Done as part of the "Strobist: Lighting 102" exercise, with a few variations:

First, the lighting in the room was very dim. Sorry, didn't want to mess with it that much just for the purposes of this shot. Second, I shot at f/8, not f/5.6.

Second... um, I kinda missed the part where I was supposed to shoot the subject (ha ha, that's me again) from the perspective of the light. Oops, sorry.

I used an off-camera Promaster 7500DX triggered via PocketWIzard. Other than cropping and stitching the images together, these are SOOC (shot in JPEG).

(For those of you to whom this sounds like gibberish: the idea was to practice moving a light around your subject so you can see how positioning changes it.)

Though not explicitly racing on track days, you get a lot of the same elements.

Brits pulling back to town including the remaining troop leader and Firefly. Both Stugs are out of action after doing no damage to the Shermans.

As was historical, the German's counterattack falters on the outskirts of Asnelles. Overall loses for the Brits are 2 Shermans, 1 Pla CO, and 21 men. The 916th lost 4 men in 1 Komp and 2 in 2 Komp. But both StuGs are gone with one crew lost and now the Brit Arty will start to get established. But the Germans certainly gave the Devons a bloody nose.

going through this exercise to learn a bit more about light and angles - strobist.blogspot.com/2007/06/lighting-102-unit-11-positi...

Equipment: Nikon D70, Vivitar 283 on camera, and snooted to trigger optical slaved remote. Sunpak 433D off camera.

The D70 has an integrated flash, but for some reason, it wasn't triggering my optical slave correctly, and the flashs were out of sync. Putting the Vivitar up there fixed the problem.

First there was one..... then two..... then a flock of 5 long tailed tits visited our feeder. Jostling for position, they barely stay in position for more than a second. This one dived in, then seemed to end up in a very awkward position with his feet clutching the inner grid, and tail held up. Most stayed perched on the outer wires and reached in.

The riders from the T70s close assault the 88 position and easily defeat the luftwaffe gunners. At this point we decided to call it. There was no way that the Junkers were going to get out of there with Soviet tanks running amok. The Russian players got lucky with their deployment on the table-not too far off and pretty coordinated. The Germans had some miscues with their deployment that cost them some commanders getting units into action. I had thought about giving the Germans a couple of Marders since there were some in the area earlier, but thought there was just too much firepower already out there. Overall, I think this would've worked better on a bigger table-8X6. I did enjoy getting some new players involved into the TFL universe.

This is a photograph from the first running of the newly situated Irish 3/4 Marathon (formerly the Athlone 3/4) which was held in Longwood, Enfield, Co. Meath, Ireland on Sunday 9th of October 2016 at 10:00. The event is positioned perfectly in the calendar as a key training race before the Dublin City Marathon at the end of the month. This year was the first year that the event was held in Longwood, Co. Meath which is now well known for its hosting of the Longwood 10KM/5KM annual races and a host venue for East of Ireland Marathon series marathons on a bi-annual basis. The race started and finished at Longwood GAA club just outside the village of Longwood. It followed an anti-clockwise course around the beautiful picturesque countryside of south Meath. The course went through the townlands of Longwood, Castlerickard, Killyon, Hill-of-Down, Anneville and Ashfield Clonard, Blackshare, Stoneyford and back to Longwood. The river Boyne and Blackwater were crossed as was the Royal Canal and the Dublin-Sligo Railway line at Hill-of-Down. Overall this was a very different course to the previous years in Athlone. The overall elevation of the course works out at 3/4 of the total elevation of the Dublin Marathon course. What most stood out about today's race was the course and how the countryside around it looked on a beautiful almost perfect Autumn morning. The organisation of the race was first class with every detail taken care of from the start until the finish.

