Dwarf Oswald.
Josef Stammel um 1740, Lindenholz
Stiftsmuseum Admont
In fürstlichen Diensten waren Zwerge sehr beliebt. Der Page von Abt Anton II, Oswald Eyberger, war zwergwüchsig. Er lebte im Stift bis zu seinem Tod 1752.
Stammel portraitierte den "Stiftszwerg" in Husarenuniform wie sie damals am Hof der Kaiserin Maria Theresia üblich war. Die etwa 1 m hohe Statue zeigt Eyberger in Lebensgröße. Körperhaltung und Mimik zeigen den Mann trotz seiner Kleinwüchsigkeit in Stolz, Würde und Entschlossenheit.

St. Oswald's Priory was founded by Lady Aethelflaed of Mercia, daughter of Alfred the Great, around 900. The Priory Church, initially dedicated to St. Peter, was constructed from recycled Roman stones. At this time it was a bold and unusual move to build a church as there were frequent Viking raids. At first it was a Christian cemetery, but in 909 the relics of Saint Oswald were taken there. The building was rededicated to the saint and quite possibly Aethelflaed and her husband were later interred in the crypt. Archaeological excavations in the 1970s revealed a 10th century fragment of carved slab from the grave of someone extremely important.
A nice sunny afternoon saw me once again out taking church photos. This is St Oswalds in Althorpe, a small village on the west bank of the River Trent a few miles from Scunthorpe. The grounds of the church are rather small so unless you have a really wide angle lens you struggle to fit the whole place in your field of view.
For this reason I decided to try and use the church as background to the pink blossom hanging low from a tree in the church yard.
My images are processed to look good on my laptop, and they do look good on there - and on my phone and tablet - I am aware though that some other screens will show my images as either too dark or indeed too light. This is due to individual screen settings and not my inability to produce a clear image ....
St Oswald's Church is a Church of England parish church in Sowerby, North Yorkshire, England. It is named after Oswald of Northumbria.
The earliest church at Sowerby of which any part remains appears to have been built about 1140. The fine south doorway was probably built in the eleventh century and most of the stone work in the south wall of the nave is of medieval date. The tower, which contains the remains of the Norman church, was built in the fifteenth century with a hagioscope through which the altar is seen.
In 1842, the church was restored and enlarged in nineteenth century Norman style. In 1883, further restoration and repair included the erection of an open Lantern of woodwork surmounted by a slated spire above the chancel crossing designed by Edward Buckton Lamb, the rogue Victorian architect. In 1902, the north wall was taken down and made into an arcade and a spacious north aisle built.
Edward Buckton Lamb (1806–1869) was a British architect who exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1824. Lamb was labelled a 'Rogue Gothic Revivalist', and his designs were roundly criticised for breaking with convention, especially by The Ecclesiologist. More recently Nikolaus Pevsner called him "the most original though certainly not the most accomplished architect of his day"
He was born in London, England, his father James Lamb being a government official. He was articled to Lewis Nockalls Cottingham.
He was selected to design the chapel for the Brompton Hospital, then being built to the designs of Frederick John Francis, and was retained to complete the main building, in collaboration with Francis.

The LEGO Den has been in transition (in process), so not a lot of building going on. I bought myself a few of the new DC sets, including the Arkham set, so this is the first of what will hopefully be a series of DC related MOCs, so stay tuned!~H
Enfim...depois de uma loonga saga, consegui salvar meu oswald!

