Here is a shot I was able to captured, while we were waiting at the traffic lights at Blackheath NSW Australia in the Blue Mountains.
We stopped at Tarana Railways Station, again on the way home. You can hear me breathing in the video, Sorry.

Early in the morning just before sunrise at the Amtrak station. The San Joaquins stop here on the route between Bakersfield and Oakland/Sacramento.

Trails from an airplane shortly after take off from Copenhagen Airport in Kastrup. Night shot taken last night from "Pynten" at Amager Strandpark. And boy, was it a cold wind last night...
The light on the clouds are citylights reflections from Copenhagen (foreground) and Malmö (background).
Got to play a bit more at this location, but it has to be a bit warmer (or less windy) next time:-)
The first traffic lights in continental Europe were erected at Potsdamer Platz in 1924.
It was the attempt to control the sheer volume of traffic passing through.
The traffic lights ( from Siemens ) were mounted on a five-sided 8m high tower designed by Jean Kramer, shipped over from the United States, and actually modelled on a similar one erected on Fifth Avenue in New York in 1922.
A solitary policeman sat in a small cabin at the top of the tower and switched the lights around manually.
Now, these times are gone, and the traffic lights now get switched automatically by a computer-system....
