The flash bulb for use in photography , with a clew of wire made of an Aluminum/Magnesium alloy was developed by Philips (the Netherlands) in the 1930s . In the picture a bulb is mounted in a Kodak Brownie Flasholder , from the 1940s .
Green flashes and green rays are optical phenomena that sometimes occur right after sunset or right before sunrise. When the conditions are right, a green spot is visible above the upper rim of the disk of the sun. The green appearance usually lasts for no more than a second or two. Rarely, the green flash can resemble a green ray shooting up from the sunset (or sunrise) point. Green flashes occur because the atmosphere can cause the light from the sun to separate out into different colors. Green flashes are a group of phenomena which stem from slightly different causes, and therefore some types of green flashes are more common than others.[1]
While observing at the Vatican Observatory in 1960 D.K.J. O'Connell produced the first color photographs of a green flash at sunset
As I always say, I'm a collector and AFOL first, a customizer second. And today was a fun day to be a collector. I finally got one of these bad boys, Christo's Reverse Flash (Professor Zoom, not sure which is appropriate here). Gotta say, I'm impressed by the way he did the boots and the helmet looks pretty cool. I was a little surprised though how loose it was on his head. While it isn't one of my favorite figs from Christo, The simplicity of the design, the way the boots stand out on the legs are great, along with the custom helmet, make it worth while. Just took a long time to get..
So overall review:
Good:
- Boot printing with the wings on the side!
- Simplistic but effective design, with the slight darker yellow muscle outlines
- Custom helmet
- Face fits the helmet perfectly, hard to do with custom pieces!
Bad
- Very expensive...that's why it took so long to get
- Helmet is a bit loose. It still stays on when you carry it, but comes off VERY easily. (though, I've been told by many in the comments below that it is not the norm for this piece)
Other than that, it's a great fig to get of a character that is not present in the LEGO world.
Thanks to Mike (ryffranck029), appreciate it! Plus, that was a fast shipment from Canada!
Testing the flash guns before the village pantomime (defiantly green spots before the eyes -- I wonder why they are green?)
The Hemyock village pantomime is an amateur production, with the main theme being fun. This year it "Sleeping Beauty" and even the first night (Wednesday 21st October) is a "sell out".

Ok, here is: My DIY ring flash.
Salad Bowl, cut a hole in the middle, placed a pineapple tin can, made another square hole for the flash on the side. Made a bracket out of alumium and shaped it in the way shown above. Flash is a Canon 580ex, triggered by a cable.
The diffuser is a piece of plastic folder I had with documents :-)
The tin of pineapple has a piece of aluminium foil around it so it reflects more light. I love the lighting effect this flash produces. I will upload photos soon (When I find my model)

The 4th 'Flash' livery for Plymouth is the Green Flash, which operates on route 5/5A between St Budeaux-Elburton/ Staddiscombe.
It has to be said I prefer the application of the livery on the single deck Enviro 200s compared to these E400s, rather too much of the turquoise bands on these for my liking. Having said that it's a nice green and makes the fleet look more interesting.

"Green flash" is a real optical phenomenon caused by diffraction and scattering of electromagnetic waves of the visible light spectrum (rainbow) during the sunsets and sunrises.
The green color, corresponding to waves of medium wavelength, flashing at that moment. The other red, blue, violet with wavelengths longer and shorter wave colors present become nullified and we only the characteristic green color is present.

Four different BNSF paint schemes, including the one and only experimental "Great Pumpkin," feature on priority merchandise train H SUPNTW1 13A as it soars over a frozen Kettle River at Robinson Park in Sandstone on the former Great Northern. Built by the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba (StPM&M) Railway in 1894, this bridge features a combo deck truss and deck girder style design that stretches 764 feet in length, making it one of the largest railroad bridges in the state of Minnesota. For unknown reasons, this 79-car Superior to Northtown freight sat at its originating terminal for over 36 hours before it was finally let loose earlier in the afternoon for its trip south to the Twin Cities. Originally set to have just the EMD SD60Ms lead, the near 2 day layover at Superior eventually saw more power hostled on to the train and we lucked out with this ex-Santa Fe "Warbonnet" Dash 9 being given the honors. Operated today as BNSF's Hinckley Subdivision, this line's single track remains the only active rail route between Duluth-Superior and Minneapolis-St. Paul and often sees trackage rights moves from other class 1 giants like Union Pacific, Canadian National and Canadian Pacific.
This was a shot that's been on my "want" list for awhile now and after cleaning things up on the Iron Range, JB and I timely pointed the car down I-35 with this train's departure and after a short wait, the proverbial "check mark" next to Sandstone was complete.

After processing, the delicate gold inflorescence with flash is breathtaking, preserving details. Just for comparison, I have included the same White-Chested Emerald without flash, again almost a different bird in appearance. Without the flash the namesake emerald colors predominate. I hope this drives home the point that you need to take photographs both with and without flash to fully represent any particular bird species.
So I ended up making a new Rogueverse Flash today, since the design I had used previously I'm using for my EWSG Flash series. Anyways, here's his backstory!
Backstory: The Roman based deity Mercury, became bored living amongst his family. So he would decide that he would come to Earth, and start a life for himself there. As he needed a name for himself so he could blend in with society, he began calling himself Max Mercury. At first, he would use his extraordinary speed to play tricks on people. But he would later find love in Laura Claiborne. Because he abandoned his duties for Olympus, his immortality was taken from him by Zeus himself. Laura would later give birth to a girl, which they named Helen. Mercury realized that his powers of speed were meant to be used for greater things. He became the world's first scarlet speedster, as the Flash! His costume consisted of a metal hat, with lightning bolts on the side, and winged tips on his boots, much like how he looks in mythology, along with a red jacket, that has a yellow lightning bolt down the middle. As he grew old with Laura, Mercury decided he would give his powers of speed to one that was a worthy champion of justice. He would find this in Barry Allen, a CSI that works for the Central City Police Department, whose father murdered his mother at an early age. Mercury would tell Barry about his new found powers, and would teach him how to use it. On his deathbed, Mercury told Barry to never let the legacy of the Flash die out. Barry Allen, as the Flash, would end up facing many dangers in the years to come. Many villains, gifted by the powers of the gods of Olympus, would come after Barry, and the ones he cares for. He would generate a new costume, that was way different than Mercury's original costume.
