Title: [The Torch of Friendship]
Date of film: Early 1960s
Physical descrip: Color; sound; original length: 14:50
General note: Excerpt of original film promoting the Hampton House Hotel in Miami, a business oriented to an African-American clientele. The film describes how notable black men and women of the 1960s gathered there, such as Ralph Metcalf (gold medalist, 1932 & 1936 Olympics), Althea Gibson (Wimbledon Champ), Martin Luther King Jr., singer Jackie Wilson, and baseball Hall of Famer Jackie Robinson. The film follows a formula similar to other promotional films, except almost everyone in it is black. The complete footage shows entertainment, the owners, a fashion show, dog and horse racing, the Miami Seaquarium, the Torch of Friendship, Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle, the Baltimore Orioles, and the FAMU Track team. Produced by Don Parisher.

In January 21st, we had heavy snow in Tokyo. I saw the Tokyo Tower glittering up in the sky like a Torch light.

UP 2001, the 2001 Olympic Torch Relay unit, leads CN A490 across Washington Street in Joliet. This unit along with a similarly painted unit, UP 2002, pulled the Olympic Torch across a portion of the country all the way to Salt Lake City in 2001.
Didnt get a chance to put a description on this shot during the week. Apologies!
This shot was taken using Helen's (check out her stream!) instructions from the latest edition of Digital SLR Photography Magazine.
What I used:
- Background was a sheet of black cardboard
- Base was also a sheet of black cardboard, but with a sheet of glass over it
- Light trails were made using a cheap LED torch (with 7 bulbs) I bought at Maplin's
- Subject is a martini glass filled with water
I used my 12-24mm lens set to 17mm, at F22. The exposure was 15 seconds. I also set the WB to Tungsten to bring out the blue as the LED light was white.
"Light Week" continues--a celebration of actually having sunshine and its effects to play with after all those months of clouds, misty rain, and flat even light...

I took this photo on a dull grey day (the greyness was masked a bit by the post-processing in Lightroom) in July 2013, using my PEN E-PL1 camera and M.Zuiko 40-150mm lens @150mm.
Today, my eyes and soul received this Torch of Faith…

Plazuela de la Rogativa (Rogativa Plaza), San Juan Puerto Rico 2015
Photo taken from one of the four statues sculpted by Lindsay Daen, in the Plazuela de la Rogativa (Rogativa Plaza) in, pay tribute to the bishop and townswomen who participated in La Rogativa.
The story behind this, the target was the super moon. Freezing outside but to my luck its very cloudy day :(
So I thought let me try something, took my diving torch (1200lum), changed the lens and set the shutter to 30 sec, then start walking down this field trying to light the trees. It was not bad after all :)

While sorting out some records, have found this wonderful sounding vinyl 12“/45rpm; pictured is the sleeve standing on a ‚machinery’ of the stereoset.

Apr 09, 2008 - San Francisco, CA, USA - Supporters of China and the Olympics faced off with protesters concerned with China's Tibet policy, clogging Embarcadero Street in downtown San Francisco as the Olympic Torch makes its only North American stop. The Olympic Torch took a secret route through the city to avoid protests.

This photo is shot with the torch as the only light source. No PS edit in this one (except Size and name tag), what you see is what the camera caught RAW. A difficult shot as the fire melted through the lego torch handle which left a photo window of only 10 seconds. After that... I had to save Bilbo from 3rd degree burns.
P.s. Bilbo came out unscathed from this shoot.... though his facial expression will later be that of pure anger, for putting him in the danger zone. He's demanded a vacation which I had to go along with:)
