Shiny silver- something I value very highly... especially when it clings to my curves as well as this!
I've had this snug fitting strapless gown for so long I've forgotten where I bought it! But that doesn't really matter because it still looks Fabulous, especially in this ensemble!
This is a reshoot of me wearing my excitingly snug and tight fitting silver wet look lycra spandex strapless gown. For this set I've matched it up with silver elbow length opera gloves, fishnet hose and a newly arrived pair of shiny silver platform stocking boots with 6" heels.
I do hope you like my ensemble and the way it hugs my curves as much as I do!

The Kodachrome Pictures:
These recently uploaded Kodachrome pictures have no artistic value. They were just uploaded to be representative of consumer Kodachrome picture recording during about 70 of the 75 years that Kodachrome was commercially available to the public. Unlike in today’s digital world it took time, money and effort to make a Kodachrome slide. We took fewer pictures, trying to stretch resources, but some are still frivolous.
I'm 97. I'm about at the end of my ability to continue posting. The ratio of today’s digital pictures that are kept for any length of time and/or printed is much less than the film photos taken in days past. History will be lost. Meanwhile you get to be bored by some old Kodachromes, Anscochromes, a Dufaycolor and perhaps an old black&white or so.
The Camera...
This sharp Kodachrome, possibly made with the then new Kodachrome II, was shot with a friend’s much better Leica camera and lens. The clarity and sharpness sure put my old Argus AF to shame. I would have liked to have had a Leica but I put my money into my family instead. Lee, the owner of the motorhome could well afford his and was kind enough to let me use it from time to time.
The Film...
Kodachrome was my favorite film. My first roll in the late 30s was such a marvel to a young man. I had tried Dufaycolor which did pretty good, but if it had to be projected you had to ignore the lines of color which made up the image. Kodachrome was so much more colorful to boot. It was extremely sharp and almost grainless compared to other color and B&W processes.
Kodachrome was unique in American film history. Except for a licensee who used Kodachrome’s older process for a few years, nobody made anything like it. Most color films had all the color in the film. Kodachrome picked up color from the processing baths. Also unlike modern slide films which use chemical energy to reverse the negative image, Kodachrome used filtered lights to re-expose within the processing machine. Kodachrome evolved over the years, and was usually the clearest, sharpest grain free color film one could buy. That is until Kodak made a decision to reduce the budget to improve the product in favor of other products and offerings. Fuji Velvia soon eclipsed it in resolution and could be processed locally in regular E-6 mini-machines.
You'll never get wrong with an F430. As for many of you I can't stop loving this Ferrari.

وتسمى أيضا أم السعيد وأم سويد وأبوسلام،
غالبا ما يطلق ثرثراته الغنائية الخافتة في فترة الضحى التي يفضل أن يقضيها على أغصان الأشجار، وبعد الظهيرة ينتقل إلى الأرض ويقضي فيها وقته باحثا عن طعامه.رغم أعداد هذا الطائر القليلة إلا له موطن واسع الامتداد من جنوب الصحراء الأفريقية من السنغال حتى السودان كما أنه يستوطن في منطقة شرق البحر الأحمر أي السواحل الغربية للمملكة العربية السعوية واليمن وهو من الطيور المعششة في منطقة حائل الزراعية وسط الجزيرة العربية وله زيارات نادرة للكويت المعروف أن للطائر طبيعة جوالة إذ أنه لا يستقر لفترات طويلة في مكان واحد إلا وقت التزاوج.يبدأ موسم التزاوج مع بداية شهر يناير وهذه هي الفرصة الوحيد للمراقب لكي يرى الزوجان مع بعضهما حيث يقوم الذكر بالاستعراض في فترة الصباح (بعيد الساعة الثامنة صباحا) برفع ذيله و الاهتزاز أمام الأنثى ثم يطير إلى أحد الأغصان القريبة ليبدأ في الغناء العذب وهنا تطير الإثنى معه إلى نفس الحرش ليختفيان داخله، وبعد فترة ليست قصيرة تضع الأنثى حضنة قد تصل إلى ثمانية بيضات، لاتلبث في خلال 12 يوما أن تفقس وسرعان ما يكبر الصغار ليبدأ ظهور أول اليافعين في منتصف شهر فبراير، للطيراليافع حجم مقارب لحجم أبويه ولكنه أنحف قليلا وله لون بني غامق ضارب للسواد وليس أسودا تاما مثل أبويه.

