To those who know my photo stream, yes I've posted these before but now that I'm editing on a color accurate monitor I'm revisiting many of my shots.
It's fitting that these are going up now since I just took a trip to Glenwood. Unfortunately it's now a full on construction site. Not up for risking an expensive ticket or possible arrest, so now I have to find a new(ha) abandoned place to photograph.
To all of us who have gone here to explore I feel your pain that this is no longer an option for us. Treasure your photos and memories because these spots are slowly vanishing to renovation or demolition.

EPCOR Tower is an office tower currently under construction in downtown Edmonton, Alberta, Canada that is part of the Station Lands project. The tower is capped by two spires that top out at 137.3 m and these capped with four flagpoles each. When flagpoles are taken into account, it is currently the tallest building in Edmonton. However, at 146 meters (479 ft), Manulife Place remains the tallest structure.

This is one of my husband's golf clubs. Some golfers believe that Power Bilt gives the extra power to make the ball fly farther.
The name on the club is not as clear as I had hoped but I was rushing because it is almost time to leave for work.
In the myriad precarious situations in which we find ourselves in this profession, we must often use not only our intelligence and wit, but also our strength. We must frequently rely on our own power and on the power of our equipment. For those reasons, your assignment (should you choose to accept it) is POWER.
As always: Strive to work with the same degree of creativity that we've come to expect from you. If not, you may be required to relinquish any power you currently possess as a special agent.
Ready? For this assignment, please compose, shoot, and submit your best representation of POWER. You have 24 hours. No more. No less. Post up to two of your best examples of photographs representing the mission assignment by the deadline: Noon CST; Tuesday, July 8, 2008.
To my ODC friends, thousand apologies for disappearing from the scene...partly it was the pathetic internet connection which wouldnt open any pic on flickr, and partly lot of running around that kept me away from your photostreams.
Sorted though and so will be more regular. cheers!

July 5, 2018 - Hellisheidi Power Plant "The third-largest geothermal power station in the world, Hellisheidi is a state-of-the-art facility run on sustainable methods. This site is of interest to travelers because along with Iceland's other geothermal station at Nesjavellir, Hellisheidi provides 30 percent of the island's total electricity and hot water. Often visited on adventurous mountain biking or jeep tours through southern Iceland, the station creates electricity through the constant geothermal activity that takes place way below the ground, caused by the shifting of the tectonic plates between North America and Europe.
The power station's multimedia energy exhibition showcases ways of harvesting green energy and highlights geothermal sources around the world. Surrounding the power station are raw Icelandic landscapes, hot springs and rivers warm enough to swim in, as well as more than 60 miles (100 km) of hiking trails." Previous text from www.viator.com
