Copied this from a 4X5 etrs print.

The power of the longbow, 15 shots/minute that could pierce thin armour..in the early wars with the French they had no answer to this weapon and just like Hannibal in Roman times, the French refused to meet an English army and shut themselves up in their castles, so the English roamed up and down France plundering the countryside, and of course grabbing land that was held until near the end of the hundred year's war.
Wellington realised the value of the longbow (15shots/min) against mass French infantry and cavalry and asked if there were any longbow men, and was told there were none.

Geothermal power...



North Island New Zealand, 1974, Kodachrome, Pentax Electro-Spotmatic, probably Takumar 55mm f/1.8

We modeled our 3 week driving tour of NZ on the coach tour itineraries, which worked really well except they (and therefore we) spent 4 nights in the geothermal regions of central North Island, which was a bit much. I'd rather have been off among some mountains. However, there were some very unusual sights and sounds, to say the least.
 
OK, this one will have to do for me for this one. A local photographer lent me a Mamiya c330 a few years ago, I put one roll of film through it before he asked for it back as he had found out how much it was worth and found a buyer :LOL:

Anyway, the Thames, up at Kingston and some oar-some power!! Yeah, I'll get my coat :oops: :$
