Three of these were painted in 2002 before the Calgary GT. The fourth was finished this morning. Now the rules state objectives have to be on 40mm bases, I had actually done that for the "beer and nuts" objective, but ammo and chips I had to rebase. Maybe I should have added skulls, my basing and rebasing strategy is basically sand, plastic skulls, and plastic Nurglings. I used some Contrast paint on the newest objective, but I also uses washes, glazes, and hand painted highlights.
14 September; UNAMID’s Rule of Law Section, in collaboration with World Health Organization and the State Ministry of Health conducted sensitization sessions
for prisons, inmates, prosecutions and the Judiciary staff in Zalingei, Central Darfur. The objective of the sensitization sessions is to create awareness on spread
and mitigation measures on COVID-19 pandemic to ensure a safe and healthy environment for justice delivery by rule of law institutions.
Hygiene materials were also distributed during the sessions as part of UNAMID’s support to the Government

Brussels, Dendermonde and Ghent, 23 Nov 1981
·
In November 1981, I stayed with friends in Dendermonde, Belgium for a few days and on 23 Nov, I took a train ride to Brussels and watched the activity at, IIRC, South (Zuid, Midi) Station.
Among my objectives were photos of the TEE train Etoile du Nord, one of the premier trains on the Amsterdam-Brussels-Paris route, composed of Budd licensed stainless steel cars. With their red stripe, the French TEE stock looked like what SP cars might have if SP had not thrown in the towel on passenger service. The Etoile du Nord was primarily a Brussels-Paris train, but a 4 car section came from Amsterdam and was switched onto the section with the dining car that originated in Brussels. The switching was done quckly and efficiently by a little diesel switcher that also had an Italian sleeping car this day.
Among the other trains that I saw were another Brussels-Paris train behind an SNCF electric, IC trains Saphir (Ostende-Brussels-Koln), and Iris (Brussels-Luxembourg-Zurich) and an Italy-Brussels overnight train, plus numerous EMUs and locals.
After a few hours in Brussels, I went to Ostende, then returned to Dendermonde via Ghent, it seems. The Ostende photos will be scanned later.
That night, my friend and I went to Ghent and I took a few night photos.
Staying on the 'martyrdom' theme that fits my Word Bearers - and also, pleasingly, the 'make it entirely from bitz so it doesn't cost anything' theme!
Most of the tree (and the noose) is made from twisted brass wire. I add Dryad bits to the tree to flesh it out a little.
Santa was nice to me this year and left me a Nikon D700. Here is one of my test shots at in a very dim lit alley at ISO 6400

At the end of their first year at the U.S. Naval Academy the freshmen, known as plebes (for plebeian), undergo a ritual rite-of-passage that symbolizes their transition from lowly plebes to full-fledged midshipmen. This event is known simply as "Herndon" or the "Plebe Recognition Ceremony." The tradition has endured at the Naval Academy for many years.
The challenge: to scale the 21-foot tall gray granite obelisk, remove the "dixie cup" plebe hat on top and replace it with a midshipman's cover. To make it more difficult the tower is greased; this year with 36 pounds of butter, two gallons of canola oil and several tubs of vegetable shortening.
At the sound of a cannon blast, more than 1,000 eager, screaming plebes charge toward the Herndon monument. As they attempt to climb the lard-covered monument and sweaty bodies mix with the slippery slime, early optimism succumbs to gritty determination. Agony shows on the faces of those at the bottom of the pyramid as they support upon their shoulders three or four tiers of bodies above them. Those at the top strain to climb as high as possible in order to switch out the hats before losing their balance and falling into the mass of classmates below. Only by using discipline, teamwork and courage can they achieve success.
The fastest time for climbing a greased monument was 20 minutes in 1972. The longest time was 4 hours and 5 minutes in 1995.
DSLR Skills 2010 ~ Module 2 ~ Still Life ~ Advanced homework.
The objective of this assignment was to use an artificial light (desklamp, torch or even flashlamp with snoot) and a strong object to create an image in which the subject's shadow was an integral part of the composition. The white balance of the image was to be corrected where necessary.
Going for the grunge look here. I am intrigued by the whole shadows theme... and saw an opportunity to play with colour. When you learn to inject medicines subcutaneously you are taught that plunging the needle into a citrus fruit gives a good idea of what it will be like to push it through the skin ;-) This is a slight abstraction on that because I wanted some red to contrast the green of the fruit :D
The Art Gallery (TAG) at the University of West Florida (UWF),
presents “Points of Departure: Foundations Exhibition”. This exhibition displays the excellence achieved in the foundation courses in the Department of Art at UWF. In contrast to TAG’s annual, juried student competition “TAGGED,” this is an open-call exhibition curated by the foundation-level art instructors.
The objective of “Points of Departure” is to showcase the challenges and successes introductory-level art students encounter in drawing, ceramics, painting, printmaking, photography, digital arts and graphic design. These foundation courses are a crucial component of the program and form the cornerstone to a successful art-making practice. The works created in these classes are presented in a raw, unencumbered, salon-style format to engage students, faculty and the greater Northwest Florida community through a variety of media and expression.

