Photo taken from aboard c.s. Cable Retriever, departing Subic Bay, Philippines - April, 2008 The following information on the motor yacht 'Sarsen' is an extract from: www.sarsen.com.au/ship_facts.html Sarsen was built in 1970 as a North Atlantic survey vessel. She was equipped with an ice-strengthened hull for this purpose. Sarsen underwent a major refurbishment in 1986, and again in 2006 where she was converted into an intimate charter vessel. The winches used for pulling the large fishing nets have been removed, the stern has been altered to incorporate a landing platform, a small swimming pool and large outdoor dinning area with BBQ facilities...

I'm not keen on skewed horizons and the tilt on the horizon in this certainly was not intentional. Anyway, I quite liked the picture, so I decided to post it anyway... Taken from aboard c.s. Cable Retriever, on passage to Batangas after repairing a submaine telecoms cable deep under the sea, somewhere near Taiwan. The mountains in the background are inshore from the coast of Zambales, Northern Luzon. At the time this photograph was taken, (April, 2008) the ship was somewhere in the vicinity of Cabangan and San Felipe, South of Iba in the province of Zambales. Somewhere amongst those lofty peaks are Mount Quimalogong and Mount Pundillo Ni Lima

Oil Painting: Course Of Drawing And Painting (Start to Learn) (Hardcover) by Josep Casals From the middle of the fifteenth century to the present oil painting has been the indisputable queen of painting techniques. In spite of the more recent advances in chemistry and all the novel products that these have generated, it never ceases to surprise how vivid the colors and textures of oil paintings can be. The medium also has many advantages such as a slow drying time allowing for the paint to be manipulated it many ways - and of course, the durability of the finally dried surface of the paint is legendary. Also, the ability to be able to wash or sponge-off the painting when it gets dusty or dirty over time, is a tremendous advantage if you live in a big city in a tropical country and you can't afford air-conditioning. (One reason why I have never sold a single painting in Manila - I have only done pastels up to this point...) The book includes chapters on: First steps in oil painting Step-by-step flower painting using oils Obtaining colors with oil paints Step-by-step landscape painting Drawing in oils - with a step-by-step banana and lemon still-life Using different brush-strokes - with a step-by-step river scene landscape Using cool colors - with a step-by-step still life with apples Using masses of color - with a garden painting demonstration Using light and shadow - with a pomegranate still life demonstration Pictorial planes with a step-by-step bottles and tablecloth still life demo
