Hal: "My father was a duke who usurped Richard II and then became king himself. At age 12 I suddenly found all these honors, titles and land dumped on me. My father started trying to beat me into a kingly shape but I never pleased him, he was never satisfied with my efforts. He and everyone around me wouldn't stop lecturing me about what to do when I became king. Father only loves me as an insurance on his legacy and a legitimizer for his reign. So when I turned 15 I made a decision; I couldn't please father with my princely behavior, fine, I would stop trying. I took a room in a tavern in Eastcheap and started living doing whatever I liked. When father found out he cut off my allowance and so I stole whatever I needed. I became a vagabond and I got good at it. I met a man named John Falstaff who taught me how to live by wit, lies, cunning and purse picking. I formed a series of habits that I no longer have the power to shake."
Shot on the Panasonic GH4 with Pentax PK mount 28mm lens and Viltrox focal reducer and 80B Color Conversion cooling filter on the lens.
Colour restored by setting the camera to shoot both in Black and White JPEG with the GH4's Black and White colour filter simulation set to red to make the reds appear white on the Black and White image, along with it also shooting a colour Raw version. Then I took the low res preview version of the colour photo and on photoshop projected it on to the high res Black and White JPEG.

Hal’s Garage – Fayetteville, Ohio
Another road side gas station with a sense of nostalgia. The day was long and filled with rain. I’d been driving west on Route 20 for most of the day when I found this scene. The dismal weather forced me to seek refuge at a local motel. The early morning skies were sunny and clear.
Full disclosure. If you happen to pass by Hal’s Garage, you’ll notice that the trunk lids displayed as awnings are white. I decided to get creative and add some color.
The image was captured using my Wisner 8x20 on Bergger 200 and tray processed in Xtol 1:1. The digital image was then hand-colored in Photoshop.

This pendant portrays the wife of Lucas de Clercq. Spouses were customarily depicted separately, the husband on the left and the wife on the right, both turned towards each other. The light almost always came from the left, illuminating the face of the woman evenly, and casting striking shadows on that of the man. Hals portrayed the woman – as was usual – in a more static pose than that of the man. ... Rijksmuseum
Frans Hals (ca. 1582-1666), the son of a weaver, was born in Antwerp some time between 1581 and 1585. In his biography of Hals, Arnold Houbraken recounts how the family fled from the Spaniards in 1585 and settled in Haarlem. There the young painter was apprenticed to Karel van Mander. Hals joined Haarlem’s artist guild in 1610. This enabled him to set up his own studio, and take on pupils and assistants, among them Judith Leyster. His younger brother Dirck Hals was probably also an apprentice. Hals was famous for his loose manner of painting, referred to by his contemporaries as 'the rough style'. This style has been both admired and reviled down the centuries. Hals tended to concentrate on portraits, and painted some superb civic guard pieces. He died in 1666 and was buried at St Bavo's, Haarlem’s principal church.

Hal: "Listen, I still think I'm your prince. Do you want to know why?"
Apple: "What is your story?"
Hal: "Well, I wasn't born a prince."

I created this image for 52 weeks of 2014, and then noted that it would fit in nicely for ODC as well.

The HAL Tejas (Sanskrit: Tejas तेजस् (help·info): ;Radiance") is a lightweight multirole jet fighter developed by India. It is a tailless, compound delta wing design powered by a single engine. Originally known as the Light Combat Aircraft (LCA)—a designation which continues in popular usage—the aircraft was officially named "Tejas". by then Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on 4 May 2003.
Limited series production of the Tejas commenced in 2007; it is currently projected to achieve limited initial operational clearance (IOC) with the Indian Air Force (IAF) by 2008, followed by full operational clearance (FOC) by the end of 2010. A two-seat trainer variant is also in development (exited the production line as of November 2008), as is a naval variant capable of operating from the Indian Navy's aircraft carriers. The IAF is reported to have a requirement for 200 single-seat and 20 two-seat conversion trainers, while the Indian Navy may order up to 40 single-seaters to replace its Sea Harrier FRS.51 and Harrier T.60.The LCA naval variant is expected to take to the skies by 2009.
Through the use of modern design techniques, lightweight materials and composites, it is expected to become the lightest modern jet fighter in production.
Willem Coymans (1623–1678) was a member of one of Holland's wealthiest merchant families. Their crest of oxen heads hangs on the wall; the Dutch name Coymans literally translates as "cow men." Below the shield, a Latin inscription states that Willem was 22 years old in 1645. Hals rarely dated his pictures. Since his few dated paintings normally also provide the subjects' ages, the inscriptions must have been requested by the patrons to serve as genealogies.
Hals was the first portraitist who consistently depicted his subjects seated sideways, with their arms hooked casually over the backs of their chairs. Coymans, an elegant dandy proud of his expensive clothes, wears an embroidered jacket and sports a pom–pom on his hat, which is pushed forward rakishly. Hals' dazzling brushwork is especially evident in the gold embroidery and the crisply pleated shirt–sleeve.

KSMO (Santa Monica Municipal Airport) - 04 MAR 2007
Hal Fishman in his BMW leaving Santa Monica Airport.
Hal is a local news anchor on KTLA Channel 5. He is the longest-running news anchor in the history of American television.
*** Update ***
Hal Fishman's last broadcast was on July 30, 2007, eight days before his death.
On July 31, 2007, the night before Fishman became ill and after his last broadcast, KTLA celebrated his 47 years in television with a special gala at the Autry National Museum in Los Angeles. The event was emceed by Morning Show anchor Michaela Pereira and attended by such dignitaries as Los Angeles mayor Antonio Villaraigosa and Los Angeles County sheriff Lee Baca. During the gala, Fishman spoke to the audience about his time in television. He appeared somewhat fatigued but little would be known about his condition until the day after.
Fishman died August 7, 2007 at home, 18 days before he would have turned 76, following recent treatment for a liver infection, which had detected cancer in his liver and colon. That morning, the station interrupted its regular news schedule and dedicated much of the Morning Show and Prime News broadcasts to Fishman. The reporters on Prime News did not break for commercials that evening. His body was soon cremated.
Only 29 blocks to go, Lily Peeps! Now is the time to get serious about the layout of dear HAL.
I've had many, many thoughts about color layout and really ought to do a blog post about them to solicit input and advice from you, my quilty friends. So, tonight I will sleep and mull it over then try to put my thoughts and questions into words tomorrow.
Ok, Bit... Loving the Hex a long by Gail Brindley : gaylebrindley.wordpress.com/ and also Lily's Quilts: lilysquilts.blogspot.com/2011/07/hexalong-starts-here.html
My Hexagon was 5 1/2 inches. Probably should have started with a six inch.
This Chicago landmark, located on 18th Street in Pilsen, was built by Bohemian immigrants and opened in 1892. In its early days it served as an important hub of community and included a gorgeous theater space and public hall, apartments, and storefronts. In more recent years it has suffered greatly from neglect, bad management. and unfortunate renovations. It was purchased earlier this year by the owner of the popular Empty Bottle nightclub, who is currently in the midst of an ambitious renovation of the building that should return much of the space to its original splendor.
