Attempt at making infrastructure "pretty." One time active tower for AT&T long lines microwave system. The triangular shapes at the top of the tower are the microwave feed horns.

Happy Telegraph Tuesday!
Finally, a completely empty tunnel. Now I can create the photo I wanted to take the whole time.
This is the view of the uncompleted tunnel, before outfitting of the tracks and electrical systems, as viewed from Rosebank towards Sandton which is now part of the Gautrain train system in Johannesburg.
Explored :)
Thanks everybody !

Technology image of the week:
A prototype version of a self-sustaining life-support system, intended to allow humans to live in space indefinitely, is seen in Spain’s University Autònoma of Barcelona.
This is the pilot plant of the international ESA-led Micro-Ecological Life Support System Alternative, or MELiSSA, a mini-ecosystem behind airtight glass.
Today, International Space Station crews must be resupplied from Earth, but such supply lines will become impractical as explorers venture farther out into space.
Instead, the 11-nation MELiSSA seeks to perfect a regenerative life-support system that could supply astronauts with all the oxygen, water and food they require.
The pilot plant hosts a multi-compartment loop with a light-powered bioreactor and a culture of oxygen-producing algae to keep ‘crews’ of three rats alive and comfortable for months at a time. While the algae yield oxygen and trap carbon dioxide, the rats do exactly the reverse.
A MELiSSA-based experiment is being run on the International Space Station. In May, experts will gather to discuss MELiSSA and closed-loop life support systems, along with topics such as air, water and waste recycling and food production.

We are so blinded by technology these days… We are always caught up in checking and/or posting updates on our Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Tumblr feeds that we forget to take a step back and enjoy the other great things in life---family, friends, the outside world.
Lately I've been wanting to get away from all technological mediums, but it's hard to when your education and jobs require you to be around it. So... I challenge myself and you to take some time today to put your Apple products down, step outside, and go for a walk, run, or just simply breathe in the fabulous fall air.
I also made this picture into an aminated GIF and you can view it on my Tumblr or website.
This week’s picture was taken by ESO Photo Ambassador Babak Tafreshi at ESO’s La Silla Observatory. The bright lane of the Milky Way can be seen streaking across the skies above the Chilean Atacama Desert, beneath which sits the New Technology Telescope (NTT), one of the ten active telescopes located at the observatory.

#23 for 112 Pictures in 2012 - Technology. I thought about putting this in for 'gift' as the iPad was a christmas present from my hubby, but 'technology' won. The old Underwood typewriter behind is a reminder of where I started as a departmental secretary in the diplomatic service, using one of these old 'sit up and beg' typewriters and carbon paper in triplicate. What amazing advances there have been in technology over the last 40 years!

Street candid taken in Glasgow, Scotland. Two mobile phones, two laptop bags and an 'old school' telephone box, sometimes we can invest in technology a little too much.
Anesthesia Technology students performing hands-on simulation in the surgical lab. Invasive intrajugular vein insertion and learning how to draw arterial blood gases from a pressure transducer.
An old building technology book I found on my bookshelves at work. Very old... The glasses? Not mine... :-)
will catch up soon... thanks for looking... :-)
This is slightly older technology, but it is still used, and does the job well. This is part of the sound board at my church. I am not real smart when it comes to that type of technology, so I have no idea what each of the buttons and dials do, I just know they look interesting!
This image uses repetition, lines and shapes, balance, and rule of thirds.
I used the automatic setting on my Fujifilm Finepix camera. This photo used indoor lighting and was taken at 5:03 pm.
In Photoshop, I adjusted the brightness and saturation.
Modern technology can be great but sometimes the cables that come with it are a bit of a pain!
Taken for a challenge on the theme "Technology"
While utilising the reliable Victorian technology of a sturdy iron lamppost this left-handed Minehead fisherman holds the new electronic world in his hand.
The old tech is over a hundred years old, I guess the new might last about a hundred weeks!
