Farms have changed from pure and organic places out in the country side to highly efficient production areas with fully automated aseptic processes - the changing of an image.
During several years now I am following these traces of agricultur within its transition - often hidden at the outskirts of small citys or villages. You'll never see any animals there, you don't even hear them. The smell of thousands of these creatures is taken away by efficient filter systems. The lives of these animals is unvisible and not recognized by anybody except of the farmers or better said agrar technicians.
There are biogas plants which look a bit like atomic plants - in a way artificial and extremely clean and propper.
So many different aspects are spotted during my photographic work on this topic and I guess it is worth to share my experience.

This was another shot taken on APM Line near Guangzhou Tower in China with a shutter speed of 2 seconds.
APM (Automated People Mover) is an automatic unmanned subway train. There is no separate driver room and both ends of the train fitted with large open glass windows, which provided a perfect opportunity for this type of motion photo. All I had to do was to push the lens against the glass window and kept shooting... :))
♥ Thank you very much for your visits, faves, and kind comments ♥
Union Pacific work train takes the weekend off, tied down on the center siding at Echo, Utah on June 26, 2021. The 30-car train is a Herzog Automated Conveyor Train, designed to distribute up to 2,900 tons of ballast and other materials on curved track. It had been used the previous day along Main No. 2 near Devils Slide.
Don Quixote and the Adventure of the Automated Cows
It was a sunny morning in La Mancha, and Don Quixote
the illustrious knight without fear, sense, or a functioning compass awoke with a sudden revelation.
“Sancho!” he cried to his loyal squire, who was in the middle of trying to negotiate a breakfast egg out of a chicken.
“Today is the day we face the most cruel creatures of the Devil fire-breathing, steel clad, mechanical cows!”
Sancho Panza, who had already survived exploding windmills, talking oak trees, and one particularly aggressive goat, was less than enthusiastic.
“Señor, maybe we should just eat cheese today and stay calm. Cheese is peaceful.”
But Don Quixote could not be stopped. Armed with his rusty lance, a helmet that had once been a salad bowl, and a cape that looked suspiciously like a curtain, he mounted his faithful steed, Rocinante who was more suited for retirement than war.
They rode through the morning until they reached a large pasture. And there they stood: the “Automated Cows.”
Shiny machines, with blinking lights and a “mooo” that sounded more like “bzzz.”
In reality, it was a modern milking system installed by the local agricultural cooperative.
“Do you see them, Sancho?” Don Quixote pointed at the devices.
“These devilish beasts have replaced the poor real cows! It is our sacred duty to destroy them and restore the balance of nature!”
Sancho let out a deep sigh.
“Señor, those are machines. They only milk. They don’t fight. One of them just offered me a coffee.”
But Don Quixote was no longer listening. With a heroic cry somewhere between opera and asthma he charged.
Rocinante, surprisingly quick for a horse with back problems, galloped straight at the largest of the milking robots.
What followed was a scene of epic chaos, Don Quixote thrust his lance, got tangled in a milk hose, was slapped by a rotating brush, and landed backward in a vat of fresh milk.
Rocinante trotted along peacefully, seemingly having the time of her life.
Sancho, who had found a chair and a sandwich in the meantime, observed the spectacle and commented dryly,
“If he calls me crazy one more time, I’m pickling him in that bucket.”
Don Quixote emerged from the milk, gasping.
His armor dripped, his helmet was full of cream, and his dignity was probably lying somewhere near the cow brush.
“Sancho!” he called as he hauled himself out of the vat.
“The enemy is tough! It fights with invisible forces! I believe I’ve received a magical shower!”
“They call that pasteurization, Señor,” Sancho replied.
“I call it a miracle bath of the white dragon!” Don Quixote shouted and raised his lance triumphantly which was now nothing more than a bendy straw.
At that very moment, the farmer Ramón, owner of the field, arrived with a face full of disbelief.
“What the hell is going on here?! Who attacked my brand-new milking system?!”
“Fear not, noble citizen!” said Don Quixote proudly.
“I have freed you from the tyranny of these mechanical monsters! Cow freedom has been restored!”
Ramón looked at the steaming, tangled equipment, then at Don Quixote, then at Sancho, who was trying to pour himself a cola from a milking tube.
“You’re either a hero or a walking insurance claim,” Ramón said.
Sancho grinned. “Both. Depends on the time of day.”
In the end, Don Quixote was escorted off the pasture to the polite applause of the cows, mostly because they were terrified he might come back.
Sancho promised Ramón he would explain to his master what an electrical cable was, but honestly, he didn’t believe it himself.
And so they rode on a knight, a squire, a deeply annoyed horse, and the faint scent of whole milk in search of the next adventure.
Or at least a place where Don Quixote wouldn’t try to joust with agricultural equipment.

