On a walk around Mona Vale gardens in Christchurch September 4, 2015 on a very cold windy day with Flying another Flickr friend.

 

Mona Vale, with its homestead formerly known as Karewa, is a public park of 4 ha in the Christchurch suburb of Fendalton. The homestead and gate house are both listed as heritage buildings with the New Zealand Historic Places Trust (NZHPT). The fernery and the rose garden, and pavilion with the setting of the park along the Avon River, add to the attractiveness of the property. It is one of the major tourist attractions of Christchurch.

Derelict shed and assorted discarded items litter an abandoned property in Union Road, PEI

The site of the Dolomites comprises a mountain range in the northern Italian Alps, numbering 18 peaks which rise to above 3,000 metres and cover 141,903 ha. It features some of the most beautiful mountain landscapes anywhere, with vertical walls, sheer cliffs and a high density of narrow, deep and long valleys. A serial property of nine areas that present a diversity of spectacular landscapes of international significance for geomorphology marked by steeples, pinnacles and rock walls, the site also contains glacial landforms and karst systems. It is characterized by dynamic processes with frequent landslides, floods and avalanches. The property also features one of the best examples of the preservation of Mesozoic carbonate platform systems, with fossil records.

The wharf in Coupeville Washington was built in 1905 to export grain produced on Whidbey Island. The town sits on Penn Cove, a sheltered bay that provided a safe, sheltered harbor during the early settlement of the area. In 1792 Capt. George Vancouver named the harbor in honor of, as he wrote, “a particular friend.” It is thought that the person honored was either John or Richard Penn, both of whom were grandsons of William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania.

 

Before European settlement, 3 permanent villages inhabited by the Lower Skagit People were located around Penn Cove. The largest village called at bəc̓adᶻali, or “snake place" occupied the site of present day town of Coupeville.

 

Cmdr. Charles Wilkes of the US Navy charted the small bay in 1841. Wilkes was the American born great nephew of the former Lord Mayor of London John Wilkes. He led US Expeditions to the South Pacific (including Antarctica) and Puget Sound. He was an important and controversial naval leader during the Civil War and ended his career with the rank of Rear Admiral (retired).

 

In 1850 Issac Neff Ebey became one of the first non-native American settlers and farmers in the area. Others soon followed and made land claims as provided by the Donation Land Act of 1850. Also, in 1850 Captain Thomas Coupe laid out a town on the shores of Penn Cove which today bears his name, Coupeville. It became the center of commerce for the Island, an important port, and during the late 1800s, home to many active and retired sea captains and mariners.

 

The wharf is a contributing property to the Central Whidbey Island Historic District which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973. To better protect the unique history and landscape, Coupeville and its wharf was included in Ebey's Landing National Historical Reserve in 1978. This one-of-a-kind unit of the National Park System preserves and protects the historical record of the exploration and settlement of central Whidbey Island from 19th century to the present.

At long last, made it to this infamous location on the NC500 route with that red roof - simply a matter of driving around the road far enough, something I've never done before. I would like to think that the owner of this property is having a bit of a laugh at all the tourists wanting its photograph and he has attached a ladder to the roof!

LA FAMIGLIA

Foto 28 zia Ambrosina.

foto anno 1917

UN AMORE IMPOSSIBILE 1° parte

  

Ricordate Pilade, detto Alfredo?

Ovviamente non l'ho potuto conoscere essendo morto nel 1945,

ma affettuosamente lo vorrei chiamare il gigante buono.

 

La maggiore delle sue amorevoli figlie si chiamava Ambrosina,

e nacque nel 1892.

Mi racconta mio padre che era una donna molto bella e dal carattere deciso.

La foto la ritrae in modo stupendo,

sembra una principessa, proprio come Pilade la chiamava.

Fu una pioniera delle femministe,

un movimento che poi si sviluppò molti anni dopo.

L'unica che non ebbe figli, non perché non poteva averli,

ma per via delle avverse vicissitudini che il destino, talvolta,

ci riserva.

E per dirla tutta, anche per un voto che si era imposta.

  

Nel 1915 all'inizio della prima guerra mondiale,

zia Ambrosina a 23 anni, conobbe un uomo di pari età,

un certo Piero.

Il regno D'Italia, cominciava a "scricchiolare" e lentamente si stavano affacciando altri ideali ben più libertari.

Si parlava, ancora a grandi linee di Repubblica Italiana,

direi un tema epocale e molto dibattuto.

 

Anche zia Ambrosina, per la verità,

aveva questo piglio innovativo e trovava quell'uomo così idealista, di un fascino irresistibile.

Non bello, ma ammaliante quello sì quando,

paonazzo in volto dal trasporto emotivo,

faceva una delle sue tante arringhe in favore della libertà di pensiero dei cittadini.

Troppo irrequieto ed incostante,

passava da momenti di euforia patriottica,

a lunghi periodi di apatia e sconforto.

Amava molto la zia,

ma il richiamo della lotta contro la monarchia,

stava minando le certezze della donna.

