Bromine, symbol Br, atomic number 35 is a red, non-metallic liquid discovered in 1826 by Antoine Balard in a salt marsh. *Though perhaps a German student Carl Lowig found it first but didn't get around to claiming it. Bromine is not something you want to stick your nose in, as it is irritating, burning and hazardous, with a noxious vapor.
The name bromine comes from the Greek for "bromos" or stench. The stench might even be that attributed to a stinky goat.
From bromine, we get bromides, which are compounds containing bromine. An example is silver bromide is used in photographic processes.
Bromine/bromide has also influenced language. That is the use of bromide to mean dull, uninteresting, trite and tiresome. To quote wordsmith.org: " In earlier times, potassium bromide used to be taken as a sedative. So any statement that was intended to be soothing ("Don't worry, everything will be OK.") acquired the name bromide. Eventually any commonplace or tired remark and anyone uttering such remarks came to be known as a bromide."
From this boring "bromide" comes "bromidic," the adjective form.

My print was created by screen print with 3 screens for 3 color process. Due to some learning curve errors, in the end my screens were created by painting the negative space with screen filler.
I used the image of a goat after reading a reference to "stench of the goat" relating to the Greek word for stench. This goat is standing by a marsh and inhaling the nasty red vapor of bromine (but he doesn't mind, because he already smells).
After I had designed the image, I went on to read about the linguistic connection between bromine and bromide/bromidic. I thought that was really interesting. I always like when sedation leads to new words. Nowadays I don't think these terms are used much, but we should put them back into use. It can be the new cool slang if we get the right people saying it in public. It's basically the equivalent to "triflin'" (trifle-ing) anyway.

I love this project, everybody's prints, and can't wait to see where this goes. Thanks to azuregrackle and everybody else. Various internet sources were used in obtaining the above info about bromine.

Remove element by unscrewing the screw between the two points where the element goes in. The screw also has a sprung washer between its head and the element plate..careful not to loose it! The element lifts off the retaining brackets at the base. Bring forward carefully as the connection wires will be attached to the element. They should just slide off with a little coaxing...or maybe with the use of some pointed pliers.
There ware quite a few model shoots going on while I was taking my tourist photos along this Miami Beach park. This crew was moving fast and stepped into my turf so I decided to incorporate them all in my city sunset shots. The photographer and his assistant were scurrying around so quickly that they were blurry in all my photos but this young lady stood still as a statue.

Iodine: Iodine is a shiny blue-black solid element. The French scientist Bernard Courtois discovered it in 1811 in seaweed when he treated seaweed ash with sulfuric acid. Dried seaweeds, particularly those of the Liminaria family, contain as much as 0.45% iodine. Iodine is primarily used in medicine, photography and dyes. It naturally occurs in the environment chiefly as a dissolved substance in sea water, although it is also found in some minerals and soils. (Source: www.mii.org/Minerals/photoiodine.html)
I was inspired to use images of the sea and kelp in my print design because of the strong iodine content in this particular seaweed. I didn't know about iodine in seaweed until I lived in Japan where people eat many different kinds of seaweed every day. I've grown to love eating seaweed through nori, kombu, hijiki and wakame in Japanese food.
Printmaking process: This print was made using the traditional Japanese woodblock printing method. First a woodblock was carved with the design and then watercolour inks were applied to the block. Then Japanese paper (pre-dampened) was carefully placed over this and a baren (a small, round, flat disc covered in a bamboo leaf) was used to rub across the back of the paper. The paper is then taken off the block and placed flat to dry between dry sheets of newspaper.

It was in this chamber that six elements on the periodic table were first created by high-speed ion collisions.
The elements were Meitnerium (1982), Hassium (1984), Darmstadtium (1994), Roentgenium (1994), Bohrium (1996) and Copernicium (1996).
They were created at the GSI Helmholtz Centre for Heavy Ion Research GmbH in Darmstadt, Germany.