There is a very large set of photographs from today's race - taken at the start in Longwood village, the 25KM mark outside our home and at about 17 miles at the top of Blackshade Bridge and the highest point of elevation on the course. They are available on our Flickr photostream at the following set. www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157673672195732

Strobist Lighting 102 first assignment

Tree base washed into this position by the heavy rain in February. (More detail in “all sizes”). This area is in the wet tropics, the wettest part of Australia. Average rainfall here in the Babinda/Innisfail area is 160 inches a year (4 metres), with some years going as high as 250 inches. This area is in the Belenden Ker Range, part of the Australian Great Dividing range. The two peaks in the range are Bartle Frere and Belenden Ker itself, both just short of a mile in height (5287 feet for Bartle Frere [1622 metres], highest in Queensland). The highest rainfall recorded on Belenden Ker was 11 metres (440 inches) and often it exceeds 6 metres a year. The Boulders is situated between the two peaks, about 8 or 10 km from each.

The Boulders is a popular tourist site and it is old volcanic with giant granite boulders, a gorge the water has formed, and wet tropical rainforest. In 2006 it suffered winds of 250 km/hour in Cyclone Larry and many trees were either blown bown, shredded or lost the top half. This really opened up the canopy. In just one year the trees have shot out with new growth and young ones are rising from the forest floor. It is quite ironic to see the crystal clear water from the ranges, at the Boulders, rushing away to the Johnstone River, then to the sea when so much of Australia is in drought. When I was there last in April 2007, I estimated some million litres of water is “wasted” every 10 minutes. After the floods of February the estimate was somewhere around a million litres a second flowing to the sea between Townsville and Cairns.

Ngorongoro Crater. Cratera de Ngorongoro, Tanzania. Apr/2015

The Ngorongoro Conservation Area (NCA) is a conservation area and a UNESCO World Heritage Site located 180 km (110 mi) west of Arusha in the Crater Highlands area of Tanzania. Ngorongoro Crater, a large volcanic caldera within the area, is recognized by one private organization as one of the Seven Natural Wonders of Africa. The conservation area is administered by the Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority, an arm of the Tanzanian government, and its boundaries follow the boundary of the Ngorongoro Division of the Arusha Region. It has been reported in 2009 that the government authority has proposed a reduction of the population of the conservation area from 65,000 to 25,000. There are plans being considered for 14 more luxury tourist hotels, so people can access "the unparalleled beauty of one of the world's most unchanged wildlife sanctuaries", however, the people who own the land have had few benefits from tourism. None of the senior level positions in the Ngorongoro Conservation Area is yet held by a member of the local Maasai pastoralists.

A cratera de Ngorongoro, é uma das maiores atracções da Tanzânia.

É também considerada a Arca de Noé da África Oriental, por abrigar no seu seio a quase totalidade das espécies animais daquela região, integrados num ecossistema que ainda não foi afectado pela mão do homem. Observado do alto das suas falésias ou do fundo da sua vastíssima cratera, o Ngorongoro é um dos locais mais fascinantes de África.

De fato, a cratera de Ngorongoro é um lugar muito bonito, que abriga milhares de animais selvagens. Foi até chamada de “a oitava maravilha do mundo”, por alguns naturalistas, e pode-se entender o motivo.

A origem do nome, Ngorongoro, é desconhecida ao certo. Segundo a Sociedade de Conservação da África Oriental, alguns dizem que Ngorongoro era o nome de um masai que fazia sinos para gado e vivia na cratera. Outros afirmam que o nome vem de um valente grupo de guerreiros datogos que foram derrotados pelos massais numa batalha ocorrida na cratera há 150 anos. Mas, de repente, quando avista-se as zebras pastando perto do estacionamento, a origem do nome parece irrelevante. Visitantes podem seguir num veículo e chegar bem perto , sem que as zebras nem os notem. A cratera fica a 2.236 metros acima do nível do mar e é a maior caldeira intacta, ou vulcão desmoronado, do mundo. Mede mais de 19 quilômetros de diâmetro e tem uma superfície de 304 quilômetros quadrados, sendo que dentro da cratera é surpreendentemente quente...Ao passo que o motorista percorre lentamente o fundo da cratera, passa-se por um pequeno lago salgado com muitos flamingos rosados A borda da cratera que agora ficou para trás se destaca em contraste com o céu azul. Pode-se ouvir o barulho de zebras e gnus misturado com outros sons exóticos. Sem dúvida, é um paraíso!

