Clark-Roller House 5
image post
Image by Universal Pops
Although posting photos, most from some time ago, I’m virtually inactive on Flickr. Any views (and comments) are most appreciated. Thank you.

A series of 5 images--The Clark-Roller House (built by John Clark) is in Halifax County, the core of the structure dating from before 1820 with later additions in the 1850s. The Roller family has occupied the dwelling for much of the 20th century. The features of the house seem to show additions at various stages. A first view of the front façade gives the impression of symmetry; however, the wing on the right side of the entrance is more recessed than that of the left. In addition, the fenestration is different—both sash but to the left the lights are 9/9 and to the right 6/6. The front gable is Gothic Revival with a steeply pitched roof; narrow windows above the porch are more Italianate in their narrowness, showing the same diamond glass pattern found in the sidelights to the entrance. The pattern continues in the transom above the door but with a horizontal orientation. Square posts support the entry porch roof. Three gables intersect near the front of the house, but the gables to either side of the front gable are of different heights. The same decorative pattern is present in all gables—front, side and rear. Bracketing is uniform in the eaves except at the rear where the cornice contains dentil (supposedly double dentil though I was unable to get a look). The rear view shows a simple 2-story gable construction with massive chimneys. This structure is not listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

1952 Mercedes W194 (06)

Some cool image post images:


1952 Mercedes W194 (06)
image post
Image by Georg Schwalbach (GS1311)
The Mercedes-Benz 300SL was introduced in 1954 as a two-seat, closed sports car with distinctive gull-wing doors. Later it was offered as an open roadster. It was the fastest production car of its day.

Built by Daimler-Benz AG and internally numbered W198, the fuel-injected road version was based (somewhat loosely) on the company's highly successful competition-only sports car of 1952, the somewhat less powerful carbureted Mercedes-Benz 300SL (W194).

The road model was suggested by Max Hoffman. Being intended for customers in the booming post-war American market it was introduced at the 1954 New York Auto Show, unlike previous models introduced at either the Frankfurt or Geneva shows. In Mercedes-Benz fashion, the "300" referred to the engine's three litre cylinder displacement. The "SL" stood for "Sport Leicht" (Sport Light).

The 300SL was best known for both its distinctive gull wing doors and being the first-ever four-stroke car equipped with a gasoline direct injection. The gull wing version was available from March 1955 to 1957. Production of the roadster ended in 1963 with the introduction of the 230SL.

In 1952, the original 300SL (model Mercedes-Benz W194) scored overall wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, in Bern-Bremgarten, in the sportscar race of the Eifelrennen at the Nürburgring, and in Mexico's Carrera Panamericana. It also managed second and fourth places at its first outing, the Mille Miglia in 1952.

These successes, especially those on the high speed open road races, were rather surprising as the engine then was fitted only with carburetors, producing 175 hp (130 kW), which was not only less than the competing cars by Ferrari and Jaguar, but also less than the road car of 1954. Low weight and low aerodynamic drag made the 300SL fast enough to be competitive in endurance races.

Der Mercedes-Benz W 194 ist ein nur im Jahre 1952 unter der Bezeichnung Mercedes 300 SL eingesetzter Rennwagen von Mercedes-Benz.

Wie der ab 1954 verkaufte Straßenwagen gleichen Namens (aber mit der Typbezeichnung Mercedes-Benz W 198) wurde er sowohl als Coupé mit Flügeltüren als auch als Roadster gebaut und eingesetzt.

Im Jahre 1951, nachdem Testrennen mit den 12 Jahre alten Vorkriegsmodellen in Südamerika deren Untauglichkeit für aktuelle Wettbewerbe ergab, fiel bei der Daimler-Benz AG die Entscheidung, 1952 zwar noch nicht wieder beim Grand Prix (nun Formel 1 bezeichnet) anzutreten, aber zumindest an wichtigen Sportwagenrennen teilzunehmen, und hierfür einen Rennsportwagen zu bauen der den Namen „300 Sport Leicht“ erhielt. Dazu wurde der vorhandene Antriebsstrang der Limousine 300 (Adenauer) weiterentwickelt und in eine komplett neue Karosserie eingebaut.

