Hit 'L' to view on large.
This place was an abandoned blast furnace that had a full barrier and walkway around it and was a tourist attraction up to a certain time of day. It also had powerful coloured lights all over it to show off the structure and its internals but we decided to visit outside normal hours and climb in. We accessed the attraction but only so far as some of the levels were very rusty. Martin stayed outside and photographed the perimeter and unfortunately fell and broke his camera.

Zoo Atlanta Wednesday, May 4
Training is a very valuable tool that we use with the pandas to accomplish many tasks. One behavior that we have trained with Lun Lun is to have her get her cub and bring him/her with her when shifting to a different part of the building. It is quite neat to watch her understand the command and execute the behavior. We first open a shift door and ask both Lun Lun and Po to shift. This will help Po learn what the shifting command means as he grows. Normally Lun Lun comes right in, whereas Po continues to sleep, usually on the climbing structure. Next, we give Lun Lun the command to bring the cub in with her and she goes into action. First, she vocalizes many times and walks under his resting spot to get him to follow her. If he does not follow, she will climb up and get him. Once he is on the ground, he will fall in line and shift with her. Hopefully, Po will catch on quickly and learn to shift without Lun Lun’s assistance.

After France surrendered, Kucera made his way to England and joined the RAF. Posted to 238 Squadron, he destroyed 3 more enemy aircraft during the Battle of Britain. In May 1941 Kucera was posted to 313 (Czech) Squadron, flying operationally until June 1943.
Returning to operations with 544 Squadron in 1944, he flew a Mosquito on reconnaissance missions until 1945.
After the war Kucera returned to Czechoslovakia.

On March 6, 2017, FDNY launched its first ever tethered drone to respond to a fire in a 6-story building on Crotona Park North in the Bronx.
The $85,000 FDNY tethered drone weighs 8 pounds and incorporates both a high-definition camera and infrared camera. These capabilities allow the drone to transmit live images of a fire operation to the Chief in charge of the incident. The drone’s camera allows Chiefs at the command post to see where Firefighters are operating on the roof of a building and to make decisions to help suppress the fire and keep FDNY members safe. The image is fed directly to the Incident Commander and is also shared with senior decision makers in the Fire Department through the FDNY Operations Center.
"We deployed the drone for the first time in support of a 4th alarm fire in the Bronx,” says FDNY Director of FDNY Operations Center, Timothy Herlocker. “We were able to get a good view of the roof, which allowed the Incident Commander on the ground to view the Firefighters as they were conducting roof operations, venting the roof and putting water on the fire."
“This fire was helped by our drone, said Deputy Assistant Chief Dan Donoghue, the incident commander at the 4th alarm fire. “The roof started to fail and we had a lot of great radio reports but that’s only verbal, so with the drone we had good visual pictures and it really helped us make decisions to put this fire out and keep our members safe.”
The FDNY drone is tethered using a small cable that carries electricity up to the device, which gives the drone an unlimited flight time. The drone can stay aloft for as long as necessary to keep an aerial view on the target. All controls, data, and power transmit back and forth through the tether preventing interference with radio frequency signals. The drone is piloted by specially trained FDNY Firefighters from the Department’s Command Tactical Unit. The Department currently has three drones in its fleet to deploy as needed.
“This new technology is going to make a positive impact in our fire operations,” said Fire Commissioner Daniel A. Nigro. “The drone’s camera gives our Chiefs a view they never had before. It’s an important tool that will make our members, and the people we protect, even safer.”
FDNY works closely with the FAA to ensure the drone operates safely and adheres to all rules and policies regarding airspace in New York City. The Fire Department Operations Center contacts the FAA prior to flying the drone for permission to deploy at night, or into FAA Class B Air Space - the FAA’s most restricted air space. Approval takes approximately ten minutes and takes place while the drone and its operators are responding to a fire.

A 3 shot composite at 47 mm¹
¹ 47 mm is within the normal focal length range for a full frame 35 mm body. The reason I chose a focal length close to 50 was that once you get into "wide angle" territory composite images start to become very difficult to merge together due to all the curvy distortions you get when working under 50 mm.
And merging images becomes much easier when you get into telephoto territory! Though if you're shooting live critters that tend to move between shots that's something you need to consider, and why when working on composite captures of wild critters it's a good idea to capture their head and as much of their body as you can in the first capture, and then make the other captures (excluding the head) since that's the body part that tends to move when they hear the camera noise of the first capture.
