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.
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.

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 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.

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 :)

This historic bridge was engineered by James Dredge in 1854. It was used by traffic until 1932. It now serves as a viewpoint for the River Oich and is right beside the Caledonian Canal. This is a nice place to stop between Fort Augustus and Invergarry.

One World Trade Center (also known as 1 World Trade Center, One WTC and 1 WTC; the current building was dubbed the "Freedom Tower" during initial basework) refers to the main building of the new World Trade Center complex in Lower Manhattan, New York City. It is the tallest skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere, and the fourth-tallest in the world. The 104-story supertall structure shares a numeric name with the northern Twin Tower of the original World Trade Center, which was destroyed in the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. The new skyscraper stands on the northwest corner of the 16-acre (6.5 ha) World Trade Center site, on the site of the original 6 World Trade Center. The building is bordered by West Street to the west, Vesey Street to the north, Fulton Street to the south, and Washington Street to the east.
Construction of below-ground utility relocations, footings, and foundations for the new building began on April 27, 2006. On March 30, 2009, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey confirmed that the building would be officially known by its legal name of "One World Trade Center", rather than its colloquial name of "Freedom Tower". The building is 104 standard floors high, but the tower has only 94 actual stories.
One World Trade Center became the tallest structure in New York City on April 30, 2012, when it surpassed the height of the Empire State Building. The tower's steel structure was topped out on August 30, 2012. On May 10, 2013, the final component of the skyscraper's spire was installed, making the building, including its spire, reach a total height of 1,776 feet (541 m). Its height in feet is a deliberate reference to the year when the United States Declaration of Independence was signed. The building opened on November 3, 2014. The new World Trade Center complex will initially include three other high-rise office buildings, which will be built along Greenwich Street, and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, located just south of One World Trade Center, where the original Twin Towers stood. The construction of the new building is part of an effort to memorialize and rebuild following the destruction of the original World Trade Center complex.
The top floor of One World Trade Center is 1,368 feet (417 m) above ground level, along with a 33 ft 4 in (10.16 m) parapet; this is identical to the roof height of the original One World Trade Center. The tower's antenna/spire brings it to a pinnacle height of 1,776 feet (541 m), a figure intended to symbolize the year 1776, when the United States Declaration of Independence was signed. If the antenna is included in the building's height, as stated by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), One World Trade Center surpasses the height of Taipei 101 (1,671-foot (509 m)), is the world's tallest all-office building, and the fourth-tallest skyscraper in the world, behind the Burj Khalifa, Abraj Al Bait, and Shanghai Tower.
One World Trade Center is the second-tallest freestanding structure in the Western Hemisphere, as the CN Tower in Toronto exceeds 1 WTC's pinnacle height by approximately 12 m (39.4 ft). The Chicago Spire, with a planned height of 2,000 feet (610 m), was expected to exceed the height of One World Trade Center, but its construction was canceled due to financial difficulties in 2009.

Morey's Adventure Pier is one of the three Morey's Piers along the Wildwood, New Jersey Boardwalk. Adventure Pier is located at Spencer Ave and the Boardwalk. This is a night photo of the "Great White" (Out and Back) Wooden (style) Roller Coaster installed by "Custom Coasters International" in 1996, featuring "Philadelphia Toboggan Company" Trains.
The Coaster Structure is Steel, but it is built to look and feel like a Wooden Roller Coaster.
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.

I saw nine men working on a steel structure when I was on my way home. I quickly took out my camera and took this interesting shot!
Esso gas station, Boulevard René Lévesque, on Nuns' island, Montreal @ night.
design by mies van der rohe, 1969
simply awesome.
for total beinahe nichts: on black
[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.

After turning, with all the wheels from the SPMT turned, the steelstructured is brought to its place.
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
This massive 8 acre building has been de-skinned in recent years allowing the impressive framework to be exposed.

In the heart of Allegheny National Forest, Pennsylvania, lies a captivating scene of rustic wood and timeless steel. A narrow wooden walking bridge spans a gentle stream, surrounded by vibrant green vegetation, embracing the serene essence of nature. As the bridge guides the viewer’s gaze, it leads to the remnants of the once mighty Kinzua Viaduct, a historic landmark and a testament to human ingenuity.
The Kinzua Viaduct, also known as Kinzua Bridge, was once an engineering marvel, showcasing the strength and determination of American industry. Unfortunately, a powerful tornado in 2003 tore through the area, causing significant damage to the steel trestle structure. Today, the remaining sections of the bridge serve as a reminder of its former glory, standing tall against the backdrop of a dramatic sky, casting an air of mystery over the picturesque landscape.
Located within the Kinzua Bridge State Park, this breathtaking setting attracts nature enthusiasts, hikers, and photographers like Duncan Rawlinson. The juxtaposition of the wooden bridge’s simplicity and the steel viaduct’s grandiosity creates an environmental contrast that encapsulates the intersection of nature and human ambition.
The Kinzua Gorge offers visitors an opportunity for outdoor exploration and adventure. The observation platform on the Kinzua Skywalk provides a unique vantage point for admiring the gorge’s views and fall foliage. As the trail meanders through the forest, it offers a tranquil escape into the majestic beauty of the Pennsylvanian wilderness.
Experience the awe-inspiring fusion of natural beauty and historic engineering in this timeless American landscape. Whether you’re seeking an outdoor adventure or simply appreciate the serene elegance of nature, the Kinzua Gorge will surely leave a lasting impression.
