Leamington

from Cornell University Library

• DON said:

  This is my old school!
  
  Built in 1847 as Leamington College, it then housed the Sacred Heart Catholic Convent from 1903-1916, and subsequently Dover College from 1916-1922, before once again becoming Leamington College for Boys. I was a pupil here from 1959 to 1966.
  
  In 1977 as part of secondary school reorganization, it became Binswood Hall sixth-form centre. It finally closed altogether in 2009, was sold for redevelopment, and is currently (July 2010) awaiting conversion into a retirement flats complex.

• Sam Saunders said:

  Strange to tell, my current home is a flat in a retirement flats complex in Bristol.

  article on the process of photochrom: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochrom "A litho stone is coated with a thin layer of purified bitumen dissolved in benzene. A reversed half-tone negative is then pressed against this light-sensitive coating and an exposure in daylight made (taking from 10–30 minutes in summer, to several hours in winter). The bitumen hardens and becomes resistant to normal solvents in proportion to the light. The coating is then washed in turpentine solutions, removing the unhardened bitumen. It is then retouched in the tonal scale of the chosen color to strengthen or soften the tones as required. Each tint needs a separate stone bearing the appropriate retouched image, and prints are usually produced by at least six, and more commonly from 10 to 15 tint stones.[4]"

  I love the profile of Chaac visible on the building to the right. It's a testament to the architectural skills of the Maya that so many delicate details survived.
