hay field by edge of my yard.
I managed to quickly open door and call to her as she looked around a got a few shots before she walked to woods in background. Shortly after this day she gave birth to two beautiful fawns. I have seen them nearly a hundred times now. I used to keep account but finally gave up!!! :-)
This picture of the Canale Grande, Venice, was taken in early August 2007 as a panorama consisting of 11 frames. When I rediscovered the files, I thought, some new Photoshop processing techniques I didn't know back then might help the files to become a nice picture.

In recognition of my channel reaching the milestone of 1,000,000 views, I’ve decided to dig an image out from the modern archive. Not taking into account my profile picture of a youthful 14 year old in the hot seat of 59206 from what seems a long time ago, which has been my avatar since day one, this was the first shot I added to Flickr and it's certainly not a shabby one!
57605 "Totnes Castle" approaches Kennaway Tunnel on its departure from Dawlish with the 2C51 17.50 Exeter St Davids-Penzance First Great Western “Veg-Ex" on the longest day of 2014, Saturday 21 June. The original upload only ever achieved 410 views and 3 faves. Apparently, it was also my favourite image at the time (little to say that is no longer the case); a far cry from the quality of my pictures today. As an editor's note, I used to have a policy of deleting original JPEG's once I had finished editing (sounds a bit like the BBC), but remarkably this one was kept intact, so I was able to have another go at polishing it up (Re-uploaded image).
Finca Alejandria, Km 18 Via Cali-Buenaventura, Cali, Colombia.
The Booted Racket-tail is an Andean hummingbird found from Colombia and Venezuela south to Bolivia. This is a spectacular hummingbird - males have a short blackish bill, metallic green body, black wings, and elaborate tail. The tail is long and green, and the central two rectrices are extended with bare rachises tipped with blunt "rackets". Females are white below with green speckles and a white-tipped tail lacking racketed elaboration.
Both sexes of Booted Racket-tail show puffy white leg feathers. This very small hummingbird favors humid woodland edges in mid-elevations in the Andes.

