Re: OT: Famous Photographer's Gear for Sale on EBay

[Godfrey DiGiorgi]

Well, as I said, the Leicaflex SL first shipped in 1968, or five years after 
the assassination of JFK. So it was probably her personal camera while she was 
married to Aristotle Onassis. 

The article is written in a way that makes it easy to believe that this was one 
of the "other cameras" she used while she was a photographer for the newspaper…

It's not the camera she used as the "Inquiring Camera Girl."

They may be hoping people will assume it's the camera she used before
she married JFK, but they don't actually claim that.

The eBay page says the camera was manufactured between 1965 and 1968;
owned & used by Jacqueline Kennedy.

She probably bought it while she was "Jackie O".

Mildred went to bear heaven in 1993. I think that one is actually named
Smokey and may be one of Mildred's descendants.

Grandfather Mountain has a nice bear habitat, considered to be the best
in the world, with more of it located off stage than what you see
looking down over the fence.

The laptop is not going to be upgraded. Nvidia doesn't make a Windoze 10
driver for it & there's no way to change the video card.

I've still got one desktop to go.

I can mostly adapt, but there are certain features of the interface that
give me eye strain & headaches. I'm trying to find a way to change them

Re: I'l try to stay back in for a while.. but..

[ann sanfedele]

Free is better for sure.   Philadelphia is also free for us old folk 
within the city limits on regular transportation... and the commuter 
rail is deeply discounted.


My senior ride is normally $1.35 -- if I go somewhere and transfer to a 
different route within two hours that is free.. sometimes that 2 hours is
all I need - so not so bad.  The main thing is getting to and from the 
closest conveyances... and in really hot weather the subway platforms 
can be hell.


BTW -  I'm not doing the transcription to document form anymore!  In 
2010 I had a dictaphone - a real one - and several people doing it for 
me for barter...
The tape to Cd is easy... I was given a wonderful instrument for doing 
that..   I'm enjoying listening to the cd's.  I often just left the tape 
run when
I was driving and had the local radio station on - or had it in my 
pocket when I was in a diner or at an overlook and it picked up my chat 
with strangers - sometimes just for atmosphere, other times for helping 
remember directions...


I see you looked at the whole album - the disc was made where Chris was 
cremated - he lived for many years in San Francisco and that is where he 
was when he died... it appeared when the ashes were being spooned out of 
the silly box they were in.   I didn't title photos as it was mainly a 
gallery for those
who would know who they were looking at... there were several people he 
went to high school with, one who came from Montana - the guy playing the
Chris's guitar - they were in a band back in the 60's .  The stunning 
young lady in the straw hat is Nora's grandaughter who lives in the 
house now.. her
father is the oldest sibling - the guy in the straw hat  - The shot by 
the grave of two women and a man are surviving siblings.  Both women are 
very close

friends of mine.

Read about the original Gotham with interest!  Had NO idea ... Too bad 
it was former mayor Rudy G who had to be mentioned in a favorable light 
in the article :-(   thanks for sending the link.


Incidentally - I was in two non-member combined art and photo shows at 
the Salmagundi club which they seem to have done away with.  And
you probably know there is a TV show here now called Gotham - the son of 
a friend of mine is a cinematographer for the show and the shooters

collectively won an award recently

almost finished tape 20... time to go listen

Sorry to hear you suffer so much in the heat, it certainly isn't easy. It makes

the rest of the country you get it at 65, I think.

Thanks for the update, ann. 

Sorry to hear you suffer so much in the heat, it certainly isn't easy. It makes 
me angry on behalf of Americans that older people don't get free public 
transport, especially in a global city like NYC. In London you get it when 
you're 60, even if you're in full-time work. Only 10 months to go for me. In 
the rest of the country you get it at 65, I think.

Thanks for the update. My Brooklyn daughter has no a/c and won't let me buy her 
a window unit. Tough kid. I don't mind the heat, and I go out to shoot, garden 
and shop, but I stay cool at home-- 72 degrees.

