This is a closeup view toward east. This photo may be felt like revealing the magic of the theme "Nature in Tokyo."
Direct distance to the centre of Tokyo from Kagenobu-yama is more or less 50 km.
The tower in the upper-left is called Tokyo Skytree (東京スカイツリー), a broadcasting tower of 634m. It is the second tallest structure in the world after Bhurj Khalifa in Dubai.
The twin tower building to the right of Skytree is Tokyo Tochou or the metropolitan government office (東京都庁), and the area around the building is called Shinjuku (新宿).
Shinjuku is the starting point of the Oume Kaidou (青梅街道) road in Okutama (奥多摩).
Horizontal green belt as appears below Shinjuku marks the location of the Tamagawa (多摩川) river.
Cluster of buildings just behind the green hill is the urban centre of Hachiouji city municipality (八王子市).

Once again we are at Lake Shuswap where we are frequently privy to some amazing sunsets. I have an "old haunt" picked out that gives me direct access to the far mountains, and the setting sun during summer. Again, mother nature delivered her finest and I captured a few images.
The next night we shared the sunset and enjoyed a late dinner on the beach. The sky can be as entertaining as any tv show, as scenes change with each passing moment. Every night channel NBS delivered award winning entertainment that we enjoyed from the comfort of our chairs.

The Tokyo Skytree is a broadcasting and observation tower in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan. Standing at 634 meters, it is the tallest structure in Japan and the second tallest in the world. The Skytree serves as a major tourist attraction, offering breathtaking views of Tokyo and beyond.
At 350 meters, the Tembo Deck provides a stunning 360-degree panoramic view of Tokyo. The deck is surrounded by large glass panels, allowing visitors to see up to 70 kilometers away on clear days. The Tembo Deck also features a café, souvenir shops, and a glass floor section where you can look straight down to the ground below.
At 450 meters, the Tembo Galleria is a tubular, glass-enclosed walkway that spirals up from floor 445 to floor 450. It gives visitors the sensation of walking in the sky. The highest point, known as Sorakara Point, is at 451.2 meters and offers breathtaking views of the city. The Tembo Galleria also includes high-resolution digital telescopes and commemorative photo spots.
Visiting these attractions is a unique experience, offering breathtaking views of Tokyo's beauty and vastness from great heights.

In some parts of the world agricultural practices have not changed for thousands of years. This photo, taken in the Iranian deserts near Hamedan shows a farmer scattering (broadcasting) seed by hand over his land.
Broadcasting House, Leeds. It’s won various national and international Architecture awards, and is a building that divides opinion. One thing I’m certain of is that the designer didn’t account for Peregrine Falcons nesting on the side of it...
Broadcasting Tower is a university building in Broadcasting Place in Woodhouse Lane, Leeds, England. It houses the Faculty of Arts, Environment and Technology, while the main tower section consists of student flats.
It was designed by Stirling Prize-winning architects Feilden Clegg Bradley. It is clad in COR-TEN weathering steel, which has given it the rust-like appearance it is known for.[
I love the curvaceous edges of these propeller-like yellow blossoms! And the darker center seems to set them ablaze!
The stubby stems of the Frangipani hardly predict the delicate curling-edged blossoms that will emerge! Frangipani (or Plumeria) is easy to propagate here in South Florida. During the Spring, simply break off some good-size pieces from a friend's tree... with permission of course... and stick them in the ground. I frequently find discarded cuttings for trash pickup at the curb. Various Frangipani varieties come in pink, white, yellow and lavender so get a few of each if you can.
We have a Frangipani Archway between our house and our neighbors'. And it's in glorious full-bloom right now. Beautiful during the day, at night it's even more beautiful. The smell transports you to another world. Ah! It's no wonder the ever-so-fragrant Frangipani is a prime ingredient in some of the world's finest perfumes and the flower is in the Hawaiian lei.

