The 45EPIC landscapes and goddesses are straight out of Homer's Iliad & Odyssey!
I'm currently updating a translation with the Greek names for the gods and goddesses--will publish soon! :)
"RAGE--Sing, O goddess, the anger of Achilles son of Peleus, that brought countless ills upon the Achaeans. Many a brave soul did it send hurrying down to Hades, and many a hero did it yield a prey to dogs and vultures, for so were the counsels of Zeus fulfilled from the day on which the son of Atreus, king of men, and great Achilles, first fell out with one another. " --Homer's Iliad capturing the rage of the 45EPIC landscapes and seascapes! :)
Ludwig van Beethoven: "Music/poetry/art should strike fire from the heart of man, and bring tears from the eyes of woman."
I was back at the Royal Albert Hall last night for the first of this season's Classical Spectaculars, 6 performances lasting until Sunday 20/11/16. These are official pictures, not mine, as taking pictures whilst on stage would be something of a no no. These concerts occur 12 times a year at the Royal Albert Hall, six in March and six in November.
Thats a part of my Pentax-Motor-camera-collection.
I have a special passion for the Pentaxes from the 70s and the 80s and here are some of my favorites: The K2DMD and the KX from the mid of the 70s, the MX from the end of the 70s and the LX from the beginning of the 80s.

Getting an EJ&E SD38 on home rails outside of the Northwest Indiana area has become tough in the last few years, but occasionally one breaks free from the Kirk Yard matrix and ends up on L521. This is one such instance, as we see EJ&E 661 leading the Joliet-bound mixed freight west past the Frankfort pump house in the final minutes of light on a brisk January evening. CN has been gracious enough to allow a majority of the classic EJ&E power to avoid the paint booth since acquiring the railroad in 2009, with only a handful wearing CN paint. It will be 16 years since CN takeover at the end of January this year, and a majority of the roster still wears orange.
This was a great wife's borthday that we spent just two, admiring classical concerts and good Italian food. Amazing weekend before a very difficult week. Great to remember!

All art is but imitation of nature.-- Seneca (Letters from a Stoic - Letter LXV: On the First Cause)
The universe itself is God and the universal outpouring of its soul. --Chrysippus (Quoted by Cicero in De Natura Deorum)
Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells. --To Autumn. by John Keats

Here's a build I've been waiting to photograph for ages! It's a 'classical' steampunk city diorama, with an open back and full interior. I also lit it up using Lightailing lights, which you can see here.
This is the main bridge area, and I (somehow) managed to add lights to the bit above the bridge.
Morpeth.
The early history of Morpeth is like that of Paterson but Morpeth and the advantage of being on the banks of the Hunter River and it too was an early river port. The first land grant here was to Lieutenant Edward Close who received a grant of 2,600 acres in 1821 from Governor Macquarie for his services as an engineer in Newcastle penal settlement. The town of Morpeth celebrated its bicentenary in 202. Edward Close named his homestead Closebourne which was built around 1826. From 1848 to 1912 it became the home of the Anglican Bishops of Newcastle and it was renamed Bishopscourt by the first Bishop of Newcastle William Tyrrell. Edward Close built himself another residence next to it which he named Morpeth House built in 1849 and this is now an important historic precinct. Lieutenant Close created the private town of Morpeth in 1834 as the arrival of paddle steamers from 1831 boosted commercial development. A wharf and two inns were licensed in 1832. Morpeth was named after a town of that name near Newcastle in England. It grew as a major river port from 1832 to 1890. Edward Close was “the patron” of his town. He set up a school in 1836 when a Catholic Church was built followed by an Anglican Church which was built in 1837. The first Post Office opened in 1838 and some industry followed in 1840 with a steam flourmill and a soap works in 1844. William Arnott opened a bakery here in the 1840s. There were ten hotels in the town by 1866 and a government National School opened in 1862. Morpeth was thriving. Because of historical importance and charm the whole town has been classified by the NSW National Trust.
Closebourne. 378 Morpeth road. Clearly visible from the main road. A fine two storey Georgian residence still owned by the Anglican Church and part of its current conference centre. When the Bishop of Newcastle moved to that city Closebourne had various uses as a boys’ home, a boys’ grammar school from 1949 and now a conference centre. Morpeth house is west of Closebourne House and is not visible from the roads. It is depicted lower left. Beside Closebourne in Tank Street is the old 1845 St James Anglican Church which is now the parish hall. It was also used as an Anglican school. The rectory on the other side of the church dates from 1843. The current church had its foundation stone laid in 1837. It was consecrated in 1840. But only the square tower remains of that original building. Church architect Edmund Blacket built the chancel and sanctuary behind the altar in 1862. After a fire in 1869 architect John Horbury Hunt, who designed the Newcastle Cathedral, was commissioned to design a new nave following the design of the original one. Morpeth House was added to the Closebourne site in 1925 as an Anglican theological college.
At 110 High Street is the Greek classical temple style School of Arts built 1863. It was also used as the Morpeth Council Chambers from 1865 to 1944. Next door at 108 High St is Murphy’s House - a successful town publican with two hotels. This is a fine regency style house probably from the 1840s or 1850s. At 85 High St is the former Primitive Methodist Church built in 1856. It is in a dilapidated condition. It was the Castor Theatre from 1921 to 1964.
Nearby is Glenoak House another fine regency style two storey red brick house with sandstone veranda columns at no 103 High St. At 36 High St is the former Methodist manse. At 46 High St is the National School which dates from 1862 but with many later additions. At 31 High St is the old Police Station. This gracious building was erected in 1879 with stables at the rear. Turn left into George St and as we do so you can see the Catholic Church. This grand structure with different coloured brickwork was built in 1897. Turn left again at Swan Street the main commercial street along the Hunter River.
At 90 Swan Street is the former Railway Station. It was built in 1889 and closed for rail services in 1953. It is used for government officers. At 97 Swan St is the River Royal Hotel. It opened in 1876 but it now has an early 1900s Edwardian facade. At 105 Swan St. is the Post and Telegraph Office. Government architect James Burnet designed it and it opened in 1881. It is in the Italianate style with arches and curves and a colonnade etc.
At 125 Swan St is the Courthouse which is now the town museum. It operated as the Courthouse from 1862 to 1950. The classical central part with the gable, triangular pediment and clock is impressive. Across the street at 128 is the old stone bond store built around 1850 as three separate buildings for storing goods delivered to the river port before people paid their duties or invoices. Built for James Taylor. It now looks like a terrace row with shops and residences in it. Situated next to the wharf it acted as a warehouse for liquor and later medicines. Unlike most bond stores this was not run by the government. Note the fine stone work and slate roof. Behind it is the heritage listed bridge across the Hunter River built in 1898 with three span truss bridge. Across the road at 127 Swan St is the Commercial Hotel. It was first licensed in 1865 but it is hard to see any early structure here. Beyond the shopping precinct at 149 Swan St is the fine Commercial Banking Company of Sydney building. It opened in 1889 and is a good example of an Italianate building. It has perfect symmetry, Classical arched windows, impressive classical entrance etc. opposite the CBC at 146 Swan is the two storey former Arnott’s bakery. Arnott’s began a bakery in the early 1840s but they moved to the former shop and premises of Richard Chapman in 1868. His shop and residence was built in 1851. Arnott’s grew into a national biscuit manufacturer in the 20th century.
