Tbilisi TV Broadcasting Tower (Georgian: თბილისის ტელეანძა, tbilisis teleandza) is a free-standing tower structure used for communications purposes. The tower is located in Tbilisi, Georgia and was built in 1972. The preceding structure, built in 1955, was moved to the vicinity of the city of Gori.
The tower is operated by "Georgian Teleradiocenter", that was established 1955. Communication systems on the tower include regular broadcast, MMDS, pager and cellular, commercial TV, and amateur radio repeater. The tower is 274.5 m (901 ft) high on a mountain at 719.2 m (2,360 feet) above sea level.
"Furie" is the oldest steam powered tugboat built in The Netherlands that is still in operation. From 1978, MME Group has supported the foundation that owns the vessel with Ultrasonic Thickness Measurements (UTM). This makes sure the vessel meets all requirements and can be used during numerous maritime events.
The vessel was built in 1916 by G. & H. Bodewes shipyards in Martenshoek (Groningen Province). In 1918, the Swedish Norrköping based paper manufacturer ‘Holmen Bruks & Fabriks AB’ acquired the vessel. Under its new name "Holmen III" it was used for timber rafting on the Baltic Sea until 1969. In 1976, the Dutch broadcasting corporation AVRO bought the vessel to use it in the TV series "Hollands Glorie". In 1978, a foundation was formed under the same name. Since then, this foundation preserves the vessel as much as possible in its historic state.
We are very pleased with MME Group's UTM services for classic steam tug "Furie". They provide this support since 1978.
— Jan Peute - Foundation "Hollands Glorie"
Every 5 years, "Furie" undergoes maintenance and inspection at Shipyard De Haas. Jan Peute, board member of Foundation "Holland Glorie" is in charge of the drydockings. Peute explains: "We are very pleased with MME Group's UTM services for classic steam tug "Furie". The nice thing about this story, is that they do so since 1978." MME Group is proud to support "A Longer Life" for both the vessel, its volunteer crew and the passengers.
Tokyo Skytree Tōkyō Sukaitsurī is a broadcasting, restaurant, and observation tower in Sumida, Tokyo, Japan. It became the tallest structure in Japan in 2010 and reached its full height of 634.0 metres in March 2011, making it the tallest tower in the world, displacing the Canton Tower, and the second tallest structure in the world after Burj Khalifa.
The tower is the primary television and radio broadcast site for the Kantō region; the older Tokyo Tower no longer gives complete digital terrestrial television broadcasting coverage because it is surrounded by high-rise buildings. Skytree was completed on 29 February 2012, with the tower opening to the public on 22 May 2012.
The tower is the centrepiece of a large commercial development funded by Tobu Railway and a group of six terrestrial broadcasters headed by NHK. Trains stop at the adjacent Tokyo Skytree Station and nearby Oshiage Station, and the complex is only 7 km north-east of Tokyo Station.
The N Seoul Tower (엔 서울타워), officially the YTN Seoul Tower, is a communication and observation tower located on the summit of Namsan Mountain in central Seoul, South Korea. Completed in 1971, it was initially a critical broadcasting facility used for radio and television transmission by major Korean media networks, including KBS, MBC, and SBS. It was subsequently opened to the public in 1980, quickly becoming a primary tourist attraction and a central city landmark.
Standing 236.7 meters tall from its base (and 479.7 meters above sea level), the tower provides sweeping, 360-degree panoramic views of the capital, making it a prominent feature of the Seoul skyline. The complex includes several observation decks, gift shops, and dining facilities, such as a revolving restaurant. A popular cultural element of the site is the "locks of love" tradition, where visitors attach padlocks to the perimeter fences as a symbol of affection.
The tower's exterior features an advanced LED lighting system that illuminates the structure at night; the colors sometimes communicate air quality information or mark special events. Visitors can reach the tower by hiking, using a public shuttle bus, or taking the scenic Namsan Cable Car.

The Tembo Deck also features a café, souvenir shops, and a glass floor section where you can look straight down to the ground below.
At 450 meters, the Tembo Galleria is a tubular, glass-enclosed walkway that spirals up from floor 445 to floor 450. It gives visitors the sensation of walking in the sky. The highest point, known as Sorakara Point, is at 451.2 meters and offers breathtaking views of the city. The Tembo Galleria also includes high-resolution digital telescopes and commemorative photo spots.
Visiting these attractions is a unique experience, offering breathtaking views of Tokyo's beauty and vastness from great heights.

This was a rather impromptu little long exposure taken on my phone from the 2nd floor of New Broadcasting House, looking over the piazza towards All Soul's church.
Rather than use a tripod to stabilise the 1 minute exposure time (using the incredible 'Even Longer' app), I just pressed my phone up against the window with my hand and held it there for a minute! This is the only way of capturing the piazza without lots of people in it as it's always busy ...
Broadcasting House, Leeds. It’s won various national and international Architecture awards, and is a building that divides opinion. One thing I’m certain of is that the designer didn’t account for Peregrine Falcons nesting on the side of it...

This is a natural shot. The circles are natural where the stars at night drew it.
The new building on the site of the old Egton House. It's not as big as I thought it was going to be... I thought it was supposed to be a big, full-size mirror of the old building.
After the visit to the cat cafe we decided to make our way to Battersea, walking back a slightly different route to Oxford Circus to catch the Tube. I was surprised to pass these London landmarks.
This shows the exterior of Broadcasting House, the headquarters of the BBC in London.
A new East wing, built in the same Portland stone as the original Broadcasting House, balances the existing construction. The two buildings are linked by a glass-fronted extension, allowing visitors and passers-by to witness the BBC's daily activities. The glass was specially treated to create varied lighting effects throughout the day.
An integrated lighting scheme for the site also embraces the neighbouring All Souls' Church. The Broadcasting House complex surrounds a new central 'piazza' space, a new public destination in central London, with facilities including a cafe and performance area. (From BBC.com)
The main building was refurbished, and an extension built to the rear. The radio stations BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio 4, BBC Radio 4 Extra and the BBC World Service transferred to refurbished studios within the building. The extension links the old building with the John Peel Wing, and includes a new combined newsroom for BBC News, with studios for the BBC News channel, BBC World News and other news programming. The move of news operations from BBC Television Centre was completed in March 2013. The official name of the building is "Broadcasting House" but the BBC, until 2024, used the term "new Broadcasting House" (with a lowercase 'n') in its publicity referring to the new extension rather than the whole building, with the original building known as "old Broadcasting House".

I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in. ~George Washington Carver
This is a little wide shot of the recently revamped atrium at New Broadcasting House. Looks kinda trippy when viewed from across the way with all the reflections ...

Designed by Stirling Prize-winning architects Feilden Clegg Bradley, the Tower is distinctive and it is clad in COR-TEN weathering steel, which has given it the rust-like appearance it is known for.
In June 2010, Broadcasting Place was the recipient of the 2010 Best Tall Building in the World award by the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat.

I led a group of 10 photographers in a photowalk at Bodie on the night of June 2, and I'll return with two more night photography workshops on September 22 and October 6. Contact me if you're interested in attending!