**My heart, my words. Please respect them.**
Dear reader,
These words you are reading right now, whether it's a poem, a short story, or a thought is a piece of my soul. I write with passion, each word flowing from my heart, deeply connected to me. My writings are not just words; they are alive, carrying my emotions and essence within them. are not just words they are alive, carrying my emotions and essence within them.
If you plan to take them without my permission, know this: you are also taking a piece of my soul. And with every stolen word, I will always be present within the lines you use.
So be mindful… You never know what lies hidden between the lines, for words hold a power that goes far beyond the visible.💫
Quand j'ai vu le ciel bleu ce matin, je n'ai eu aucune envie d'aller trainer mes pieds, mais les deux yeux pleins d'espérance de mon toutou m'ont convaincu de bouger un peu. Alors malgré mon cerveau refusant le réveil, je me suis forcé.
Heureusement, il n'y avait personne pour voir un zombi à genoux dans le sable trempé en train d'essayer de tirer une photo potable de cette sortie.

Remember the electric typewriter that had the IBM letter ball? This mechanism reminded me of the fascinating bit of engineering that went into making that ball work with incredible speed and accuracy.
Shot through the protective glass. No risk there of getting wet.
A multiple exposures combined to a panorama setting. This was inspired by two paintings by Edward Hopper, thus the title.
This week's Crazy Tuesday challenge is "Nutcrackers." Since I don't have a nutcracker (or any nuts for that matter) I didn't submit anything but I thought this might be fun romp with AI.
Created using AI tools.
Mass produced to transport supplies and energy cores to outlying settlements and mining facilities. Due to lack of a willing population to make the lengthy and treacherous journey to outposts beyond the 40th parallel, the fleet was self-driving.
While in Bryce Canyon teaching a workshop this last weekend I wanted to try out an idea I've had for a very long time, automated tracked Nightscape imaging. I didn't have enough time to collect the foreground images, but I at least wanted to put together a bit of a test for the sky sequence. Luckily the ASIAir Pro has developed a new plan module which allows importing a mosaic from Telescopius, this allowed me to create a mosaic with the 2600mc Pro and my Voigtlander 50mm APO lens that would cover pretty much the entire arch. I waited a little too long to start the plan (waiting for the moon to set) so the plan ended up only covering a portion of the horizon, in the future I'll arrange the panel order to cover the entire horizon. The AAP controls everything (including slewing and centering the mount on each panel)! Only one panel failed, the target centering coordinates were below the horizon by the time I got to it and it couldn't execute that panel.
This plan is a 35 panel mosaic, each panel is a single 2 minute exposure at gain 100 and f2.5 with my ASI2600mc Pro and Voigtlander 50mm APO lens on a Sky Watcher AZ-GTi mount. Calibrated with a master bias and master flat, edited in PixInsight and Photoshop. We had some pretty crazy airglow that night which made color balancing and stitching a challenge, it moved pretty quick so getting the panels to stitch together evenly was a lot of work!
The automated book storage system consists of hundreds of metal boxes, retrieved by an automated module and brought to librarians on a mezzanine at the far end (glimpsed in reflection at the top). Each drawer is tightly packed with books. My inner librarian mourns the inability to scan the books on a shelf, to feel the paper, cloth, and leather, smell the dust and words. But it rejoices at the sheer hoarding glory, like a dragon on its treasure trove, and loves the tidy orderliness of the room.
Hoping it doesn't run over someone

This electric automated piano was in the Atlanta airport. Notice the tip jar...but there is no piano player!
The huge automated liftshaft within the St Botolph Building, which we were able to visit during Open House 2019. The lifts are "smart" and learn the best routes. You simply select the floor you want to go to, the computer decides the lift and you go to the door issued by the computer. Simples?

