Northrop Ventura Division press release caption:
"APOLLO LANDING -- Three main steps in Apollo Spacecraft 009's earth landing are shown in these pictures taken with a telescopic camera at White Sands Missile Range (WSMR), New Mexico. Dual drogue parachutes (upper left) deploy at high altitude (about 25,000 feet) to stabilize the Command Module after re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. At lower left, three small white pilot parachutes deploy three main 83.5-foot Ringsail parachutes in reefed condition. Largest photo shows three main parachutes fully open for final landing at approximately 25 feet per second. (Note: Two-point suspension permits Command Module to make water landing in knife-edge attitude rather than heat-shield down, thus easing the force of landing impact.) The Apollo earth landing system is produced by the Ventura Division of Northrop Corporation.”

When birds think about flying away they usually lighten the load before lift off...Eagles are no different. I didn't expect such a display but it's a big, big bird. With this image I will migrate away from the Eagle images for a few days to catch up with other birds of prey.

There's a big display in the mall below my apartment complex. This coming year is the year of the money, and in Chinese, Cheburashka is called "Big Ear Monkey," so he's going to be all over the place.

This photograph was taken by Alexander Galloway (1876 - 1945), who had photographic studios in Cessnock, Kurri Kurri, Maitland and Weston in New South Wales, Australia. The image was scanned from the original glass negative, which is held by the Coalfields Local History Association, based at the Sir Edgeworth David Memorial Museum at Abermain, NSW.
Unfortunately, many of the negatives had been damaged by water, but enough survive for us to see our ancestors through the lens of a truly talented photographer.
If you wish to use the image, please acknowledge the photographer and the Coalfields Local History Association in the attribution.