Procedimento:
1 - Passe na Melissa o óleo de banana com algodão em movimentos circulares com um pouco de pressão, vá fazendo isso pela Melissa inteira.
O verniz vai sair e vai ficar todo grudado nela, vá passando mais vezes algodão com o óleo até tirar os farelos do verniz, cada vez com menos força.
Exemplo da foto da feapple:
www.flickr.com/photos/34770940@N04/3545825636/
2 - Assim que ficar só alguns granulados, dê um banho na Melissa com sabonete líquido ou shampoo com uma escovinha macia ou com as mãos mesmo - lave até sair todos os farelinhos de verniz e pra tirar o excesso do óleo de banana, que com o tempo ele corroe o desenho, deixando-o menos resistente.
**Eu amoo esse frapê do Egeo Dolce pra lavar as Melissas por dentro, ele meio que devolve o cheirinho docinho pra elas!!
3 - Por fim, seque a Melissa com uma toalha e passe o silicone com a espuminha - aquelas de maquiagem - para "hidratar" e dar brilho, vá polindo toda ela e tome mais cuidado no desenho - passe sem força - depois dê mais uma camada e capriche mais no desenho para guardar melhor!
PS: coloque apenas uma gota do silicone! ele rende mtoooo!!! e se passar demais engordura!
Bom...espero ter ajudado como fui ajudada!
Coisas que a Melissa não faz por vc! (Y)
The West window, St. Oswald's church, Castle Bolton, commemorating Algitha, the wife of the 4th Baron Bolton.
James Oswald (1779-1853) was a prominent Reformist, noted orator, and twice MP for Glasgow. Quoted from the Victorian Web.
Quick update to the fig design coming soon, and also to see if any more people are interested in the product.
Personally I think his face works much better now, as it captures his creepy grin really well.
Let me know what you think! as well as any improvements?
I don’t know whether this is a listed building or not but it is set in beautiful Kent countryside and has a plaque with the date 1854 on the end of the cottage. I am guessing but I think it is a holiday rental now.
Joseph Conrad the Polish born Russian writer, who served for 5 years in the French Merchant service and 10 years in the British merchant service was regarded as one of the greatest novelists to write in the English language, lived near here for some years until his death in 1924. There are memorials to him in Bishopsbourne.
His house Oswald’s cottage is listed. I don’t think I have the 2 mixed up!
MY THANKS TO ALL WHO VISIT AND COMMENT IT IS APPRECIATED
Blick auf den zeitgenössichen Auszug auf dem barocken Hochaltar, den Hl. Geist symbolisierend, hinauf zum gotischen Gewölbe mit dem Christushaupt als Schlußstein. Sehr schön die Farbgebung des Gewölbes.

Some figs based on Nolan's take at Batman. I'm pretty sure these don't need naming, so tell me what you think!
No matter where you are in Disneyland, there is always something interesting to shoot. Oswald's offered a nice picturesque shot with dramatic lighting.
Hauptmann Oswald Boelcke was author of Dicta Boelcke, 40 air victory ace, commander of Jagdstaffel 2 and mentor to numerous German fighter pilots. His Dicta remains a standard for fighter pilots even today. Boelcke and his close friend Erwin Bohme collided in a dogfight on October 28, 1916. Boelcke was killed in the resulting crash of his aircraft. He appears here in a postcard showing him before a group of British prisoners.
The sun continues its steady march South as it is now approaching the northern slope of Oswald Dome for its daily first appearance. We may be in the Dog Days of Summer but the sun tells of shorter days and longer shadows as it lowers it angle of traverse across the sky!!! Mornings are still in the low 70s F / 22.2 C range but the air has a strange coolness to it! We are now almost 6 weeks since the Summer Solstice and days are getting chopped both on the morning and the evening now! Tomorrow is the last day of July and we will begin August this weekend! So only about 7 more weeks of this summer is left!!! School begins here for the children on Wednesday the 5th and their summer will officially be over even though it will be hot as blazes!!! SO LOOK for children heading and leaving school on your daily travels next week!!! Please stop for those school bus loadings and unloadings!
The sun's seasonal movement on the horizon never ceases to amaze me! I get to watch it in the eastern sky but the sunset point is steadily moving south this time of year also until it culminates at its most southern point at Winter's Solstice! Then it reverses and begins its northern trek!!! It doesn't take much to amaze me!!!! LOL

One of my favourite little churches, a survivor from the C13 in the Windrush valley, not far from Burford.
Widford is described as a deserted medieval village today, though a few buildings still survive. The church itself stands alone in a field and the extent of the original village can be seen in crop marks around the site.

I spent a nice hour wandering around Durham towards the sunset at the end of winter. The gravestones at St Oslwad's always look good.
The 13th Century church of St Oswalds built on the remains of a Roman villa here in the Windrush valley Oxfordshire.Near by are the terraces and all that remains of the ancient village of Widford abandoned during the Black Plague. The body of Oswald the King of Norhthumbria rested here on its way to LIndisfarne.

The Little Owl (Athene noctua)
This small owl was introduced to the UK in the 19th century. It can be seen in the daylight, usually perching on a tree branch, telegraph pole or rock. It will bob its head up and down when alarmed. In flight it has long, rounded wings, rapid wingbeats and flies with a slight undulation.
Blick auf die katholische Filialkirche St. Oswald in Dürrenried. Der älteste Bauteil ist der Chorraum, zurückgehend auf eine alten Kirchenburganlage. Die Kirche wie sie heute steht, geht auf die Zeit nach 1770 zurück. Sehr selten in Unterfranken, dass Kirchen ein Walmdach haben.
German flying ace Oswald Boelcke pictured in 1916. Boelcke is credited with 40 victories before his October 28th death.
Really poor quality shot here of Gilligan and Oswald. They are laying on a dog bed that is next to my computer table and I just quickly snapped this shot, as they usually run away as soon as the flash fires.
Apparently Gilligan wanted to lay on the bed and Oswald was already there, so he just lay down on top of him. Really not very nice and Oswald looks a bit unhappy about the situation!! :o)
