Another shot of the lovely corsair, flying along inverted. At Flying legends, Duxford.

My two favourite things together - flowers and waterdrops :)

Nikon FE2 Fuji Reala

I just worked this technique out today, though it's probably common knowledge. I first tried using a bricks with studs on two sides (a davros), but that ends up 1/2 a plate too high.

Same as the previous photo but inverted so the Airport is inside the sphere :)

I like playing with different effects.....

Since every man and their dog are putting up pics of the big moon tonight, I decided to do one as well, you have no idea how difficult photography becomes when you can only use your left arm ( I dislocated my shoulder the other week).

Anyhoo, to break up the sea of similar shots I thought I would do something a bit different.

So here you go, Inverted full moon.

Selina Frances Smith

(b. 1854 in London, Ontario, Canada - d. 15 July 1938 at age 83 in Victoria, British Columbia) - Burial - Ross Bay Cemetery, Victoria, British Columbia, Canada

 

Clipped from - Times Colonist newspaper - Victoria, British Columbia, Canada - 16 July 1938 - WAS PIONEER MUSICIAN - Funeral services for Miss Selina Frances Smith, one of the oldest professional musicians of the city, who passed away yesterday at her home, 104 Dallas Road, will be held Monday afternoon at 2.15 in Haywrard's B.C. Funeral Chapel. Dean S.. H. Elliott will officiate and interment will be in the family plot in Ross Bay Cemetery. - Daughter of the late. M. R. Smith, pioneer who established here the first biscuit manufacturing firm In western Canada, and and Mrs. Smith, Miss Smith was born in London, Ontario, in 1854 and came with her parents to this city a few years later. She attended the old Angela College for some years, later returning east to attend Toronto College of Music under the late Dr. Torrington, and from there proceeding to Leipzig, Germany, to complete her musical studies. She there won a gold medal in 1899, following a period of tuition with H. M Field. On her return to Victoria, Miss Smith established a studio with much success until failing eyesight interfered with her work two years ago. She was also well known on the concert stage in the early days as a brilliant pianist. She was a member of the Victoria branch of the B.C. Music Teachers' Federation. Surviving are two brothers, Hamilton Smith and Garrett Smith, living at the old family home on Dallas Road. LINK - www.newspapers.com/clip/120964407/obituary-for-selina-fra...

 

Selina Frances Smith (African-American, music teacher, $900) made a very good income as a private piano instructor to the elite families of Victoria. Her family also ran one of the pioneer manufacturing concerns in the city, an industrial bakery begun by her father Moses Roe Smith in the 1860s. Smith lived in the family home known as “Seaview” on toney seaside Dallas Street with her widowed mother (who took an active part in the business) and her younger, single brother Hamilton (who reported $2000 in earnings).

 

Selina Frances Smith made a good income ($900.00) as a music teacher to the elite of Victoria, yet both her mother’s and brother’s work in the commercial bakery business founded by her father was the primary means of support in the household. (Smith continued to live in the family home, Seaview, for the rest of her life, inheriting it on her mother’s death.)

 

(Selina's Mother) Died Apr, 1913 at Victoria, British Columbia, Mrs Sarah Anne Smith, aged 75, native of London, Ontario. She came to Victoria 51 years ago with her husband. They resided 1st at Esquimalt, then moved to Fort Street, where their bakery and confectionery business was well known. Later on, Mr Smith built a factory on Niagara Street. She leaves one daughter, Miss Selina Frances Smith, one of this city's best known musicians, and 2 sons, Hamilton, Vancouver, Garrett, Victoria. Pallbearers: Judge Harrison, Messrs W H Langley, J C Newbery, R Boyns, W G Cameron, J H Johnstone. It was 51 years ago that she left her home in London, Ontario, to join her husband, who was then stationed at Esquimalt, where he enjoyed the distinction of being the 1st man to obtain the contract for supplying bread to the navy. Mrs Smith came here by way of Panama, and on her arrival she and her husband took up their residence in Victoria proper. The biscuit factory with which Mrs Smith's name is inseparably connected was the 1st one to be established in British Columbia, and was originally located at Esquimalt. It was not until later that the site which it occupied on Niagara Street was purchased. That the deceased lady, who from earliest days was noted for her benevolence and kindliness, was not more prominent in the society of the city was probably due to the fact that she was essentially a home-lover and devoted her spare time to her family and her household.