The AAAT is a fully automated (can be remote controlled) amphibious tank that the RDTF uses in assaults against enemy emplacements. It’s more compact than a traditional tank, so it can enter smaller spaces. It’s amphibious, so it can make it where people can’t without taking quite some time. It’s armed with two .50 cal chainguns, and kicks butt on the battlefield!
A Union Pacific RBL rests at North Yard in Salt Lake City, Utah on July 30, 1977. It was fresh from a rebuild and repaint in Pocatello, Idaho. The BI-70-10 box cars were insulated, 70-ton RBLs built by GATC in 1967 (490500-490699 series). They were standard RBLs with cushioned under frames, roller-bearing trucks, and loader-equipped with 10'-6" flush doors. The series were used to haul paper, canned goods, plywood, and particle board.

In countless big cities across the Galactic Federation, especially in hive-cities with complex system of highways and smaller roads, the problem of traffic congestion and a high number of accidents is especially acute. So in some those cities personal cars was replaced by an automatic taxi system. It is made up of millions of public cabs that do not require a driver to operate and can operate on dedicated traffic lines as well as on numerous small branches off major highways.
These electric vehicles do not have a rear or front and move in both directions equally quickly, which greatly simplifies city traffic and does not waste time on turning. Also, the salon is pressurized and even has life support systems, thanks to which these cabs can be used in cities with the most unfavorable ecology or on the surface of planets where there is no breathable atmosphere. Due to the fact that all cabs are controlled by automatics and connected to a single network, the accident rate of this type of transport is minimized.
P.S. Only after hour long rendering I noticed that cars "levitating" above the ground. And I'm too lazy to re-render it. :P

Thanks to a sudden weather change last Saturday, I had the chance to arrange a last minute trip to my dark site and collect some photons over this area.
I've imaged Corona Australis a couple of times in the past but I've to say that, IMHO, this present one is my best version of this object. Nicely satisfied.

Corona Australis is a constellation in the Southern Celestial Hemisphere. Its Latin name means "southern crown", and it is the southern counterpart of Corona Borealis, the northern crown. It is one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century astronomer Ptolemy, and it remains one of the 88 modern constellations. The Ancient Greeks saw Corona Australis as a wreath rather than a crown and associated it with Sagittarius or Centaurus. Other cultures have likened the pattern to a turtle, ostrich nest, a tent, or even a hut belonging to a rock hyrax.
Although fainter than its northern counterpart, the oval- or horseshoe-shaped pattern of its brighter stars renders it distinctive. Alpha and Beta Coronae Australis are the two brightest stars with an apparent magnitude of around 4.1. Epsilon Coronae Australis is the brightest example of a W Ursae Majoris variable in the southern sky. Lying alongside the Milky Way, Corona Australis contains one of the closest star-forming regions to the Solar System—a dusty dark nebula known as the Corona Australis Molecular Cloud, lying about 430 light years away. Within it are stars at the earliest stages of their lifespan. The variable stars R and TY Coronae Australis light up parts of the nebula, which varies in brightness accordingly.

This Labrie Helping Hand's Blue Coat is the result of Republic Services merger with Allied Waste in 2009. Originally, this truck was purchased to service Hillside, Illinois when Arc rolled out automated collection and operated out of Arc Disposal's yard in Hillside, which has since been closed.
When Allied and Republic merged this truck was brought to the Allied Waste yard in Melrose Park and received a new coat of paint to cover Arc's Forest Green livery. Republic Services lost the Hillside, Illinois contract around the same time to Waste Management.
In Melrose Park, Truck 2410 was used as a spare, until eventually being brought to Arc Disposal's yard in 2014, where it continued to be used as a spare before eventually being sent to a Republic Services yard in Minnesota.