Olá amigos, com o dólar na estratosfera aqui no Brasil, e depois de 6 anos, não consegui renovar minha PRO. E eles vão apagar minhas fotos!! Uma vergonha!
Hi friends, with the dollar in the stratosphere here in Brazil, and after 6 years, I haven't been able to renew my PRO. And they're going to delete my photos!! What a shame!
...Diese Worte drangen aus dem Mund eines weiteren Fotografen (leider immer noch kein Flickr-Account) in einer scheinbar aussichtslosen Zwickmühle. Doch wie ist es dazu gekommen? Rollen wir alles von hinten auf: Donnerstagabend, ich hatte viele Ideen den letzten Sommertag des Jahres 2024 sinnvoll zu verwenden. Es konkretisierte sich auf das Altmühltal - mal wieder. Im Tal mit dem stillsten Fluss Bayerns waren drei 111er Umläufe hintereinander angekündigt. Doch am Frühen nächsten Morgen entschied ich mich doch, recht kurzfristig dagegen. Grund für diese, im Nachhinein dumme Entscheidung waren die 111er. Zwei von ihnen hatte ich schon perfekt, eine andere sprach mich von dem Lackzustand absolut nicht an.
Am Vortag ist die neue Bayernbahn 139 314 mit einem Kesselzug in die Fächerstadt. Ich spekulierte auf eine Rückleistung. Also setzte ich mich um 5:30 an meinem Rechner, normalerweise schalte ich ihn um diese Uhrzeit erst aus. Da ich wusste, dass die Rückleistung immer übers Filstal verkehrte, plante ich mir irgendwas zusammen. Zugegeben, um diese respektlose Uhrzeit habe ich nicht viel nachgedacht, so übersah ich einen wichtigen Faktor. Das Filstal war zwischen Göppingen und Geislingen voll gesperrt. Ohne von meinem Schicksal zu wissen, legte ich mich nochmals ins Bett. Nach einer Stunde bitter benötigtem Schlaf schaute ich in die lokale Sichtungsgruppe. Und tatsächlich, mein Poker ist aufgegangen! Schnell Laufweg, Zugnummer und Zeiten rausgefunden, und 'ab dafür'. Oder auch nicht. Erst jetzt bemerkte ich, dass der Zug ja gar nicht übers Filstal rollt. Die Murrbahn war als Ausweich-Strecke gewählt worden. Hier verkehrte der Zug in sehr bescheidenem Licht. Da der Zug nach dem Kopf machen im Stuttgarter Hafen auch mit guten - 25 unterwegs war, stand nur in Fichtenberg das Licht. Schnell dorthin aufgebrochen, der Zug war schließlich nur gute 15min hinter unserem MÄÄX 90. Mitleerweile war auch Fotograf Sven eingetroffen. Gemeinsam zog es uns in den Garten der Neuapostolischen Kirche Fichtenberg. Dort angekommen, fanden wir uns leider im Urwald von Fichtenberg wieder. Also improvisieren, auf Google Maps zeigte sich noch ein anderer weg nah an der Strecke. Hingerannt, nur um zu bemerken, dass hier der Urwald auch schon im sehr fortgeschrittenen Stadium war. Kurze Zeit später Rollte der neue Stern am Himmel von der Bayernbahn an uns vorbei. Ein Fail wie aus dem Bilderbuch.
Geknickt ging es für uns wieder zum Bahnhof, wir waren die einzigen zwei Fahrgäste die reisen wollten. Der RE 90 rauschte ohne halt vorbei, die Stimmung war am Tiefpunkt. Andere Fotografen zeigten mir Stolz ihre Bilder von der nur knapp 21km weiter südlich gelegenen Remsbahn, wo zur selben Zeit der CBB Ersatzzug nach Nürnberg eierte. Langsam schlich der MEX Nach Gaildorf ein, wir stiegen ein, im Geilsten Dorf der Welt aber nicht aus, sondern erfreuten uns am Stimmungslockerer Instagram Reels.
Dann wurde es auf einmal hektisch. Zwei Züge die ich noch nicht erwähnt hatte, sind im Zulauf. Einmal eine DB Bahnbau 233 genannt „Tiger“ und einmal eine 111 der Smartrail. Wir beide wussten nicht welche Smartrail 111 auf der Leistung war. Deswegen dachten wir beide erst an die 233, da diese merh als selten ist. Wir schreiben ungefähr 12:30, als wir bemerkten, dass auf der Smartrail Leistung 111 017 vorgespannt war. Und damit war die Denkarbeit freigegeben. Sie endete erst gegen 15:20. In meiner ganzen zeit als Fotograf stand ich noch nie vor so einer Schwierigen Entscheidung. „Was können wir machen, können wir ein Auto organisieren, hoffentlich bekommt die 233 noch Plus, wo würdest du die 233 machen, ja aber die 017 hat halt auch was“.
Das alles waren Gedanken, die uns durch den Kopf zischten. Jeden angerufen den ich kannte, der noch mehr Information liefen konnte. Der Traum, beide Züge mit Sonne vor den Sucher zu bekommen schien auf einmal wieder möglich, als ich beide FPLOS im Bahnhofs Gewimmel von Stuttgart verglich. Bauz 34061 15:39 Bietigheim, DGS 77577 17:02 Schorndorf. Demnach ging es nach Asperg zwischen Apfelbäume, um uns das Erste mal auf die Lauer zu legen. Doch, die Stimmung bliebt angespannt. Fast Minütlich telefonierte ich mit Malek-88, der den Zug auf Höhe Helmsheim fotografieren wollte, zu gleichen Zeit checkte Sven jeden möglichen Sichtungskorridor, da der „Russe“ verdächtig im System verschwunden war. Im Gegensatz zum Ostprodukt, baute das Westprodukt immer mehr Verspätung ab. „Oida, das kann doch echt nicht sein, an machen Tagen rollt nichts, und heute rollt alles auf einmal“. Worte von Sven, denen nichts hinzuzufügen ist. Durch all die Argumentationen wer jetzt welchen Zug fotografiert knatterte auf einmal der Rote Flitzer bestehend aus Fünf Schienenbussen in den Rücken. Kurz darauf folgte ein Anruf von Malek, gefolgt von einem Foto auf Whatsapp. Der Zug war Helmsheim durch. Nun waren wir im Besitz von Fotos beider Züge. Ab jetzt begannen wir alles zu analysieren was zu analysieren war, „017 Vordere Schere oben“, „Der Tiger ist frisch gewaschen“… nach weiteren guten 15 Minuten legte sich dann Sven mit den Worten „Es muss auch Opfer geben, ich mach den dreckes Russen“ auf die 233 fest. Nun war ich unter Zugzwang entschied mich dann aber für die 111. Demnach ging es dann für mich recht zügig zum Bahnhof, um Kurs auf die KBS 786 zu nehmen.
Dort bin ich dann auch gute 50 Minuten später angekommen, und nach kurzen Recheneinheiten in der S-Bahn kam ich zum Entschluss, dass die gute 017 im Block hinter dem MEX, allerdings vor der S-bahn sein müsste. Dadurch konnte ich ohne hetzte zur Stelle laufen, wo sich schon weitere Fotografen positioniert hatten. Das Wetter war prächtig, beste Voraussetzungen. Und so schoss man, um kurz vor 17:00 Uhr das erste brauchbare Bild des Tages, obwohl man schon seit 7.30 auf den Beinen war. Die Zufriedenheit bei allen anwesenden Fotografen war sichtlich erkennbar, vor allem wegen der ZZA.
Nach der Durchfahrt ging es wieder rasch zum Bahnsteig, denn es gab doch noch eine Möglichkeit den Tiger zu Fotografieren. In die Nächste S2 (+15) gesprungen und durch die Röhre bis Rohr. In Rohr traf man auch wieder Sven an, der mir erst einmal eine Packung Brownies übergab, ehe die Neugier nach den Fotos alles andere in den Schatten stelle.
Rohr – mein Heimatbahnhof – Hier eine Ludmilla? Surreal. Die Abfahrtmeldung aus Böblingen war Erleichterung und Unheil zugleich, von zweiteres wussten wir zu dem Zeitpunkt nur nichts. „Üst Berghau durch“ Fünf Minuten später. Doch, es kommt wie es kommen musste. Da Rohr einen Mittelbahnsteig besitzt, werden die Züge auf der Fernbahn von anhaltenden S-Bahnen verdeckt. 430 257 als Führendes Tfz bremste punktgenau auf die H-Tafel. Dahinter dieselte der Großdiesel dem Ziel Vaihingen entgegen. So wurde der Tag der mit einem Fail startete, mit einem Fail abgerundet.

