It would have been really hard without Albion and John. Big thanks forever guys. The images are A2 size with an additional 50 mm white border, mounted on 3 mm foam core and locked into un-glazed frames. This was the safest way to freight them and there were no damages, and the easiest way to hang them using the wire system. I would have liked to have gone bigger, but not practical. The smaller size was actually appreciated by everyone for various reasons. Most buyers have ordered prints-only but a couple ordered the framed versions. I'll probably keep all of these for a future show in Queensland. The two Fujifilm X10 images printed up like paintings, very beautiful. The 60D and 6D prints were totally at ease at this size, and very sharp. The two old Canon G10 images were also very sharp, and were the first to sell, which surprised me. Anyway, its a bit quiet now, but I've got plenty of reading material for the final 6 days. Its been a great learning experience - thanks everyone for your words of support.
The Long Beach Convention and Entertainment Center is a convention center located in Long Beach, California. Built on the former site of the Long Beach Municipal Auditorium; the venue is composed of the Long Beach Convention Center, Long Beach Arena and the Long Beach Performing Arts Center.
Long Beach Arena was the first building to be completed in the complex. Capacities are as follows: 11,200 for hockey, 13,609 for basketball and either 4,550, 9,200 or 13,500 for concerts, depending on the seating arrangement.
The arena has hosted various entertainment and professional and college sporting events, most notably the volleyball events of the 1984 Summer Olympic Games.
For trade shows, the arena features 46,000 square feet (4300 m2) of space, with an additional 19,000 square feet (1800 m2) of space in the lobby and 29,000 square feet (2700 m2) in the concourse. Hanging from the arena's 77 foot (23 m) high ceiling is a center-hung scoreboard with four White Way "Mega Color" Animation Screens. There is an 11 by 15 foot SACO Smartvision LED Wall located on the south end of the arena.
The arena was the site of the first NHL game involving a 1967 expansion team, as the Los Angeles Kings and the Philadelphia Flyers, both expansion teams, played on October 14, 1967, the Kings won 4–2. The Kings played in Long Beach for the first half of their expansion season while The Forum was being completed.
In the 1970s, the arena hosted several games of the Los Angeles Sharks, of the WHA and regular appearances of the Los Angeles Thunderbirds roller derby team. The Grateful Dead played the arena on December 15th, 1972; the first of 13 concerts there through 1988.
In 1980–81 the arena was also home to the California Surf of the North American Soccer League for one season of indoor soccer.
The arena was home to the former Long Beach Ice Dogs team, which played professional ice hockey in the IHL, WCHL and ECHL. The Ice Dogs ceased operations of the team in 2007.
The Eagles performed during a benefit concert for California Senator Alan Cranston on July 31, 1980, on what has been described as "Long Night at Wrong Beach".Tempers boiled over as Glenn Frey and Don Felder spent the entire show telling each other about the beating each planned to administer backstage. "Only three more songs until I kick your ass, pal," Frey recalls Felder telling him near the end of the band's set.Felder recalls Frey making a similar threat to him during "Best of My Love"."We're out there singing ‘Best of My Love', but inside both of us are thinking, 'As soon as this is over, I'm gonna kill him,' " recalled Frey. The animosity purportedly developed as a result of Felder's response of "You're welcome – I guess" to Senator Cranston as he was thanking the band for doing the benefit for his reelection. A live recording of their song "Life in the Fast Lane" from this show was included on their live album, entitled Eagles Live. This marked their final live performance, as The Eagles, for 14 years, until April 25, 1994.
Iron Maiden performed four consecutive shows during their World Slavery Tour on March 14–17, 1985. The show on the 15th was recorded and released as a double live-album, entitled Live After Death.
The arena was also one of the sites of the 1986 NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship Rounds of 64 and 32. The teams, which played at the arena, included Maryland, Pepperdine & UNLV. Maryland's Len Bias played his final collegiate game at the arena on March 14, 1986, in a loss to UNLV in the Round of 32. The arena was also the site of the Big West Conference men's basketball tournament from 1989 to 1993. It was the home court for Long Beach State's men's basketball team for several seasons in the 1970s and 1980s.
Run–D.M.C. performed during their Raising Hell Tour on August 17, 1986, with Whodini, LL Cool J, The Beastie Boys and The Timex Social Club as their opening act. The show made news worldwide when gang fights broke out between the Long Beach-based Insane Crips and the Los Angeles based Rollin 60's Crips within the audience, with 42 reported injuries during the incident.
From 2009 to 2016, the FIRST Robotics Competition Los Angeles Regional was held at the Long Beach Arena.
On July 1 and 2, 2017, the arena hosted New Japan Pro-Wrestling's G1 Special in USA shows, which marked the company's first independently promoted shows in the United States.
The arena will host handball during the 2028 Summer Olympics.
Trying my hand at film. Purchased this beautiful camera from a very good friend. This M2 was built in 1958, making it 67 years old and it works amazingly well. All mechanical with no light meter making me learn how to read light.
I like how film slows you down, making you more deliberate and intentional, no spray and pray. I also love the tactile feeling of loading, advancing and rewinding the film, pure joy!
Some of what I love is also what I don’t like. It is indeed very slow with long elapsed time to view your results. It also has limitations as you are stuck with the film stock you loaded. I tried film two years ago and gave up after a few month as I was missing the Immediacy of digital. This time I’m giving myself a year to fully immerse myself in the analog world to see if it’s for me before making a final decision.
