This condition may be or feel embarrassed, but strangely does not actually have people who wanted to achieve the look. People who can not have eyes from aniridia blacks black contact lenses.

What are contact lenses black? Black Contact lenses> are a special kind of theatrical contact lenses that are extremely dark.

The first type of black contacts are intended to cover those with whom only the iris.

Given that cover most of the eyes, they tend to be much largerContacts, the latter only the iris. The look is achieved, similar to that of some cartoon characters ... an eye that is 100% black.

Presentation - John Dowding - a private lesson in photography from a true master

Dowding, John and I met a few days at Spiaggia Restaurant, where I had a conversation with the owner, Mary Lee. Center of the restaurant, I have connected with John, was quietly enjoying a plate of mussels. I sat down with John for about twenty minutes, and told us clearly to me, we had much in common: a passion for the visual arts, photography and travel. John invited me to call to arrange a visit to his studio on a different day, so that he would be able to show me his work.

JohnDowding has more than 50 years of experience in the art of teaching. After studying art and history at McMaster University in Hamilton, John has taught at various universities in southern Ontario and was head of the department of art at Lorne Park Secondary School in Toronto 1969-1986, high school, the famous Canadian Olympian Silken Laumann and John Wood graduated. From 1993 to 1995, he received a degree in Photographic Arts at Ryerson University, the first yearRyerson had received his official appointment to a university.

John Dowding, photography is a passion for many years. Over the past five years has begun to discover Cuba, and spent several weeks every winter in this fascinating country. Leave in a few days (February 2), John will return to Cuba: To run the "Cuba Now and Then" Photography Workshop and tours. The ten-day tour will take participants to Havana, where he has three days for the photos of Willvarious historical parts of the city, including the colon Cementario, where students practiced photography in infrared rays.

From there, the group is today the French colonial town of Cienfuegos, then historical Trinidad de Cuba, where they spend two-and-a-day and a half. Before returning to Havana, the group will continue for two days in Santiago de Cuba, the island's second city and former capital of the country. Give the possibility of architecture,The landscapes and special events such as flamenco and dance performances.

John is focused primarily on the photography of architecture, and also uses special devices like infrared film and pinhole cameras to achieve a particular effect, that he teaches his workshop participants. One of his favorite photos of Havana, was developed by a group of schoolchildren who were interested in swimming in the sea directly to the Malecon in Havana. When you out of water, were still watching the other, an image that reminds them,John of a frieze in a greek theater.

In recent years, John Dowding has formed a strong connection to Cuba, and said he wanted "before the Americans there were" too much. Upon his arrival in Havana for the first time I could not believe his eyes, the charm and the attraction was immediate. John and I discussed Havana, a city that we know both well. In order to explore the city, John has a team of local transport riders who actually consult a doctor and a nurse. I spent some time in Havaname a few years ago to learn Spanish at the University of Havana. Like John, I learned very quickly that the tourism industry much more profitable for the locals, as the exercise of their profession. I work as a waiter, tour guide and taxi driver can make the Cubans in a day several times their normal monthly salary of about $ 8 to $ 25 (per month!).

So this team of medical experts to drive a horse-drawn transport for tourists became his guide, and led him into one ofthe most fascinating cities in the New World. The fascination has never left, and John was in Havana, has been described as "a city in a time warp" several times in recent years. He is running another photographic tour in Cuba, 6-15 April. With the same company (Cuba Si Tours), John, another group of photography enthusiasts in Tuscany at the end of this year, an area in which John is referred to as one of the cradles of Western civilization, at least for the story artconcerned.

I left inspired after a conversation John has left his shell and decided that for a few days later in his private study to get him before he left for Cuba So today, after my interview with Steve and Paul, the owner of the room B & B Soul, I went on the presence of John Dowding in a quiet side street on the beach of history.

Study of John is currently undergoing reconstruction, so that some of his paintings have been put away. But IView more samples of his unique works of art, including some examples of his "Precambrian" series of photos. John said that at a certain moment in a friend's house, Georgian Bay, and when you eat the fish, which has open lines beautifully colored rocks that make up the Canadian Shield. Even as the Pre-Cambrian Shield, this ancient geological formation, the Earth is the largest area of exposed 'rock' shield '. The rock formations are from the Precambrian, including3.5 to 4 billion years ago, long before the living beings appeared on this planet. Containing the old stones, beautifully colored, striped and twisted formations.

Another set of images refers to studies of St. John of Cuba In addition to the standard of digital and traditional photography, John uses infrared film, particularly in environments that already have an atmosphere somewhat 'surreal, to cemeteries, for example. In addition, John uses a single piece of photographyEquipment: a pinhole camera. He showed me two examples of this type of equipment - cameras pinhole consist essentially of a simple wooden box with no target. The closure is essentially a hole in the box suspended manually by opening and closing a lid over the hole. Inside the box is a roll of 120 film. John said it was one of his pinhole cameras in Hong Kong in mahogany and brass. He brought with him his first trip to Havana in 2002, and has itsFavored by the device.

