"It's hard to believe," he said. "Time flies."
A South Mission Beach surfer, Cantalupo said he started the business simply because the building became available "and I felt the neighborhood had a need … We're kind of isolated down here," he said, pointing out that there's not a Starbucks in sight.
Located just across Mission Boulevard from the popular Pennant Bar, there's room for a coffee house and a bar, Cantalupo said.
Mission Beach Coffee Break — "about 70 paces to the beach" — is one in a long line of businesses that have occupied the 600-square-foot space through the years. Cantalupo has been told that the average life for businesses in this spot has been two years.
"I've doubled that," he said.
The storefront has housed a custom bathing-suit store, a postal annex and a surfboard shop, according to Cantalupo. Someone even told him that, way back when, it had been a five-and-dime store.
But he's far more interested in its most recent incarnation, a business built around six inside stools, a surfboard bench, an easy chair and two outside tables and chairs.
On a busy day, Cantapulo said he serves between 400 and 500 customers. On an average day, he figures he serves about 350. Customers include locals, winter students and summer family vacationers. Regulars include several Old Mission Beach Athletic Club old-timers, Cantalupo said.
"They've lived here so many years," he said. "It's cool getting to know the history of the neighborhood from them."
Customer Nancy Markins of Arizona said four generations of her family have been vacationing for years in South Mission Beach.
"We're all for small business 'cause we own one in Phoenix," she said.
According to Cantalupo, the neighborhood has changed in some ways — and in other ways it hasn't.
"There is more money and new construction," he said. "But the vibe stays the same. You know everybody's name and they all look out for you."
There are five full- and part-time employees serving up specialty coffees for between $2 and $4. Pastries cost between $2.75 and $4. Breakfast sandwiches are $5.25; a choice of bagels with cream cheese is $2.40, and acai smoothies are $4.75. Cantalupo said he plans to add a lunch menu, featuring panini sandwiches, by fall.
On a recent morning, the shop was out of pastries by 9 a.m.
"It usually lasts 'til 11 or noon," Cantalupo said, adding that baked goods are delivered every morning.
The best part about running the shop, which is open from 6 a.m. to
9:30 p.m. seven days a week, "is not having a boss," said Cantalupo, who formerly worked in financial sales. "The worst part about it is the time commitment. But it's all worth it."
He has been known to slip away to ride a few waves.
Customers are encouraged to bring their computers since there's free Wi-Fi "and I don't care how long they hang out." Patrons are also encouraged to bring books to exchange.
About every six weeks, on a Thursday from 6 to 9:30 p.m., he offers shows featuring largely unknown local artists.
"I wouldn't have imagined there would be so many beach-area artists," he said.
The paintings, which will hang on the walls until the next show, are priced at between $50 and $100.
"It's priced to sell," he said.
The coffee house announces dates for the soirees on Facebook.
On Fridays from noon to 2 p.m., Mission Beach Coffee Break features two acoustic guitar players. They offer "beach music, on the mellower side of things."
Though his hours are long, you can't beat the cross-section of customers and the laid-back atmosphere of the beach, he said.
• Mission Beach Coffee Break, 2888 Mission Blvd., (858) 488-8482

A war hero who was part of a Second World War operation that inspired the Hollywood blockbuster A Bridge Too Far, has died.
Trevor Barnett was one of the paratroopers who were sent on the ill-fated operation Market Garden in 1944.
As part of the 10th Parachute Battalion, Trevor, of Staveley, was dropped over Arnhem in Holland in a bid to go behind enemy lines and capture the eight bridges that spanned the network of canals and rivers on the Dutch/German border. But the German forces surrounded Arnhem bridge, and with the army unable to break through, the paratroopers surrendered.
Trevor's daughter, Lorraine Gillway, said: "Can you imagine what it must have been like for a young man?
"It is terrible. We don't know we are born."
She added: "But he wouldn't have called himself a war hero.
"He wouldn't have thought of it like that. He saw himself doing his duty."
Trevor was picked up with 50 others by a Dutch farmer and kept in a barn for four weeks, before escaping across Holland, aided by the Dutch, in what is known as the Operation Pegasus escape. Gwyneth Webb, Trevor's daughter, said: "He didn't speak much about his experiences, but you could tell there was trauma at times. But in those days you just got on with it."
Lorraine added: "When somebody is alive, you take it for granted. It is not until they have gone that you sit down and really start to think about the life lived."

Crosses to be removed at RI nightclub fire site
WEST WARWICK, R.I. (AP) — Crosses and other items are being removed at the site of a 2003 Rhode Island nightclub fire that killed 100 people, as the group working to build a permanent memorial clears the land so work can begin.
Members of the Station Fire Memorial Foundation are working Saturday to carefully remove the handmade crosses, photographs, stuffed animals and other items that have been there for the decade since the Feb. 20, 2003, fire in West Warwick.
The items will be placed into a vault and become part of the permanent memorial, estimated to be completed next year.
The site closed to the public Wednesday.
The foundation hopes to raise more than $1 million to build the memorial and maintain it.
The fire was started by pyrotechnics for the band Great White. The victims included people from Connecticut and Massachusetts.

Dave D'Onofrio's Patriots Notebook: Colts have played their best against the bestBY DAVE D'ONOFRIO
Special to The New Hampshire Union Leader
January 06. 2014 10:58PM
AROUND the NFL, five teams finished the latest regular season with at least a dozen victories — and only one team went unbeaten when forced to play more than one game against that elite quintet.