I'l try to stay back in for a while.. but..

[ann sanfedele]

Long post... spilling my guts

The political stuff has me glued to the tube, ebay is really really slow 
and that is causing anxiety . Some sweet and sad memories have been 
occuring that are distracting and maybe not the very worst bu very 
stressful is the heatwave we have been having - Isimply have a very low 
tolerance for summer weather -
I can barely walk in temperatures as high as we have been havingthis 
year and have a hard enough time moving when it is merely 80°  let alone 
over 90° with high humidity for days and days.. .


My apartment is wonderfully airconditioned but not being able to walk 
more than a few steps outside without wiltingis torture. several things 
I'm doing to
help. I got a 30 day Metrocard that allows one to take as many trips as 
one wants for a fixed price.  I got it on July 12 and so far have taken 
about 35 rides
when I hit 42 I'll have spent the same amount as my normal senior rate 
and the rest of the time will be essentially free  but I had to put out 
$58 up front

to get the pass.

I have to walk at least one block to get to a bus stop , and I only go 
out when I can see that once side of thestreet is under full shade. I 
wear a cold cloth around my neck , douse my head underwater before going 
out and carry lots of ice water with me... and basically I'm so 
remarkably healthy compared to
most of my friends and others pushing 80 that I'm fortunate.. but the 
sun and heat turn me into an invalid rapidly.  Did I mention I HATE summer?


Another thing that has been keeping me away from you guys is a big 
project I'm almost finished with... transferring about 40 - 50 cassette 
recordings
from 90 minute cassettes to 80 minute CD's. These are tapes from the 2 
month trip across country just after 9/11 (the first month was planned 
before
that date and extended to make sure I didn't get back home until the 
dust settled more, literally). I still had a little bit of money left 
and also used the trip as a way to gather more ebay items, visit family, 
get notes for a book I was writing I've never finished.  The trip was 
amazing.. and afterI did a few tape to cd's I started listening to them 
again, and following my trip on google maps and such.  a number of years 
ago I had help transcribing most of the notes Iwas taking
as I went along , to documents but stopped before the last few days of 
the trip, as that was homeward bound and not as interesting.



The 2002 trip was yet to be listened to, except for a couple of tapes 
where I knew I wanted to review stuff... so I took that journey first, 
looking at the
photos I took, looking at the places on google, following my route... so 
that was and is both sweet and sad because I can't really do it 
anymore.  It did
make me every so grateful to Richard, who insisted I leared to drive in 
my 40's - a practical matter as he wsa 15 years older and knew he would 
probably reach the age when he couldn't drive himself - or shouldn't. 
Now I'm at that age... haven't driven in years  - but I did so love 
driving and driving alone across

the country..

Then there was the memorial service for a friend who was one of a family 
I had become a part of and it took placethat was on where his mother lived
and I had spent hours and hours over the years - since the mid 1960's 
and found I could not bear to be at once she was gone - that was in 2007...
I started my 2002 trip there, ather 80th birthday party , and had both 
begun and ended my 2001 trip there as well.  I'm really such a glass 
half full gal
that this stuff, mixed with financial anxiety and theugliness of the 
atmosphere these days, well - it made it difficult to chit-chat and 
critque...


ONe of the reasons I like facebook is thatmany of you who I know well, 
or fairly well are there too andone can just keep in touch, view photos,
make quick one-liners and like each ohters ideas with a click - not to 
mention playing Words with Friends with one of you :-) . I can understand
the reluctance to get on facebook, but it is no longer that thing for 
the kids- except when they are grandkids of grandmas and dads whoare there.


