Cool 1936 Ford at Rickshaws Hotrod Show @ Newcastle NSW.
36 Ford Roadster.
Just happened to drive by this on our way to a local lake. Stopped and talked with the owner. He has had this car since he was a teenager and it is beautifully restored with some more modern devices.
This deHavilland Hornet Moth was built in 1936 and is still flying today. / I thought I would treat it to a sepia tone and some added grain to emulate a photo from its heyday.
Oil Portrait of Rudyard Kipling, Writer. I’ve loved his exploring heart, his gift for imagery and lyrical writing, his storytelling that pulled you in to dust and sweat, wild animals, and his being so moved by foreign ports, land, & people, since my childhood. Oh Rudyard Kipling!! The places you’ve taken me!!. / Born in Bombay- live-wire mother and sculptor father who met in Rudyard Lake and so named their firstborn. Aunts married famous painters; cousin Stanley Balldwin was 3 times PM pre-WW I. Nobel Prize – Literature 1907, still youngest ever & first English language winner; rejected a knighthood. / This kind of invitation to fantastic adventure in his tribute to Bombay, and it’s “strong light and darkness”: Mother of Cities to me, For I was born in her gate, Between the palms and the sea, Where the world-end steamers wait. / was surpassed by his more famous and endlessly exquisite: / ‘On the road to Mandalay, Where the flyin’- fishes play, / An’ the dawn comes up like thunder outer China ‘crost the Bay!” / At 16, unqualified to pursue academia, shipped to Pakistan to assist the editor of the local rag, Civil & Military Gazette, which he called his most true love. Thank God, they asked him to contribute short stories. Rudyard Kipling was later called the first modern science fiction writer. He left at 24 for Hong Kong, Japan, San Francisco, sending stories home from dozens of states, crossed Canada, met Mark Twain in NY. 8 months later, Kipling moved to Liverpool, got famous in London. In 1891, at 25, he headed for South Africa, Australia, New Zealand; married Carrie Balestier, moved to Vermont. 5 years later moved to Torquay on Devon’s coast. The family regularly trekked to South Africa. Dozens of places in Canada, the UK, and USA are named for him. / His beautiful poem,” If-” written in 1895 remains superb advice for growing up: / “If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you, If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you…. Yours is the Earth and everything that’s in it…” The only spoken words at Ayn Rand’s funeral; runs like a river for over a 100 years through songs, plays, movies (The Man Who Would Be King), and rock’n’roll. Like other Kipling stories, immortalized, complained about, his fanciful combination of delight and terror keeps his memory sharp. Rudyard Kipling was a vociferous taker-in of all the world he could set his eyes on, and then who wrote about beautifully for the rest of us, so we might see it too. / ABOUT THE PAINTING: Again reaching into the time and presence of the subject, and one that startled me! I couldn’t get him to hold still! His hands moved, his head turned, he sat, stood, he was all motion. It was amazing. Then he settled down a bit. I turned his profile from the reference photograph I used to a 3/4 face, and because he was a writer wanted to include his hand (if I could get it to hold still). I am not a biographer-portraitist to trust, I invent as I go along. But all he means to me is in this: The sun of India is burning behind him, and the roads, waterways and purple skies drift from his blue eyes and crowded brain. He’s thinking of a story in my painting. I copied the style of the Medieval and Renaissance painters who place a raised finger on their saints, pointing to heaven, which is where, as far as I can tell, Kipling surely spent most of his life. / www.hawksperch.com

1936 Plymouth – 2008 West Coast Kustoms Outstanding Nostalgia Rod or Custom Award, Grand National Roadster show. This exceptional ride with many unusual features was an absolutely flawless example of using pieces from many different cars and trucks! You may recognize the dashboard or the headlights, knowing they are not original equipment. Obviously, painstaking long hours went into this build… Owner: Jimmy Ruiz, Riverside, CA
1936 DeSoto DeLuxe Airstream Taxicab. Distorted effects with a wide angle lens shot at close distance (the car, not the background).
Ok, this is a terrible scan, but what can I say, war is hell right? (currently deployed to Baghdad) The first photo, is from Budapest from my road trip this year with / Kamila. This one is pretty special. I got this camera because my / favorite photographer of all time, Robert Capa, used this type of / camera to capture a lot of his pictures from WWII including the / landing at Omaha beach. Originally, Andre Freidman, he was born and / raised in Budapest before he ventured off to the Spanish Civil war to / start his carreer. So I was very happy to have photographed part of / Budapest with this camera, just a lot of historical significance, / which i really appreciate being a military history major. I am having a lot of trouble getting consistant photos out of this camera, if anyone has any tips on using these cameras let me know because I am just using tial and error now and I am losing what I think to be a lot of good photos.

We started this group, named after the big weekend get together in LA, at Krispy Kreme Donuts in Mountain View. Lot’s of great cars. Saturday morning get together of everything from a Stanley Steamer to Dodge Viper.
The hood ornament of a beautifully restored 1936 Hudson reflected in the chrome grille. Featured in: Metallic Junktion, 12/09
Details of the large gears that form the working section of a 1936 Hay Baler. On display at a local car dealer, this piece of agricultural history was inviting to me.
I took this shot of a 1936 Ford Pickup Truck on June 19, 2009 while on a photo shoot outing with a friend in Cottage Grove, Oregon, with a Canon PowerShot SX10 IS. /
Showing off the 1936 Ford racing greyhound hood ornament. There was so much background noise at this car show and I wanted to get a nice shot of the hoodie, the V8 and Ford logos without all the clutter. The owner opened the hood to display the engine and I took advantage of using the hood as a backdrop. I think it framed the greyhound rather nicely, don’t you? I’m putting together my own photographic collection of brightwork, so this will fit in rather nicely.
