An analogue fire control computer, this one in no.2 turret. The range, angle, ship and target speed and course, etc, can be set using the handles round the side, with the readouts on top giving the angle and elevation of the guns. There was presumably a main fire control computer in the superstructure (maybe the one on the bridge?) and this would be a backup in case communications were severed or the main computer was destroyed.
Aside from the 6 gigantic cooling towers, these two relatively squat buildings are the only structures left standing at Thorpe Marsh Power Station. Unfortunately, access to the higher levels looked rather sketchy, so we were unable to gain a higher viewpoint of the surrounding area.
Fuji Velvia 100, cross processed in C41. The colour shift gives some interesting results. All the cross processed images in my photostream are unaltered, as they came out of the lab (unless they're monochrome!).
Nikon F5 & Nikkor 24-120mm AF-S f/3.5-5.6G on expired Fuji Velvia 100.
What Edradour produces in a year, Laphroaig produces in maybe a week, if that. The machinery looks far more large-scale production oriented, if not necessarily modern.
I think it´s just rooted in human nature. No matter how well things are by themselves we like to control them. I guess it's because it makes the illusion that we have something to say...
diggig out my old films. It´s one of my favourites, i don´t know why i didn´t ipload it before.. :P
Control Tower with an interesting shape - painted in National Colours and bearing the portraits of the Royal Family
This signalling control panel is 110 feet long and was the largest of it's type when introduced in 1979.
It is scheduled to close in the next few years.
As Duty Shift Manager, I took charge on the very first shift in July 1979. After spending many thousands of hours on duty there, and having the privilege of working with a fantastic team of men and women, I retired in 2003.
This composite image was taken by one of my best signalmen.
Thanks NB.
