Penguin Classics L40, 1954

First published in 1859, Oblomov is an indisputable classic of Russian literature, comparable in its stature to such masterpieces as Gogol's Dead Souls, Tolstoy's Anna Karenina and Dostoevsky's Brothers Karamazov. The book centres on the figure of Ilya Ilyich Oblomov, a member of the dying class of the landed gentry, who spends most of his time lying in bed gazing at life in an apathetic daze, encouraged by his equally lazy servant Zakhar and routinely swindled by his acquaintances. But this torpid existence comes to an end when, spurred on by his crumbling finances, the love of a woman and the reproaches of his friend, the hard-working Stoltz, Oblomov finds that he must engage with the real world and face up to his commitments.
Rich in situational comedy, psychological complexity and social satire, Oblomov is a timeless novel and a monument to human idleness.

One of the ultimate cafe racers of their day. The BSA Gold Star 500 cc single.
The BSA Gold Star, (1938–1963), is a 350 cc and 500 cc 4-stroke production motorcycle that gained its reputation for being one of the fastest machines of the 1950s. These motorcycles were popular for their high performance. Besides being hand built, with many optional performance modifications available, they came from the factory with documented dynamometer test results, allowing the new owner to see the horsepower produced.
1956 DBD34
The most prized model was the 500 cc DBD34 introduced in 1956, with clip-on handlebars, finned alloy engine, polished tank, 36 mm bell-mouth Amal carburettor and swept-back exhaust. The DBD34 had a 110 mph (177 km/h) top speed. The Gold Star dominated the Isle of Man Clubmans TT that year. Later models had a very high first Gear, enabling 60 mph (97 km/h) plus before changing up to second. Production ended in 1963.[5]
A quick look at all three classic Daleks together. I'm happy with my shots of figure outdoors, but not my indoor shots. The lighting is basic and my set-up skills are lacking. Also my mini-gorillapod seems to be on it's way out too, making this a very hit and miss session. I'll have a go a re-shooting this picture in the future, with hopefully more success!

Two classics ply the icy Detroit River a very cold morning in January of 2001. In this view from Windsor, Ontario the steamer 1953 built Saginaw downbound with a load of grain and the upbound US Coast Guard icebreaker Mackinaw. The Saginaw would give up her steam boilers and turbine in 2008 for a new diesel engine. The Mackinaw of 1944 at 290'x74' would be replaced in 2005 by a new icebreaker of the same name, but smaller at 240'x58'.