That would be the Colts, who beat the 49ers (27-7) in Week 3, beat the Seahawks (34-28) two weeks later, then they beat the Broncos (39-33) two weeks after that, and who now come to Foxborough looking to fell another of the league's giants on Saturday night, when they take on the Patriots in a divisional round playoff tilt made possible by the 28-point comeback Indianapolis used to stun Kansas City in eliminating the Chiefs during wild-card weekend.
That 45-44 win was the second in three weeks against an 11-5 squad that was beaten by only two other teams this season, so clearly the Colts are a team that can rise to the type of challenge that awaits them in a prime time road game against a coach and a quarterback combination that's headed for the hall of fame. That's a credit to Chuck Pagano and Andrew Luck, Indianapolis' answers at those two critical positions.
But what specifically worked for Indianapolis in San Francisco, and against Seattle and Denver, en route to their three most impressive victories? Let's look at a few common themes:
•Indy's defense was tough on third down.
Over the course of the season, the Colts ranked in the middle of the pack by allowing opponents to convert 37.6 percent of its opportunities on third down — but they elevated their ability to get off the field in those three contests. Totaled up, the three foes moved the chains just 10 times in 40 chances, a 25-percent clip that includes 2-for-12 from the Seahawks, 3-for-12 from the 49ers and 5-for-16 (31.3 percent) from a Broncos offense that was the league's second-best this season at 46.3 percent.
•Robert Mathis was a beast.
That was true of a lot of games this season, given the veteran edge rusher's league-high 19.5 sacks and nearly-as-impressive nine forced fumbles. But he was particularly disruptive during this sample, starting with 1.5 sacks and two hits on Colin Kaepernick against the 49ers. He followed that with two sacks, another hit, and a forced fumble against the Seahawks. And then he hit Peyton Manning four times, dropped him twice, and scored a safety by knocking the ball loose on one of them. Keep in mind that Denver allowed a league-low 20 sacks on the year.
•They made uncharacteristically big plays offensively.
Only seven teams had fewer receptions of 20-plus yards than did the Colts, however controlling the ball against the 49ers — owning a 36:25-23:35 advantage in time of possession — Indy toasted Seattle for touchdown passes of 73 and 29 yards to T.Y. Hilton, then hit on four plays of at least 25 yards against Denver. The Seahawks gave up fewer big plays than any team in football this season, but couldn't prevent a couple from Hilton, who scored the game-winner from 64 yards out on Saturday to cap a 13-catch, 224-yard effort.
•The Colts took advantage in red zone.
Indianapolis was good in the red zone this season, ranking seventh by scoring touchdowns on 58.9 percent of trips inside the 20. It was great, though, in this three-game sample, when it reached the end zone on seven of nine chances — equating to 77.8 percent. That would've led the league this year, and every year dating back at least a decade.
•They ran effectively enough to maintain offensive balance.
The Colts' running game is mediocre at best, ranking 13th in yards per carry and 20th in overall yards, but in all three games they were able to gain more yardage than the opponent allowed on average this season, including a particularly impressive 179 against the 49ers. That allowed them to maintain a near 50-50 balance between the run and the pass (51.3 percent run, 48.7 percent pass, to be precise) during those three wins. The Patriots placed their best run-stuffing linebacker on injured reserve Monday, as Brandon Spikes is done for the year with a knee injury, which should be a boon to Indy's ground game — and thus its unpredictability.
•Indy showed an ability to hang in.
There were stages in the three contests where the Colts were in jeopardy of the game getting away from them. They managed only two field goals with seven possessions over the middle 45 minutes of the 49ers game. Their offense opened punt-punt-safety against the Seahawks. The Broncos tightened things after falling behind, 36-17. But each time Indy flexed its mental toughness and found a way to stabilize itself, and ultimately a way to seize the opportunity.
So what does it all mean for the Patriots and their pursuit of a third-straight appearance in the AFC championship game? Maybe more than anything else, those three wins say that the Colts aren't going to be overwhelmed by the task at hand on Saturday night.
They entered each of those three games knowing they were in for a major test, and they succeeded in rising when it mattered, whether that was on third down or in the red zone or with the game hanging in the balance. Their most dangerous impact players — Mathis, Luck and Hilton — delivered as a team's best players must at this time of year.
They showed the physical toughness it takes to run the ball well. They showed the mental toughness it takes to survive through the hiccups and hurdles. And all of that will serve them well Saturday, as it generally has since Pagano and Luck took over before last season.
They aren't going to be intimidated by Brady, by Belichick, or by the Patriots' gaudy record. They aren't likely going to wilt and beat themselves. A dozen wins doesn't scare Indy — clearly — so if the Pats are going to advance, they're going to have to do what the 49ers, Seahawks and Broncos all didn't. They're going to have to outplay the Colts.
Plain and simple. But not so easy to do.

Four viewpoints in contemporary photography
"STRUTH–TILLIM–MORTAGNE–GUINDANI - Four viewpoints in contemporary photography" is a selection of four projects of the photographers Thomas Struth, Guy Tillim, Fred Mortagne and Stefano Guindani. They all worked with the mirrorless Leica SL.
