This church is Reykjavík’s oldest. It holds great historical importance as both the center of Iceland’s Lutheran faith and the birthplace of independence.
This is an unassuming city church completed in 1796. It stands beside Parliament House in the city’s main square. It was at the National Cathedral that the Lutheran church officially endorsed Icelandic sovereignty and independence in 1845, although the modern Republic of Iceland was not founded until 1944.
The National Cathedral looks out upon Austurvöllur, Reykjavík’s oldest square.

Heavy rains didn't seem to dampen the spirits of this cell phone photographer as he crouched down to capture a photo of his family posed in front of a popular Vancouver landmark.
Gastown is the historic core of Vancouver, and is the city's earliest, most historic area of commercial buildings and warehouses.

If it's summer, and I'm awake, I want an Iced coffee from Dunkin Donuts... I used to make fun of people who talked all that " I need my coffee in the morning Waaa waaa" Shit... Well you know what? I don't NEED it, but I want it every day... so i guess that would mean I need it... So much so i felt i would pay homage to the drink that is there with me during all painting excursions... I swear they add some extra shit to it... To steal a quote from an alcoholic acquaintance of mine: "It's only a problem if you don't like it"
In railway signalling, a “token” is a physical object which a train driver is required to have or see before entering onto a particular section of single track. The token is clearly endorsed with the names of the section it belongs to. A token system is more commonly used for single lines because of the greater risk of collision in the event of a mistake being made by a signaller or traincrew, than on double lines.
These were used on the Ruabon – Barmouth sections of line until its closure in 1965.
It really amazes me the generosity of some people. In addition, this whole concept that people on flickr and elsewhere are just ‘internet people’ and not real people.
Sunday I was asked to come down to Orange County to photograph yoga instructor, mentor and blogger Geri once again. Last time the concept was beauty, so we shot her at the Long Beach marina in daylight. This time, she wanted a more rugged, urban look. Beautiful yoga in an urban setting.
I asked Steve Moore and Hector Cruz if they wanted to come along, shoot along, etc. There wasn’t much money involved, but I thought it might be fun.
Not only did they both want to come along (and drive miles to get there) but they allowed me to use their Alien Bees, Cyber Syncs, ring flash, octabox and their entire studio. Plus, they helped with all the lighting, etc. I’m just blown away.
Now the funny thing is that their new studio Moore & Cruz just opened and they are doing some amazing work. Both come from different backgrounds, so when they combine for a portrait shoot, wedding, or just something fun, you better believe they have the equipment, skills and personality to make it happen. Does it sound like I’m giving an endorsement? You betcha. If you’re in the OC or LA area, be sure to look them up.
Thanks again guys!
This was shot at ISO 2500. Almost SOOC. There was an AlienBee 1600 on the left and right, both just using their modeling lamp, in some dark alley in Santa Ana.
A couple of miles before arriving at our hotel in Torridon we had to stop the car to enjoy this beautiful view on Loch Maree. When Queen Victoria visited Loch Maree in 1877, she was deeply impressed by its beauty and described it as "lovely" and "romantic." This endorsement by Queen Victoria helped to increase the loch's fame as a tourist destination during the Victorian era – Loch Maree, Torridon Region, Scotland, UK

Expedition 47 crew members on board the International Space Station captured this brightly lit night image of the largest city along Lake Michigan in the US Midwest state of Illinois: Chicago.
One of the long-standing experiments on the International Space Station is called Crew Earth Observations. The unique vantage point of Earth from space has allowed astronauts to capture some of the most compelling photographs ever seen. They are not only beautiful photographs, but also offer insight into how the planet is changing over time, from human-caused changes like urban growth and reservoir construction, to natural dynamic events such as hurricanes, floods and volcanic eruptions. Crew members have been photographing Earth from space since the early Mercury missions beginning in 1961. The continuous images taken from the space station ensure this record remains unbroken.
In celebration of Earth month, Marshall has posted images on Instagram of our planet beginning with Expedition 1 from 2000 all the way through the current Expedition 47.

I adore my little space and my yard around it. It is up a hill above a decaying graveyard, path to it long worn and gone with time. I am so lucky to have my own little space in world. Like I, it may not be forever, but for now I am endorsing myself in the beautiful hues of sunset from there.

