This document is a program and invitation for a memorial event for Hannah Senesh, held on Thursday, May 27, 1965, at the Roman Theater in Caesarea, Israel. The event featured the participation of Golda Meir, who was the Foreign Minister at the time.
The program details the event as a production involving friends who knew Hannah, narrators, a choir, and light pictures. The handwritten names in the upper right, "Golda" and "Katherine Senesh", refer to Golda Meir and Catherine Senesh, Hannah's mother.
Hannah Senesh (or Szenes) was a Hungarian-born poet, playwright, and a World War II resistance operative who became a national heroine in Israel.
Her Life and Legacy -Early Life and Zionism: Born into an assimilated Jewish family in Budapest in 1921, she experienced growing antisemitism that led her to embrace Zionism and emigrate to Mandatory Palestine in 1939. She settled in Kibbutz Sdot Yam near Caesarea and became known for her writing, including her famous poem "A Walk to Caesarea" (Eli, Eli).
Wartime Mission: In 1943, driven by a desire to fight the Nazis and help her fellow Jews, she volunteered for a dangerous, clandestine mission with the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). In March 1944, she and other Jewish volunteers from Palestine were parachuted into Yugoslavia.
Capture and Execution: She crossed into Hungary in June 1944 but was captured almost immediately by Hungarian authorities. She was imprisoned and subjected to brutal torture, but she refused to reveal any details of her mission or her comrades, even after her mother was arrested and threatened. She was tried for treason and, refusing a last-minute offer of clemency, was executed by firing squad on November 7, 1944, at the age of 23.
National Heroine: After the war, her remains were brought to Israel in 1950 and buried on Mount Herzl, the national cemetery in Jerusalem. Her diaries and poetry were published by her mother and became a cornerstone of her legacy, inspiring generations of Israelis.

Golda Meir was a pivotal figure in Israeli history, serving as Israel's fourth Prime Minister from 1969 to 1974, the only woman to hold the position. Often nicknamed the "Iron Lady" of Israeli politics, she was known for her strong will and determination.
Early Life and Path to Leadership:
Origins: Born Golda Mabovitch in Kyiv, Ukraine, in 1898, her family immigrated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in 1906 to escape anti-Semitic violence. Memories of this early fear influenced her lifelong commitment to a secure Jewish state.
Zionist Activism: In the U.S., she became a passionate advocate for Labor Zionism and immigrated to Mandatory Palestine with her husband in 1921, where they joined a kibbutz.
Political Ascent: Rising through the ranks of the Histadrut (General Federation of Labour), she became a key negotiator for the Jewish Agency during the British Mandate. She was one of only two women to sign Israel's Declaration of Independence on May 14, 1948.
Key Government Roles:
Minister of Labour (1949–1956): Considered one of her most successful roles, she oversaw major housing and road construction projects and the integration of mass immigration to the new state.
Foreign Minister (1956–1966): She Hebraized her name to Meir and focused on building diplomatic support by establishing aid programs with new African nations.
Prime Minister (1969–1974): She assumed the premiership after the sudden death of Levi Eshkol. Her tenure was marked by the 1972 Munich Massacre, where she ordered retaliation against those responsible, and the 1973 Yom Kippur War.
Legacy and Controversy:
While she was widely admired for her contributions to Israel's founding, her premiership faced severe criticism following the Yom Kippur War, where Israel was caught off guard by a surprise attack from Egypt and Syria. Though an inquiry cleared her of direct responsibility, public anger led to her resignation in 1974. She died of lymphoma in 1978 and remains a complex figure in Israeli history.

As much as I love photography, I love cars the same, but somehow, I almost never photograph cars. I'm trying to correct that!
Here's something - a whole bunch of cars found at a family reunion we had this summer, the other side, featuring Mercedes SLK.
Taken with borrowed Canon AE-1 Program film camera, with Canon FDn 50mm F1.8 lens, on expired Kodacolor 200 film. Scanned with Plustek OpticFilm 8100 dedicated film scanner, using VueScan x64 9.5.

I didn't like it.
This camera acts like a P&S; manipulating the shutter and aperture requires thinking and some extra pushing of stuff.
If you shoot a lot of over and under exposures, it's difficult to tell where you are as all the meter does is blink.
If you got one you know what I mean.
I suppose I could get used to it, but why not just get an A1?

