There was a time when this Prinzflex was sold alongside a visually similar Zenit model that cost about 25% more.
Those in the know would buy the Prinzflex and peel off the label to reveal that it was the exact same Zenit model underneath!

THE LION AND ALBERT
by
Marriott Edgar
There's a famous seaside place called Blackpool,
That's noted for fresh-air and fun,
And Mr and Mrs Ramsbottom
Went there with young Albert, their son.
A grand little lad was their Albert
All dressed in his best; quite a swell
'E'd a stick with an 'orse's 'ead 'andle
The finest that Woolworth's could sell.
They didn't think much to the ocean
The waves, they was fiddlin' and small
There was no wrecks... nobody drownded
'Fact, nothing to laugh at, at all.
So, seeking for further amusement
They paid and went into the zoo
Where they'd lions and tigers and cam-els
And old ale and sandwiches too.
There were one great big lion called Wallace
His nose were all covered with scars
He lay in a som-no-lent posture
With the side of his face to the bars.
Now Albert had heard about lions
How they were ferocious and wild
And to see Wallace lying so peaceful
Well... it didn't seem right to the child.
So straight 'way the brave little feller
Not showing a morsel of fear
Took 'is stick with the'orse's 'ead 'andle
And pushed it in Wallace's ear!
You could see that the lion didn't like it
For giving a kind of a roll
He pulled Albert inside the cage with 'im
And swallowed the little lad... whole!
Then Pa, who had seen the occurrence
And didn't know what to do next
Said, "Mother! Yon lions 'et Albert"
And Mother said "Eeh, I am vexed!"
So Mr and Mrs Ramsbottom
Quite rightly, when all's said and done
Complained to the Animal Keeper
That the lion had eaten their son.
The keeper was quite nice about it
He said, "What a nasty mishap
Are you sure that it's your lad he's eaten?"
Pa said, "Am I sure? There's his cap!"
So the manager had to be sent for
He came and he said, "What's to do?"
Pa said, "Yon lion's 'eaten our Albert
And 'im in his Sunday clothes, too."
Then Mother said, "Right's right, young feller
I think it's a shame and a sin
For a lion to go and eat Albert
And after we've paid to come in!"
The manager wanted no trouble
He took out his purse right away
And said, "How much to settle the matter?"
And Pa said "What do you usually pay?"
But Mother had turned a bit awkward
When she thought where her Albert had gone
She said, "No! someone's got to be summonsed"
So that were decided upon.
Round they went to the Police Station
In front of a Magistrate chap
They told 'im what happened to Albert
And proved it by showing his cap.
The Magistrate gave his o-pinion
That no-one was really to blame
He said that he hoped the Ramsbottoms
Would have further sons to their name.
At that Mother got proper blazing
"And thank you, sir, kindly," said she
"What waste all our lives raising children
To feed ruddy lions? Not me!"
The Drums of Africa is a visually expressed personal guidance system. Our ancestors have documented the lessons of life into profound proverbs that can be easily remembered and referred to in our approach to everyday life. The series
displays these proverbs as typographic compositions combined with tribal forms found in South Africa’s folk
arts and crafts. In fact, symbolic elements from the intricate beadwork of the Bantu-speaking tribes, the refined basketry of the Zulu, and the highly coloured, bold, geometric forms of the Ndebele, ordain the fragile hand-drawn Helvetica typeface.
The result is a combination of contemporary type,
decorated with traditional silhouettes. Upholding the lessons and motivations of African culture, the compositions serve as daily affirmations and motivations.
The original oil paintings are on display at Kozi’s : Meet ’n Eat, an African inspired restaurant in Athens, Greece. A limited edition of signed prints have been created to accompany the work and are also available online at www.dimitratzanos.com

Not as visually impressive as Stonehenge, Castlerigg Stone Circle is older by perhaps a couple hundred years. Like Stonehenge, its original purpose remains unknown. Speculation includes a trading post, a meeting place, or perhaps astronomy related.
Reaching the circle is relatively easy as it's a short distance away from the town of Keswick.