Thomas Struth is known for his large-format conceptual series of museum interiors, architecture and nature. His most recent project comes as a surprise, as music is the central theme. The photos were taken during a music production in the concert hall of Marienmünster Abbey. Struth's portrayal of the guitarist Frank Bungarten and sound engineer Werner Dabringhaus impressively communicates the atmosphere of concentrated musicians at work. The project is complemented by photographs of the Baroque interior of the abbey church. Again, Struth not only draws the attention of the viewer to the Baroque objects in the empty church, but also to the atmosphere of silence and concentration. Exploring the room with precision, he discovers the place anew with the details he has chosen to photograph, interpreting it with his photographic imagery. Very subtly, he thus illustrates the contiguity of music and images by thematizing composition, variation and interpretation as common constants.
Guy Tillim has focused intensely on urban landscapes for some time. His main interest is not so much the photographic subject, but the attempt to approach it without bias or prejudice. The resulting images are authentic because they neither depict clichés nor do they desperately try to avoid them. There is no easy way in to Tillim's work. His pictures provide no clues for interpreting his subjects, the viewers have to find them out for themselves. Presented in diptychs, the work breaks the composition of the individual image, offering a view not of Tillim's thoughts, but of what he can actually see in front of him – in the middle of Berlin.
Fred Mortagne, better known in the skateboarding scene as "French Fred", is a unique phenomenon in skateboard photography. While most sports photographers concentrate on athletic performance and the most spectacular tricks, Mortagne creates a totally different perspective just by working in black and white. Mortagne, who began his career as a film maker, has developed the "Frangle" or "Fred Angle" technique for his videos: riding a skateboard himself, he accompanies and circles round his protagonists as if riding on a camera dolly. He looks for the special perspective in his photography, too, capturing flawlessly executed skateboard tricks (the elegance of movement counting more than the level of difficulty) against the background of dramatically composed architectural lines.
Stefano Guindani's behind-the-scenes view of the world of modeling focuses on the job rather than the fashion. He often shows models with tired eyes, hair curlers, pulling faces or scurrying from the stage to the dressing room. "It's becoming more and more important to take photographs backstage for several reasons," says Guindani. "Some are commercial, i.e. to enhance the visibility of the products, and some are journalistic, to present the show. But most of all the aim is to get authentic photos of the models. Without any staging and posing." His photos reflect his intuitive, seemingly almost involuntary approach. At times, structures blur and models' heads and bodies dissipate. That lends the photos an aura of the sublime and transcendental.
JH Engström | Wiktoria Wojciechowska
Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2015
In his prize-winning series Tout va bien, Swedish photographer JH Engström portrays impressions in a wide range of styles that reflect his emotions – from scenes of birth to poetic shots of nature, all the way to surreal portraits. Engström spent his early career in Sweden and France. After working as an assistant for Mario Testino and Anders Petersen, and completing a photography degree in Gothenburg, he published several successful books and collected numerous international awards.
Born in Lublin, Poland, Wiktoria Wojciechowska used her Short Flashes series to capture Chinese cyclists in the cities of Beijing and Hangzhou on their way through incessant rain. Her spontaneous shots, which go unnoticed by their subjects, portray a range of authentic moments. Her work has also been displayed at several exhibitions and festivals and published in numerous magazines.
Flash by Lenny Kravitz
With his first photo show Lenny Kravitz makes his mark in a new arena of the creative arts.
During his childhood, Kravitz was enthralled by cameras, playing with them like toys instead of taking photographs. In recent years photographer friends taught him the fundamentals of photography by using a Leica. Intrigued by the possibilities, Kravitz began creating his own works, featuring close attention to the nuances and effects created by light. As he himself had been endlessly photographed by photographers, paparazzi, and fans—his perspective on aesthetics was decidedly unique. This thrilling show captures the essence of what it's like to be a rock star who's constantly in the public eye. The result: an intense exploration of the photographer and his subject.
Enrique Badulescu
Appealingly different
"For my work on the S Magazine, I was given the opportunity to pull out all my creative stops. It's not about normal fashion photography. Every picture aims to take the viewer on a unique journey."
Enrique Badulescu belongs to the front line of contemporary beauty and fashion photographers. Expressivity and strong contrasts are part of his unique signature. "I love contrasts, not just of light and shadow, dark and light, but above all in colors." His underwater work is legendary. For over twenty-five years, international labels such as Hermès have have trusted in his ability to create the perfect imagery to convey their brand essence.
For the S Magazine, Badulescu has given new interpretation to the spirit of the labels being presented. With boundless creativity and a broad palette of techniques, he gives unique expression to his perception of fashion, beauty and lifestyle. He creates motifs and series which captivate the viewer with their liveliness. Upon closer inspection, the figures in the images seem to communicate with the viewer. Movement is also a central feature of his work, which is why Badulescu prefers to photograph outdoors, with special emphasis on shore and underwater shots. He appreciates the unpredictability of the elements and their ability to break down any stiffness in the arrangements, and in doing so, bring a softer quality to the images. To ensure diversity in his work for S Magazine, he occasionally dispensed with color. "Black and white is very poetic. Looking at the images, you get the feeling that you're watching an Antonioni film."
In addition to being an expert with the S camera, Badulescu shines using analog materials and techniques. He creates collages and adds painted details, giving digital photography the human touch that it can otherwise lack. Improvisation is also key: Badulescu's forte is to take chance situations, even mishaps, and speedily turn them into central features of his pictures. His playful, light treatment of concepts and materials allows him to continually dream up new visual pathways, new ways to portray a story. The series created exclusively for S Magazine are impressive testimonies of his talent.