Minox 35 ML with Color-Minotar 2.8/35
Compact camera for 35 mm film with manual focusing, aperture priority automatic exposure and programmed shutter AE.
It was introduced in 1985, about 10 years after the first Minox 35, the 35 EL. It has a broader top, but otherwise it looks pretty much the same. And it has some nice improvements, which make the camera very usable, e.g. it uses a battery which is available today, has an exposure lock and the shutter speeds are indicated in the viewfinder with some LEDs instead of a needle.
Some specs and features:
* Shutter speeds from 1 s to 1/500 s @ ISO 100 (at the long end faster/slower for higher/lower ISO-values)
* Electronic shutter
* ISO range: 25 to 1600
* Lens with 4 elements
* Nearest focus distance: 0.9 m
* For advancing the film you have to swing the advance lever twice
* Switches for self-timer and exposure correction ("x2" = +1 EV)
* Battery test button
* Thread for cable release
* Tripod socket
* Bright frame viewfinder without parallax marks
* If the flap is closed, the shutter button is locked and the electronic is switched off entirely (no battery consumption)
* Exposure lock with half-pressed shutter button
* Battery required: PX 28, 6 V. Or a stack of 4xLR44.
* In the viewer LEDs for P-mode, underexposure/slow shutter speeds (> 1/30), shutter speed ranges 1/30 .. 1/500 s, overexposure. In P-mode only "P" and underexposure/slow speeds are indicated. The brightness of the LEDs is adapted to the scene.
* Minox offered 3 flashes for the ML (and its sister, the MB): MF 35, MF 35ST and MT 35 (the most powerful, GN 26). You can use most other common flashes, but not Minox flashes which are made for Minox 35 cameras with the smaller top (FC 35, FC 35ST, TC 35 for 35 GT, PL, GL, EL).
* A switch in the hot shoe sets the shutter speed automatically to 1/125 s when a flash is mounted
* Size: 32 x 62 x 100 mm
* Weight: 180 g with battery
When buying another camera I got this ML for free additively - "I doesn't work anyway!" It was actually in a poor condition: cracks in the housing, window pane of the frame counter pushed in and the locking lever of the film chamber was broken away. Fortunately the previous owner kept it in the film chamber, so I just glued it on again. But when I pressed the shutter button, suddenly a shutter blade lay across in the lens - and I felt challenged.
So I opened the lens from the front side. Warning: if you remove the aperture ring, you simultaneously pull out a pin, which reaches deep into the camera, and it will require some work on reassembling. But I found the reason for the shutter blade on-the-run: the three blades are hinged between two rings, and those rings are hold together by three screws, which can be found under the aperture ring. Two of the screws were unscrewed entirely, the rings were loose and the shutter blade could slip away. I'm not the only one who has trouble with those screws, like I could see in some videos. If they are loose and sticking out, they can block the aperture ring.
For reassembling you possibly want to adjust the focus ring - with a matt screen at the focal plane and without B. You can darken the exposure meter cell and fire the shutter, it will open for a second, so you'll have time to remove the battery ..
While I was pottering around I noticed, that the only way to close the diaphragm is the aperture ring, there is no further connection. So how on earth the camera can close the diaphragm in program mode? The answer: it isn't necessary. In program mode (aperture ring to "P") the diaphragm is fully opened, and the camera uses the shutter blades instead to stop down, like on the Lomo LC-A and Konica C35. Nice design. BTW, it is the toggling between the two exposure modes which requires the pin on the rear of the aperture ring, which reaches deep into the camera.
You probably know, that older Minoxes are sometimes not very reliable: the shutter makes click, but it doesn't open. I thought, that this flaw was eliminated on later models, but I have the same trouble with the ML. And maybe I found a solution. If you open the camera back you can remove the baffle around the lens. It's just clicked in, but it is somewhat delicate, the two hooks are on top and below. With the baffle removed you have an excellent view onto the shutter assembly. You can see two magnetic coils, the one on top opens the shutter, the one below closes it. In front of each coil is a lever which is pushed away, when the coil is activated. Each lever is catching a pin which is connected with the shutter blades, when the shutter is cocked by operating the advance lever. It are those pins which are released, when the shutter is fired. Now, sometimes, the closer-pin is not pushed far enough to be caught when the advance lever is turned. That means, the shutter doesn't leave the closed position, and is already closed when the shutter is fired. So, on the right side you can see a strong lever, shaped like a fork, which transmits the movement from the advance lever to the shutter. My idea is, to "lift" that lever a tiny bit, so that the closer-pin is pushed further and can be caught. For that I loosen the two strong screws which are holding that lever, then I pushed the lever minimally upwards (and tightened up the screws again of course). As a result, the closer-pin is always caught, the shutter opens whenever the shutter button is pressed. I don't know, if this is working on every Minox 35, but here it looks very promising, still not tested with film though.