Visually a bowl barrow, but potentially a bell barrow, with an infilled ditch. The main tumulus has the appearance of a 'U' due to historical interference including a 'dig' by Greville Chester in 1850. This is one of 10,000 surviving examples of bowl barrows - mostly in lowland Britain. Many more have been destroyed by farming (source: historicengland.org.uk).
Date: 4400-3500 ybp (Another paper cites barrows in this heaths as middle Bronze Age 3200-3000 BC).
15m apparent diameter.
20m diameter with expected hidden ditch.
1.4m high
2 types of pottery urn were found within, each with cremated remnants. A third broken urn was also found.
Mesolithic stone tools have been found on the general heathland. Neolithic stone tools and pieces of pottery have also been found at different times and on different sites. Many are now at the Norwich museum.
It started to snow a speckled ice during this photograph - nothing to see, but a sizzling pin-tap on the dry vegetation.
This was the second homepage comp for a hosting company called Hostcube. Opposite of the first version, I wanted to create a lighter, and a bit more fun look with this design. This is a good comparison on how the information architecture can drive 2 completely different interface designs.
Once again, I've come up with a different logo concept here, and dissected it to visually represent some service-related information under the "What is a VPS?" section. I have also used the same design element to showcase 4 different types of hosting packages. You may see the example on their website by clicking here.

Remember our visually-impaired kittens Ziff & Zaff? Meet their mom, Tina! She was rounded up by the tireless @sassee_badass_tnr who got her spayed, vaccinated and tested. When she realized Tina was friendly we moved her into our bathroom for safekeeping. She enjoys the elegance of our scalloped cultured marble sink (ie resin plastic) but would love a full-featured home even better! She's about 1 year old, small and sweet and very appreciative of chin skritches! Let us know if you're interested in giving her a new life. Everything plus the kitchen sink! #sinkcat #catsofbrownsville #adoptthiscat #tabbycat #streetcatnomore via Instagram instagr.am/p/CH3C5LHJ2Dc/
A visually stunning decorative map of Asia dating to 1852, by French map publisher Victor Levasseur. Covers the entire continent of Asia as well as parts adjacent parts Europe and Africa. Shows the Chinese Empire including Tibet and Mongolia. In Southeast Asia the Kingdoms of Annam, Chochine, Tonkin, Siam, and Burma are noted. Singapore is identified. Afghanistan is divided into the Kingdom of Kaboul, the Kingdom of Heral, and the Confederation of Belouchistan. Several islands in the Russian Arctic, including Nova Zembla and the New Siberia Islands are mapped vaguely. Curiously, Levasseur identifies one of the Japanese Kuril Islands as the land of Compagnie, a semi-mythical island sought by many early explorers of this region including Behring and Cook. By far this map's most striking feature is its elaborate allegorical border work. Levasseur composed this map for publication in his magnificent Atlas Nacionale de la France Illustree , one of the most decorative and beautifully produced atlases to appear in the 19th century. This particular map is surrounded on all sides with elaborate allegorical border work. Surrounding the map are ten medallions intended to represent life in Asia - though most of the these seem to focus on India, at the time the most known of Asian lands. To the left of the map proper is an enthroned woman, a most likely representation of Hesione, the wife of Prometheus, who is commonly associated with Asia. Curiously the figure holds a main de justice , a kind of scepter with a hand of benediction on top, it her right hand. The main de justice was initially a symbol of royal French power and in this case is a possible reference to the French claims to Indochina. Right of the map Adam and Eve are drawn relaxing in Eden, with a benevolent God figure looking on. As with most Levasseur depictions of god, his halo is pyramidal, a possibly Masonic reference. Levassuer's choice to add Adam and Eve to this map is a reference to mediaeval beliefs that Eden lay in the seas beyond Asia. Various exotic animals including a bear, a buffalo, an rhino, a tiger, and an crocodile appear at the bottom of the map. Publised by V. Levasseur in the 1852 edition of his Atlas National de la France Illustree.
The National Disabled Veterans TEE Tournament is the brainchild of several employees of the Iowa City VA Medical Center, along with two visually impaired Iowa Veterans. These visionaries created the TEE Tournament, an acronym standing for TRAINING, EXPOSURE and EXPERIENCE. In 2008, it became one of six VA national rehabilitation programs for Veterans. The event expanded to include not only blind Veterans, but amputees, wheelchairbound Veterans, and those with other life changing disabilities. It takes place each year in Iowa City.
Item on display at the “Multisensory Exhibition for the Blind and Visually Impaired Persons” that shows how visually impaired persons experience artwork via tactile plates and audio guides.
Curated by art historian and art educator Nataša Jovičić and the Modern Gallery, Zagreb, Croatia, the exhibition also sensitizes others to how people living with limited vision experience the world.
The exhibition was held on the sidelines of the Assemblies of WIPO Member States, which met from September 24 to October 2, 2018. WIPO co-organized the event with the government of Croatia.

