An inbound New Haven Line train crosses the Saugatuck River Railroad Bridge in Westport, CT. The bridge features a pedestrian walkway, which affords some very neat views of the infrastructure and trains. Note here how the employee crossing on the bridge is supported by old rail sections!

Atout (previously known as Cypria, Driever, and Miltiadis Junior III) (IMO: 9354648) is a container type-ship registered and sailing under the flag of Libera.

The Temple was a monumental structure; it measured 120 m in length and 50 m across. The sixty massive columns surrounding the cella were well over 2 m in diameter and more than 21 m high. The Temple was topped with the largest Corinthian capitals ever sculpted, one of which, 2.5 metres in height, 1.9 metres in diameter and 20 tons in weight, was unearthed in 2013.
In AD 124, the city of Cyzicus was granted the role of neokoros, temple warden of the imperial cult. The people of Cyzicus declared Hadrian the 13th Olympian god.
The Byzantine chronicler John Malalas called the Temple of Hadrian at Cyzicus “a very large temple, one of the wonders" with a very large bust of Hadrian on the roof and a marble stele inscribed "of Divine Hadrian". (Malalas, Chronography Bks 1-7, 10-18)
Cassius Dio called it “the largest and most beautiful of all temples, writing that “its columns were four cubits in thickness and fifty cubits in height" writing that "in general, the details were more to be wondered at than praised.” (epit. 70.4.1–2).

Detail of a blue metal building at the Mare Island Naval Ship Yard.
I was at the historic Mare Island Naval Ship Yard to spend the evening doing night photography with my friends from the original Nocturnes group, and I had arrived well before sunset. After meeting up in the Mare Island Museum for pizza and conversation we realized that the end of the day was coming. I went outside about a half hour before sunset, and I thought of some old industrial buildings that I had passed on the way in. Instead of staying where I was and starting my typical routine of wandering on foot with my gear I decided to take short drive back to those buildings and see if I could make a few quick photographs in the end-of-day light.
I soon arrived and made a few photographs in golden hour light, but the sun quickly dropped below the horizon and I was left with that post-sunset glow. This light can be quite warm if clouds reflect some of the remaining red, yellow, and orange tones of sunset, but if the sky is clear what remains is the intense blue of early twilight. The latter light is what evolved, and I soon moved back to this unusual structure whose blue paint's color was even more intensified by this twilight illumination.

Modern Sculpture Installations Placed Along the Lincolnshire Coast.
"Structures on the Edge is about artists responding to isolated places along the coast and coming up with ideas to make them more interesting."(Quote from Lincs County Council)
I ask - WHY IS ISOLATED NATURE NOT INTERESTING in it's self.
If councils feel the need to direct limited funds at so called art installations why can they not put them in urban areas that have already had their nature destroyed. (Sorry rant over)

This historic structure is in the heart of Farningham Village in Kent. It is thought to be a cattle screen.
The entire structure is quite impressive. The choice of red for a "Golden Gate" was also an interesting choice but makes sense as you can clearly make it out on a cloudy and foggy day!
Hi there...This steel structure is a part of old power station called Suvilahti in Helsinki,Finland...