Today is one of the worst heat days, so I decided not to even go out . I 
have gotten those extra free listing days on ebay so I'm more enthused 
about listing stuff, the second convention has not yet started, I had 
some really yummy chinese dumpling yesterday - a good report from my eye 
doc on my glaucoma,
I'm down to 130 lbs, and Inspector Lewis is back on PBS this evening. 
(re-runs until August 7th, but hey, i'ts still Whatley and Fox) AND I'm 
almost finished

doing the tape to cd thing.

Oh yeah, after replace the fridge, the next thing to go was my flip 
phone... can't hear anyone very well on it and the ringtone is too 
soft... so I"m getting
a samsung galaxy t-379 which has a little keyboard, a larger screen, and 
a place for a micro sd...


On a photo note - Went to see The Diane Arbus exhibit at the new Met 
Breuer - terrific stuff.  I had also seen

This one is a bit risky, I think.

It is not sharp.
It is doubtful if there was a particular subject.
It is in "portrait" format but there is absolutely no portrait.
It is not shot with a "Pentax" camera or lens.

I submit it here only because I liked it.

I'm Following the Kawartha  butter tart tour on Facebook. Someone
commented on how good the tarts are in Little Britain and that their
1920 classic car club will be heading to the bakery Saturday around 11
on route to another event. I asked them politely what time they may be
there and if they are driving their cars, that i would love to
photograph the group when they got to the bakery. I got a nice reply
that they would love to have me there at the stop and take pictures.
Oh boy i'm so excited. Taking the K-5 and X30

Pretty much, it was up to the task.

This is a 35 exposure pixel shifted focus stack.
Technical: K1, DFA 100mm macro, f/5.6, exposures at 1/6 second, ISO 100.
My stack wasn't quite deep enough, there is a slight blurriness in the 
center of the image.

So it goes.

This image is tagged Adobe RGB, as regular RGB put the flower out of 
gamut and killed a lot of the tonal range. Make sure your browser is 
aware.

Re: OT - BBC iPlayer App in USA

Excellent!  Darrel and I found ourselves held up in a mall because of a nasty 
thunderstorm.  While at the mall, we downloaded the player on my iPhone 6, and 
started listening to stuff.  I’m listening to Arts Hour on World Service right 
now!  So jazzed to have this player!

We will definitely try these suggestions!

Cheers, Christine

Loads. Here are a few on radio 4:

The Long View - looking at history and it's effect to today's world
The Life Scientific - a physics professor interviewing other scientists
about their life in science
More or Less - looking at how statics are used (mostly abused actually) by
the press

They're also available as podcasts so you can listen at any time. Don't
know whether they're available as podcasts in USA though.

On tv, have a look at BBC four. Art, science and music in abundance.

Here's an article about the app:



Radio 4 is the non-music station, with great documentaries, comedy, talk
shows, and features.

'Desert Island Discs' is a brilliant 45 minute listen, once a week. A
guest gets to choose their favourite music that they would take with
them to a desert island for a life of solitude, while reminiscing about
how they came to like each piece. On air Sundays 10.15am GMT (we are
currently in British Summer Time - BST - so it's 11.15am currently) but
each episode available to listen retrospectively for (i think) a month.
Have a listen.

I'm not a huge Radio 4 listener but Alma also recommends:

'Last Word' - a weekly obituary programme (sounds grisly but actually
really good)

'Front Row' - arts magazine programme Mon-Fri

'In Our Time' - History / philosophy / ethics discussion prog

A lot of these progs have an international feel to them as many guests
are from Europe and North America.

There's nothing quite like a balmy afternoon in the sitting room
surrounded by bookshelves listening to Desert Island Discs ;-)

Enjoy!

Thanks for looking and commenting, and greetings from Elin too.

Alan; I don't think so. However, the flying club has regular training 
courses for microplane certification. That's been on my bucket list 
since 2004, and I blame the PDML. A whole bunch of non-US members went 
to GFM that year, and one of the talks was by Bill Fortney who had made 
a project of shooting USA's famous landscapes from a motorized 
hang-glider (trike microplane).
