400 mm T-Noflexar f:5.6 and a 600 mm Noflexar f:9 pistol grip fast focus lenses. Full manual telelenses. Adapters for most camera systems. Back in the old days every sports photographer had a Novoflex 400mm lens, when they should capture the magic moments at the soccer games. Today still very attractive for bird photographers. Center sharp and fast focusing. 600 mm at the top, 400 mm in the middle and the integrated shoulder support at the bottom. Adapters at the right.
More interesting gear at the gear set.

Two buses on Trent Barton's service two. On the left is 741 (FJ09 BXF), in normal Trent Barton livery and acting as spare on the route. On the right is 743 (FT09 XPB), in standard "the two" livery.
Unfortunately, best friend forever (BFF)'s face is peeling off the back of the bus!
Both are Volvo B7RLE/Wright Eclipse Urbans. York Street/Victoria bus station, Nottingham.
The 2018 Holi Pilgrimage with Paramahamsa Vishwananda was an adventure of devotion that took place in the heart of bhakti – Vrindavan Dham. During this pilgrimage, devotees from South Africa, Mauritius, Kenya, Japan, China, Malaysia, and many more, experienced the beautiful festival of colours known as ‘Holi’ and visited many of the sacred sites where Lord Krishna’s leelas took place. Spanning over a time of two weeks, the pilgrimage proved to be a transformational experience for all who attended!

I picked up a large 60" grid from the bargain bin at a studio lighting shop in Melbourne on Saturday morning for ten bucks. Must of been a odd size that was hard to shift, having more large'ish squares than I've seen before. Nonetheless, my eyes bugged out when I saw it so had to grab it there and then. My back light has another grid I picked up, it's a 6.5" 10 degree honeycomb which unfortunately I coughed up full price for.........about 60 dollars (AU). It's fitted into a metal reflector from a scrapped traffic light, it was replaced for one with LED's. I fashioned the back of the dish to fit my 550EX and 580EXII. The cutout is lined with black mirco cellular foam/rubber to avoid scratching the speedlites.
The photo above was shot without the subject, I've slipped the subject in from the shoot in pretty much the same position reletive to the size of the lights as best I could, it's not perfect.
So cute these two little girls posing... :¬)
I was very impressed after see this old pictures in my father old film negatives. At the beginning I had only doubts and curiosity thinking about who could be all these people but later while I would scanning more and more negatives I though that this could be a Quilombo Community (a place where slaves who managed to escape from their owners took refuge).
Traditionally the Quilombos were in regions of large concentration of slaves, far from urban centers and in places of difficult access, inside the woods, jungles and mountains.The interesting is that even after the end of slavery in Brazil in 1888 these communities remained isolated for many decades. Even today its like this in many of them. Because of this my surprise! Because of the year they was taken, this could be rare picture, maybe historical? Who knows, as my father and uncles died has many time, I will never know. I estimate that the photos are from the end of 1930'ies or beginning of 1940'ies.
In these photos seems they wore their best clothes specially to take the pictures. :¬)

Fiquei muito impressionado ao ver estas fotos nos antigos negativos do meu pai. No início eram apenas dúvidas e curiosidades a respeito de quem poderiam ser estas pessoas, mas, depois, enquanto eu ia escaneando mais e mais negativos cheguei a imaginar que esta poderia ser uma Comunidade Quilombola (Quilombo era o lugar onde se refugiavam os escravos que conseguim fugir de seus donos).
Tradicionalmente, os Quilombos eram em regiões de grande concentração de escravos, afastados dos centros urbanos e em locais de difícil acesso, embrenhados nas matas, selvas ou montanhas. O interessante é que, mesmo depois da abolição da escravidão no Brasil em 1888, estas comunidades permaneceram isoladas por muitas décadas. Ainda hoje é assim com muitos deles. Por isto a minha surpresa! Por causa da época em que estas fotos foram tiradas, elas poderiam ser raras! Ou, até mesmo, históricas? Quem sabe... Como meu pai e tios já morreram faz bastante tempo, nunca saberei com certeza... Imagino que as fotos sejam do final da dácada de 1930 ou início da década de 1940.
Parece que elas vestiram suas melhores roupas para posar para as fotos. :¬)

Two-Fisted Tales
By Michael Vance
You can’t go home again. What was revolutionary in 1951 is not today because the revolution succeeded. Risqué then, even Marilyn Monroe seems innocent now.
“Two-Fisted Tales” and EC Comics changed comic books forever. In 1951, they were startling; they set a new standard. That standard was adopted, and has now been surpassed many times.
Well, not entirely. The early issues of “Mad” magazine remain unequaled. Certain stories from “Tales from the Crypt”, “Weird Science” and other EC Comics are still classics. But the first issues of “Two-Fisted Tales” now being reprinted seem … tame.
An anthology comic, each issue featured four stories. In the second issue, five artists are represented that all became legends.
John Severin and Bill Elder’s “War Story” is set in the Korean War. “Jivaro Death!” by Harvey Kurtzman takes place on the Amazon River. Both use twist endings that were typical of EC, but atypical of Kurtzman’s later work.
Johnny Craig’s “Flight From Danger” travels to Germany during WWII. Aboard an 18th century ship, Wally Wood spins the tale of a man’s impression into the British navy in “Brutal Capt. Bull”. Craig’s tale of the attempted flight of a scientist to America and Wood’s adventure both fall short of the heights these artists were to reach.
But in ’51, they must have seemed as wild as Monroe.
They lack the sophistication of later “Two-Fisted Tales” stories because most ‘50s comics lacked the maturity that this title and other ECs would eventually inspire. In their day, EC would inevitably become so controversial that they helped trigger the near death of the entire industry under the pink eye of Senator Joseph McCarthy!
Genius has to start somewhere. Alas, genius never stands unchallenged. But don’t save your pennies for later, more innovative issues, or the complete series will never see the light of day. And, at one time, it was the light of day.
“Two-Fisted Tales #2/$1.50, 31 pages, published by Russ Cochran/available in comics shops.

Day Twenty Four:
Well we say two faces but really it's probably three or four perhaps even five of six. We're almost certain that some people will go into double figures with theirs.Those are the ones you have to look out for.
There's the everyday one that's on show for all who can see. That's the nice clean one that inspires angelic music every time you smile. Of course that only to drown out the devilish laughter of the absolutely filthy face that hides underneath. The one that giggles when people fall over, that takes the last biscuit and blames it on the kids, that knows what sort of magazines are on the top shelp and has worked out just how much you need to stretch to reach them. It's just a smidge.
Oh but then there's the others. The ones that are so terrible that you even pretend they don't exist but we all know they're there. We see them sneaking out when the libations flow free or the sugar takes you to new heights. That's the on that you want to watch out for. The uncontrollable one. The one that goes out for lunch and a pair of shoes and comes home with a volcanic lair and quasi futuristic outfits.
It can happen.
