Joseph Adamson and Co at Hyde were boilermakers. The company started in partnership by Joseph Adamson and Henry Booth in 1874. The works which continued making boilers to the 1960s and beyond are now a small industrial estate.

Some photographs take a little more effort than others. This is one of them.
Back in 2012, I photographed one of Osaka’s more unusual sights from a distance: the Hanshin Expressway (Ikeda Route), where an exit ramp passes directly through a building. It’s one of those pieces of urban engineering that feels almost impossible until you see it with your own eyes.
For this trip, I wanted to revisit the location, but with a different perspective. That meant spending quite some time researching possible vantage points and figuring out how I could get closer to the structure while maintaining a composition that showed just how remarkable it really is.
Eventually, I found my way into an office building across the street. The view was exactly what I had been looking for, but the conditions were far from ideal. The windows were covered in dirt and grime, leaving only a small clean section near the very top. Reaching it required some creative maneuvering and an almost impossible shooting position, balancing both camera and tripod in a way that probably looked rather ridiculous to anyone watching.
Despite the challenges, I'm quite pleased with the result. Sometimes photography is less about perfect conditions and more about persistence. Finding a way to make an image despite the obstacles often makes the final photograph all the more rewarding.

Architects James Gowan and James Stirling. My new favourite building (for the moment)! Great reflections in the recently renovated engineering block roof glazing. The slightly blotchy effect is due to the translucent fibreglass infill to the glazing units, all to match the original installation.
UP Engineering Special, running under Symbol PJCPR2 crosses over the Meramec River in Sherman, MO running on Track 1 of the UP Jefferson City Sub near MP 24 on June 14, 2018.
My day had started with dropping my youngest daughter at Vashon High School to take the ACT. I figured I'd bop over to Luther and see what showed up, maybe head over to Venice or Madison for a bit. Word came along about this Special being called out of Jefferson City and already to Gasconade by the time word got to me. I hopped on 70, zoomed through downtown STL, then blasted out I-44 to get to the best EB shot I could think of in the area. The trip took about 45 minutes and I got the Sherman with about 15 min to spare. Quite the haul for what would turn out to be the only decent catch I got of it.

With the sun dipping in and out, Colas Rail Class 56 56105 leads 56096 on 6C30 12.00 Kilburn Up and Down Goods Loop - Crewe Basford Hall approaching Lichfield Trent Valley
Engineering work was taking place between Harrogate and Leeds on 21st June 2020. Here, Colas class 70/8 no. 70810 heads a ballast train, the 14.08 from Doncaster Belmont to Harrogate, entering the single line section at Poppleton.

Unfortunately I don't have accesss to my bricks right now, so it'll be digital fiddling only :(

This is an engineering unit with the capcity of emergency field repairs and extractions, it is seen as a sign of hope, and even if is not armed for heavy combat, the pilots skills make up for it.
It is piloted by the blademasters pilot's teacher, one of the last survivors of an ancient race, masters of ancient technology and martial arts.
This mech is based on evas, and I liked the idea of shoulder mounted toolbox instead of being a weapon holder, the fingers attach the tools for a great mad scientist look, and the back kits deploys for extra parts and processing power.
this is the only mech for this week sadly, I'm working on 2 more rigth now, might me done for next week hopefully.
So what do you think?
During a five year period, starting 01/01/17, I plan to take 365 "Revealing Detail" photographs covering every date in the year. The detais through these drill holes were in a disused factory unit in East Boldon, County Durham (now Tyne and Wear).

To boldly go where no "fan" has gone before... you need a good warp and of course a clean and well maintained engineering room. So here's Scotty's kingdom where everything is possible even fixing the core with an old spoon ;D
I've taken a few pics of my bike since I've had it. Unfortunately I felt like none them captured it in a way where its beauty can truely be appriciated. Nothing like a little mechine glamour every now and then.

Another view of my Engineering Section playset.
I forgot to mention that is the second version of TOS engineering room, the first one that appears in the first episode had no stairs and no second level.
was on my way to work this morning, i noticed this couple building their house ...
the place seemed to me little risky, if the water goes high...but what do i know?! They know better...
the shot is simple, i didn't like to disturb them and get closer...but i was wondering what are those genes telling these animals what to build how to build where to build??? I was amazed by the ability of the swan picking up reed and trying to cut others ...nature is amazing!

This one's for the car fans. Though I suspect only the rotary fans will fully appreciate this one.
This is the front yard of Fujita Engineering, one of the most renowned rotary workshops in Japan (if not the world). In the foreground is one of their famous FD RX-7s, behind, an FC, and a Cosmo.
In case you're wondering, rotary refers to the type of engine (not the piston type found in 99.99% of cars in the world), not a group of networking businessmen.
