"Know more about something than a frog knows about bedsheets"
Part of a series I am doing that represents Spectres of Doom. The intention is that these will be printed and hung on the wall for the main image that I’ll take that illustrates a theme.
Apologies if you’ve seen something similar from me before but I needed to do this image without the other objects that were present in my previous take.
Leave the blah-blah-blahs behind.
Sterling silver pendant featuring newsprint from the NY Times art reviews.
I took this through a metal gate, hence the bokeh in the foreground. I like this photo but I think my bride must have been wearing contacts as it's made her eyes look a bit processed, which they weren't.
The Eddystone name and trademark was first registered in 1925 and the lighthouse device, bearing the name of the famous lighthouse off Cornwall, was a great visual metaphor, signaling strength, communication and reliability. The first radio set, bearing the name 'Eddystone' was manufactured in 1926 and by the 1930s, Eddystone products were very much focused on short wave sets, reflecting the global interest generated by radio amateurs.
What's fascinating about Eddystone, is that the former Birmingham based radio company was initially rooted in the hair-clip and badge manufacturing business. Known as Stratton & Co Ltd, the company specialised in this market but a significant change in women's hair fashion started a downturn in business. The Flapper 'Bob' hairstyle fashion of the Roaring Twenties resulted in many women cutting their hair significantly shorter and the need for hair-clips was not a priority!
Running parallel to this fashion phenomenon was the groundswell of interest in the emerging radio technology and Stratton's decided to diversify into this new market by making small radio components for local and global markets.
By the 1930s Eddystone receivers were being used for many scientific expeditions such as the British Arctic Route Expedition and the Hudson Strait Settlement Expedition. This gave their equipment an excellent reputation with a strong endorsement from the forces during the WW11 years.
Although Eddystone was eventually sold to Marconi, the name Eddystone Radio Company became part of Marconi Communications Ltd with a sales focus on professional receivers and broadcast transmitters.

soooooooooo because my license was stolen, I had to be dropped off to this spot, which is roughly 7 blocks from my house... aaand because my phone is broken I couldn't call to be picked up when I lost allthe feeling in my toes because the snow got into my shoes, I walked... and by the time I got back to the house I felt like my toes were going to fall off and aaalll I could think about was getting rid of the pain in my feet and hands, so I didn't think to take off my mudd-ridden shoes before I trecked it all around the house. I then went to put my feet in warm water to try and alleviate the pain. That was dumb. waaa waaa waaa crying in pain. And then it went away after I put towels on my feet and sat for a minute sniffling. Good story.

“Oh when regrets stop
and the silence comes
back to be
a place still for us,
our bodies will tell
their own story, past
all error,
come back to us.”
-Robert Creeley, from “The Eye”

An abandoned drive-in theater sign reminds us of a day where couples and families used to experience the magic of Hollywood all from their car. This weathered sign presents a harsh and poignant metaphor for drive-ins and the cinema in general. - Rio Grande County, CO

An animal called the re’em (Hebrew: רְאֵם) is mentioned in several places in the Hebrew Bible, often as a metaphor representing strength. "The allusions to the re'em as a wild, un-tamable animal of great strength and agility, with mighty horn or horns.
The translators of the Authorized King James Version of the Bible (1611) followed the Greek Septuagint (monokeros) and the Latin Vulgate (unicornis) and employed unicorn to translate re'em, providing a recognizable animal that was proverbial for its un-tamable nature.
The emblem of the town Saverne is a unicorn. Legend has it that a unicorn's horn was found in one of the nearby castles in ruins. It is more likely that a narwhal's tooth was discovered and mistaken for a unicorn's horn.
