Broadcasting tower is a new high-rise student accommodation building in Leeds city centre. One of its most interesting features is the COR-TEN cladding, which, upon exposure to weather, develops a rust-like layer, protecting it from any more corrosion.
Most of the people I know are not very fond of how the tower looks, but it's hard to deny that its interesting facade and unusual angular shapes make it a very suitable object for photography :)
Was an architecture/buildings competition at my camera club and this was something i considered entering, though decided on different shots in the end.
This unique building is the home to NHK's Osaka broadcasting center (the larger one located in Shibuya), and the Osaka Museum of History. It was completed in 2001 and has eighteen floors in addition to three basement levels with an area of 89,823 square meters. They are located in the area that was once the old Naniwa Palace grounds during the 7th century, across the street from Osaka-jo.
NHK is Japan's national public television company. It is officially known as Nihon Hoso Kyokai, but known in English as the Japan Broadcasting Corporation. It was originally a radio network famous for its Tokyo Rose broadcasts during WWII, but ventured into television in 1950. It is now the biggest television network in Japan. Their programming includes anime such as Gundam, popular dramas, news, and is now well-known for their Domo-kun character.
Sutro Tower pierces through wisps of fog during the blue hour, its red aviation warning lights glowing against the deepening twilight sky. This massive broadcasting antenna—standing 977 feet tall atop Mount Sutro—has been a defining element of San Francisco's skyline since 1973, visible from virtually every neighborhood and sparking endless debates about whether it's an eyesore or an iconic landmark.
The tower's distinctive three-pronged steel lattice structure rises from the hillside, each level marked by red and white painted sections that help pilots navigate San Francisco's airspace. Those red lights blinking in sequence up the tower's height serve the same purpose—keeping aircraft safely clear of this communications infrastructure that broadcasts television and radio signals across the entire Bay Area. On foggy nights like this, the tower seems to float, its base obscured by marine layer while the upper sections emerge into clearer air.
The foreground shows the parking area and landscaping at the tower's base, likely photographed from somewhere along the roads that wind through Mount Sutro's eucalyptus forests. Those wind-sculpted cypress trees on the left—their branches bent permanently by prevailing winds off the Pacific—frame the composition while demonstrating the harsh microclimate at this elevation. The empty road and parking area at this twilight hour emphasize the tower's solitary presence, standing sentinel over the city below.
Sutro Tower occupies a unique place in San Francisco's identity. Named after Adolph Sutro, the 19th-century mining engineer and San Francisco mayor who once owned much of this land, the tower was controversial from its conception. Residents fought its construction, arguing it would mar the natural beauty of the city's central hills. When it was completed, many considered it an industrial intrusion on a residential landscape. Yet over five decades, something shifted. The tower became so omnipresent in views across the city that it achieved a strange affection—the kind reserved for things that define a place even if they're not conventionally beautiful.
The fog interaction visible here is quintessentially San Francisco. Marine layer rolls in from the Pacific Ocean through the Golden Gate, climbs the city's western hills, and often gets caught at this elevation—roughly 900 feet above sea level. Mount Sutro sits right in that zone where fog either pools below or wraps around, creating atmospheric effects that transform the tower from stark industrial structure into something more ethereal and mysterious. Photographers chase these conditions, knowing that fog and twilight together can make even utilitarian infrastructure look magical.
The tower's function is easy to forget when appreciating its visual impact. Before Sutro Tower, San Francisco's hilly topography created notorious dead zones for broadcast reception. Signals from multiple transmission sites scattered across the city interfered with each other, leaving some neighborhoods with poor or no television reception. Sutro Tower solved this by consolidating most major broadcasters onto a single, optimally-located transmission point. That practical engineering achievement—enabling millions of Bay Area residents to watch TV and listen to radio without interference—matters more than aesthetics to the stations that lease space on it and the audiences that depend on it.
The architectural and engineering details are impressive. The tower's three-legged design provides structural stability against earthquakes and high winds while minimizing the footprint on the ground. Each leg is anchored into the bedrock of Mount Sutro with massive concrete foundations. The lattice construction reduces wind resistance while providing the necessary height for effective signal propagation. It's functional design driven entirely by engineering requirements, yet the resulting form has a sculptural quality that's hard to deny, especially when seen in atmospheric conditions like these.
Looking at this image, you can understand why San Francisco has such a complicated relationship with development and change. The city values its natural beauty, its hills and views, its carefully preserved Victorian architecture. Yet it's also a place that's always been defined by human ambition and engineering audacity—from cutting through hills to create streets, to building bridges across impossible spans, to erecting towers that dominate the skyline. Sutro Tower embodies that tension. It's undeniably an intrusion, yet it's also become inseparable from what San Francisco looks like. After fifty years, it's hard to imagine the skyline without it.