Metal KPRK radio rotunda, iconic Livingston symbol removed
Dan Astin Enterprise Staff Writer Dec 1, 2023
The faux stylized radio tower spire, an iconic symbol of KPRK radio and Livingston, was removed on Thursday, as part an ongoing construction project, restoring the derelict broadcasting building and grounds to their formal glory.
In reference to the rotunda's temporary removal during restoration, Andrew Feltenstein, owner of Moleo Media Group, a limited liability company, which is the site's property owner, said "We can't save everything, but we will be putting the rotunda back up."
Juston Gougeon, founder and vice president of operations for Basecamp Construction, the contractor responsible for the restoration, inferred rehabbing the radio station, which has been abandoned for over a decade, will have different challenges, in order to preserve the station's unique exterior architecture.
As part of preserving the building as a public business for the future, steel beams and hydraulics will need to lift the entire structure above the Yellowstone River flood-plane.
The nearly 80 year old structure will have to be brought up to Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility specifications, with all components of the building's infrastructure modernized, without altering the exterior.
An outdoor amphitheater for music events is a planned edition to the rear of the property.
The contractor explained finishing the restoration project, which will be assisted in-part through historic preservation tax credits, will be worth it in the end.
"There's going to be a lot of money invested in Livingston in the next 10 years. Andrew's passion for this project is contagious and Basecamp Construction is excited to be a part of the restoration of one of Livingston's most iconic buildings," said Gougeon.

I thought that I imagined the state that a picture of TV flew here steadily such from far away that I would be glad if I was TV.

"The reusable first stage on Tuesday’s mission — tail number B1060 — aced its 15th launch and landing, tying a record for the most-flown booster in SpaceX’s inventory. It debuted in June 2020 on a mission carrying a GPS navigation satellite into space, and most recently flew Oct. 8 on a mission with two Intelsat TV broadcasting satellites."
After the visit to the cat cafe we decided to make our way to Battersea, walking back a slightly different route to Oxford Circus to catch the Tube. I was surprised to pass these London landmarks.
This shows the exterior of Broadcasting House, the headquarters of the BBC in London.
A new East wing, built in the same Portland stone as the original Broadcasting House, balances the existing construction. The two buildings are linked by a glass-fronted extension, allowing visitors and passers-by to witness the BBC's daily activities. The glass was specially treated to create varied lighting effects throughout the day.
An integrated lighting scheme for the site also embraces the neighbouring All Souls' Church. The Broadcasting House complex surrounds a new central 'piazza' space, a new public destination in central London, with facilities including a cafe and performance area. (From BBC.com)
The main building was refurbished, and an extension built to the rear. The radio stations BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio 4 Extra and the BBC World Service transferred to refurbished studios within the building. The extension links the old building with the John Peel Wing, and includes a new combined newsroom for BBC News, with studios for the BBC News channel, BBC World News and other news programming. The move of news operations from BBC Television Centre was completed in March 2013. The official name of the building is "Broadcasting House" but the BBC, until 2024, used the term "new Broadcasting House" (with a lowercase 'n') in its publicity referring to the new extension rather than the whole building, with the original building known as "old Broadcasting House". (From Wikipedia)
Broadcasting House is the headquarters of the BBC, in Portland Place and Langham Place, London. The first radio broadcast from the building was made on 15 March 1932, and the building was officially opened two months later, on 15 May. The main building is in Art Deco style, with a facing of Portland stone over a steel frame. It is a Grade II* listed building and includes the BBC Radio Theatre, where music and speech programmes are recorded in front of a studio audience.
The head of BBC history, Robert Seatter, has said George Orwell in his novel Nineteen Eighty-Four (1949), "reputedly based his notorious Room 101 from the novel "on a room he had worked in whilst at the BBC."
In 1985 it was revealed by The Observer that MI5 had had a special office in the building from 1937 for the purpose of vetting BBC employees for national security purposes.

According to Wikipedia, there are no fewer than 40 radio studios and 17 television studios inside. All your favourite BBC radio programs and news channels are recorded here by the looks of it.

I tried the photography that combined a magnifying glass with #extrabokeh on that day. My camera bag becomes bigger.
By the way, the pictures with the magnifying glass, I named it #glassporthole.
On March 31, 2015, it is Shinjuku, the Roppongi area at Nerima government office.