Enrique Badulescu was born in Mexico City in 1961. He trained at the Bavarian State Academy of Photography in Munich. His international career began in the London music scene in the late 80s, when he worked for the British magazine The Face, and photographed the Rolling Stones. Shortly afterwards he was commissioned to do various album covers and was booked for his first campaign. His work has appeared in magazines such as Vogue, Elle, and Harper's Bazaar. Badulescu lives in New York.
Ralph Gibson
"I learned that I can take a picture wherever I can see one. With analogue photography I was often confronted with the limitations of the medium, but with the Monochrom I find I can go a step further."
For decades, Ralph Gibson – master of shadows and elegant nudes – was convinced that digital photography would never measure up to analogue. The American photographer had been taking pictures with analogue Leicas since 1961. In 2013 he had a visit from Duncan Meeder, owner of the Leica Store Lisse/Henny Hoogeveen near Amsterdam, who made him a special offer: a Ralph Gibson edition of the Leica M Monochrom, as well as prints and a book – all photos taken with the camera. Gibson agreed to the proposal and a short while later was exploring the potential of a digital camera for the first time.
The Mono series taken with the M Monochrom emerged over the following months: the images were taken in ten different countries – a journey around the world in contrasting black and white. At a first glance there is no common thread between them: daily scenes on the street, abstract cut-outs, immaculate bodies. However, though often insignificant moments, the pictures capture an exciting interplay of lines, light and darkness, and come together in a harmonious whole.
Many years ago, the great André Kertesz said to Gibson, "A photographer must learn to photograph everything." Gibson in turn commented in the foreword to the book, "Well, when one is fortunate enough to have such an advisor, perhaps it's wise to obey." The pictures in the series prove the point that it is, in fact, possible to photograph everything.
Ralph Gibson was born in Los Angeles in 1939. He studied photography in the US Navy and at the San Francisco Art Institute, and later worked as an assistant to Dorothea Lange and Robert Frank. In 1969, Gibson established Lustrum Press. Since then over 40 monographs of Gibson's work have been published.
Claire Yaffa
100 photographers – 100 portraits
"Photography is simply who I am. It is a gift I cherish. I will always be grateful to other photographers who have helped show me the way and to the people who permitted me to photograph them and allow me into their world."
Portraiture is the royal discipline of photography. Since the early days of the medium, people have been fascinated by its capacity to reproduce a person's features. The dialogue between the photographer and the one being portrayed can become an intimate moment of human communication. To ensure the desired result takes mastery and, above all, sensitivity on both sides of the conversation. Questions of self-expression, of similarity, of interpretation and of creative possibilities are an intricate part of every portrait photograph, and later on there is also the interaction between the viewer and the picture.
It is a known fact that few photographers like being portrayed themselves – they are obviously too used to the protection offered by standing behind the camera. Henri Cartier-Bresson's reserve in front of other photographers was legendary. He much preferred to go unnoticed to being the centre of attention. He has this in common with many other prominent photographers, who all preferred looking through the viewfinder to posing in front of the camera.
This makes the gallery of pictures Claire Yaffa has put together of her colleagues over many years, all the more exciting. Even Henri Cartier-Bresson made an exception, allowing her to photograph him for her project. In fact, he allowed her to do it a number of times. With passionate interest and a sensitive feeling for the moment, Yaffa's long-term project has become a veritable "who's who" of great photography personalities. A look at the gallery quickly reveals the truth of Cornell Capa's words when he said, "… fear not Yaffa, the photographs are beautiful and your images will remain."
Magic Moments
60 Years Leica M
"Shooting with a Leica is like a long tender kiss, like firing an automatic pistol, like an hour on the analyst's couch." Henri Cartier-Bresson
The camera is a key that unlocks the world. The Leica M, in particular, has opened up the door to capturing exceptional events and outstanding people. It adapts just as well to war zone photojournalism as to social reportage, to street photography as to poetic landscapes or tranquil portraits. Without a doubt, the Leica M is not just any camera. It is legendary, and for many it has become a collector's item or a status symbol. It is so much more than just a dependable, precision instrument, because every photographer develops a unique relationship to his or her own camera. A Leica is both a discrete observer, a lightening speed accomplice and a trustworthy companion. It works perfectly day after day, and can also create a magical connection to the greatest photographers and most famous pictures.
Many of the photographs that have lodged themselves in our collective consciousness were taken with a Leica M: important world events as much as chance encounters of everyday life, portraits of prominent personalities as well as nameless strangers. In Magic Moments, we see Marilyn Monroe, Mother Teresa and The Beatles, but also anonymous travellers, children at play and fleeting passers-by. Each photo has its own imagery, so there are just as many clearly composed pictures to discover as puzzling perspectives. Whether black and white or colour, this jubilee selection of pictures taken over the last six decades, presents unforgettable moments captured in legendary photographs. An exceptional kaleidoscope of diversity and surprises – just like life itself.
Leica M: the unique rangefinder camera system was first introduced in 1954 with the M3, and since then the family tree has continued to grow; but, despite the transformation to digital photography, continuity was always more important than constant change. If a typical photographic style exists for the Leica M, it could be defined as 'creative images that have emerged from the midst of life', photographs that are touching, that tell a story, that offer insight into the world and into daily life; quite simply, photographs that renew the Leica M myth every day, with fascinating results, whether taken by important photographers or by others as yet unknown.
10 x 10 exhibition
The 10 x 10 exhibition is a project created to celebrate the centenary of Leica Photography. It presents contemporary photography that looks to the future while also linking closely to the past.
