Phil's photos with the keyword: AZ-1

An old photo from 2004 showing the River Ouse in flood (which happens there most years, usually in February). Very low resolution by today's standards.....I can't remember which camera I used but I think it was an Olympus AZ-1 compact which only had a 3 megapixel sensor. SEE NOTE. Processed with Nikon Capture NX2 and Pixlr Editor.

"What are these, so withered, and so wild in their attire, that look not like th' inhabitants o' the Earth, and yet are on't ?" (Shakespeare: Macbeth). This photograph was taken with one of my first digital cameras, an Olympus AZ-1 compact which had a very low-resolution sensor by today's standards. Photographed outside "Witches Galore", a Gift and Souvenir shop in the village of Newchurch-in-Pendle, Lancashire, North-West England. Processed with Nikon NX2 software. (Title & quote from "The Scottish play").

One of the "Viking" boats which race each other on the River Ouse in York during the annual Jorvik Festival. Photographed a few years ago with an Olympus AZ-1 (low resolution) compact camera and processed with Nikon Capture NX2. More Information here: www.jorvik-viking-festival.co.uk

The view from the top of Malham Cove in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, North Yorkshire, UK, looking South. The camera used was an Olympus AZ-1 with a comparatively-low resolution by today's standards but the results were usually good.

The Class A3 Pacific steam locomotive No. 4472 Flying Scotsman was built in 1923 for the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) at Doncaster Works to a design by H.N. Gresley. It was employed on long-distance express trains on the LNER and its successors, British Railways Eastern and North-Eastern Regions, notably on the 10am London to Edinburgh Flying Scotsman train service after which it was named. The locomotive is notable for having set two world records for steam traction, becoming the first steam locomotive to be officially authenticated at reaching 100 miles per hour (160.9 km/h) on 30 November 1934 and then setting a record for the longest non-stop run by a steam locomotive when it ran 422 miles (679 km) on 8 August 1989. Retired from regular service in 1963 after covering 2,076,000 miles (3,341,000 km), Flying Scotsman gained considerable fame in preservation under the ownership of Alan Pegler, William McAlpine, Tony Marchington and finally the National Railway Museum, York. As well as hauling enthusiast specials in the United Kingdom, the locomotive toured extensively in the United States (from 1969 to 1973) and Australia (from 1988 to 1989). Flying Scotsman has been described as the world's most famous steam locomotive. (Wikipedia). www.ipernity.com/group/england