Photo taken on our trip to Loire Valley in France. The Château de Chenonceau was dog friendly and she was able to walk around the beautiful gardens and was able to be carried inside the castle. It also had the maze garden that Laika had fun running around in circles.

This beautiful rare flower is the wild Pyramidal Orchid { Anacramptis pyramidalis } and it grows on dry grassland, chalk downs and stabilised sand dunes.I was lucky to spot it yesterday growing on the side of the road as it was the profusion of yellowish foamy flower around it, that attracted my view. They are called Ladies Bedstraw { Galium verum } and they smells like new mown hay. It was once used for stuffing mattress`s and the term ladies is said to refer to Queen Elizabeth 1st who it is said had her mattress`s stuffed with it. By all accounts its the closest she actually got to an actual stuffing though Ive heard rumours!!!!! Lol
So an ordinary simple little no frills pic with a nice little tale.
The best ones really!
Right, anybody fancy a roll in the grass? For Heavens sake will ya mind the Orchid!!!!
Do hope you will favour my photo.
So lets sing! All together now;

Update;
Im amazed how popular this simple photo is. I didnt take any trouble with it in the least. I was passing by on the opposite side of the road and I just went over and took 3 pics. I removed a few blades of strawy grass first that were in the way. I was going to use a macro lens but I didnt bother.
Im passing by there again this evening so Ill have a look. I doubt if any more will come up as the do grow singly and are extremely fussy about soil conditions.I think its the simplicity of it that makes it and of course the grass and the foil of yellow flowers definitely add to it.
I do want to thank all of you for all your faves and wonderful words which inspire me greatly!
Hugs,
P@t.
I went out to Donabate on Tuesday 4th July to look for some more Orchids. I must have walked 10 miles but I was well rewarded as I found one area where there were about 20 in all and they were in varying shades of purple. Perhaps the colour has to do with soil ph. I will put up a collage of them and I think Ill print a few as well. If anyone wants a copy, let me know.
Catch you all soon, P@t.

