Six Mile Creek was really rushing. Stormy conditions made for muddy water but the leaves were still on the trees.

A brief, "behind the scenes" look at the secret base of the League of Heroes.
From left to right:
LEFT - The Lab / Work Station: A section of the base that is set aside of experimenting on new cutting edge technologies, studying clues left by villains to solve crimes, and this area can also act as a first-aid center in times of emergency.
CENTER - The Armory: A high-tech armory is situated in the sub-basement below Level H. Using the bases computer, a hero can cycle through a vast underground vault of costumes, armor, and weapons which are hydraulically lifted to the glass doors for easy access. Currently on display are the Mk I and Mk II Silver Sentry suits of armor.
RIGHT - The Super Computer: Situated by the vault hatch entrance is the League's super computer. It can process files from law enforcement databases, play media, and responds to voice command from League members. All of the bases various functions can be coordinated from the computer.
My original teaser for "Level H" before some spring cleaning:

Took my young son up to Wookey Hole in Somerset on Monday - he loved it! The weather was awful all day but on the way home the clouds started to part and I managed to capture this shot of the Somerset Levels.

A rather work stained GBRf Class 92 Co-Co 92023 heads light through Tamworth running as 0Z92 09.34 Crewe HS to Willesden TMD. I trust it will get a spruce up before starting work on the Caledonian Sleepers.

SOURCE INFO
- Original image was captured using a Canon PowerShot A75 3.2MP 3x Zoom digital compact camera (at Medium resolution = 1600 x 1200 image size).
Artefacts on each one of days gone by. Pictures do not do the scale of Dinorwic justice. The building bottom right is probably the same size as your average house!
"I grew up breaking stones. As a young person, I realized that carving is an interesting process, one that also helps make good friends"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For me this photo is a lesson in patience I learned from Sam Abell, and that is to stay with it.
I saw the hole carved in the rock and I thought it was interesting with the background of the building, but I waited.
The artist placed a level in the opening and I thought that was a nice add, but I kept waiting.
A gust of wind came along and hit the level and boom I had a shot.

Sculpture Nova Scotia has invited a group of experienced stone artists to create large-scale works and demonstrate their skill in the open air on the Halifax Waterfront. Presented in partnership with Waterfront Development, this creation process forms the core of a month-long, outdoor sculpture-arts festival from Sept. 19 to October 17 in Salter.

"If you took a gondola around water level at night, the view was almost beautiful. Maybe if I didn't know what went on inside those walls I'd feel better about looking at it."

There were bridges at many of the upper level street corners, but at water level, boats of all sizes and types were used to move from one block to the next. Breathing filters were popular, if only to dampen the smell.

View from the sky bar at level 33 of the Traders Hotel. As usual: no tripods allowed. Luckily, I had my littel gorillapod with me and could make a view shots before it was discovered.
This one is made from 2 raw images. I created 3 exposures for each and stiched the 6 images in Hugin in HDR mode.

In the 1960s, the following view of GDR consumer goods production resulted from ten thousand metres above sea level: mopeds came from Suhl, cars from Zwickau, sausages from Eberswalde, marmalade from Mühlhausen and Spreewald gherkins from there.
Cameras came from Dresden and the lenses from Jena and Görlitz. The cameras were mostly called "Praktica". Zeiss Jena quarrelled with the Westableger about who was allowed to use which names. And Meyer-Optik in Görlitz? They were simply lucky. While others were renamed after great models, e.g. Wilhelm-Piek-Stadt, Karl-Marx-Stadt or Ernst-Thälmann-Mütze, the new authorities simply gave the company away to the people. So the Meyers were rid of all their worries and the company was called "Volkseigener Betrieb Feinoptisches Werk Görlitz" for a while.
And the view of the rest of the landscape? A great clean-up after the war, compensation for damages and forced collectivization. The population went to the barricades but nothing changed. People were sent on their way and whoever was able left. A wall was the salvation. In the difficult, uncomfortable times the remaining labourers did a lot. They also had to. Because the assembly line was introduced in Dresden near Pentacon. Result: one Praktica every 45 seconds. Without lens. Jena and Görlitz were responsible for this. To make the plan work, both had to deliver a normal lens every 45 seconds.
Sounds simple, but it wasn't.
Insufficient production capacities, outdated production facilities, great uncertainty among the population, mass exodus of young families from the republic. No good framework conditions for smooth production. And not at all for innovation and development.
But a good time for distraction, e.g. by stirring up an old riot from pre-war days.
The first excitement came at the Leipzig Spring Fair in 1957. Meyer-Optik presented the Primotar E 3.5 50mm and thus increased Carl Zeiss Jena's sales. An unpleasant attack on the Tessar. The points for technology, comfort and price (109Mark instead of 123Mark) went to Görlitz.
However, the peak of the escalation was not reached until spring 1959. At the Leipzig Fair Meyer showed a normal lens with preselection aperture, the Primotar 2.8 50mm. Perfect for the inexpensive and popular EXA cameras. Until then, only the expensive Tessar from Jena was available for these cameras.
But it got even worse. With the Domiron 2.0 50mm for the EXAKTA Varex Meyer showed that not only a good price-performance ratio was mastered. The Domiron was a top product for the world market. The target group were professional photographers and affluent amateurs all over the world.
The Thuringians dropped their jaws. But they caught each other and reacted confidently. The supply of special glasses from Jena to the working people of Upper Lusatia was stopped.
One might think, "ok, you won, it's enough". But it wasn't enough.
In the following patent specifications it is pointed out - unusual for such documents - that the new Meyer lenses are "composed of simple, inexpensive glasses".