 

Her father - Moses Rowe Smith arrived in Victoria in 1858 from London, Ontario. He was joined in 1866 by his wife Sarah Anne and daughter Selina Frances. He had been engaged in the bakery business there. He set up his bakery on the south side of Johnson Street, but shortly moved to the north side of Yates Street between Store and Government St. He soon got the contract to supply the Navy ships anchored in the harbour and also the prison ships. This required him to bake 3500 loaves of bread a day! To do this he installed 4 large ovens in his Victoria bakery and opened a branch in Esquimalt. Mr. Smith then obtained a contract to supply bread to the navy which he held for many years. LINK to the complete article - bcblackhistory.ca/the-m-r-smith-bakery/

As it refused to turn the right way I up I inverted this photo and cropped it very slightly for better composition. I love the little tails and eye spot on its hind wing!

Ari’s first day of mermaid lessons. When she arrived at the pool she confessed that she loves the ocean and wants to learn to surf but doesn’t know how to swim and was afraid to put her head underwater. Within an hour I shot this of her in the deep end. Arianna is totally professional and focused on acquiring skills. Bravo! You may be a mermaid yet!!

Andromeda 450 kpc Survey - Deep survey of the halo of M31

Deep survey of the halo of M31

 

The outskirts of galaxies contain vital clues to their formation history. It is in these regions that new material continues to arrive as part of their ongoing assembly, and it is also in these regions that material was deposited during violent interactions in the galaxy's past. Furthermore, the long dynamical timescales ensure that debris from accreted material takes a long time to be washed away by the merger process. This means that many formation legacies can be detected as coherent structures in space.

 

Andromeda is the nearest large spiral galaxy and the only other significant one in the Local Group. In many ways, Andromeda is the Milky Way, having very similar total masses, they share a common origin and, probably, the same ultimate fate when they merge. However, there are significant differences between them. M31 is slightly brighter than the Milky Way and has a higher rotation rate and a bulge with a higher velocity dispersion. M31 has a globular cluster system with ~500 members, about 3 times more than the Milky Way.

 

Andromeda's disk is also much more extended, but is now forming stars at a slower rate than the Galaxy. There are indications that the Milky Way has undergone an exceptionally low amount of mergers and has an unusually low specific angular momentum, while M31 appears to be a much more normal galaxy in these respects.

 

Andromeda has one compact elliptical galaxy (M32), three dwarf elliptical galaxies (NGC 205, NGC 147, NGC 185) among its entourage of 41 satellites, as well as no dwarf irregular (dIrr) star-forming galaxies within 200 kpc. The Milky Way has no ellipticals but two dIrr (Magellanic Clouds). However, it is perhaps in their supposed halo populations that the differences between the two galaxies are most curious and interesting.

 

This study of mine, based on ultra-deep imaging, highlights faint structures in the extended halo of M31, NGC 147 3 NGC 185. Some structures appear here for the first time.

Middle School Number 3 is one of 5 secondary schools in Pripyat. Located on Sportivnaya Street, right next door to the indoor swimming pool. It is famous for the collection of gas masks but the cloakroom numbers give a poignant reminder of the children who would have gone to school here.

 

Where are they now? Did they survive? Did their parents survive? What do they remember of the disaster?

Questions which will probably never be answered following this terrible event.

... quien me iba a decir a mí que iba a hacer este tipo de imagen, tan de moda por internet.

Bueno pues es por el tema semanal que toca en el proyecto "Teleidoscope 2014".

Tengo que decir que las imágenes son mías, hechas en el Monasterio de Uclés, en Toledo.