Rondom het behoud van de voormalig NS 466 is Stcihting de Karel Foundation opgericht. Behalve het behoud van dit markante treinstel wat in november 2019 zijn introductierit reed is het ook te huren door gezelschappen voor charitatieve doeleinden. Eén van de goede doelen die hiermee worden gesteund is de KWF kankerbestrijding. Een prachtig alternatief wat je eigenlijk niet anders dan toe kan juichen!
Voor 28 juni was een ruim 600 kilomter lange conditierit voorzien waarbij de Stichting fotografen aanmoedigde op een veilige en bewuste wijze foto en/of videomaterieel van 'De Karel' te maken en dit vervolgens beschikbaar te stellen. Ook ikzelf besloot daaraan mee te doen waarop ik na mailcontact voorzien werd van de tijden waarop het veteraantje zou rijden. Hierbij werd gekozen voor de Zeeuwse lijn aangezien Plan V en zeker ook de 466 hier een rijke historie kent.
Met helaas een onfortuinlijke fotowolk op de heenweg werd vol goede moed koers gezet naar het Zeeuwse en circa 15 minuten voor doorkomst stelling ingenomen langs het spoor nabij 's-Heer Arendskerke. Strak volgens schema en in een wonderlijk perfect zongat passeert "de Karel' 466 als trein 33222 onderweg van Vlissingen naar Amsterdam Centraal het drietal fotografen. Hoewel Vlissingen al ver lijkt zou de reis nog verder gaan naar Enkhuizen alvornens de dag wederom in de hoofdstad te eindigen.
The main biblical accounts of Hezekiah's reign are found in 2 Kings, Isaiah, and 2 Chronicles. Proverbs 25:1 commences a collection of Solomon's proverbs which were "copied by the officials of King Hezekiah of Judah". His reign is also referred to in the books of the prophets Jeremiah, Hosea, Micah, and Isaiah. The books of Hosea and Micah record that their prophecies were made during Hezekiah's reign. The book of Isaiah records when Hezekiah sought Isaiah's help when Judah was under siege by Sennacherib of the Neo-Assyrian Empire.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hezekiah
Основні біблійні розповіді про правління Єзекії містяться в 2 Царів, Ісаї та 2 Хронік. Приповісті 25:1 розпочинають збірку приповістей Соломона, які були «переписані чиновниками Єзекії, царя Юди». Його правління також згадується в книгах пророків Єремії, Осії, Михея та Ісаї. У книгах Осії та Михея сказано, що їхні пророцтва були зроблені під час правління Єзекії. У книзі Ісаї описано, як Єзекія звернувся за допомогою до Ісаї, коли Юдея була в облозі Сеннахеріба з Новоассирійської імперії.

It's Guardian Angels day today 02/10/22 so I thought it would be an opportunity to use one of Asha's last photoshoots shot just a few weeks before she passed away. The background is her Ballywhiskin Beach. When I read up on this Guardian Angels Day I was surprised that the Catholic church and other faiths believed in Guardian Angels. I just thought this was something authors created to sell books as I only remember Angels from the bible being more warriors and not what I personally associate angels to be. I have always believed in guardian angels, but I just thought this was my own personal view and not a bibical view. So it was lovely to read that the Church believe in guardian angels. Now I have my own guardian angel who is called Asha.
Surveys have shown that close to 75% of Americans believe in guardian angels. Guardian Angels Day, also known as Guardian Angel Day, is for giving recognition and thanks to the guardian angels in our life, and to do something special to recognize them. It is a day to learn about the role that guardian angels have played in our lives, as well as to learn about the roles they have played in different cultures and religions.
Today also is an official day of the Catholic Church, known as Memorial of the Holy Guardian Angels or the Feast of Guardian Angels. This Catholic festival is celebrated on October 2 each year and is a day to thank God for one's guardian angels. Local celebrations of guardian angels date to the eleventh century CE, and the belief that every human had a guardian angel was widespread in the Catholic church by the twelfth century. The feast was first observed in 1500, by the Franciscan Order.
In 1608, Pope Paul V officially authorized the feast. It originally was a supplement of sorts to the Feast of Saint Michael. In the 1670s, Pope Clement X made October 2 the official date and made the day an obligatory double feast. Leo XIII made it a double major feast in 1883, and since 1976 it has been ranked as an obligatory memorial.
According to Catholic belief, both Christians and non-Christians have a guardian angel assigned to them, that gives them guidance throughout their lives. Guardian angels are from the lowest rank of angels. The angels protect their assigned person from demons and encourage them to do good works. Everyone is reunited with their guardian angel when they reach heaven.
According to beliefs throughout the world, guardian angels may protect people, groups, kingdoms, or countries. The concept of guardian angels goes back to ancient Judaism; in the Hebrew Bible, angels sometimes were given missions to intervene in the affairs of humans, and they are mentioned as being guides and intercessors. Psalm 91:11 is often cited as evidence of guardian angels: "For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways."
The New Testament also mentions angels that go between God and man. By the fifth century CE, the belief in guardian angels was prevalent in Christianity. Belief in guardian angels is largely held in the Anglican Communion, and the Eastern Orthodox Church sees guardian angels as friends and protectors. The Catholic Church's beliefs are as described above. Many other Christian denominations, such as Lutherans and Methodists, have some form of belief in guardian angels.
In Islam, there is a belief in mu'aqqibat, which has to do with guardian angels. Some Muslims believe everyone has two guardian angels—one in front of them and one in back of them. In Zoroastrianism, each person has a guardian angel which guides them throughout their life. The belief in guardian angels crosses cultures and religions, and today everyone who believes in their power gives them thanks.

