1. The element that this photo investigatres is value which is represented through the different shades in the sunset.
2. The subject matter of this photogroah is the sunset.
3.I think what makes this photo appealing is the palm tree leaves which cover the sunset but leave enough room for its beautiful colours to be seen.
4. If I were to take this photo again I would try and get a shot from farther away or closer up so the palm trees are not in the shot.
Stopped by Value Village today to find some pants for my son who keeps blowing his knees with tips, years, and holes. Not only found some pants for him but some shorts, long sleeve tees, and a hoodie. And this mug for 49 cents. I already have a lot of mugs but HELLO, it's large, has red accents, and it's 49 cents! Then to top things off, the cashier gave me an extra 30% off my purchases even though my stamp card wasn't full! Thank you thrifting gods for a good haul after a very dry thrifting spell and especially to you, kind lady. You made my day with your small gesture and saved me $15 as well. Now if only garage sale season would start in the next few weeks....211:365

Jubilación Innovación y/o Emprendimiento
Visibilidad en buscadores Google Yahoo Bing, Etc.
Introducción
En estos tiempos, económicamente complicado para miles de personas de nuestra
clase media chilena, los invito a innovar con un sitio Web propio para promocionar
su actividad y aumentar sus ingresos.
Para hacerse un sitio Web recomiendo hacerlo en Joombla es que un sistema autoadministrable
de contenidos código abierto sin costos, busque en Google ¿Que es Joomla? tiene
varias ventajas que se pueden verlas en YouTube.
Si tiene tiempo para ver tutoriales en Youtube, puede aprender a manejar el
Joombla y construirse un sitio Web usted mismo, si no, le puedo recomendar
un web máster que le puede hacer un sitio Web en Joombla a un precio a su alcance.
Lo más importante es que poseo los conocimientos técnicos, años de experiencia
para posicionar sitios en los primeros lugares en Google, Yahoo, Bing, Etc.,
como ejemplo si busca por asesor previsional o publicidad web, encontrará mis
dos sitios en Google de Chile al tiro.
Una empresa de publicidad por Internet se podría componer de dos socios, una
secretaria y un técnico para posicionar sitios web. En cambio, el acuerdo comercial
y el trabajo de posicionamiento lo hago yo personalmente.
Lo que sugiero es una ayuda mutua, mediante un canje de acuerdo a lo indicado
en mi sitio de publicidad web, para conseguir 1er lugar o 1ra página Google
Chile en forma permanente y sin costos en comparación al pago por clic
Si no hacemos canje, podremos llegar a un acuerdo de precio anual a su alcance.
Cordiales saludos,
Luis Fernando Correa

