A brand new project I've started working on this summer is my 'Audio Guide' series.
As I was walking around Stonehenge I noticed something that had been bothering me on my last few visits to big old attractions. It was quiet. Abnormally quiet. Especially when you consider the volume of people visiting there.
When I was little there were noisy groups following one guide, waving their arms around expressively in just about any given language. You could stand and listen for a while (feeling like a naughty hanger on) or you could browse the informational placques dotted in relevant places. Now, there are Audio Guides.
They are probably interesting, I must admit I've never taken one, but as a photographer I like to soak up the scene with sights, smells, sounds and all. Now I began to notice couples distanced from each other. Groups in uncanny silence. Spectators with blank, distant looks.
And I began hipshooting with the iPhone, trying to capture the same expression I was witnessing over and over again.
I guess this is a small study for what could become a much larger project for me and my 5d. Heck I could even use the Pentax 6x7 because no one would notice the sound of the shutter. They are too busy listening to the Audio Guide.
Around 70 girl guides from across Naitasiri rallied together at Nagali District School on 5 August for Fiji Girl Guides' fifth and final march to end violence against women and girls. Since November 2015, Fiji Girl Guides Association has championed the Voices Against Violence curriculum in schools across Fiji thanks to UN Women’s technical support and its Pacific Fund - a small-grants and capacity building project principally funded by the Australian Government.

Help! :-)
These graphs are from three separate nights of guiding. After the first night I thought that balance was the issue but I’m sure I’m well balanced now and the declination is still all over the place.
Apart from increasing PHD's capture timing the settings are all default. Anything I can try there? I’m guiding a 150p (750mm focal length) with Orion 50mm finder.
They were all still nights, no wind, although surely that would have also had an affect of the RA?
Last night’s guiding started off really well for 20 mins or so before it suddenly went mad. Any ideas that I can try to work out what’s causing this?
The Girl Guides Association in Gibraltar was today granted the Freedom of the City of Gibraltar by Mayor Olga Zammit. The ceremony, attended by local dignitaries including His Excellency the Governor and Chief Minister Peter Caruana was held at Casemates Square. The guides then exercised their right to march down Main Street with drums beating courtesy of the Sea Scouts Band.

*One of my favorite things is capturing similar species in the same frame. This one shows the clear difference in size and head shape of the Greater (left) and Lesser (right) Scaup. Taken today at Fresh Pond in Cambridge, MA.

Keighley Girl Guide Association activity weekend. Photograph taken by a Keighley News photographer on 20th March 1983.
In 2021 Keighley and District Local History Society acquired an extensive collection of photograph negatives taken by the Keighley News. Groups of negatives were held in small wallets with the date and basic labelling written on the wallet. This image is developed from one of those negatives. The image was processed on behalf of the History Society by Billy Stride in 2023.
She showed me the Jirozon statue, the Hypocenter, and a cemetery with tombstones from before and after the bombing. She also showed me everything in her binder, including some intense pictures - this was when my stomach started to knot up.
She was also the first Japanese person I have met who said "Oh, thank you!" when I told her she had good English, as opposed to demurring. She gave me a little ziploc (the tiny kind you use for crafts) with a paper crane and a slip of paper with her email address to "further [her] study" of English. She was so sweet.
The busway track - the longest in the world - is made up of two concrete beams with kerbs and guide wheels on the bus connect with the kerb and run along it to steer the bus. Stagecoach and Whippet are the two bus companies running services for the busway.
Taken at the Cambridge Science Park Busway stops, 29th December 2015.

ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD/NORTHSIDE
Next to the Statue of John Wesley. A round stone of Irish limestone. 3 tons of it. Lettering by Richard Kindersley in the form of a spiral on top, plus gilded lettering around the side. Also 2000. Further back on the ground near the railings is another stone with lettering in the form of a spiral with an explanation. A memorial to the people of London who lost their lives in the Blitz. The wording is by Sir Edward Marsh who wrote the foreword to Sir Winston Churchill's book on WW2.

About The Series: The focal press guides, usually but not always written by the indefatigable W. D. Emanuel are a treasure trove for collectors of cameras. Not for the sections on how to use individual cameras (which do, however contain a great deal of good sense) but for the descriptions of different models. They are the first source to go to if you want to know the difference between (for example) an Ensign Selfix 16/20 Model I and an Ensign Selfix Model II or how many elements the Trinar lens in your Regula camera has
