Fermilab Antiproton Source
The antiproton is the antiparticle of the proton. Antiprotons are stable, but they are typically short-lived since any collision with a proton will cause both particles to be annihilated in a burst of energy.
The existence of the antiproton with −1 electric charge, opposite to the +1 electric charge of the proton, was predicted by Paul Dirac in his 1933 Nobel Prize lecture. Dirac received the Nobel Prize for his previous 1928 publication of his Dirac Equation that predicted the existence of positive and negative solutions to the Energy Equation (E = mc^2) of Einstein and the existence of the positron, the antimatter analog to the electron, with positive charge and opposite spin.
The antiproton was experimentally confirmed in 1955 by University of California, Berkeley physicists Emilio Segrè and Owen Chamberlain, for which they were awarded the 1959 Nobel Prize in Physics. An antiproton consists of two up antiquark and one down antiquark (uud). The properties of the antiproton that have been measured all match the corresponding properties of the proton, with the exception that the antiproton has opposite electric charge and magnetic moment than the proton. The question of how matter is different from antimatter remains an open problem, in order to explain how our universe survived the Big Bang and why so little antimatter exists today.

Alakananda river (one of the Ganges sources)
"From the cold quay of the Seine to the fiery banks of the Ganges, the
mortal herd gambols and falls in a faint, without seeing, through a cloven
ceiling, the ominous flare of the Angel's trump, alongside a black
blunderbuss.
"In every clime, under any sun, Death admires you in your
contortions, ludicrous Mankind, and often, like you, scenting himself
with myrrh, mixes his irony with your madness!"
Danse Macabre by Charles Baudelaire
---------------------------------------------
Des quais froid de la Seine aux bords brûlants du Gange,
Le troupeau mortel saute et se pâme, sans voir
Dans un trou du plafond la trompette de l'Ange
Sinistrement béante ainsi qu'un tromblon noir.
« En tout climat, sous tout soleil, la Mort t'admire
En tes contorsions, risible Humanité,
Et souvent comme toi, se parfumant de myrrhe,
Mêle son ironie à ton insanité! »

Monument Valley (Navajo: Tsé Biiʼ Ndzisgaii, pronounced [tsʰépìːʔ ǹtsɪ̀skɑ̀ìː], meaning "valley of the rocks") is a region of the Colorado Plateau characterized by a cluster of sandstone buttes, with the largest reaching 1,000 ft (300 m) above the valley floor. The most famous butte formations are located in northeastern Arizona along the Utah–Arizona state line. The valley is considered sacred by the Navajo Nation, the Native American people within whose reservation it lies.
Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Famed director John Ford used the location for a number of his Westerns. Film critic Keith Phipps wrote that "its five square miles [13 km2] have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West".

History
Before human existence, the Park was once a lowland basin. For hundreds of millions of years, materials that eroded from the early Rock Mountains deposited layer upon layer of sediment which cemented a slow and gentle uplift, generated by ceaseless pressure from below the surface, elevating these horizontal strata quite uniformly one to three miles above sea level. What was once a basin became a plateau.
Natural forces of wind and water that eroded the land spent the last 50 million years cutting into and peeling away at the surface of the plateau. The simple wearing down of altering layers of soft and hard rock slowly revealed the natural wonders of Monument Valley today.
From the visitor center, you see the world-famous panorama of the Mitten Buttes and Merrick Butte. You can also purchase guided tours from Navajo tour operators, who take you down into the valley in Jeeps for a narrated cruise through these mythical formations. Places such as Ear of the Wind and other landmarks can only be accessed via guided tours. During the summer months, the visitor center also features Haskenneini Restaurant, which specializes in both native Navajo and American cuisines, and a film/snack/souvenir shop. There are year-round restroom facilities. One mile before the center, numerous Navajo vendors sell arts, crafts, native food, and souvenirs at roadside stands.

"Tea Ceremony room "key to study of Japan
The Japanese Section of the Department of Modern Language on 25 September marked the completion of work on the Japanese Tea Ceremony Room in a practical Way-by demonstrating the tea ceremony and its roll in Japanese culture.
Mrs Roslyn McVittie, a member of the Sydney Chapter of the Urasenke Tea Ceremony School, told the guests that the traditional ceremony provided people with a wonderful insight into Japanese culture and the Japanese Section was fortunate to have a room where students could learn about ‘the tea’.
Explaining how the room was provided, Associate Professor K. Ono, Head of the Japanese Section, recalled the visit paid by Mrs Yoko Nishimura, from Ube City, in 1982. ‘The Visiting Fellow’s role was to teach students and citizens various forms of traditional Japanese culture such as tea ceremony, flower arrangement, calligraphy and koto music,’ he said.
In conjunction with Mrs Nishimura’s visit, Professor Ono said, the Japanese Section was presented with 750 items of public donations worth $7,000 by the citizens of Ube. They comprise of tea ceremony sets, such as bowls, kettles and whisks; flower arrangement sets, such as vases and needle holders, calligraphy sets, such as brushes, inkstones, inksticks and paper and two kotos (Japanese horizontal harps) and eight tatami mats.
“The utensils have been in constant use by the staff and students of the Japanese Section.
The tools to be used in today’s demonstrations are part of the public donations’
Professor Ono thanked the Property Division for designing the tea ceremony room before Mrs McVittie and two assistants from the Urasenke Tea Ceremony School, and three practitioners from the section, demonstrated the ceremony."

Pardon the pun ;-) Here I parked my bike right in the middle of the river 'Sieg', which also means victory in german. Quite nice to think of it this way.
Of course you can't speak of much of a deed to park your bike in the middle of a river if it's just inches away from the spring. ;-)

Voici un panorama de la grotte Sarrazine à Nans-Sous-Sainte-Anne,
avec sa voûte de plus de 100m !!
Assemblage de 5 raws à 10mm
My primary sources are based on the theme of water, earth, fire and air. i have investigated these elements fairly simply to start with.
When i look at my work I think about how much it fits in with the genre of wildlife and nature. Each of the elements seem to be very nature related. I have also based my work on some previous primary sources that I have taken and I wanted to develop further.
i used a digital SLR camera with a tripod to take these images. i used the macro and landscape setting however occasionally i also used the manual focus setting.
When photographing the water used a fast shutter speed so that every drop and aspect is clear in detail. i would like to investigate what would happen if I used a slow shutter speed. I also used a fast shutter speed to capture my image of smoke.
I have learnt about what setting I may have to use for different photos that are taken at different distances from the subjects.
In my work I have shown that i can use basic elements such as tone, colour, texture, space and line. these help my photographs to become more interesting and intriguing.
I used some rules of composition such as lining thing so that they were not centred to ensure that my images were not too basic or straight forward. I have learnt that the colours in an image really determine how the final piece will turn out.
When i look at my work it makes me feel like I am in the countryside and admiring the beautiful nature and wildlife.
I would describe my work as adventurous as it really explores the aspects of the fire, earth, air and water, relating it to the photographing genre of nature and wildlife. The four elements are natural therefore I think that this genre is a good area to explore and link in with my work.