For a photo walk along the Rhône banks, Lyon, France, I took again my Praktica IV camera but equipped this time with a Helios-44M lens :2 f=58mm, the normal lens of my Zenit 122 camera.
With the Helios-44M-6 lens, the diaphragm is stopped down automatically to the selected aperture value by pressing the shutter release but there is no auto/manual selection possible from the lens. For all the views the lens was equipped with a yellow screw-on 52mm filter assuming a coefficient of x2. The lens was also equipped with generic modern cylindric shade hood.
The Praktica camera was loaded with a 36-exposure Ilford HP5+ and exposed for 200 ISO instead of 400 to compensate the yellow filter absorption. Expositions were determined using a Minolta Autometer III with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas. The weather was relatively cloudy (13h30-16h30) giving typical exposures of 1/100s at f/8.
February 6, 2024
69002 Lyon
France
After exposure, the film was processed using Adox Adonal (= Agfa Rodinal) developer at dilution 1+25, 20°C for 6min.
The film was then digitized using a Sony A7 body adapted to a Minolta Auto Bellows III and a Minolta Slide Duplicator using a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5 at a reproduction ratio of 1:1. The reproduced RAW files obtained were processed in LR prior the the final JPEG editions.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printing framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg accompanied by some documentary smartphone Vivio Y76 color pictures.
--------------------------------------
About the camera :
I got the camera body Praktica IV and a set of related KDH Leipzig accessories from an eBay seller near Paris, France.. The whole arrived to me on January, 31, 2024, in Lyon, France.
The Praktica IV was designed by the prestigious KW (Kamera Werk Niedersedlitz) German company in Dresden on the basis of their previous Praktica FX SLR camera's. The camera was produced first under the KW name starting from June 1959 then within the Kombinat VEB Pentacon after the merge of the company in 1960.
166.800 Praktica IV and V (6 models) were produced until January 1966. Praktica IV essentially incorporates a condenser focusing screen plus a pentaprism. Due to the Praktica FX architecture the Pentaprism looks protruding from the camera body with an unusual style. It fits lenses with M42x1 mount and the mirror has no automatic return. The shutter is made of two horizontal curtains of rubberized fabric giving 1/500s to 1/2s plus B in two registers of slow speeds (1/2s to 1/10s) and high speeds (1/25s to 1/500s). The film is advanced coupled to the shutter cocking using either the right upper button or the rapid lever underneath the body.
The Praktica IV handles the "Auto" M42 lenses with the lever for automatic iris closing upon the release. Sequentially, when pressing the shutter release button, the diaphragm closes to the indicated value, the mirror is lift-off and finally the shutter is erased at the given value. If a non-auto (manual closing) M42 is used the pushing lever could be cancelled (declutched) moving a small red button to the right in the mirror chamber.
The camera camera came without lens but with a body cap and the original ever-ready leather bag with et "Ernermann tower" Pentacon logo. This model is likely the second Praktica IV essentially the same as the initial KW one with a different front plate. The camera was likely art of a collection and is completely preserved without use marks.
The KDH Leipzig (Kurt-Dieter Huffziger Foto- und Kinozubehör) accessories set included:
-A panoramic tripod head
-A set of three extension tubes M42x1)
- A big aluminum shade hood (screw-on 49mm) for wide-angle lens.
- A M42x1 metal body cap in its original box.
- An accessory shoe fitting the the Praktica IV eye piece.
-------------------------------------
About the lens :
The normal lens fitted on the camera using the M42 mount is the multi-coated version 6 of the Helios 44M manufactured at Юпитер, (Оптико-механический завод «Юпитер» , "Jupiter") Valday, Novgorod region. Helios-44 lens directly derived from the Carl Zeiss Jena Biotar lens 1:2 f=58mm.
It came with my Zenit-122 that was produced in 1994 by the Russian company KMZ (Красногорский механический завод, Krasnogorskiy Mechanicheskiy Zavod) located in the Moscow region. Zenit-122 were also manufactured by BelOMO factory. From 1990 to 2005, about 2 millions of Zenit-122 were overall produced. The camera is built on the tough previous Zenit chassis and uses the same curtain Leica-type shutter with no slow speeds. The body is cased with ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styren) thermoplastic. Zenit-122 is equipped with a two CdS cells for light metering (25-400 ISO) using a LED indicator in the viewfinder.
The global human insulin market was valued at USD 24,332.6 million in 2014 and was expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.4% from 2014 to 2020, to reach an estimated value of USD 49,197.3 million in 2020.

The loadstone of Ellen O’Hara’s presentation on Cockpit Arts as a unique craft-based incubator concerned value. This began with Ellen explaining her decision to leave the financial sector to work in the arts, owing to this career trajectory being more aligned with her personal values. Personal-professional alignment proved a leitmotif in Ellen’s talk, with her emphasizing the importance of individual makers understanding what motivates their practice. There may of course be many drivers for creative entrepreneurs. Money is only one of them and developing expertise en route to recognition typically takes priority.
Regardless of this hierarchy, evolving a plan for practice that syncs with a particular working style is key. Establishing this relationship is a point of departure for Cockpit’s business coaching, which for Ellen often involves understanding in detail how a practitioner thinks. As she explained, there are big differences between a lateral thinker and linear one. Does a practitioner begin with an idea and then proceed to execute it? Or do they start with a more general impulse and experiment en route to realising an outcome? The difference between these approaches will influence the kind of business plan that is best suited for their working style.
A related and fascinating aspect of Ellen’s presentation concerned value, specifically where the value of creative practice resides. The tendency to focus on the value of an outcome overshadows auxiliary value that accretes along the way. For example, one of the reasons why people are so attracted to handmade objects is that they're created by individuals who have the skills and vision to bring something unique into the world. Makers often take for granted their relationship with their technical expertise, their creative process and the products that they create. Consumers appreciate hearing about these things so as to better grasp the process involved in both the object’s and their maker’s becoming.
Tortie Hoare, whose presentation for the cycling tour features earlier in this album, commented on the value of sharing her process of producing leather-based designs in Ellen's session. As Tortie explained sends clients photographs that document the production of particular objects. Practical strategies like these can go a long way to resource in reifying the diverse values of a creative practice for both the practitioner and those encountering their work.

A couple of weeks ago I was reading the Temple of the Seven Golden Camels blog and he talked about the drawing concept of "Silhouette Value". The concept that a character's action should be recognizable from just their silhouette. I decided to set up some photos to compare different poses for "silhouette value."

We celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied and multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