For Leica camera AG, the move to the Leitz Park in Wetzlar is a return to its roots and a step into the future with new headquarters. The Leica Gallery Wetzlar has also made itself a home here, and is inviting visitors to explore the constantly evolving facets of the world of photography. The gallery is inaugurated with the 10 x 10 exhibition, a project created to celebrate the centenary of Leica Photography.
It presents contemporary photography that looks to the future while also linking closely to the past: the idea was to pair ten contemporary Leica photographers in a creative dialogue with ten of the great masters of photographic history, resulting in ten pictures each. It was not about modelling the images on the works of the old masters, but rather about the new ideas that might emerge from the interaction with the existing works: an artistic exchange, an impetus, a convergence and a demarcation.
Ciril Jazbec
Waiting to move
Ciril Jazbec, winner of the 2013 Leica Oskar Barnack Newcomer Award for emerging talents with his photo series "Waiting to move", focuses on the everyday life and the dying traditions of the Inupiaq Eskimos in Shishmaref.
Situated on an extremely narrow island off the north west coast of Alaska, the village is jeopardized by the climate change and the consequent rise of the sea level. To preserve the community, the inhabitants voted in 2002 in favor of a complete resettlement of the village to the nearby mainland. Ever since then they have been waiting for the American government to appropriate the funds necessary to finance the move. Ciril Jazbec's emotional images capture the mood of waiting and at the same time record the solidarity of a small community between tradition and modern times.
Evgenia Arbugaeva
The winner of the competition is Evgenia Arbugaeva from Siberia with her photo series "Tiksi". The theme of the series is everyday Arctic life in the photographer's home town.
Once a strategic military and science hub in the middle of the Siberian tundra, the port has long lost its air of importance. After the fall of USSR, when government stopped financing it's northern projects more then a half of population have left the town in search for a better future. In haunting and poetic images, the photographer evokes the fascinating beauty of the Arctic icescape and the people who live there. Her images are stark and without distracting detail, presenting everyday scenes of life in the harsh environment that show how the inhabitants come to terms with the permanent cold. Despite the harsh conditions, the photographer paints a very affectionate picture of her homeland and the images exude an almost fairy tale-like charm.
Ragnar Axelsson
Last Days of the Arctic
This exhibition is entitled "Last Days of the Arctic" and features black-and-white photos from the photo book of the same name by the Icelandic photographer Ragnar Axelsson. They have shown fascinating icescapes with gigantic glaciers as well as impressions from the everyday life of the Inuits, who earn their living by hunting seals, whales and polar bears.
The photos were taken near Kangertittivaq, better known as Scoresby Sund, a fjord system on the East coast of Greenland. This is the home of hunter Hjelmer Heimeken. Hunting is iconic to his cultural history, and he feels a deep respect for nature and its creatures. The conditions between ice and snow are hard enough, but made even tougher by the effects of the climate change that cause cracks in the ice and can cost the hunter his life. Hjelmer knows that he is risking his life every time he ventures out on the ice. But for him, this is the natural cycle: if he takes something from nature, he has to give something back in return – even if it's his own life.
Ragnar Axelsson, known as RAX, lives in Reykjavik and ranks among the most successful photojournalists in Iceland. Born in 1958, he has already traveled the whole world, but his passion is for the people in Nordic regions. His photographs tell stories of their life and survival in breathtaking natural surroundings. The pictures bear witness to the magnificence of the landscapes and the steadfastness of people in a natural environment endangered by climate change. Axelsson has already won many awards for his photo essays, including an "honorable mention" in the prestigious Leica Oscar Barnack Award competition.
Die gezeigten Aufnahmen sind mit der Leica M Monochrom entstanden und können käuflich erworben werden. Preisangaben sind auf Anfrage erhältlich.
Benedicte Lassalle
On My Side of Town
This exhibition is by the French photographer Bénédicte Lassalle and is entitled "On my side of town". The photos were taken in the 17th arrondissement of Paris, where the photographer lived for a long time. Fascinated by her environment, she has captured scenes and impressions of her everyday life, giving them an almost mystic character. This is because the views Bénédicte Lassalle presents are not a true-to-detail copy of reality.
Each picture is a photomontage combining an urban panorama with a nature photo. The trees with their labyrinth of branches, buds and leaves seem like a fine veil through which the viewer looks into the soul of Paris. As a result, the urban silhouettes take on a poetic beauty. The French capital looks like something out of a fairy tale – the ordinary exudes a special kind of magic.
Born in Provence in 1975, Bénédicte Lassalle now lives and works in the USA. She is a member of the French photographers' agency Agence Revelateur (www.agencerevelateur.fr). Photography is her vocation. Her ambition is to create photo documentation that reflects artistic quality and the vision of the author. She finds inspiration for her photographic projects in objects of everyday life. Her work has won several awards and featured in many publications. The exhibition "On my side of town" (French title: Par chez moi) will also be shown in the Galerie Imagineo in Paris from September 5th to 28th.
The exhibited photos were taken with a Leica M7 and a Leica Summilux-M f/1.4 /50mm ASPH. lens. They are available for sale (prices on request).
James Whitlow Delano
Selling Spring - Sex Workers Series
The theme of the "Selling Spring: Sex Workers Series" exhibition is prostitution. The American photographer James Whitlow Delano took the photos in various countries, including Japan, China and Mexico. Fascinated by this sub-culture, he adopts an extremely discreet approach. After all, his reportage is a risky undertaking. He is under constant observation – by pimps, clients, the police and the prostitutes themselves. This means he has to work quickly and inconspicuously, so the black-and-white series is exclusively composed of snapshots – the viewer will not find any arranged portraits here.
