Between 1909 and 1912, Russian photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii took over 300 color photographs across the Russian Empire using a specialized three-filter camera. These photographs provide a rare glimpse into life in Russia at the time before World War 1 and the Russian Revolution. The high quality color images were captured using a technique where three black and white images were taken in succession and later combined, allowing for near true color reproduction. The photographs show people, landscapes, architecture and industry across regions such as European Russia, the Caucasus, Central Asia and Siberia.

El documento discute el impacto de la imagen y la tecnología en la humanidad. Específicamente, analiza cómo la televisión y Internet han llevado al ser humano de ser homo sapiens (ser humano que piensa) a homo videns (ser humano que ve), dependiendo más de las imágenes que de las palabras. También advierte que si bien la imagen puede entretener e informar, también puede empobrecer nuestra capacidad de comprender conceptos abstractos.

Turkey has been developing its own domestic weapons programs in recent decades to reduce foreign dependence and boost its defense industry. Some of Turkey's notable domestically produced weapons include the Altay main battle tank, the T129 attack helicopter, the MILGEM corvette warships, and the TF-X next generation fighter jet that is currently under development. Turkey aims to be among the top 10 countries in defense exports by 2023.

Francesco Lentini was born with a rare condition of having three legs, two sets of genitals, and 16 toes total across four feet. He was raised in an orphanage and learned to ice skate and jump rope. As an adult, he joined the Ringling Brothers circus and toured the United States as "The Great Lentini", using his third leg to kick a soccer ball. Despite his condition, he married and had four children, living until 1966 in Florida.
1. Russia in color, a century ago<br />With images from southern and central Russia in the news lately due to extensive wildfires, I thought it would be interesting to look back in time with this extraordinary collection of color photographs taken between 1909 and 1912. In those years, photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii (1863-1944) undertook a photographic survey of the Russian Empire with the support of Tsar Nicholas II. He used a specialized camera to capture three black and white images in fairly quick succession, using red, green and blue filters, allowing them to later be recombined and projected with filtered lanterns to show near true color images. The high quality of the images, combined with the bright colors, make it difficult for viewers to believe that they are looking 100 years back in time - when these photographs were taken, neither the Russian Revolution nor World War I had yet begun. Collected here are a few of the hundreds of color images made available by the Library of Congress, which purchased the original glass plates back in 1948. [Editor's Note: I will be on vacation for a bit. Next entry will be published on 8/27] (34 photos total)<br />Rus çarının özel fotoğrafçısı Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii (1863-1944) 1909 ve 1910 yıllarında kendi geliştirdiği bir yöntemle daha renkli fotoğraf tekniği geliştirilmeden önce renkli resimler çekti ve bunlar günümüze ulaştı! <br />Objeyi kıpırdatmadan arka arkaya 3 defa mavikırmızı ve yeşil filtrelerle çektiği resimleri özel banyolarda yıkadı ve tek renkli çıkan bu şeffaf filmleri üstüste koyarak renkli saydamlar elde etti. Bunlar günümüzde renkli fotoğraf kağıdına basılabiliyor. O günlerde ise ancak saydamları projektörle görülebiliyordu. <br /> Buyurun siz de bu resimleri görün:<br /> http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2010/08/russia_in_color_a_century_ago.html<br />(muhteşem resimler ve teknik, hem de o yıllarda. gk)<br />An Armenian woman in national costume poses for Prokudin-Gorskii on a hillside near Artvin (in present day Turkey), circa 1910.
