How many sales of this design – 1 sale so far :) / Pelican Love is from the ‘Beach Series’ and ‘Friends Series’ of original paintings by Karin Taylor. / It was created using ink and pastel on pastel paper. There is a beautiful story about the love that pelicans have for their babies, I thought I’d share it with you Reference taken from the Wikepedia Encyclopedia (please forgive the length of this, but it is SO interesting, thought I may as well share the whole thing !) In medieval Europe, the pelican was thought to be particularly attentive to her young, to the point of providing her own blood when no other food was available. As a result, the pelican became a symbol of the Passion of Jesus and of the Eucharist. It also became a symbol in bestiaries for self-sacrifice, and was used in heraldry (“a pelican in her piety” or “a pelican vulning (wounding) herself”). Another version of this is that the pelican used to kill its young and then resurrect them with its blood, this being analogous to the sacrifice of Jesus. Thus the symbol of the Irish Blood Transfusion Service (IBTS) is a pelican, and for most of its existence the headquarters of the service was located at Pelican House in Dublin, Ireland. For example, the emblems of both Corpus Christi College, Cambridge and Corpus Christi College, Oxford are pelicans, showing its use as a medieval Christian symbol (‘Corpus Christi’ means ‘body of Christ’). Likewise a folktale from India says that a pelican killed her young by rough treatment but was then so contrite that she resurrected them with her own blood.[1] These legends may have arisen because the pelican used to suffer from a disease that left a red mark on its chest[citation needed]. Alternatively it may be that pelicans look as if they are stabbing themselves as they often press their bill into their chest to fully empty their pouch. Yet other possibilities are that they often rest their bills on their breasts, and that the Dalmatian Pelican has a blood-red pouch in the early breeding season.[1]

The second Nikon I owned with a trusty roll of Tri-X that I always used when shooting B/W. In 1971, much of the work with this camera went to The Evening Argus, the daily regional paper of Sussex, England. I used to shoot “space fillers” – anything of interest with a bit of a story summed up in a 50 word caption which I also wrote. The film was stuffed into a special orange ‘Press’ envelope and put on the next train to Brighton after I phoned the picture editor. I’ve still got quite a few of the old press cuttings but unfortunately none of the negatives. Technical Details: Camera: Nikon D3 / Lens: Nikkor 85mm PC f/2.8D / ISO: 200 / Exposure: 1/250 sec at f/43 / Flash: Nikon SB800, SB-R200×2 / Flash Mode: TTL / Post Processing: Lightroom 2, Photoshop CS3 Main flash through opaque perspex sheet, and the other two either side of a Dome Studio Light Tent. © 2008 John Hooton Photography
my late sister the legendary punk poet and singer with the Real Fucking Idiots
another in this small series of ancient images of my late sister punk poet and singer/songwriter with the band The Real Fucking Idiots and I am still in awe over the ‘do’...... my own hair is just as thick but much curlier so this is not a hairstyle that I could ever contemplate…..
a longer shot of this punk goddess in the middle of an installation/exhibition by the artist Michael Hill at a place called Art Unit in Alexandria….. this was taken in the summer of 1983. Have you ever wondered how hard it must be to be a punk in the searing Sydney summer heat….. the resources needed to keep the ‘do’ looking swell….. just a thought….
Foo-dogs are guardians often found outside temples in China and Japan. / The one on the left is female, the one on the right is male.
I know it is plain without a background, but this was my take on a Lillend. This is atually a few years old. The picture was sketched with a plain old mechanical pencil, and then digitally coloured in Corel Photopaint 7.0
My Nikon F bought in 1964 with a 105mm f/2.8 lens. I could only afford one lens and the 105mm was my choice as it was great for beauty head shots. Alongside it is the D3 that I purchased in 2008. It is also sporting a 105mm focal length lens. This time a VR macro. Who would have guessed in 1964 that one day there would be no more film. We would be shooting using a bit of plastic that held hundreds of exposures in it’s own memory on a camera that had it’s own computer built in.. Take that man to the funny farm. 105mm is still my favourite focal length for head shots after 44 years, so at least some things never change.