New era of outfit pictures start here, as the new system updates to PBR and the environment lighting changes drastically.
I have a soft spot for these sort of photos using repetition of a subject that goes on into the distance. For any Millennials seeing this photo, this is a card catalog (just Google it) – the old-school way to look up things at a library. This card catalog is from the Los Angeles Central Library, just outside of the children's reading room. Because the collection is now online, the library has converted the card catalog into a donation wall, by inscribing the brass plates with the names of the library's donors.

Norio isn't quite sure what this is but he endorses it nonetheless. (Naomi and I enjoyed it and wouldn't give any to Norio for fear of intestinal upset on his part. As he's gotten older, he has become a lot more sensitive to richer human food so we try not to give him anything that we eat.)

KK Women's and Children's Hospital (KKH), Singapore
From its humble beginnings as a small general hospital in 1858 to a 30-bed maternity hospital in 1924, KKH has grown into an 830-bed hospital providing obstetric and gynaecology, neonatology and paediatric services. Often affectionally referred to as "KK" amongst locals, it is the birthplace of a sizeable proportion of Singaporeans, delivering over half of total newborns in the country as early as 1938.
In 1966, the hospital entered the Guinness Book of Records for delivering the highest number of newborns within a single maternity facility for that year, and it continued to hold on to this record for a full decade, delivering 85% of the population. source: wikipedia