1. Rule of Thirds-In the photo I have taken the main focal point it the flower. The way it is located in the middle of the picture makes it easier for the eyes to really focus comfortably on it.
2. Perspective and depth-The angle the photo is taken at makes the flower seem larger than it originally was.
4. Backgrounds-The background of this photo is very dark and blurred. This helps really emphasize the flower I believe.
7. Texture-The petals have texture.
11. Space and/or Space to Move-there is a lot of negative space but no space to move.
12. Balance-The contrast of lights and dark to make the photo stand out.
13.lighting-The lighting that is used in this photo is hard lighting.
Objective 4: Lighting (side, back, soft, hard, fill)
Types of lighting and how they contribute to the image: The hard lighting is just on the flower making the photo stand out.
Objective 5: Post Production (resize, contrast, sharpening, and others you have done)
Corrections/adjustments made:I used a lot of contrast and using curves so that the lighting is right and the pictures is more interesting.
Objective 6: Critique
Strength:I understand how to use photoshop to change the feel of my pictures.
Area for growth:Don’t rely so much on photoshopto get the lighting I need and try to get photos that don’t need so much editing.
Objective 7: Photographic Styles (ex. portrait, landscape, etc.) – Explain why the settings and composition are appropriate for the style of photography. (How did you create the shot?)
Type/style of photography:Lighting
The camera mode (P, Tv, Av, M):Av
f stop used: f/3.5-5.6

Dear Tomitheos,
Thanks. It's nice to see that you are objective in your thinking. (See Tomitheos Space Blog)
This is unusual, unfortunately. But there are enough thinking people about by whom the facts will continue to spread, despite the deliberate obstructions by the obscurantists.

SCOS Objective 2.03: Describe the developments and achievements of Roman civilization and analyze the
significance of the fall of Rome.
This photo can be used to demonstrate the architectual achievements of the Romans as well as illustrate their lifestyle in that the Coluseum was used for entertainment where gladiators had to fight one another as well as deadly animals.
Vintage French made Solux binocular, good condition for it's age, very smooth focus and clear, sharp image, but fairly narrow FOV. There are no eccentric rings to adjust the objective lens of this binocular, the objectives are held by a cylindrical retaining ring which is tightened from the inside of the objective cell.
By day 4 I had already tagged the 4 major objectives of the trip so I took a side trip to Pyramid Mountain. It's 200 ft shorter than the rest so doesn't make it into the top 100, and there's a trail all the way to the top so it's not as challenging (which was nice with the rain).
In this photograph, I finally finished my head gasket replacement project I have cleaned the engine to try to remove spilled oil. A large amount of oil had spilled onto the exhaust manifold. I didn't want it to be a fire hazard.
Everything has been put back together. I ran a compression test on each cylinder before starting the engine for the first time. I put a squirt or two of motor oil in each cylinder, because the engine has been sitting a long time. I put motor oil on the chain, cam and valve area before I put the valve cover back on.
The engine started and I ran it until I knew the thermostat opened for the radiator coolant. This was done to remove any air in the system. Turns out there was a vapor lock that needed to be removed.
I flushed the coolant and put the antifreeze back in. I immediately changed the oil/filter. Old oil was slightly gray with water due to the mistake.
Compare this photograph, with this one and notice the hoses etc. that had to be removed, to get to the head gasket in the first place.

OPERATIONAL OBJECTIVE CAMERA
The device on display is an element of the standard set of cameras and reconnaissance equipment carried by the SR-71 in the 1970s. It is a stereoscopic camera designed to photograph the ground under the aircraft's flight path. This produces a three dimensional image that greatly eases the identification of the objects that are photographed.
Mindless copying of sentences is not fun with handwriting. Nonetheless, to my amazement, it seems as though many primary schools in Hong Kong coerce their students into completing these cognition-effacing exercises.
If the objective of this book is to teach students to write letters, then logically, so long as a student can accurately reproduce each individual letter, there is no point in having them copy bunches of letters - words - within even greater bunches of letters - sentences - complete with capital letters and punctuation; so there must be another reason; and that students at this tender primary age must begin, sooner rather than later, the tedious rote learning process involving mindless copying and pedagogical dubiousness endemic to Hong Kong is my conjecture.
It's a shame that most Hong Kong primary school students aren't learning spelling strategies in English lessons - this is a Scholastic Book from the US - and instead are treated to beguiling calligraphy activities which treat English words as though they were Chinese pictograms, this whole-language English literacy approach being the absolute worst way to build a literacy base in a human being!
The transfer and multiplication of financial wealth, amongst the captains of educational publishing and the lieutenants of the education bureau, is not a conspiracy theory but a harmful, if not shameful, truth, a boy's father told me. He and his son both hate the skull-numbing reproduction of the Roman alphabet whose pedagogical value has yet to be substantiated by anyone!

In the project Infinite In-Between the author discusses the intermediate field between objectified medical diagnosis and anomalies that avoid this enforced objectivity. The viewer observes the culture of cancer cells and the artist’s cells in incubators, which conventional diagnostic practice explores using standardized procedures, laid down by scientific protocols. On the basis of defined values, a grade is given to the aggressiveness of the cancer cells in the patient’s sample, in the case of the non-cancerous cells, the sample is analyzed using a flow cytometer. The test environment of the artistic project of monitoring cell cultures is carried out intuitively, using sound and focused beams of light that make perceptible something that is otherwise undetectable or uncatchable.

Our next objective was to visit the Burke and Wills base camp at Pamamaroo Creek on the River Darling.
If you like an incredible adventure then read "The Dig Tree" by Sarah Murgatroyd, to find out what really happened on the ill fated 1860 expedition of Burke and Wills. You could not have made it up! Such an incredible and unfortunate story left us wanting to see where it actually happened.
There was dissent within the party and the deputy-leader George Landells resigned. Robert O'Hara Burke split the party, heading north to Coopers Creek with half the men, stores and animals. The remaining men, stores and animals made a depot camp at Pamamaroo Creek and a sign and cairn mark the site of the camp. This camp was used for the remainder of 1860 and for most of 1861.