Een eerdere keer al kwam de zaterdagse actie van Railtraxx in het Antwerpse havengebied al eens onder onze aandacht, ditmaal kwamen we er eigenlijk op uit nadat een aantal treinen rondom Gent onfortuinlijk niet bleken te rijden.
Door het gesloten zijn van de gebruikelijke route treffen we de Athus-shuttle vanuit Krommenhoek eens aan de totaal andere kant van de haven als de Kieldrechtsluis al gepasseerd is maar de Kallosluis nog gepasseerd moet worden. Vervolgens zal de trein, ditmaal getrokken door de 266 031 via Bundel Zuid en de Antigoontunnel koers zetten naar Antwerpen Schijnpoort. Alhier vind een locwissel plaats en zal de trein uiteindelijk getrokken door een duo 186 naar Athus gebracht worden.
Op de achtergrond zijn de kranen zichtbaar van de twee meest noemenswaardige containerterminals op de linkeroever, namelijk DP World en de MSC MPET terminal aan het Deurganckdok, tevens de plaats waar deze trein zijn reis begon. Geheel rechts in beeld is een constructie zichtbaar die toebehoort aan Borealis Kallo, een bedrijf wat zover ik het kan beoordelen geen rol speelt in het spoorgoederenvervoer.
pano merge out of 10 .arw RAW format files. First time I did this ever, and I'm amazed with the clarity and sharpness of the whole photo when you zoom in (I'm so very used to simple mobile panoramas that are way more unsharp and unclear). Sad that You can't zoom in 3x times because I do not have PRO account, but hey, this is nice too.
This is amazing, and so I learned also that you have to have a high processing power because one .dng pano file, made out of 10 raw files, equals cca >1GB size.
This .jpg got to nearly 139MB with 100% quality.
Maybe I'll lower it down do like 90% for more optimized tradeoff between sharpness and file size.
I left it like it is for I don't want to burn my PC but let it cool down :)
enjoy in my first pano uploaded to flickr.
Entering new PANO album.
Taken at the top of the little hill, above lake of Vran, where you can see all this scenery of the sea from one side, and the lake from the other.
EDIT: okay, sooo-u, I've found that size of the image is 34105 x 8947 :D
which is soooo unnecessary (would love to see and to live the times when technology would be that great to be able to show those numbers of pixels). So I made a 2160px resize (by the short edge) and now is more appropriate file size.
I will leave this first version just for flex :) because Flickr is amazing and does not have file size limit.

Hey have you guys noticed the amount of 'contact fishers' lately? I mean these accounts rack up 10-100,000 contacts and they'll likely won't ever show any interest or interact with you. I don't know, I just find it odd to create an account just to rack up views.

6 year old Thoroughbred broodmare. Take a look at her pedigree and you'll see that her female line traces back to the most influential broodmare of the 20th century, La Troienne:

From Wikipedia...
"She produced fourteen foals and 12 of them raced. 10 of those 12 were winners. The first of these was the Champion Black Helen, by Black Toney, born in 1932. Black Helen won the American Derby, the Florida Derby, the Maryland Handicap, and the Coaching Club American Oaks. The second was born in 1934, Biologist, by Bubbling Over who won the 1926 Kentucky Derby. The third was Baby League, born in 1935, again by Bubbling Over, who became the dam of four stakes winners: the great Hall of Fame filly Busher, as well as Mr. Busher, Striking, and Harmonizing. Her fourth winning foal was Big Hurry, another Black Toney filly, born in 1936, and the dam of five stakes winners: Be Fearless, Bridal Flower, The Admiral, Great Captain, and Searching. La Troienne also brought forth the great Hall of Fame colt Bimelech, born in 1937. By Black Toney, Bimlech won the Belmont Stakes, the Preakness Stakes, and placed in the 1940 Kentucky Derby. Big Event came next in 1938, a Blue Larkspur filly and dam of stakes winner Hall of Fame. In 1939, she dropped Businesslike who was the dam of two stakes winners: Busanda (who was the dam of Buckpasser) and Auditing. Then came Besieged by Balladier in 1940, Broke Even in 1941, a colt by Blue Larkspur, Back Yard in 1942, a gelding by Balladier, and in 1944 Bee Ann Mac by Blue Larkspur. Belle Histoire came along in 1945, once more by Blue Larkspur. Belle Histoire was the dam of stakes winner Royal Record. La Troienne's last two foals were Belle of Troy in 1947, again by Blue Larkspur, and the gelding Trojan War in 1948 by Shut Out.
Les Brinsfield, a pedigree expert, wrote: "Anyone who wants can take any daughter of La Troienne (or all of them) and trace them through pedigrees to today's stars. It will be a rare week when there is no stakes winner linebred to La Troienne.""
Donald Mitchell Healey (DMH to friends and fans) was, by all accounts, one of the truly great characters of the motor industry. A pilot in World War I, DMH took to motor racing and rally in the '20s. By the mid-1930s he was designing and driving rally cars for Triumph, and won several important international events. When war broke out in 1939, he devoted himself to the war efforts.
At the conclusion of hostilities, DMH and family (especially his sons, Geoff and Bic) resumed making sports cars, this time under the Healey name. Their first effort, the Healey Silverstone, had an advanced chassis design and simple, aerodynamic bodywork. Lacking the resources (spelled "cash") to develop their own engines, the Healeys used the interesting and reasonably sporting Riley 2-liter twin-cam OHV engine. (Yes, you read that right: two cams, down in the block, each operating a separate bank of pushrods working the rockers of overhead valves.)
But like all racers, DMH wanted more power. The biggest news in the motoring world in those days was the 165-bhp Cadillac OHV V8, a comparatively light-weight and high-revving engine with great low-end torque and tremendous potential for making a light, good-handling chassis go very fast. DMH built at least one prototype, using a privately purchased Cadillac V8, which fitted nicely into the Silverstone chassis. (I have been fortunate enough to see this car. And again, that's not "one of these cars," it's "this one.")
So DMH took a steamship from England to the U.S., intending to strike a deal with Cadillac for several V8 engines.
On the way he met George Romney, president of the Nash Motor Corporation based in Kenosha, Wisconsin. George and DMH hit it off from the start, and Romney said that if things didn't go according to plan, he should look him up.
Well, Cadillac didn't give DMH the time of day—too busy (and too important) to sell motors to some tinkerer. DMH decided that rather than make the trip a total loss, he should look into the Nash connection.
Well, Romney was as good as his word, and a deal was struck not only for engines, but for some development of a sports-racing car. The Nash-Healey ended up taking 3rd overall (behind two Mercedes 300SLs) at the 1952 24 Hours of Le Mans—an amazing achievement for a six-cylinder pushrod block, in spite of Nash's disappointment at not winning against the highly developed twin-cam racing engines.
The final piece in the puzzle was the acquisition of bodywork from Pininfarina, Italy's premiere coachbuilder at the time (and my own Pininfarina car is at my elbow, urging me to delete "at the time").
500 Nash-Healeys were built, in coupe form as shown here but more popularly in a roadster. The five cars shown at Forest Grove therefore represent one percent of all Nash-Healey production; no one at the concours knew how many still remain.
Classic film buffs may recall the original Sabrina, with Humphrey Bogart, Audrey Hepburn, and William Holden. Bogart is the sober-sided chairman of the board of a wealthy family's financial institution, and younger brother Holden is the fast-living cad who romances Hepburn. The car in which Holden drives her home from the train station is a Nash-Healey roadster.
Oh, and about that title: In 1959, DMH tried again to secure V8 power for his sports cars, and once more crossed the Atlantic, this time to meet with his longtime friend and fellow racer Carroll Shelby (who had just won the 24 Hours, driving an Aston Martin). DMH got the same response from Chevrolet as he had earlier received from Cadillac, and furthermore was chastised by British Motor Corporation (BMC) management for attempting to go outside the firm's own engine sources. So sadly, Shelby had to look elsewhere for the Anglo-American hybrid he was working on... a little car known as the Cobra, and a story that might have started as early as 1952 if General Motors had not already perfected the art of sticking their heads up their uncommonly tight fundamental apertures.
