My gratitude list and poetry, appreciated by a stuffed pig? And yes, that is my foot... and Anne Morrow Lindbergh's "Gift from the Sea"....
On April 22, 14 girls and two coaches from Brazil who are a part of "Las Estrellas," a sports, leadership and English program, came to Knoxville, TN as part of the U.S. Department of State Empowering Women and Girls through Sports Initiative. After the first day, they had already experienced University culture by participating in Dr. Ashleigh Huffman's Service-Learning class and eating in the cafeteria.
So here's how it works:
> Turning the aperture ring raises the "Diaphragm Bar" behind the lens. At f/2.8 it's completely below the lens opening, and at f/22 it's just below the lens centerline.
> When the mirror rises, it drags this panel up with it; the odd shaped hole in the middle is the shutter opening. The mirror/shutter rises just as fast as its spring can whack it, and returns at the same speed as soon as it reaches the top.
> At f/2.8, the shutter is open for the entire distance of travel shown in green above - it takes about 1/60 second to cover this distance. But at f/22, with the DIaphragm Bar up where the purple line indicates, the shutter doesn't open until it reaches that line, and it closes as soon as it passes that line on the way down. The entire movement takes the same time as before, but the open time is only the time that it takes to travel the distance shown by the purple arrows. Assuming that the speed at f/2.8 was 1/60, this works out to about 1/500 second.
> The aperture at f/22 (and at all other settings except for f/2.8) is in the shape of a triangle with its point at the top - the top 2 sides are the edges of the "roof" part of the shutter opening, and the bottom side is provided by the Diaphragm bar.
It's actually just a little more complicated than this. In the above description, the f/22 opening is not centered on the same axis as the f/2.8 opening, and in fact if the Diaphragm Bar actually went as high as the purple line it would block off the center of the lens. So, in addition to all of the above, at the smaller apertures, the mirror/shutter is actually stopping its upward travel earlier than it does at full aperture. How does it do this? In the view of the Diaphragm Bar at www.flickr.com/photos/rick_oleson/53225547915/in/dateposted/, there is a second, gold colored bar that's coupled to the Diaphragm Bar, with a bent-up tab at its tip. As the Diaphragm Bar rises, this gold bar comes down - the tab at the end is the stop that the mirror strikes against to stop its upward travel. The two bars are coupled together so that the mirror's stopping position produces a centered triangular aperture opening at all settings. Dang.
Whoever did this will probably never be famous - but he was good.

After two years away, the Red Cross Gala returned for its 27th year for a welcome in-person event at City Hall on Saturday, March 19. A cocktail reception in the Mayor's Balcony overlooked the Rotunda and Grand staircase below where dinner tables awaited everyone. The dinner program featured a 3-course meal and was emceed by KTVU-2's Dave Clark. Honorees included Ewing's Sarcoma survivor and blood donor champion Brandi Pico and her family, and corporate partner and disaster responder Rodan + Fields. It was a memorable evening spent celebrating and supporting the lifesaving mission of the American Red Cross!
UWO Graphic arts students present their final self directed projects for critique in the art department in the Arts and Communications building. Tuesday, December 11, 2018.
It wasn't until just recently that I saw Tron Legacy and finally understood what the costumes these dancers wear in Electronica were supposed to be. Now that I know, I don't really care either way. I do like photographing them though.

Designing Programs : Gerstnerizer v.0.5
A series of test images from a piece of software in development called the Gerstnerizer. This is a working tool for graphic designers who want to create their own patterns, save them, share them and export them.
The work is informed by geometric and arabic design as well as having been inspired by the great Swiss graphic designer, Karl Gerstner who wrote a wealth of works on programming and using a systematic approach to design.
