This is one of these wonderful places for photographers. An incredible rock on the seashore on Asturias, Spain. The mask of Sauron.
Coal fired power plant, two blocks with 757 MW in total. One block now in demolition/deconstruction.
Abandoned power plant of a former steelworks - The housing of the largest and newest turbine there is painted blue, hence the name Blue Power Plant.
Escher Wyss+Oerlikon steam turbine, 75 MW.
El Águila real (Aquila chrysaetos), una de las rapaces más grandes de la península ibérica y de las que cuando la puedes observar a corta distancia muestra un aspecto de poder y fuerza. Momento que no se olvida nunca y produce esa admiración.
The Royal Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), one of the largest birds of prey in the Iberian peninsula and from which you can observe it at close range shows an aspect of power and strength. Moment that is never forgotten and produces that admiration.

This image is of the Power Plant on the University of Kansas campus. As the campus grew the number of buildings requiring heat and electricity called for increased production of energy. To meet these needs a new plant was built in 1922 at a cost of $290,000. The building was the fifth power plant constructed at KU, and similar in design to many public structures in the 1920's.
Since the mid 1950s the University has purchased electricity instead of producing it with steam. Water is converted to steam beneath the structure and sent through steam tunnels on campus, some dating to the 1880's.
A 252-foot smokestack, which stood for over sixty years, was replaced by two smaller stacks (seen in this photo) in 1987. The steam whistle remains, a KU tradition since 1912.
Union Pacific's M-ITPR was passing the now-closed Cloud Factory in Pleasant Prairie on a very cold winter morning.
Wisconsin Electric recently phased out this coal-fueled power plant since the war on coal was started several years ago.
UP's Chicago and North Western SD70ACe and a pair of SD40-2s made the unpleasant trek over snow-covered roads to this location worth it.
We string wires mounted on massive but spindly looking towers to transmit our power but the sun has to power to light an entire world. I sometimes feel that my generation (baby boomer) as a whole lack humility and do not understand that we are a part of nature not its master.

Just had enough time to get off this train at Crowcombe and walk up the line to take this shot as she sailed past towards Williton

Skógafoss is one of the largest and well known falls in Iceland, it's sheer power as it crashes over the sea cliffs has to be seen to be appreciated, if you walk anywhere near toward the bottom of it it's like being in an industrial power shower, and the noise is truly incredible.
The one downside of this place is such is its beauty it's can get very busy, during the day coaches are pulling in all the time with tourists eager to get their selfie sticks out and generally run all over the place like out of control ants. This was the case on this day, I was over here with a few friends and I simply couldn't get the shot I wanted due to rain and the aforementioned ant swarm... they all wanted to go and do a snow mobile tour over the glacier and were getting a bit impatient with my requests to spend a long time at each location which to be honest if you aren't a photographer I totally get! So I told them to leave me here for 5 hours while they went and did that and then come back and find me later....
5 hours may seem a long time but that's 5 hours I've got to get my shots and also to have a good explore of the area well past the top of the falls.
The time went in no time and I got several shots I liked with hardly anyone around (I've included a single 'ant' for scale here), plus some others in locations rarely shot way back along the River Skoga.
I can't believe how long ago this was now, and that I've never posted it up here.

The area around Dungenes Power Station is a Nature Reserve that is classed as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and is home to many rare and endangered species. An unusual feature of this reserve is the continuous crackling of the high voltage pylons that run overhead from Dungeness Power Station back inland. Today, the haze from the moist air and unusual heat make the pylons fade off in the distance. A little point worthy of note… The glass insulators on the left hand set of pylons are green, while the ones on the right are yellow.