Delano's photos give us a backstage view of the sex industry. He is interested in the personal stories of the young men and women who do this job, as these stories are as varied as the motives that drive them to prostitution. Whether poverty, violence or hopelessness, every one of them has their own particular tragedy and deserves respect. The photographer shows the human beings behind the sex façade in an attempt to give them back part of the dignity they lost long ago.
Born in 1960, James Whitlow Delano is currently living in Tokyo. He has already worked in Asia for many years, mainly on long-term projects focusing on human rights, the environment and culture. His photographs, most of which are black and white, have been featured in magazines all over the world, such as the New York Times Magazine, Geo, Mare and Time Asia. He has already won many awards, for instance the Alfred Eisenstaedt Award, an honorable mention in the 2006 Leica Oskar Barnack Award and the Picture of the Year International Award.
The photos in the exhibition were taken with Leica M2 and M6 analog rangefinder cameras.
Nick Rains
Elevated Perspectives
The "Elevated Perspectives" project comprises ten large-format aerial photos taken by photographer Nick Rains from a Cessna 172. In the year 2011, Rains spent roughly 12 months touring the South West of Australia to document the region from the ground. When he was given the opportunity to take photos from the air he was immediately delighted with the result.
Aerial photography may not be a new genre, but these photos never cease to lose their fascination due to the different perspective they offer. The viewer is given the chance to see the world with different eyes and discover it anew. Looking with a bird's-eye view, the familiar environment becomes an adventure waiting to be explored.
Nick Rains' career as a photographer began about 30 years ago, starting in Europe in the eighties and continuing in his home country Australia from 1990 onwards. His work has already been published all over the world in books, newspapers, calendars and magazines.
The exhibited photographs were taken with the Leica S medium-format system and 70 mm and 120 mm lenses, and are available for sale (prices on request).
Yan Kang Yang
Tibetan Land
The photo series "Tibetan Land" of the Chinese photographer Yan Kang Yang gives insights into the life of Tibetans, who have one of the most mysterious cultures in China. A key theme of the project is the strong power of faith. The way the Tibetan Chinese live out their faith and pray to Buddha even under the harshest conditions – sometimes at altitudes of 4000 meters – exerts a great fascination, which the award-winning photographer has captured in impressive images. The most striking feature of the black-and-white photos is the peace they emanate. The viewer clearly senses the deep-rooted affinity of the people with their religion, philosophy and culture.
Born in 1954, Yang began his career as a photographer for a small local newspaper. He exhibited his work for the first time in 1988. His first exhibition in Germany in 1992 led to a large number of international projects. In 2005, Yang's photo report "Der lange Marsch zum lieben Gott" in GEO magazine earned him a Henri Nannen prize, an award honoring outstanding journalistic work, in the "Best Photo Reportage" category.
The displayed images were photographed with a Leica MP camera and Leica Summilux-M 1.4/35 mm lens and are available for sale (prices on request).
Udo Bernhart
Südtirol kulinarisch
In his photo project "Culinary South Tyrol", photographer Udo Bernhart takes the viewer on a culinary trip round Italy's northernmost province. This is a region where nearly everything grows, a place where the easy-going Mediterranean lifestyle meets Alpine down-to-earthness.
And the cuisine, boasting a long list of award-winning chefs, combines the best of both worlds. Sometimes, however, it's the plain delights that make the difference: bread from home-grown grain, wine from steep little vineyards or home-made fruit spreads. These products are made by people who live for their ideas. Only the best ingredients are good enough for them. The photographer has captured the culinary highlights in colorful pictures – a real treat for fans of German-Italian food – and shows the pride of all those responsible for their production. The Book "Südtirol kulinarisch" (Culinary South Tyriol) by Monika Kellermann, photographed by Udo Bernhart, was published by "Collection Rolf Heyne".
Udo Bernhart has worked as a free-lance photographer and photojournalist for more than 35 years. Born and bred in the Vinschgau region and deeply rooted in the South Tyrolean landscape, his assignments have already taken him all over the world, for instance to Terra del Fuego, China, Alaska and Camchatka. His work has been featured in German and international magazines. As well as many photo reports, he has published over 60 photo books.
The photos in the exhibition were taken with a Leica M9. They are available for sale (prices on request).
Frank Hallam Day & Piotr Zbierski
Gewinner des Oscar Barnack Preises 2012
First prize highly prestigious photography competition, the 'Leica Oskar Barnack Award 2012', goes to US photographer Frank Hallam Day for his portfolio entitled 'Alumascapes'.
Throughout his career as a photographer, Frank Hallam Day has concerned himself with many different aspects of the medium. Following numerous projects with a focus on political issues, his work has now increasingly turned towards exploring the relationships between man and the environment. For this, he shoots predominantly at night to reveal a suggestive and ambiguous side of the world. The latest example of this is illustrated by his winning portfolio 'Alumascapes'. This photographic project shows the results of a month-long journey through Florida. In his images, Frank Hallam Day depicts the phenomenon of man and his environment in a unique manner and makes recreational vehicles (RV's) – ultra-modern, high-tech and luxury homes on wheels – the brightly lit and dazzling stars of his pictures. They seem to be inextricably entwined in the jungle landscapes of Florida at night and appear as essential islands of security in a dark and hostile environment. They protect their owners with a feeling of safety and comfort in the lap of luxury. Of course, this form of escape no longer has much to do with the love of nature, relinquishing everyday luxuries or winding down. Frank Hallam Day's images reveal that the relationship between man and the environment is more ambiguous than ever before.