 

Lui le ripeteva spesso:

"un giorno ti sposerò, ed i nostri figli non saranno dei sudditi,

bensì dei cittadini liberi di una Repubblica Democratica".

 

Dopo un paio d'anni, forse pressato da problemi politici,

sparì dal giorno alla notte,

lasciando mia zia nella più cupa costernazione.

Quell'amore la segnò a fuoco, nessun altro era come lui,

ed andò avanti nel suo ricordo senza mai sposarsi.

Questo il voto che fece a se stessa.

 

Dopo ben 26 anni,

Piero d'improvviso ricomparve a Pisa in modo misterioso.

Tante cose erano cambiate, eravamo guarda la coincidenza,

in piena 2° guerra mondiale,

e tra le altre cose, dell'Italia Repubblicana,

ancora niente da fare, complice il ventennio fascista.

 

Piero ormai con i capelli brizzolati,

si mise a cercare la nostra famiglia,

ed in particolare la "sua" amata Ambrosina.

Mio padre, allora diciassettenne, fu subito preso come "gancio" per l'operazione "recupero di un amore impossibile".

 

Era l'unico uomo che trovò Piero,

per effettuare un primo sondaggio.

Vi ricordo che babbo,

non lo conosceva affatto quel tizio assai strambo.

 

Piero, lo spasimante ravveduto,

raccontò in breve la sua rocambolesca storia di vita all'adolescente Lamberto.

Nel 1917 dovette fuggire in fretta e furia nella notte,

avendo saputo da un amico fidato,

che al mattino sarebbero venuti i gendarmi per arrestarlo.

 

Capo d'accusa, diserzione.

 

Un uomo con quegli ideali,

non poteva certo stare dalla parte del re.

Si rifugiò in Francia, da lontani parenti di sua madre.

Dopo qualche anno, con un colpo di testa da matto quale era,

si arruolò nella legione straniera partendo per l'Africa,

dove combattè svariati anni.

Una volta congedato per raggiunti limiti d'età,

decise di punto in bianco di tornare a Pisa.

Era il mese di gennaio del 1943.

Di sicuro, l'imprevedibilità era una sua caratteristica che lo contraddistinse per tutta la vita.

Anche lui non si era mai sposato,

pensando sempre ad Ambrosina ed ai suoi occhi azzurri,

gli anni erano trascorsi in un baleno senza poter concretizzare il sogno di sempre.

Qualche volta aveva pensato anche di scriverle una lettera.

Non ne ebbe mai il coraggio.

 

Ma come... combatti per la legione straniera,

e non sai esternare il sentimento d'amore verso la tua donna?

Vallo a capire Piero.

It's a bit drafty and the mosquitoes are bad during the summer but the view is breathtaking. There were many interesting things to photograph on this property just North of Elk Island National Park.

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

 

Aquesta és una de les càmeres de cinema més especials que tinc, ja que fou emprada molt probablement a les guerres de Corea i Vietnam per les forces nord-americanes.

 

Es tracta d'una càmera de 16mm (en casets) model KF-4(1), propietat del govern americà. De fet és la versió militaritzada (bàsicament de color verd fosc i negre) de la Bell & Howell 200 Autoload, que feia servir casets Kodak de 50 peus (15 metres aprox.). Pel numero de serie, aquesta sembla fabricada cap als anys 50, tot i que sembla que ja n'hi havien a finals de la II Guerra Mundial. L'objectiu f1.9 / 1" també data d'inicis dels anys 50.

 

Sembla probable que en concret fos una càmera de la USAF, pel numero de contracte especificat a la placa militar. Això també encaixa amb el seu magnific estat (sembla nova).

 

Amb tot, la arribada fou "accidentada" i quan vaig obrir el paquet hi havia dins la càmera una peça solta, justament el engranatge mobil que encaixa amb el caset. El motor funcionava perfectament, però així era inutil. Per sort vaig poder obtenir un manual de reparacions en pdf, i vaig comprar un clon "civil" (la B&H 200TA) per tal de obtenir la molla que em faltava, aixi com practicar el desmuntatge de la carcassa. Ara la meva KF-4(1) sembla funcionar perfectament!

 

====================================

 

This is one of the most special film cameras I have, as it was most likely used in the Korean and Vietnam wars by American forces.

 

This is a 16mm (magazine) camera, model KF-4(1), owned by the American government. It is actually the militarized version (basically dark green and black) of the Bell & Howell 200 Autoload, which used 50-foot Kodak magazines. From the serial number, it appears to have been manufactured around the 1950s, although it appears that they were already in existence at the end of World War II. The f1.9 / 1" lens also dates from the early 1950s.

 

It seems likely that it was a USAF camera, given the contract number specified on the military plate. This also fits with its magnificent condition (it looks new).

 

However, the shipping was "accidental" and when I opened the package there was a loose part inside the camera, precisely the retractable drive gear that conects to the magazine. The motor worked perfectly, but it was useless without this link. Luckily I was able to obtain a repair manual in pdf, and I bought a "civilian" clone (the B&H 200TA) in order to obtain the spring I was missing, as well as practice disassembling the camera. Now my KF-4(1) seems to work perfectly!
