I took this photograph on May 9, 1998, while on vacation on Sanibel Island, Florida.
Sanibel Beach Lighthouse is located in Lighthouse Beach Park on Sanibel Island in Lee County, Florida. The Address is 112 Periwinkle Way, Sanibel, Florida. The Lighthouse is directly across San Carlos Bay from Fort Meyers Beach, Fort Meyers, FL.
Disclaimer: This photograph was taken in May 1998 with my Minolta Maxxim 5000 35 mm SLR with Color Print Film, when I was just learning photograph, so it is very soft & grainy. I scanned the Negative, and used Photoshop Elements™ to correct the Exposure and Saturation to generate the Digital Digital Image, presented here on flickr™.
Louis Henry Sullivan (1856-1924) and his firm of Adler & Sullivan were the architects for the Guaranty Building (also known as the Prudential Building) in Buffalo, New York; completed in 1895, this early steel skyscraper clad in terra cotta, the superbly executed decoration does not obscure the clarity of expression of the structural elements of this landmark early modern design
Esso gas station, Boulevard René Lévesque, on Nuns' island, Montreal.
design by mies van der rohe, 1969.
as if nothing has happened in 30 years...
edit 2009: after 40 years the most beautiful gasstation in the world is now closed :-(
edit 2012: the building saved and turned into La Station, a community centre.
update 2013: photo published in the Czech magazine ERA21 ("Mise za Miese", 2013 #01), completely dedicated to Mies van der Rohe.

From 2011, remembrance of spring past- -sunny, warm, and inviting; spring 2014, cold, wet, and dreary. Sunset at the Sault Canal and the International Railroad Swing Bridge, the Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge, and the Sault Canal Emergency Swing Dam Bridge. The Sault Canal opened in 1895 as a ‘Canadian‘ alternative to the nearby American Soo Locks. Closed in 1987 due to a lock wall collapse, the canal was reconstructed and reopened for recreational boating use in 1998. The Canal is operated as a National Historic Site by Parks Canada: when it opened, it was the world’s first to be operated electrically, and it was the world’s longest lock- -the lock was 274 metres / 899 feet long and 18 metres / 59 feet wide.
The International Railroad Swing Bridge was built in 1895 by the Dominion Bridge Company of Canada based upon a Baltimore truss design. The bridge features extensive v-lacing and lattice for support. The bridge was originally a pin connected structure; however, the bridge has been altered in the past with additional steel bolted on to increase rigidity.
The Sault Ste. Marie International Bridge is a 4.5 kilometer / 2.8 mile long metal Cantilever (suspended deck) Warren Through Truss two lane bridge with a two span arch over the American Soo Locks and a single span arch over the Canadian Sault Canal. It was designed by the New York architectural firm of Steinman, Boynton, Gronquist and London; the bridge opened October 1962.
The Emergency Swing Bridge Dam was built in 1896, entirely of steel, by the Dominion Bridge Company. The structure is the last of its kind in the world: a moveable bridge like dam, that swings across a canal, lowers its wickets and shutters into the canal, reducing the flow of water, enabling repairs to a damaged lock to be made. The Swing Bridge Dam features a Baltimore style truss configuration with substantial v-lacing and lattice work, pinned and riveted connections.

View from the The Hague City Hall. (wish I had my Sony back from repair)
A great architectural building, with free entrance, not only to the public part, but you can enter all 11 floors were e.g. offices are located, and photograph as long as you want.
I had a wonderful day with my sister; shopping, lunching, laughing, and photographing!

The Zeche Zollern / Zollern coal mine was the first industrial complex in Germany to be officially protected and preserved as a historic monument. Since 1969 the site and the structures have been completely restored. Now they are operated as an industrial museum. The mine has been built between 1898 and 1904. It was designed as an exemplary complex of that time. The ground plan was conceived to resemble a castle-like pattern with three wings and an open space with trees in the center.
I took these images with a Nikon F3 camera, PC-Nikkor 2.8/35mm lens, and Ilford XP2 super.
Close up of the supporting structure behind the Lovell Radio Telescope at the Jodrell Bank Observatory in Cheshire.
When you visit the site and stand close to this you can’t help but stare in awe at the sheer scale of the Telescope dish and the supporting structure behind it. The two main altitude bearings are made from two 15” gun turret bearings from the World War II battleships HMS Revenge and Royal Sovereign.
I’d love to have been present in the fifties when Sir Bernard Lovell slapped the plans on the table for this one. If only to amend them with the foot note “ Ensure all parts are present before assembly”.
April 30, 2022 - Konica Minolta on Kleine-Gartmanplantsoen. I love how the steel supports for the sign are attached on the side of the building into the floor line. Amsterdam, Netherlands.

I remember on Sundays; my mother would take me over to shop on 13th Ave (Boro Park) cause of the "Blue Laws" and we'd pass these groups of older Italian men playing Bocce Ball in the dirt under the cool shade of the L .
And once in a great while I'd see the train that ran on street level. My mother said it delivered the bananas from the boat.
I never found out if she was pulling my leg or what..
I miss dem ghosts.

Shot from Leeds Road, you can see a large chunk of the steel structure of the Gasometre has been demolished, also you can see the molten metal from the Oxy Acetylene Cutting Torch spraying everywhere.

Some waterworks around the premise of Tokyo Dome. I love how the colorful lights from the illumination, steel structures, and water reflection play around in the picture. Include also my friend Yayu in the background :)
A while ago I got a Walimex Pro 8 mm Fisheye lens. Today I took it for a few test shots with my Canon 60D.
The framework of a power pole is one of them.