Master Butcher
Visually impaired people playing with sighted feel that accessibility kits can be clunky, alter the gameplay for everyone and highlight their impairment. Social interaction between players is different with a visually impaired person present, and the players can tell the difference.
In ‘Master Butcher’ concealment, not seeing and vocalisation of one’s actions is part of the fun, not an action catering only for the visually impaired. All aspects of the game are either tactile or sound, the latter created by the players themselves, conversing. This enables an organic gaming environment despite any visual impairment, pushing towards a middle-ground instead of a false sense of equality.
‘Master Butcher’ is a game of deception where players assume the role of a butcher in medieval Britain, trying to source and sell meat for maximum profit at the farmer’s market. However, good meat is scarce and to make ends meet one might have to resort to selling bad meat instead. Every turn one of the players assumes the role of a customer at the market, buying meat and waging whether the butchers are telling the truth or not. Is the meat in the sales bag actually what they say it is? The butchers have apprentices that can run errands for them and play trickery on other butchers, thus sabotaging their pursuit of success.

not the most visually striking wallpaper but the most fitting i could find at deviant art
how i did it
all rainmeter, middle bar is elemental by tekno
the rest is from kaelris enigma which ive slightly modified
by changing the font to shadowless helvetica, making the menu bar and a copied menu bar with backgrounds removed and icons changed to the sienne set by visionsofart which i thought made a change from ecqlipse and imriks amana.
now that this is saved to rainthemes time to start on another. yay
thanks goes to taipan snake for giving me tips on the subtle enigma changes

There's nothing particularly visually interesting about this hotel in Philadelphia. However, I had a interesting stay here over a bitterly cold Presidents Day weekend in 1996.
A few months earlier I had great stay at a boutique hotel in San Francisco. It was the first time I had stayed at a boutique hotel so I made a reservation at this place, which I think was called the Walnut Street Hotel, because it advertised itself as a "boutique" hotel.
An indifferent college student checked me in at the front desk and I headed to my room. I dropped my luggage off and went out for dinner. When I came back I noticed that it was kind of chilly in the room. At the time I had a little thermometer zipper pull on my suitcase and it was not only kind of chilly it was all of 54 degrees.
I went downstairs to complain to the indifferent college student. He remained indifferent, saying the heat was not working and wouldn't be fixed until the next day.
He did give me an extra blanket though. The extra blanket was the most threadbare blanket I'd ever seen. I put it on my bed, along with all the towels and my parka and, wearing my clothes, I managed to sleep most of the night.
I spent the next day working at the convention center. When I got back to my room that evening it was no longer 54 degrees. Quite the opposite as it was 94 degrees! Opening a window made the room livable and I didn't dare complain for fear that they would turn the heat off.
In addition to the heat and cold problem there was the bathroom, specifically the toilet. The toilet was set off from the shower in this little alcove. The alcove was narrow and wedge-shaped. It was so narrow that my shoulders touched the walls when I sat down and to sit down I literally had to take my pants off beforehand and back into the space. TMI!
To end this story on a good note the hotel television had a Drexel University cable channel that was showing some pretty obscure stuff. One movie was "My New Advisor" by a guy named Jim Bihari, who was an Ohio State University student at the time. It is a feature length movie made for a few thousand dollars about a graduate student and his new advisor going to a conference, mainly by driving back and forth on rural central Ohio roads. It was really funny and had a great soundtrack. I haven't seen it since that stay but I just noticed the whole thing is on YouTube.

This is a long exposure motion blurred on purpose photograph that creates the feeling of movement within a still image.
The photo tries to represent the experience of motion itself.
It 'stretches the moment' both literally (in the camera shutter is held open) and visually (as the details of the subject blur out horizontally).
