Laboratory 3 (National Trust building F2) built between 1955 and 1958, was the climatic testing lab comprising two elements, the laboratory itself and the Condense Pump House to the east. Its function was to either warm or chill a weapon to simulate the variations of temperature that it might face in service. It is constructed from reinforced concrete with a barrel vaulted roof and entered from its south side through a concrete canopy, and whose southern wall was revetted with shingle. To manoeuvre the heavy test objects into position there was a hoist mounted on a beam secured to the underside of the canopy and roof of the main chamber, traces of its fittings may still be seen. Entry into the chamber was originally through double wooden doors, in common with the other earlier Laboratories security was strengthened by the addition of crude welded steel doors which may be post-AWRE features. At the top of these doors is a slot for the overhead lifting beam indicating that the doors were added while the building was operational. The interior comprises a large central chamber, 24.50m (80ft 5ins) by 6.0m (19ft 6in), and is divided into two sections. To the south was the preparation area and on its walls are the remains of electric conduits and small bore pipes for electric cabling. To the north was a rear insulated chamber 13.5m (44ft 4in) in length, which was separated from the preparation area by a cement covered expandomesh wall and a metal clad sliding door carried on an overhead rail. This slid into a corridor to the west that also gives access to a small switch room. The working area of the rear chamber measured 9.14m (30ft) by 3m (10ft) by 3m (10ft) and its floor set on four dwarf concrete walls was capable of supporting 6 tons. The temperature range that could be achieved varied between plus 60° to minus 60° centigrade, and humidity 20° on either side of the ambient, while undergoing thermal tests an object might also be subject to vibration.
Randi, Linda, Helena and I went to the top of Graakallen for what turned into a ladies' blue hour shoot (no guy was man enough to join us it seems ;-) ). We chose a day with a few clouds, hoping for an interesting sky, but we weren't lucky unfortunately. There was also a bitter-cold wind up on the exposed top of the mountain! Still, I enjoyed being out and watching night fall over the fjord and the city below us.
This is the entrance to the military complex at the top of the mountain - strictly forbidden, though they don't bother to put up, let alone close, a gate.

Cryogenic pipe supports, ranging in diameter from 6" to 38", were designed to support and insulate piping in an LNG receiving and regassification plant. The "cold shoe anchors" were designed for temperatures down to -260°F and a load range of 26,000 lb. to 210,000 lb. A combination of high density polyurethane foam (PUF) and Permali® was used for the insulation. The center stops that are welded to the process pipe were built from 304 stainless steel, and carbon steel was used for the remainder of the shoe.
Class 33/1 locomotive 33102 (D6513) is seen on arrival (empty coaching stock) at Kingsley and Froghall on the Churnet Valley Railway, ready for the first of two trains that day which would traverse the Caldon Low branch to it's present terminus at Ipstones.
The last time i was behind this locomotive it was at the head of Hertfordshire Railtours "The Wool Witch" on the 5th September 1992.
New to Hither Green as D6513 on 25/6/60 withdrawn from Eastleigh 11/92 now Preserved

Our annual "Get Away From The Cold" cruise was on NCL Getaway. We sailed to the western caribbean.
These viseow were taken with an SJCAM SJ4000 action camera which makes the process super simple.
Here is a link to our NCL Getaway videos all in one place....

Yeah...so, I realize that cutting off my nice thick beard last week has repercussions! Stopping for a few minutes this morning, I enjoyed the windbreak; my ears and cheeks were protesting, but my fingers were not any more: I no longer had much in the way of feeling in them.
Walked down town this morning. Can't believe I didn't take a camera!
Fortunately I had my phone in my pocket...
Finally monsoon has arrived. So i thought to do some indoor activity. I had this cold drink in my fridge, so was trying to do some product photography. I did some basic level PP on it. and here it is.
Suggesstions and advise are most welcome to such kind of photography.. It will help me to improve more.
