View from the cable car going up the hill next to Brașov's Old Town. In the center of the image, the city's main square is visible with the old town hall, and to its left is the famous Black Church.
"El Cable Inglés", as it is known locally, was built around the 1900's and used for loading ore onto ships in the port of Almería, Andalucía.
historic cable car station in the south of stuttgart. been out there on a very cloudy day around christmas with a lot of boredom flowting thru the city.
This is a re-edit (cropping/orientation/saturation) of a much earlier photo that I always liked but just finally figured out what drew me to the image, and how better to draw those characteristics out.
a coincidence of a high flying plane and some power cables. Normally, interactions between planes and power cables are probably not recommended. This time it seemed to work.
The San Francisco cable car system is the world's last manually operated cable car system. An icon of San Francisco, the cable car system forms part of the intermodal urban transport network operated by the San Francisco Municipal Railway. Of the twenty-three lines established between 1873 and 1890, three remain (one of which combines parts of two earlier lines): two routes from downtown near Union Square to Fisherman's Wharf, and a third route along California Street. While the cable cars are used to a certain extent by commuters, the vast majority of their 7 million annual passengers are tourists. The cable cars are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
With the cable car of Complexo do Alemão Slum and the north zone of the city.
The name Complexo do Alemão (German Complex) its because in the 1920s a Polish immigrant called Leonard Kaczmarkiewicz acquired the land (a rural area in that time). He was referred by locals as the German (probably because he was blond with blue eyes) and soon the area became known as Morro do Alemão (German Mount). :-)

The cable-stayed Great River Bridge allowing US Route 34 to cross the Mississippi River at Burlington, Iowa. Not to be confused with the "Good River Bridge" if that even exists.
Hacia donde uno levante la mirada, siempre veremos una gran cantidad de cables de electricidad y telefono. El robo de electricidad es muy común en los barrios de gente muy pobre. Las autoridades (cual autoridad?) no hacen nada.
Wherever one looks up, we will always see a lot of electricity and telephone cables. Theft of electricity is very common in poor neighborhoods. The authorities (which authority?) Do nothing.

"Rosh HaNikra or Hanikra (Hebrew: ראש הנקרה, lit. "Head of the Grottos"; Arabic: رأس الناقورة, Ras an-Nakura) is a geologic formation in Israel, located on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea, in the Western Galilee. It is a white chalk cliff face which opens up into spectacular grottos."

Tucked into a corner of the Tanzawa Mountains overlooking the Southwestern Tokyo suburbs and Sagami Bay is the Oyama Kanko Cable Car. This little cable car railway serves the tiny community of Oyama at its base near Isehara, to the namesake Oyama Afuri Shrine at the summit some 1252 meters in elevation (4107 feet in British).
Here the Oyama Shrine bound cable car approaches Oyama-dera Station at the half way point, where it will also meet its counterpart going down. Though not exactly a high profile area to visit for tourists coming to Japan, the views and shrine at the top are absolutely stunning and are worthwhile!
