<strong><em>The Antarctic legacy of Sir Ernest Shackleton and Frank Hurley</em></strong><br />
<strong><em></em></strong><br />
I was unaware that this splendid exhibition was on until a friend mentioned it to me. It is closes on 3 June 2018 so get down to the Hull Maritime Museum (also known has the Town Dock's Museum), Queen Victoria Square, Hull, East Yorkshire. Admission is free. Australian born Photographer Frank Hurley was the expedition Photographer, and his photography in a very cold climate is exceptional using a number of different camera's (but mainly a large format plate glass camera).<br />
<br />
The fact that he took and developed all his own work in a cold room on the 'Endurance' makes his photography the more remarkable, along with the text and the fact that 6 of the crew have local connections make this exhibition a must see for anyone who is a Photographer and/or who loves photography.<br />
<br />
The story of this expedition has rightly gone down in folklore and history. Frank Hurley's photography contributes massively to this story.<br />
<br />
After the expedition Hurley photographed Australian troops on the Western Front.<br />

LAS VEGAS<br />
<br />
My sincere sympathy to all the victims, their families, friends and colleagues in the Las Vegas mass shooting.<br />
<br />
I spent 6 weeks in America with the British Army back in 1985, we were based at Fort Lewis in Washington State. I was looked after by members of the Chino Police department (brilliant individuals). I had gone to visit my relative who lived in Chino at that time. He now lives in San Bernadino.<br />
<br />
There are areas, neighbour hoods (Chino and Riverside spring to mind) that I know of mentioned in the long list of deceased and injured.<br />
<br />
At times like these words seem so weak. You are in my thoughts and prayers.<br />

This is a very emotive, moving and sad event, but it is original and a fitting tribute to remember our fallen from this terrible battle/campaign. Who ever thought of this should receive the highest praise and credit, an exceptional re-enactment and piece of public art and theatre.</div>

Three monochrome photographic prints from the wonderful Fountains Abbey. A fitting subject to remember the true cost of war on the eve of the worst battle of WWI (some 100 years later) and the bloodiest day in the British Army's history.<br />

<br />
This is one of my own favourite photographic prints. It's of a burnt out car's door, which over a short period of time due to the fire, salt water and weather has weathered in this majestic pattern. The resulting photographic print was then sepia and selenium toned which has increased the tonal depth and added to the print.<br />
<br />
This particular print was not done by me. It's from a set of prints that Photo Box did.<br />

Dots, to be more precise - 'black dot's.' Are they on the horizon, in the sky or what? The answer is quiet simple really (I will leave it at that).<br />

The detail in this monochrome photographic print is particularly good, showing the texture in the corrugated steel (the rust) and the old wooden window frame.<br />
<br />
These buildings are becoming more and more rare. They originate from the First World War, where they were extensively used. Designed by an Officer of the Royal Engineer's, Nissen was his surname.<br />

When first looking at this colour photographic print I thought it's either me or the film at fault? It turns out that it was the film. I was given forty rolls of Kodak colour negative film (well past their best by date) by someone and this was the first roll that I took and had developed.<br />
<br />
Saying that sometimes mistake's can turn out to be fine. I think the above image could be viewed has a painting, due to the film having this under-exposed and misty type effect. And no I did not use any filters on my camera lens (apart from the usual skylight filter to protect the lens).<br />

This series of colour photographic prints is from a visit to the American Air Museum at Duxford. The aircraft depicted is an American WWII B-24 Liberator. The Imperial War Museum is also located here, as well has the Royal Anglian Regiment Museum (many moons ago I served in the 2nd Battalion of this Regiment).<br />
<br />
Well worth a visit and a day out, especially in the summer has they have regular air shows, with vintage and WWII aircraft.<br />