Piotr Zbierski is the winner of the 'Leica Oskar Barnack Newcomer Award 2012' with his portfolio 'Pass by Me'.
'Pass by me', the winning portfolio, represents the culmination of a project on which Polish photographer Piotr Zbierski has been working for five years. In his long-term project entitled 'White Elephant', the photographer explores the expression of emotions and the question of to what extent they can alter reality. In this, he is particularly fascinated by chance encounters. His view of people in the role of an impartial observer, fleeting encounters with strangers – without prior knowledge of his subjects – enables him to see what is pure and essential: people and their entire world of emotions. In the words of Piotr Zbierski, 'I chose photography because it lets me get very close to people. It is the only medium with a directness that lets me show the existence of the imagination in the real world.' In his images, he concentrates on faces, gestures, the expression of feelings and relationships. His images have no pretension of being original, but instead are authentic. They depict scenes from the heart of life itself, captured at a wide variety of locations. The majority were shot on journeys through Eastern Europe and India. Although the portfolio appears to have a random structure at first sight, an underlying order and relationship exists between the images. Together they build an entirety and relate a story of happiness, memories and encounters characterised by the photographer's own particular style.

The Walrus Says
Today is the day many of us join the Irish throughout the world in celebrating their wonderful traditions and culture. So, we asked island councilor Bill Murphy what it's like being one of those very special people.
"When asked what it means to be Irish, I would say my answer has changed over the years. When I was very young, it meant my grandparents came from a country across the ocean and we had lively music and for some reason wore green on St. Patrick's Day.
"As I got older and learned of the history of Ireland, I understood the passion my grandparents had about being Irish. The Irish have overcome a lot of adversity, from being conquered, having an occupation army in the homeland, famine, the mass exodus on ships that were sometimes unsafe and the lack of hospitality in the new homeland.
"I learned that the Irish worked hard to overcome everything that was brought upon them. They adapted and took jobs no one else wanted so they could support themselves and their families. They became the backbone of the cities on the police and fire departments. These were not great jobs but the ones they could get. When faced with problems we look for solutions.
"We are passionate in things we do and love our families most of all. My family has not always been close, but we are family. I strongly believe that family is not a bloodline, but a matter of the heart. At some point in my life I learned to simply say, what can I do to help? That is what my Irish heritage taught me. To be Irish is to be firm in your convictions but understanding of others. If you are in trouble you can count on an Irishman standing beside you lending support." *** Last week's mystery movie was no mystery to Elizabeth Mancini, Leah McGowan, Diane Hull, Elena Rembijas and Mary Frances Doss out there in Corning, Calif. The 1952 movie is "The Quiet Man," directed by John Ford and starring John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara.
The poser, an Irish tune named "I'll Tell Me Ma," drew responses from Elizabeth Mancini and Kath O'Neill. Kath added that the song is on the CD titled "Another Door Opens," by the Celtic Gathering, a Jamestown-based Celtic band.
We always smile when politicians say that a local project won't cost residents anything because it's being paid for by the state or federal governments. Where do they think that money comes from?
Regardless of what you may have heard or read, Kate Middleton, fiancée to Prince William, will never be queen of England.
Leo, a buff-colored 4-month-old male kitten, has been adopted from the Potter League for Animals by islander Barbara Morse. He joins Sonny, a 1-year-old orange male. Barbara said they are getting along well and as we spoke they were chasing each other around the dining room table. "Leo has brought so much joy into our house," Barbara said.
Our pussy willow tree is turning white and we saw a robin under it. Hang in there!
Poser: I will build my love a tower
Near yon' pure crystal fountain
And on it I will build
All the flowers of the mountain
Was anyone surprised that building a bridge over the Sakonnet could become such a fiasco?
Super kudos to Cloud Nine, staffed by volunteers and supported by donations, that last week flew 22 dogs and puppies from North Carolina to the Potter League for Animals in Middletown. Based in Williamsport, Penn., Cloud Nine rescues animals scheduled to be euthanized and flies them to animal leagues throughout the country.
An underrated musical directed by Francis Ford Coppola and released in 1968 told the story of an Irish immigrant who comes to America and encounters racism. What was the film and who starred?
Not to be upstaged by St. Patrick's Day, spring will arrive on Sunday.
Be true!

A-Z Challenge 2014: H is for Half-Baptised
Here is why: if a baby was so sickly it was thought that it would die, the midwife was given permission to baptise the child there and then. If the baby did actually survive, then later it might be recorded in the registers as being 'received into the church'. It was important to certain faiths that a child be baptised so that its immortal soul could be saved (and it could be buried in consecrated ground).