John explains that to calculate the exposure is manually by means of certain formulas. Double exposure are easy to create, resulting in a surreal and often bizarre special effect. Early versions of pinhole cameras have been by Aristotle in 300 BC stock pinhole camera of some features with the 'camera lucida, an optical device that allegedly was used by artists such as Vermeer and Frans Hals, described to represent accurately reflect the reality.According to John, the painters were able to fleeting expressions such as joy and laughter, a visual feat that was possible only through the capture using the camera lucida.

The camera lucida optical overlay the object, viewed on the surface of the drawing sheet, including the examination of the artists follow the contours of objects are painted. As a result of these artists has never used the sketches for the paintings are painted directly on a beautiful canvas - "a la", with the help of grantsthe camera lucida, the image would project on their canvas.

John showed me a book called "Secret Knowledge - Rediscovering the Lost techniques of the Old Masters," where the author shows, David Hockney, some optical devices have already been used from 1425 classical painting, to compose images. The pinhole camera lucida and camera obscura "camera" prop, an optical device is used in the design, and one of the precursors ofCamera. Some camera obscura have been built as a tourist attraction, often cast in the form of a large central chamber space in a tall building, so a 360 degree view from the outside world will be on a horizontal surface through a rotating lens. One of the few camera obscura is in Havana, Cuba

John added that he regularly teaches a course on "impressions" at the Haliburton School of the Arts. He explained that a weekCourse is usually held in July, among other things, he takes his students to a local river, where canoes are equipped with a playhole ", a section with a deep hole dug in the stream-based, so that practice difficult maneuvers river. Photography students learn to sit on rocks on the river, very close to the canoe and take interesting shots of water and exercise. There is no need for a telephoto lens.

Because I had head, mysubsequent interview with another creative person, Lucille Crighton, one of Canada 's mainly textile-artist, I thanked John for his time and the information shared with me. I would estimate that exposure to photographic techniques and optical devices, and I would say John Dowding, experts and a patient teacher, really enjoying his knowledge.

I wish that I secretly join John on his photographic journey through Cuba (Tuscany or for that matter) might. Maybe somedaythe future ...

If you live in> Canada, then you need a prescription to buy contacts. This also applies if you buy from a wall outlet or to purchase Canadian outside Canada, perhaps from the Internet.
A Canadian company is not allowed, contacts without a prescription, selling to all, whether in Canada or not.

This rule rather from Canada regarding the purchase lenses are concerned, if you do not have a current prescription. E 'essentially the same, such as the United Kingdom orUSA.

So, what is the great thing about Canada and contacts? If Canada is different from other countries is treated as the colored contact lenses.

It 'true that can get contact lenses without prescription from Canada, where plano, orZero-Force.

The origin of contact lenses

Contact lenses Buy a very emotional moment for one person, because it is the way they look, everything changes. The world is in a way that you see little distortion, which are the right size, and has seen everything at bay. In a sense it is a kind of shell shock, if the contacts and the person sees the world for the first time through them. But who invented contact lenses? Where did it come from? These questions are good, because it is aMystery of who the concept of contact lenses. However, you can look at the history of this little round piece of plastic that allows millions of people, the world as it is to be surprised.

The reason that there was some debate over who is the notion that Leonardo da Vinci sketched what was a goal that fits should appear to the thought. Then Descartes came up with the idea of contact lenses in 1632 Of course, at this point nothingnever to come until 1801, when Thomas Young the opportunity to adequately develop their own vision. This was done using a microscopic lens at the end of a glass tube that was filled with water.

However, in 1887 and 1888 were the years when progress has been made to develop a contact lens and free those who felt compelled by his own glasses. These were the years in which they were glass lenses, but they were not comfortable. They have only a small correctionSeries of visual impairment, were not exactly considered a success. What they were seen as a step in the right direction.

It was not until 1948, when Kevin Touhy immediately thought that the new lenses were made of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), which could be built on the market. He received the patent for the first plastic contact lenses and was much more pleasant than the glass lenses, which haddeveloped, sixty years ago. However, it was in 1961 that the lens Czechoslavakian Otto Wichterle's soft contact lens that has evolved and is still the choice of contact lenses. Continued but the goal is difficult to contact, to use soft contact lenses on the market in 1971 .

Contacts to develop further, according to people all over the world began to take advantage of the soft contact lens. In 1978, gas-permeable lenses were madeavailable. These lenses are hard contact lenses that the oxygen flow freely through them to allow the cornea. This is important to breathe for the eye. However, the contacts for a short period of time could be worn. It was not until 1981, as a contact for extended use approved. However, had the contacts to go throw away every week. If worn for too long, then the bearer of the risk of infection to the eyes. For the year 1986, which was an overnight wear of rigid gas permeable contactapproved.

But it was in 1987 that the only way to contact has been established. These soft contact lenses can be worn from one day up to two weeks before being discarded. It was suggested that they be taken in the night and every morning in order to receive the eye to 100% oxygen during the night. These contacts are still in use, but there are others have been introduced on the market.

In 2001, extended wear disposable contact has permitted to wearfor a maximum of 30 days without removal of contacts in the night market. Now, carriers are able to view 24 / 7 too. Some carriers are not able to wear these goals in order to continue to use extended wear for two weeks, but these contacts once again changed how the world looks.