1952 nahm das Fahrzeug an wichtigen Sportwagenrennen des Jahres teil.

Erstmals hatten die neuen SL bei der Mille Miglia Anfang Mai Geschwindigkeit und Zuverlässigkeit gezeigt und in diesem Langstreckenrennen einen zweiten und vierten Platz erzielt.

Beim Preis von Bern in Bremgarten gelang ein Dreifachsieg. Das 24-Stunden-Rennen von Le Mans beendete der Rennsportwagen unerwartet mit einem Doppelsieg. Die Sieger hießen Hermann Lang und Fritz Rieß mit einem Gesamtdurchschnitt von 155,575 km/h, ein neuer Rekord in der Le-Mans-Historie. Zweite waren Theo Helfrich und Helmut Niedermayr. Ein Rennen beim Eifelrennen am Nürburgring endete ebenfalls mit einem Dreifacherfolg. Am Jahresende, bei der Carrera Panamericana in Mexiko, siegte der 300 SL erneut unerwartet. Damit knüpfte Mercedes-Benz an die großen Erfolge im Rennsport vor dem Zweiten Weltkrieg an.

I've been selfish with my time.
I've posted less here than I've intended to thus far. I am deeply immersed in work and working far too many hours to keep daily or even bi-weekly posts coming. This is no complaint - busy hands are happy hands, and busy mine have been. That being said, I have also been jealously guarding a series of images of which I am particularly fond. You'll not see all of these today, or even this month. I find myself hoarding and guarding images for no particular reason but that I feel that they deserve to mature on my hard disk until either I've fulfilled my own selfish need to keep them hidden or until I know there is a surge of future coveted imagery behind, ready to wash these images onto the blog.
The forest floor.
When I was young, my father had a friend who lived on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan, nearby but not within the Saugatuck area. His backyard was a young forest that covered a gully formed by a creek. The creek eventually emptied into the lake and we often found its end by walking down to the white sand beach. The forest floor is still fresh in my mind. The banks of the creek were sandy, but the floor elsewhere was slippery and treacherous with wet-rotted and toadstool-covered deadfall after a rain, as soft as down with the fires of deciduous plumage in the fall and verdant with small flowers and clover in the summer. There was a tree swing near the water and I can still remember building a small fire to relax and enjoy the October chill with my family. I tugged at my father's sleeve and asked kindly enough until he let me head down the gully with his Nikon F3, his 28mm lens and a roll of slide film to try and record the birches and the forest floor on emulsion. I wanted the camera to see it, to feel it the way I did. I lost the rewind lever using the rope pull to regain the trail along a steep and frost-covered slope, spent a while searching for it and resigned myself to the trouble of having the poor fortune of losing a piece of the camera on my first trip out. Nearly twenty years later, on the road through Redwoods National Park, towards a point named Klamath we stopped the car and I couldn't help but make a photograph of a vast, woven carpet of clover - a tapestry of leaf and flower that put the best woolen works of the great near Eastern rug-makers to shame. I didn't lose the rewind lever this time (in fact this camera doesn't even have such a thing), but neither did I recapture that fungus-padded birch forest floor. Maybe our best memories are the ones without pictorial illustration.

I still feel that pull to make images that somehow connect with the way I see and feel spaces. I still feel the pull to make images of natural scenery or wild animals. I suspect that this desire is seen in some circles as shallow or unartistic. I know, however, that I am not alone and that the use of natural symbols is not merely derived of a meaningless aesthetic or the result of some kind of post-modern, post-industrial, nature-loving guilt trip. Photography has always held my interest because I want to be immersed in beautiful natural spaces. My connection with my own images and with others' photographs comes from the same germ as the thrill of witnessing a beautiful landscape or enjoying a few moments or hours of solitude on a trail. There are many natural symbols whose meanings, though lost to our modern lifestyles, still impede upon some subconscious and base level of ourselves - shouting their meaning through a gulf of time turned to forgetfulness. Our nature-loving may be like laughter - without it the world would hurt too much to bear.

