Seattle Steam was founded in 1893. It owns 18 miles of underground pipes in Seattle to provide heat to about 175 businesses in downtown, Capital Hill and First Hill. Its major customers are Virginia Mason Medical Center, Harborview Medical Center, and Swedish Medical Center.
Cotton Spinning Mill Oberwaltersdorf (1852) - The abandoned mill has been converted into flats, but an old steam engine remained in one of the buildings, the wheel's diameter is 6m.
Hot pools and steaming ground are found near the erupting spring in the Gunnuhver Group at the Gunnuhver Thermal Area on the Reykjanes Peninsula, Iceland. The development of a Geothermal power plant in 2006 effected the hydrothermal features. Steaming of the ground at Reykjanes increased markedly as a consequence of pressure drawdown in the geothermal reservoir after exploitation. Some boreholes drilled during development became steam vents or mud pools.

Although this picture is a flight of imagination, it is quite possible that in the early part of the 20th century steam tractors like this worked the roads and fields around Stanley. The Nut at Stanley provides an interesting backdrop for some of the standout attractions at Sheffield's Steamfest, which is usually held in March every year in the shadows of Mount Roland.
Steampunk insired, obviously.
Mostly just trying my hand at a couple of different things in photoshop. Not my strongest suit but, I'll get there.
This is the last in my series of smiles for the Kreative People Treat This challenge. The source image is used twice, once to make the 'sun' in the sky and once to colour the foreground. We came across the trains steaming into a station somewhere in Wales whilst on holiday a while back. Making smiley pictures has been a fun distraction.

14 hours in a Hide waiting for the bears, wolves and other animals to come. No animal came. -.-
But at least, the view from the hide was amazing, and the light was just perfect. This picture is taken at 4 am, and the whole forest was covered with steam from the ponds.

Despite the fact the age of steam is long past, it is still common to speak of ships "steaming past". In the same way we refer to an earlier era when we say we are going "sailing" on a ship.
The motion blur on this photograph actually allows us to make a calculation of the speed of the "Spirit of Tasmania I" as it moves past us in the Mersey River. To clarify what I said yesterday, it is important to get everything else in sharp relief so that the only blur we see is the movement of the ship. So I've done some calculations.
The "Spirit of Tasmania I" is 194.33m long (637ft 7in). It is possible to see a single light that appears as a bar representing the distance travelled in the time of exposure. That's the simple formula. The one obvious example is the green light on the top starboard deck. [In the next photograph you will see that this is indeed a single point of green light.] My rough estimate is that this bar represents about 6m. Now given the exposure time here is 0.6 of a second, that equates to 10m per second or 36km/h (19.4 knots). From the river bank it looks even faster, but that speed sounds about right, as the ship slows to make its way into the narrow channel.
