Two beautiful peacock blue pearls are captured within each handmade copper link. Each link hangs from a sterling silver ear wire. The metals have been oxidized and buffed to expose a soft shine.
German A7V or "Abteilung 7 Verkehrswesen" (Battalion 7 Transportation) "Sturmpanzerwagen" (Assault Armoured Car) named "Mephisto" captured by the Australian Imperial Force (AIF). (Villers-Bretonneux, France, April 1918).
Severely damaged by a British Mark IV tank and abandoned during the 2nd Battle of Villers-Bretonneux, the Sturmpanzerwagen "Mephisto" was captured by the AIF and returned to Australia as a war prize. The only surviving German A7V of World War 1, "Mephisto" still exists today on display at the Queensland Museum, Brisbane.

The Capture of Carthage
1725-29
Giovanni Battista Tiepolo (Italian, Venetian, 1696-1770)
Oil on canvas; Irregular painted surface, 162 x 148 3/8 in. (411.5 x 376.9 cm)
Inscribed (left, on standard): SPQR
The subject of this picture has been variously identified. It seems to show the capture of Carthage by Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus (later known as Scipio Africanus the Younger) in 146 B.C., a momentous event that definitively ended the power of Carthage. The carnage was unspeakable, and the city burned for seventeen days.
The picturea masterpiece of Tiepolo's early maturityis from a series of ten canvases painted about 172529 to decorate the main room of the Ca' Dolfin, Venice. The event probably carried an allusion to the recent campaigns of the Venetians against the Turks in the Mediterranean and the military participation of Daniele Dolfin.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art's permanent collection contains more than two million works of art from around the world. It opened its doors on February 20, 1872, housed in a building located at 681 Fifth Avenue in New York City. Under their guidance of John Taylor Johnston and George Palmer Putnam, the Met's holdings, initially consisting of a Roman stone sarcophagus and 174 mostly European paintings, quickly outgrew the available space. In 1873, occasioned by the Met's purchase of the Cesnola Collection of Cypriot antiquities, the museum decamped from Fifth Avenue and took up residence at the Douglas Mansion on West 14th Street. However, these new accommodations were temporary; after negotiations with the city of New York, the Met acquired land on the east side of Central Park, where it built its permanent home, a red-brick Gothic Revival stone "mausoleum" designed by American architects Calvert Vaux and Jacob Wrey Mold. As of 2006, the Met measures almost a quarter mile long and occupies more than two million square feet, more than 20 times the size of the original 1880 building.
In 2007, the Metropolitan Museum of Art was ranked #17 on the AIA 150 America's Favorite Architecture list.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art was designated a landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1967. The interior was designated in 1977.

Fallout 4 - "A Christmas Greeting" - Pip-Boy/Photo/Postcard
by The Game Tips And More Blog
(Ultra Settings in-game capture with added Border, Vignette, Text and Effects)
The Pip-Boy overlay used for this image was captured in-game with the ULTRA graphic Video Setting, with the screen area 'cut out'. I then captured a Christmas scene in-game on Dec.25th (in-game time) with Codsworth next to the tree in Diamond City. I then emulated some Pip-Boy-style text with a free font (Bitstream Vera Sans, the Public Domain version) and added a 'screen output' effect by simply erasing every other row in The GIMP [now called just GIMP?]. Adding some Christmas-style overlays (free light style wallpapers) and a 'fisheye' effect to make it look more like it is on a curved screen finished the effect. As always, it was seemingly simple to think of, but took longer than expected to complete the composition (a day late for Xmas, heh). Merry Christmas anyway!
[I’m having a ton of fun with Fallout 4, which was a gift from My Better Half - even though I am mainly just building up my Settlements (as opposed to actually getting the Main Storyline Quest(s) done)... ]

Jill Ireland - LEILA KALOMI
(Season 1, Episode 25: "This Side of Paradise")
Jill Ireland's disntinct, natural beauty was well-made for this episode in which she's a cross between a farm girl and an extra in "The Sound of Music." She conquers Spock's heart anew.
THE KIRK CONNECTION: For the first time in his life, Spock was happy and Kirk had to take her away from the Science Officer.

Finnish tanker is photographed standing next to a captured Soviet T-28 tank. This machine is one of the two captured by Finnish troops in December 1939, from the 20th Heavy Tank Brigade Kirov.
As an amateur photographer who enjoys street photography it’s only right that I should put myself out there to. The picture was taken by the light of my life!