I've already posted a few photos of the fabulous Hearst Castle indoor pool. This is the one that it is nearby, just outdoors. The thing is enormous and perfect.

I wonder if it ever gets used. So sad. Maybe they put on little pool parties here and there for the elite. Or maybe rappers rent it out and bring in a bunch of rap-video-girls to gyrate around the edges. I don't know.

1943 Volkswagen Typ 60 (02)

1943 Volkswagen Typ 60 (02)
image post
Image by Georg Schwalbach (GS1311)
The Volkswagen Type 1 is an economy car produced by the German auto maker Volkswagen (VW) from 1938 until 2003. It used an air cooled rear engined rear wheel drive RR layout.

In the 1950s it was more comfortable and powerful than most European small cars, having been designed for sustained high speed on the Autobahn, and ultimately became the longest-running and most-produced automobile of a single design. It remained a top seller in the US, even as rear-wheel drive conventional subcompacts were refined, and eventually replaced by front-wheel drive models. Its success owed much to its extremely high build quality, and innovative and eye catching advertising. The Beetle car was the benchmark for both generations of American compact cars such as the Chevrolet Corvair, and subcompact cars such as the Chevrolet Vega and Ford Pinto. It was a German equivalent and counterpart to the Morris Minor, Renault 4CV, Citroen 2CV, Fiat 600, Saab 92, and Volvo PV444 immediate post war European economy cars. The 1959 Austin Mini that pioneered the use of the transverse front wheel drive FF layout, was the beginning of a switch to front wheel drive by European manufacturers in the 1960s and 1970s, Volkswagen were among the last to change with the Golf, after nearly going bankrupt. The Beetle was thirteen feet long and the Mini was only ten feet, but they had similar interior space.

The car was originally known as Käfer, the German word for "beetle", from which the popular English nickname originates. It was not until August 1967 that the Volkswagen corporation itself began using the name Beetle in marketing materials in the US. In Britain, VW never used the name Beetle officially. It had only been known as either the "Type I" or as the 1100, 1200, 1300, 1500, or 1600 which had been the names under which the vehicle was marketed in Europe; the numbers denoted the vehicle's approximate engine size in cubic centimetres. In 1998, many years after the original model had been dropped from the lineup in most of the world (production continued in Mexico until discontinued, officially on 9 July 2003), VW introduced the "New Beetle" (built on a Volkswagen Golf Mk4 platform) which bore a cosmetic resemblance to the original.

Der VW Käfer ist ein von 1938 bis 2003 von der heutigen Volkswagen AG produziertes Automodell und war bis Juni 2002 mit über 21,5 Millionen Exemplaren das meistverkaufte Automobil der Welt, bis er diesen Titel an seinen Nachfolger, den VW Golf, weitergab.

Die Ursprünge des VW Käfer gehen auf staatliche Bestrebungen des nationalsozialistischen Deutschland zur Schaffung eines für breite Bevölkerungsschichten erschwinglichen „Volkswagens", seinerzeit KdF-Wagen genannt, zurück. Großen Anteil an der Entwicklung hatte Ferdinand Porsche, der allgemein als Schöpfer des Käfers bezeichnet wird. Die Idee eines „Volkswagens“ ist in ihren Grundzügen aber älter als seine Entwicklung zur NS-Zeit.

Der KdF-Wagen wurde vor dem Krieg nicht mehr in Serie produziert, weil das im Mai 1938 gegründete Volkswagenwerk bei Fallersleben (heute ein Stadtteil Wolfsburgs) noch nicht fertig war. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg wurden dort Militärfahrzeuge und andere Rüstungsgüter hergestellt, sodass die serienmäßige Produktion des dann Volkswagen genannten Wagens erst im Sommer 1945 beginnen konnte. Bis zum Jahresende 1945 wurden 1785 Wagen hergestellt und an die Besatzungsmächte sowie an die Deutsche Post geliefert. Ab 1946 konnte der VW mit Bezugsschein zum Preis von 5000 Reichsmark auch privat gekauft werden.
