Wonderful structural, minimalist views of gas pipes outside of residences in Tel Aviv. These were all shapes and sizes and numbers of pipes. Generally a single larger pipe came up from the ground and spilt into multiple smaller pipes, connected with valves and meters, and then further pipes dissapeared into building walls.
Photo taken at the Santa Fe Railroad yards, 2003. This breaker box was part of a series in the secondary building of 4 huge structures. Built in the late 1800's and abandoned in the 1950's, the Rail Yard is a conglomoration of eerie stone and iron construction, towering walls of glass, and laticeworks of walkways nad stairs that lead up and up into darkness. Condemned and in some places quite dangerous to visit, the railyard is a cool trip for the expert or idiotic urban spelunker.
The Roanoke Star, perched up on Mill Mountain (it's a mountain, but it's also inside the city limits of Roanoke, VA).
You can go up there (there's a big viewing platform with an *awesome* view over the city - but that's another photo...) and you're right under this huge neon star, nearly 100 feet tall!

Caledonian Road Underground Station, 6 April 2023. It was built by the Great Northern, Piccadilly & Brompton Railway (GNP&BR) in December 1906 (by then part of the Underground Electric Railways of London, and eventually becoming the Piccadilly Line of the London Passenger Transport Board) and designed by Leslie Green, the UERL’s first Chief Architect from 1902 to 1907, when he became ill with TB, tragically dying in 1908 aged only 33.
Green was an early user of the American steel framed structure so that his two storey station buildings would be able to have offices or flats built on top at a later date – not achieved in all cases, as at Caledonian Road.
Green favoured a British Arts & Crafts style and wanted to adopt a corporate style for the UERL. The exterior of his stations therefore featured ox-blood glazed faience tiles and his ticket office green glazed tiles. His platform tunnels all had the name and signage in tiles and featured coloured geometric tile patterns unique to each station.
Caledonian Road is a Grade II listed building. Pictured is the ox-blood tiled frontage.

Sitting quietly among the trees and adjacent to a busy main road and a golf course this world war two Pill Box dates from 1940 but was never used in conflict. There were about 20,000 built across the UK. Most have now crumbled away.
This one left perhaps as a warning how very different life for us all might have been had an invasion taken place !!

A cool and elegant design of a globe placed on the heart of Pasay City, Philippines. A sign where the biggest mall in Asia reside, called "SM Mall of Asia".
The Palace of Fine Arts in the Marina District of San Francisco, California, is a monumental structure originally constructed for the 1915 Panama-Pacific Exposition in order to exhibit works of art presented there. One of only a few surviving structures from the Exposition, it is the only one still situated on its original site. It was rebuilt in 1965, and renovation of the lagoon, walkways, and a seismic retrofit were completed in early 2009.
Random shot taken during a feature in Suffolk. I'm led to believe this structure is something to do with the cooling outlets from Sizewell B nuclear power station, which was about half a mile away.
B&W treatment in LR with a contrast boost to bring out what little horizon there was - it was a grey, flat day that was pretty gash for landscape photography.