Timings are ready now. The table show the values between 1/256 power and full power. Using the Puls LA timings for driving the TTL mode gives the right output power.
On the LA you see the X and Q signals. X signal is here 15 usec width and Q signal 25 usec. The delay value between the X and the Q signal define the correct output power.
The X signal need to be more then 10 usec or the flash d'nt works. Large puls is not critical.
I've tested the recovery time, this is the time to start a second flash cycle. This critical time is for this SB-80-DX near 40 msec. This means that only near 50 msec a second flashpuls can be generated. For my waterfigures I need pulses between 1 and 5 msec. So I need 2 different flashes if I will use this option.
For wireless control you have to setup first the powerlevel remote via a protocol.
There after you can give via the RFM12B module a command to fire the flashes. In case of SC-27 Nikon cable (remote TTL cable) you only need to give the X and Q puls at the right time.
Very easy, and lowcost central remote control of all your flashes!

I build a prototype Master with the RFM12B wireless module. The master can also drive local 3 flashes in TTL mode and have an extra LCD display of 2x16 char. The master transmit also the signals to the slave ( slave have 4 flash outputs in TTL mode). Master and slave flash signals are so calculated that all the flash powers are centrered even if the powers are different. This is very important for very highspeed systems. If flashes are not centrered blur into the highspeed capture may happen.

Most of the parts are now soldered on a board to put into a nice box. Within a few days the hole unit will be ready. Picture will be follow.
Update 2009 Sep 21:
new timings are added for the SB-29-S ringflash and some others are updated. The new results stay on:

" Rubió de Sòls, is a new family wine project Also is the name of an ancient historical town called Rubió de Baix or Sols, located in the town of Foradada, in the valley of Rúbies Montsec . It is a natural protected area with species of fauna and highly valued flora, surrounded by well preserved historical and cultural monuments of Catalonia, such as the Montsonís Castle and the Monastery of Salgar.
The farm has planted five hectares of vineyards, divided into five lots, with two different microclimes. Planting is mainly characterized by the majority culture Xarel • LO. It has become a clonal selection of different "xarelos de Catalunya", with the idea of bringing more diversity in the wines. The soils are deep and wide range of minerals and agronomic characteristics of the site are ideal to produce a balanced and highest level of quality grapes.
Precision viticulture work with traditional driving strain in glass and with a wooden stick for each plant. The distribution of the grapes is three-dimensionally, a system that requires manual harvesting. He is a certified organic winery. Registered in the CCPA, following biodynamic principles, particularly to provide organic fertilizers and labor for land. Respect for nature is his priority. The property has a continental climate, high thermal contrast between day and night, and highlights the specific microclimate of the location, defined by the direct influence of the River Segre.
The current facilities of the winery are prepared to produce a quality wine. There is a complete cooling system for the development and mantenimento of wines. A part of the section of production and aging, have a technical laboratory and tasting room. Its production is exclusive and limited to vineyards planted with the main objective to develop a "estate wine" added value comes only with time and the development of fine wines and typical farm"

1. This is value because of the many shades of blue found in the sky and on the mountain
2. The subject is the clock tower and the mountain behind
3.The most visually striking this in this image is the large scale the mountains have
4. If I were to change this I would crop differently or zoom more
Photo taken in 1968. I was originally not sure of the location but after looking up old style number plates I have come to the conclusion it is most likely to be Portsmouth. Possibly the concrete structure to the right might be part of the Tricorn Centre. I have other photos of the Tricorn Centre in my Oldies - UK set.
Victor Value was a budget chain of supermarkets. Tesco bought the chain in 1968, but most continued trading under the Victor Value name until they were sold to Bejam in 1986. Bejam was then taken over by Iceland in 1989.