History

Located in the middle of the western wine district, is Hollabrunn the transportation hub and capital of this region. The city's importance lies in its administration function and in its position as school location. The main community of Hollabrunn is divided into 22 cadastral municipalities. Hollabrunn is twinned with the cities of Jinhua in China, Kyjov in the Czech Republic and Holič in Slovakia.

The settlement of the Hollabrunner area dates back to the early Neolithic period, in the locality itself have been found traces of a linear ceramic settlement (Linear band Pottery culture). A double grave with rich offerings in Hollabrunner reed "In lower Satzen" could be associated with the Bronze Age. At the mill "Old Hofmühle" in Hollabrunn settlement remains of the Hallstatt period have been located.

Hollabrunn probably originated from a double settlement founded by the Bavarian Counts of Cham-Vohburg in North-South location in the 11th century with separate truce. The first documentary mention of the evolving street village on the old trade route Znojmo-Vienna took place in 1135 under the designation "Holerbrunnen (elderberry well)". From the second half of the 13th century, the respective write variant of the name Hollabrunn in the historical sources also is complemented by "superior", "maior" or "upper". Since 1927, the city on the basis of a decision of the Lower Austrian Landtag (Diet) is named Hollabrunn.

1908 Hollabrunn was elevated to the status of town, its tradition as a market goes back to the 14th century, in a document from 1377 Hollabrunn is first described as a market. Towards the end of the 14th century Hollabrunn still belonged to the domain of the Lords of Sun Mountain (Sonnberg), from about 1394/1400 to that of the lords of Maissau. In the following period the ownership changed frequently, in 1606, finally, Hollabrunn became a separate dominion, fell in 1662 into the possession of the Dietrichstein and was acquired in 1864 together with the market Hollabrunn by Erwin count of Schönborn-Buchheim.

The economic development of Hollabrunn is to be seen in direct connection with its traffic-convenient location along the trade route between Vienna and Moravia. Since the 14th century, in Hollabrunn is regularly held market, fairs, horse, wood, grain and livestock markets established in the course of time. During the last decades, Hollabrunn positioned itself as regionally important trade fair location.

Viniculture and wine trade ​​until the 19th century formed the main industry of Hollabrunner population. East and west of the town extended an extensive wine region, three cellar lanes emerged. Opposite the wine industry, the agriculture, especially the cultivation of cereals and sugar beet, in the 19th century was formative for Hollabrunn, but lost massively during the 20th century in importance. Although currently essential parts of the Hollabrunner municipality are utilized agriculturally and forestally, is the management, however, for the main carried out from the neighboring communities.

The religious life of Hollabrunn in the course of centuries was also determined by the Protestantism and the large Jewish community. End of the 16th century, most of the population of Hollabrunn had already turned to the Protestant doctrine. The attempt of a recatholicization by the Bishop of Vienna, Melchior Khlesl, failed yet in 1605, but was operated successfully after 1655 by Pastor John Reisch, with the support of Capuchins, who had been resident in the locality since 1665. The Jewish cemetery on the outskirts of Hollabrunn is reminiscent of the Jewish tradition of the lieu. Since the 17th century, Jews lived in Hollabrunn, 1901, constituted the Jewish Community Hollabrunn and existed until the year 1938.

In Town Museum "Old Hofmühle" in Hollabrunn in a permanent exhibition colonization and cultural emerging of the district Hollabrunn are documented. Next to the museum building, a mansion from the 16th century, are among the city's attractions in particular the parish church of St. Ulrich, the former Capuchin monastery, the building of the former Archbishop's Seminary and the Art Nouveau houses along the in the 90's remodeled main square.

Bought this guy a week ago on a flea-market, and it's one of my favourite modern Action Man figures. If they made more figs like this one, I'd be much more interrested in this line. maybe that's beacause of his GI.Joe vibe, instead of being an orange coloured, enviromental tree hugging skating loonatic like usual.
