I'm not sure what its actual purpose was, since if there was a plaque, it was covered with snow. But looking through the viewing frustum at the right, the white plate seems to reduce the buildings to flat, geometric shapes.
Update: This is "Viewing Station" by Richard Galpin. It's derived from his work physically manipulating photographic prints.
Community health worker Stephen Omollo (L) dispenses doses of setamol syrup – which helps to reduce fever – for Julius Ochieng, who is being held by his mother Carolyne Anyango. The boy has been presenting with a fever, but tested negative for malaria. All febrile children under the age of five are immediately tested for malaria by community health workers, enabling life-saving drugs to be administered at the earliest possible moment (Credit: Zoe Flood).

The natural woman at the beginning of the twenty-first century is on the brink of extinction. Daily we are bombarded with images of women pumped up, trained, reduced, bleached, waxed, sculpted, covered up, uncovered, perfected, remodeled, recolored.
Make a pact with yourself. Dare to be different and construct your own definition of beauty. Don't buy into 'the look'.
Real, natural beauty never goes out of fashion.

Shaping new land, maintaining waterways, and protecting shorelines – Compass Global Pvt Ltd uses Watermaster in the Maldives for dredging, land reclamation, construction, and erosion control. This work helps sustain islands, support local communities, and develop tourism that drives the economy.
By using one multipurpose Watermaster instead of several single-purpose machines, they reduce environmental impact, lower costs, and shorten project timelines. When storms approach, the amphibious Watermaster can walk out of the water and park safely on shore – no crane needed.
Interested in applying Watermaster’s capabilities to your coastaldevelopment projects? Email us for a presentation: watermaster@watermaster.fi
The stepback geometry of the 110-story tower was developed in response to the interior space requirements of Sears, Roebuck and Company. The configuration incorporates the unusually large office floors necessary to Sears' operation along with a variety of smaller floors. The building plan consists of nine 75 x 75 foot column-free squares at the base. Floor sizes are then reduced by eliminating 75 x 75 foot increments at varying levels as the tower rises. A system of double-deck express elevators provides effective vertical transportation, carrying passengers to either of two skylobbies where transfer to single local elevators serving individual floors occurs. -from Bruce Graham
The Watchman is a cardiac implant that covers / closes off the left atrial appendage to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with non-valvular Afib (atrial fibrillation). It is a surgical alternative to anti-coagulation with medication. Bleeding is a major adverse event of blood thinners which are prominent in the elderly. With this device, patients with Afib can stop taking their anti-coagulation thereby reducing the risk of bleeding while still lowering their risk of stroke.
The left atrial appendage is an area of lower flow that does not contribute as much work to the function of the heart. Blood can start to form clots within this space due to situations such as Afib which further impairs the contractility and flow within the atria. By closing off this atrial appendage, less clots can form in the heart which means less potential for a clot to break off and travel to the brain leading to a stroke.
A minimally invasive procedure where access to the heart is gained via catheters running through veins is used to place this device. Both fluoroscopy and TEE (transesophageal echocardigraphy) is used for visualization during deployment. The device has a self-expanding metal mesh structure that is made from nitinol, an allow of nickel & titanium which exhibits shape memory and superelasticity, to allow for compact delivery through the veins to the heart before it is deployed. On the metal mesh is a porous covering of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) knit fabric which allows for the heart to grow over and fully occlude the atrial appendage. This is the second major revision of the device, the Watchman FLX, which allows for improvements such as partial & full recapture, decreased minimum LAA depth required, two rows of 18 J hook anchors, and a fully closed blunt distal end.
Ignore the small hole... This is a heavily-used demo device.

This is an oldie I just found whilst spring-cleaning my hard drive. I was taking these shots at Navigation Road metro station when I glanced over my shoulder and saw this amazing huge moon. I swung the tripod round immediately, flipped the camera on its side, and managed to get this just as a car went back over the speed bumps...
