Download or read book Haunted Air written by Ossian Brown and published by National Geographic Books. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The roots of Hallowe'en lie in the ancient pre-Christian Celtic festival of Samhain, a feast to mark the death of the old year and the birth of the new. It was believed that on this night the veil separating the worlds of the living and the dead grew thin and ruptured, allowing spirits to pass through and walk unseen but not unheard amongst men. The advent of Christianity saw the pagan festival subsumed in All Souls' Day, when across Europe the dead were mourned and venerated. Children and the poor, often masked or in outlandish costume, wandered the night begging 'soul cakes' in exchange for prayers, and fires burned to keep malevolent phantoms at bay. From Europe, the haunted tradition would quickly take root and flourish in the fertile soil of the New World. Feeding hungrily on fresh lore, consuming half-remembered tales of its own shadowy origins and rituals, Hallowe'en was reborn in America. The pumpkin supplanted the carved turnip; costumes grew ever stranger, and celebrants both rural and urban seized gleefully on the festival's intoxicating, lawless spirit. For one wild night, the dead stared into the faces of the living and the living, ghoulishly masked and clad in tattered backwoods baroque, stared back. The photographs in Haunted Air provide an extraordinary glimpse into the traditions of this macabre festival from ages past, and form an important document of photographic history. These are the pictures of the dead: family portraits, mementos of the treasured, now unrecognisable, other. Torn from album pages, sold piecemeal for pennies and scattered, abandoned to melancholy chance and the hands of strangers.

Book Images of Conflict

  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2008-12-18
  • ISBN : 1443803146
  • Pages : 320 pages

Download or read book Images of Conflict written by Jean Bourgeois and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2008-12-18 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Striking aerial views of war, and of the scarred landscapes of its aftermath are the focus of this unique and multidisciplinary book. For the first time, the history, significance, and technology of military aerial photography are brought together and explored by military historians, archaeologists, and anthropologists. This new approach opens the door to a modern reassessment of military aerial imagery, reveals the concepts and philosophies that guided their production and interpretation, and illustrates the complex interaction between humans and technology in creating and understanding the landscapes of conflict.

Book Color Aerial Photography

Download or read book Color Aerial Photography written by Richard S. Driscoll and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shrubs such as antelope bitterbrush, big sagebrush, snowberry, and true mountainmohogany can be identified more consistently on large-scale (1:600-1:1,200) color infrared aerial photographs than on the same scale color aerial photographs. Indentification of relatively large forbs, including Fremont geranium and orange sneezeweed, is also easier on large scale color infrared. Neither film type appeared to give improved information regarding site delineation on smaller scale photographs. Other features of the range environment, including rodent disturbances, can best be identified on color infrared at photo scales up to 1:2,400. All of this depends on obtaining photogrpaphs at the right time of year in respect to phenology of the vegetation.

Book Interpretation of Habitat Quality from Air Photos at Marbled Murrelet Nest Sites in Mussel Inlet on the British Columbia Central Coast

Download or read book Interpretation of Habitat Quality from Air Photos at Marbled Murrelet Nest Sites in Mussel Inlet on the British Columbia Central Coast written by Frances M. Louise Waterhouse and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We used newer, larger-scale 2007 colour air photos to interpret habitat attributes and classify habitat quality of 14 Marbled Murrelet (Brachyramphus marmoratus) nest sites identified in 1992 (n = 2) and 1999 (n = 12) in Mussel Inlet on the Central Coast of British Columbia. Mussel Inlet is a fjordland environment atypical of other areas for which the air photo interpretation classification has been tested using nest sites (i.e., Haida Gwaii, Vancouver Island, and south coastal British Columbia). Nesting habitat described by 3-ha plots centred on the nest site was characterized in Mussel Inlet as having complex canopies with large trees in mid to low meso slope positions, and as such is comparable to that reported elsewhere in British Columbia. However, comparisons of the nest plot habitat attributes to those at 27 random plots also suggested that interpretations of murrelet habitat selectivity for Mussel Inlet differed from other coastal areas due to differences in characteristics and availability of forest structures. Overall in Mussel Inlet, more nest plots were classed as lower quality (i.e., 50% Low and Very Low) on air photos compared to other British Columbian studies (i.e., ~14% Low and Very Low). Although selectivity testing based on air photo habitat class was inconclusive, particularly for the High and Very High quality habitats for which limited habitat was available (~1 % of the study area), a trend was indicated for higher proportional use of Moderate and Low habitats and lower proportional use of Very Low habitats. We discuss limitations of the samples used for this study and issues in interpretation, resolution, and scale in applying the air photo methods in topographically complex, fjordland landscapes such as Mussel Inlet. Given these limitations and issues, we recommend use of aerial survey methods to confirm occurrence of nest platforms.

Book Small Format Aerial Photography

Download or read book Small Format Aerial Photography written by James S. Aber and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2010-05-28 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the need for geographical data rapidly expands in the 21st century, so too do applications of small-format aerial photography for a wide range of scientific, commercial and governmental purposes. Small-format Aerial Photography (SFAP) presents basic and advanced principles and techniques with an emphasis on digital cameras. Unmanned platforms are described in considerable detail, including kites, helium and hot-air blimps, model airplanes, and paragliders. Several case studies, primarily drawn from the geosciences, are presented to demonstrate how SFAP is actually used in various applications. Many of these integrate SFAP with ground-based investigations as well as conventional large-format aerial photography, satellite imagery, and other kinds of geographic information. Full-color photographs throughout Case studies from around the globe Techniques presented allow for image resolution impossible to match via traditional aerial photography or satellite datasets Glossary clarifies key terms

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining daring aerial photography with the restricted airspace over Paris provides both breathtaking and unparalleled views. From sunrise to sunset, Paris is one of the most photographed cities in the world. Shooting with the newest high-resolution medium-format professional cameras while leaning out of helicopters making steep turns with the door off, Milstein captures the highly detailed, iconic, straight-down images that set his work apart. Milstein's distinctive style--straight down--leads to fresh insights of the urban design of this great city. In a way that is impossible from street level, you can see the old neighborhoods of Montmartre and Montparnasse; iconic historical monuments like the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe or the Invalides; and modern Paris like La Défense or the new neighborhoods around the Bibliothèque Nationale. As a bonus, there is a portfolio of images of the gardens and buildings of Louis XIV's great palace, Versailles. Milstein brings his unique and unmatched aerial vistas of Paris to life--every angle, every moment, every season. This is sure to be treasured by tourists and Parisians alike.