Spanish postcard in the Hollywood (California) series. Photo: Universal International.
American actress and singer Barbara Bates (1925-1969) was best known for her role as Phoebe, the slyly manipulative fan of stage actress Anne Baxter in the closing scene of All About Eve (1950). She also played Clifron Webb and Myrna Loy's daighter Ernestine in the popular Fox-family comedy Cheaper by the Dozen (1950), and its sequel, Belles on Their Toes (1952). Bates committed suicide at the age of 43.
Barbara Jane Bates was born in Denver, Colorado, in 1925. She was the eldest of three daughters of Eva I. and Arthur W. Bates, a postal clerk. While growing up in Denver, she studied ballet and worked as a teen fashion model. The shy teen was persuaded to enter a local beauty contest and won, receiving two round-trip train tickets to Hollywood, California. Two days before returning to Denver, Bates met Cecil Coan, a United Artists publicist. This altered the course of her life forever. In September 1944, 19 year old Bates signed a contract with Universal Pictures after Coan introduced her to producer Walter Wanger. Soon after, she was cast as one of the 'Seven Salome Girls' in the drama, Salome Where She Danced (Charles Lamont, 1945) starring Yvonne De Carlo. When in 1944, a Yank outfit in Luxembourg reportedly declared that soldiers were fed up on pinup pictures of starlets, she and colleague Kathleen O’Malley demanded proof. Costumed for their parts in Salome, Where She Danced, they put the question by holding up a sign that read: “Are G.I.s Tired of Us?” Around this time, she fell in love with the much older Coan, who was married with two sons and two daughters. In March 1945, Coan divorced his wife Helen Coan and secretly married Bates days later. She was 19, he 45. Bates spent the next few years as a stock actress, landing bit parts in films and doing cheesecake layouts for magazines like Yank, the Army Weekly and Life. It was one of those photo sessions that caught the eye of talent executive Solly Baiano at Warner Bros. who signed her in 1947. Warner Bros. highlighted her 'girl-next-door' image and her acting career took off. She appeared with some of the biggest stars of the day including Bette Davis in the comedy June Bride (Bretaigne Windust, 1948) and Danny Kaye in The Inspector General (Henry Koster, 1949)). In 1949, Bates's contract with Warner Bros. was terminated when she refused to go to New York City to promote The Inspector General. Despite being fired by Warner Brothers, she quickly signed a contract with 20th Century-Fox later that year.
In late 1949, Barbara Bates auditioned for the small role of Phoebe in Fox's upcoming All About Eve (Joseph L. Mankiewicz, 1950). In competition for the part was Zsa Zsa Gabor and others, but Bates impressed the producers and was given the part. She made a short but important appearance as the devious schemer, Phoebe, at the end of the film. Bates's image is enshrined in the film's last scene, posing in front of a three-way mirror, while holding the award won by her idol Eve Harrington, played by Anne Baxter. This memorable final scene left critics and audiences intrigued by the young actress, who they thought would star in a sequel to All About Eve. The Hollywood Reporter said of her performance, "Barbara Bates comes on the screen in the last few moments to more or less sum up the whole action and point of the story. It's odd that a bit should count for so much, and in the hands of Miss Bates all the required points are fulfilled." After her appearance in All About Eve, Bates co-starred in Cheaper by the Dozen (Walter Lang, 1950) with Clifton Webb, and its sequel Belles on Their Toes (Henry Levin, 1950), with Jeanne Crain and Myrna Loy. In 1951, she tests for the ballet dancer role in Charles Chaplin’s Limelight. Chaplin conducts the test himself, is very pleased with her performance, and offers her the part. But because of Chaplin's political beliefs, Fox vetoes the offer, and the part goes to Claire Bloom. Bates landed a role opposite MacDonald Carey and Claudette Colbert in the comedy Let's Make It Legal (Richard Sale, 1951). She co-starred with Donna Reed as the love interests of Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis in the hit comedy The Caddy (Norman Taurog, 1953).
Despite a seemingly successful career, Barbara Bates's life, both on and off screen, started unravelling. She became a victim of extreme mood swings, insecurity, ill health, and chronic depression. In 1954, she won the role of Cathy on the NBC sitcom It's a Great Life, co-starring Frances Bavier as her mother, Amy Morgan, and James Dunn as her uncle, Earl Morgan. After 26 episodes, she was written out of the show due to her erratic behavior, depression and instability. Bates and her Svengali-like husband Coen, who made all of Barbara's decisions for her, tried to salvage her career. They travelled to England to find work, where Coen became publicity director at United Artist's London office. Barbara was signed on as a contract player with the Rank Organisation, only to be replaced in two leading roles before filming began. Bates continued to be too emotionally unstable to work and in 1957, her contract with the Rank Organisation was cancelled. Upon returning to the United States in 1957, Bates and her husband got an apartment in Beverly Hills. Later that year, Bates made her last film, Apache Territory (Ray Nazzaro, 1958) starring Rory Calhoun. She then appeared in two television commercials, one for floor wax and another endorsing a now unknown product with Buster Keaton. In 1960, Bates's husband Cecil Coan was diagnosed with cancer. Bates put her career on hold to care for her ailing husband. The strain eventually became too much for her. She attempted suicide by slashing her wrists and was rushed to Cedars-Sinai Hospital where she soon recovered. She made her final onscreen appearance in an episode of The Saint (1962). In 1967, Bates's husband Cecil Coan died of cancer. Devastated by his death, Bates's depression worsened and she again became suicidal. Later that year, she returned to Denver and fell out of public view. For a time, Bates worked as a secretary, as a dental assistant, and as a hospital aide. In 1968 she married for the second time: to a childhood friend, sportscaster William Reed. Despite her new marriage and location, Bates remained increasingly despondent and depressed. On 18 March 1969, just months after her marriage to Reed, Barbara Bates committed suicide by carbon monoxide poisoning on the front seat of her Volkswagen in the sealed garage of her mother's suburban Denver home. Reportedly she was pregnant. Bates was 43 years old. She is buried at Crown Hill Cemetery in Jefferson County, Colorado.

The SpaceX Dragon commercial cargo craft approaches the International Space Station on May 25, 2012 for grapple and berthing. Expedition 31 Flight Engineers Don Pettit and Andre Kuipers grappled Dragon at 9:56 a.m. (EDT) with the Canadarm2 robotic arm and used the robotic arm to berth Dragon to the Earth-facing side of the station's Harmony node at 12:02 p.m. May 25, 2012. Dragon became the first commercially developed space vehicle to be launched to the station to join Russian, European and Japanese resupply craft that service the complex while restoring a U.S. capability to deliver cargo to the orbital laboratory. Dragon is scheduled to spend about a week docked with the station before returning to Earth on May 31 for retrieval.
