!!*Contains Hidden Watermarks"!!

 

Why? Recently I found many of my images on illegal print sites, that´s why I deemed it necessary to include watermarks in places where they can´t get cloned out easily.

I love steel structures and this is one of the most beautiful ones I found so far, especially with the evening light striking it from the side.

An awesome piece of work.

Casa Milà, better known as La Pedrera, meaning the 'The Quarry', is a building designed by the Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí and built during the years 1906–1912. It is located at 92, Passeig de Gràcia (passeig is Catalan for promenade) in the Eixample district of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

It was a controversial design at the time for the bold forms of the undulating stone facade and wrought iron decoration of the balconies and windows, designed largely by Josep Maria Jujol, who also created some of the plaster ceilings.

Architecturally it is considered an innovative work for its steel structure and curtain walls – the façade is self-supporting. Other innovative elements were the construction of underground car parking and separate lifts and stairs for the owners and their servants.

In 1984, it was declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO. The building is made open to the public by the CatalunyaCaixa Foundation, which manages the various exhibitions and activities and visits to the interior and roof.

Tresspassing which carries a $35 fine and another ticket for Creating A Hazardous Condition $75. Go Figure!!! I ask is the picture worth $110?

  

A perspective on La Grande Roue de Montreal in the Old Port of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

 

As the tallest ferris wheel in Canada, it was opened to the public on September 1, 2017, to celebrate the city of Montreal's 375th anniversary.

 

Its construction cost $28,000,000 CDN and was paid by private investors.

 

It is a Ferris wheel model WS60 (White Series 60 metres) from the Dutch Wheels Company (Vekoma Group) with a height of 60 metres (200 feet) and comprised of 42 passenger units, each of which can fit 8 persons for a total capacity of 336 passengers. A ride last 20 minutes.

They've laid the last main steelwork across Sheffield just north of Roscoe. The Brown Line trains today (January 30) were single tracking from just east of Southport, which provides an unusual sight, and a bit of humor.

[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.

Mid Section of the London Eye wheel shows the massive architecture, with a massive steel frame.

London Eye is one of the most visited tourist attractions in the the whole United Kingdom, visited by more than 3 million people annually. It is a Ferris wheel, with a total height of 135 meters from the ground, with the wheel having a diameter of 120 meters. It set the ground for the construction of such tall Ferris wheel as tourist attractions, being the tallest such Ferris Wheel (until being surpassed by the 2 Asian based Ferris wheels - the Star of Nanchang and the Singapore Flyer - with the Singapore Flyer having a total height of 165 meters). When it was constructed, it provided the highest viewing point in London, until a higher observation point was created in another building, The Shard.

The London Eye is located on the southern banks of the Thames, located near to Jubilee Gardens, and between the Hungerford Bridge and the Westminster Bridge on the Thames. The London Eye is supported by a A-Frame on one of its sides, different from the support structures of the other high Ferris Wheels. Given its location, the river played a central part during construction. Sections of the wheel were assembled in place and then the whole structure was slowly moved up from the horizontal position to its current vertical position. The London Eye provides a total of 32 air-conditioned capsules, and each capsule holds 25 people (although capsules can be booked for special purposes, most often done on Valentine's Day where couples can book an entire capsule). The entire rotation of the wheel takes 30 minutes.

The London Eye was inaugrated in December 1999, and opened to the public in March 2000 (after it got over some initial technical problems). The London Eye is accessible through the closed London Underground station of Waterloo. For those visiting, boat rides on the River Thames also start from nearby.

The inspiration for the title comes from the game of the same name. It is available for download as a freeware (you'll also need the ScummVM interface for compatibility, also available there).

If you're into hand-drawn point'n'click adventure games (like the Monkey Island series, Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, Day of the Tentacle, Sam&Max etc.) there's a good cance you'll like this one too.

Beneath a Steel Sky features the work of comic artist Dave Gibbons, and is set in a dystopic cyber-punk future in Australia (hence the funny accent in the voice acting) with Orwellian overtones.

A major plus are the sometimes hidden, but completely cheesy jokes.

 

Btw. could someone please explain to me why the sky has this strange tone? I haven't used any filters and didn't tweak it during the editing either.