That's really good information. I haven't done much with genealogy. I started some family research while evaluating databases the library system I work for was thinking of buying. It was fun and I want to learn more.ReplyDeleteReplies
Well, there's always plenty to learn! (and I am still learning after 30+ years). Please dive in and start researching - you'll be glad you did. Thanks for stopping by!Delete
Very interesting. I have never come across "half baptized" in any of my genealogical research. I would have never thought of a midwife baptizing a child before. It's amazing what you come across in genealogy.ReplyDeleteReplies
I know. I have found some weird-and-wonderful things along the way. Thanks for stopping by!Delete
Fascinating stuff and all new to me - I have seen privately baptised and wondered if this was because they were visiting away from their normal church when the baby arrived!ReplyDeleteReplies
Well, one thing I have learned over the years is never to say 'this is definitely WHY', because our ancestors seem to take delight in being the 'exception to the rule' sometimes. Sigh. Just when you thought you had it all worked out...Delete

I often found that they may have given more importance to baptismal certificates than actual births. The info I have from my mom has marriages and baptismal but no death or birth.ReplyDeleteReplies
Of course, it really depends on what date you are looking at. In the UK, civil registration (like birth certificates) only began in 1837. So, if your mom's research went further back - there were only church records (like baptisms and burials) anyway.Delete

It seems that there are some plastic surgery treatments that go in and out of popularity as trends change and people are eager to look a different way. For a while, it was all about being as thin as possible and there were lots of people signing up for things like liposuction. Now, you will find that more people are interested in shaping the perfect silhouette for their body. If you want to have the best possible butt then you might be considering going to a Toronto Brazilian butt lift clinic. This is a treatment that will make you look like you have a behind like many of the celebrities that you see with Spanish and Portuguese ancestry.
Snoring Appliances
There are many people in Toronto that suffer from snoring. There are professionals in Toronto that specialize in developing helpful options for those that suffer from snoring and sleep apnea. One of the solutions that these Toronto professionals have come up with, is a snoring appliance that is meant to ease or completely remove snoring so that it can help you and your partner to have a better night's sleep.
Benefits of Counseling in Hamilton
Those that require counseling services in Hamilton, individual therapy may be one of the best options. In Hamilton, those that work in counseling services understand the hardships that one faces when dealing with depression, self-esteem or abuse. As a result, Hamilton's counseling services will provide you with real, practical help when life begins to feel overwhelming, and will work with you to help overcome depression and anxieties and promote happy, healthy living.

Rhinoplasty Services In Toronto
When surgery is mentioned, people often think about open heart surgery, brain surgery or any other big time medical procedure. We often don't think about minor surgeries first, even chalking some up to strictly cosmetic or dental when the term 'minor' is used.
Laser Clinics
When many people speak about laser clinic in Alberta, it is about all of the intrigue and fascination that is associated with celebrities and those with plenty of money to burn doing all that they can to fight the aging battle or improving those things that are not completely perfect about them. This can be an activity that is seen as only being for the vain and the rich but, in reality, you will find that there are all kinds of different people who are visiting a laser clinic for a consultation appointment. There are those that just want to change that one thing about their physical appearance and there are those who are doing it for health reasons.
Stop Snoring
There are many things which can cause strain in a relationship. Money, family, house hunting, chores, and sex are a few of the most common reasons that couples might develop animosity toward one another. But sometimes your relationships can be damaged by what one person might see as a little thing: snoring. Toronto couples often have extra long days due their commutes, extra commitments at work, and having to attend extracurricular activities, which means the average Torontonian is already running a sleep deficit. If their sleep is further restricted by the snoring of their partner, it can easily become a major bone of contention in the relationship.
Facelift Surgery
Every once in a while we still hear the entertainment headlines about the latest celebrity who has gotten some work done and is suspected of getting a facelift. But, it is no longer something that is only reserved to those that are in the Hollywood spotlight and is not even seen as something that is just for those that have a lot of extra money to spend on such things. There are all kinds of people who are choosing to visit a Toronto facelift clinic to see if this procedure might be right for them and a few different reasons why they are making that first consultation appointment.

The Best Cosmetic Surgeon in Edmonton
|In fields such as sports journalism, acting, and singing, it's kind of easy to determine who the best of the best is. Awards play a large part in determining whom the best sports journalists, actors, or musicians of today are. If you want to find out who is currently considered the best actress working today all you have to do is look up acting awards such as the Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes, and the Tonys, and you'll be presented with a clear-cut list of winners.
Not every field or industry has such prestigious awards though, so what do you do when, as an example, you're trying to figure out who the top plastic surgeon in Edmonton is? Trying to chose a plastic surgeon, no matter the procedure, be it teeth whitening or tummy tucking, isn't something you want to leave in the hands of a cosmetic surgeon or cosmetic dentist that isn't at the top of their game.
You want to be assured that whichever cosmetic procedure you are going in for will be performed by a competent cosmetic surgeon. So, how exactly do you know that the cosmetic surgeon that will perform your cosmetic surgery in Edmonton is one of the top plastic surgeons in Edmonton ? Well, education is a key part in that, and if you can find a cosmetic surgeon in Edmonton that has studied at, and graduated from, the world's top medical schools, then you will know that you can trust their medical intelligence.
Certificates and recognitions from boards such as the American Board of Plastic Surgery or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, in which plastic surgeons have been certified is also seen as good sign. A top plastic surgeon in Edmonton wouldn't be able to practice their trade if they weren't certified by the proper channels.
If you can find a plastic surgeon in Edmonton that has been accredited by an easily recognizable medical school(s) and board(s), you can consider them to be a part of the top Edmonton cosmetic surgeons, which should make people feel more comfortable when using them for any cosmetic surgery procedure.
Surgery Options
Once you have decided to go ahead with elective plastic surgery and have arranged your finances so that you can afford it, your next step should be to choose the plastic surgery clinic where you want to have your procedure done. General plastic surgery and rhinoplasty surgery is a lucrative business, especially in big cities such as Toronto, so there will be no shortage of clinics you can choose from. The problem is: what criteria should you be using to narrow your list of choices? What does one look for in a plastic surgeon? This article can help you arrange your thoughts and make your choices.
