For the past three years, TWELVE has put cameras in the hands of local residents, asking them to capture their view of life in 24 photos or less. TWELVE uses photography to highlight the diversity of people, sceneries and architecture in cities, as well as our diverse viewpoints on life. In the past, TWELVE has collaborated with organizations such as the New York Foundation for the Arts, The Grand 1894 Opera House and Galveston Historical Foundation to help create a final project that both engages the photographers’ imagination, as well as the communities creativity. In 2013, TWELVE will push its own creative limits with new projects and new partnerships that continue to embrace diversity, engage local residents and raise money for worthy causes
All photos were captured using an Olympus Trip 35.
The Trip 35 is a 35mm compact camera, manufactured by Olympus. It was introduced in 1967 and discontinued, after a lengthy production run, in 1984. The Trip name was a reference to its intended market – people who wanted a compact, functional camera for holidays. Over ten million units were sold. The Trip 35 was a point and shoot model, with a solar-powered selenium light meter, and just two shutter speeds.
The Olympus Trip 35 operates completely without batteries. Its light meter and programmed automatic exposure system is solar powered. This makes it one of the world’s most advanced cameras which provides fully automatic exposure completely without batteries or external electrical power.

The Postcard
A postcard that was published by R. I. Severs of 10, King's Parade, Cambridge. It was posted in Cambridge using a ½d. stamp on Friday the 14th. June 1912. The card was sent to:
Geo. W. Wallace Esq.,

Edinburgh.
The message on the divided back of the card was as follows:
"King's College
Cambridge.
Friday.
Did well enough in
maths today; algebra
& arithmetic a little
stiffer than I expected.
Got the dictionary
all right.
Went for a paddle on
the river after tea.
Hot day.
Yours,
Willie."

George joined the Tank Corps in the Great War and was wounded at Ypres. George's tank caught fire, and George was the only one to get out, although badly burned. He required cream to be applied for many years.
George survived the Great War and married in 1944, producing four children. He died at 3a Lonsdale Terrace in Edinburgh on the 24th. October 1949.
Cancer Credulity and Quackery
So what else happened on the day that Willie posted the card?
Well, on the 14th. June 1912, Dr. Robert Bell won his libel lawsuit against Dr. Henry Howarth Bashford, who had criticized his cancer treatment in the British Medical Journal, in the article "Cancer Credulity and Quackery."
Dr. Bell brought the testimony of Drs. Paul Ehrlich and August von Wassermann, who testified that:
"Cancer can be cured in mice by injecting
into the blood stream a specific compound
of selenium and eosin."
Peggy Ann Wood
The 14th. June 1912 also marked the birth in Chiswick, London of Peggy Ann Wood.
Peggy Ann Wood was a British actress, director and theatre manager associated heavily with the Bristol Old Vic.
In partnership with her husband, Ronald Russell (1910 – 1994), she ran the repertory company the Rapier Players, based in Bristol's Colston Hall.
During WWII, Peggy ran the theatre whilst Ronnie served in the Police War Reserves, and once the Prince's Theatre had been bombed in November 1940, the Rapier Players provided the only live theatre in the city of Bristol.
The contribution of Ronnie Russell and Peggy Ann Wood to the theatrical heritage of Bristol was commemorated with a Blue Plaque Ceremony in July 2002. The plaque is situated on the outside of Colston Hall.