In this case, over the paging network. I just had to look inside my throbbing Ambient Orb, tuned to the NASDAQ Index.
I like it more without the glass diffuser, revealing the sharpness of unfiltered emotional pointillism... . .. .
You can add your emotional points to the collective. Yesterday, the Internet was anxious; now it’s confused.
Or, you can keep a mood log running on flickr, like Vanita does so assiduously. ;-)
I was looking to re-shoot one of the first night shots I took when I got my SLR.

Broadcast Tower,WFTT-TV is the Telefutura affiliate for Tampa Bay, owned by Univision and operated by Entravision, owners of WVEA-TV. The station, which broadcasts on UHF channel 50, is based at WVEA's studios on Hillsborough Avenue in Tampa, and transmits from Riverview. WFTT can be seen on cable throughout the Bay Area on Bright House channel 5, and on Comcast in Sarasota County on channel 23.
With the completion of the 442.550 repeater in Riverview at 805ft in January, the western pointing antenna on the 442.825 repeater caused a expected overlap that was unnecessary. Since 442.550 now blankets Hillsborough County, we have as of April 11th taken the antenna off the west leg of the Pebbledale tower site at 800ft and moved it to the east leg of the tower. What does mean for users? The tower has a 7 foot wide face, which creates a null that is created behind the antenna. This null used to face a huge portion of Polk County. By moving this antenna to the east, the null is now facing essentially Brandon/Riverview, where 442.550 is now located at 805ft. So far we have gotten incredible results from users in eastern Polk County. Some users in Sebring reporting almost full scale signal, and mobile users with hand helds on 27 at 5 watts can use 442.825 now. None of this was previously possible. So with this move, expect to hear more Polk, Osceola and I-4 corridor area users making it into the network.
A nother tower WVEA (channel 62) is Tampa Bay, Florida's first Spanish-language TV station, which had its start in the early-1980s as low-powered W50AC ch.50, which offered programming from the Spanish International Network (SIN), the forerunner of today's Univision. In 1988, to make way for new HSN flagship WBHS (now WFTT-TV), the station relocated to channel 61 and became W61BL. In the mid-1990s, the station was re-called "WVEA-LP". In 2000, WVEA's parent company, Entravision, acquired Sarasota English independent WBSV channel 62, with the intent of moving the transmitter from Venice to the antenna farm at Riverview. WBSV signed on May 3, 1991 as the Sarasota area's own independent station, designed to compete against WWSB and the other stations in the Tampa Bay and nearby Ft. Myers markets. Licensed to Venice, Florida the call letters stood for Bradenton, Sarasota, Venice, the three cities it primarily served. WBSV had a variety of syndicated and local programming, plus infomercials and home shopping programs. early on, they also had its own newscast. But, WBSV was eternally in red ink, and relied more on home shopping and infomercials to keep the station afloat....

Denis LeClair, General Manager of WTXL-TV and WBXT-TV at the time, was made General Manager for WTXL, WBXT and WTWC under this agreement. He would be followed by Chris Butterick and then Bob Franklin.

One final shot from a recent Public Service Broadcasting gig at the New Theatre in Oxford.
Seen here are the Brassy Gents, an energetic and entertaining trio of brass musicians that always add so much to a PSB gig. Oh, and one of two dancing Astronauts that join them on stage for some of the 'Race for Space' tracks.....
Given we were sat in the 2nd row and for most of the gig the only two empty seats in the theatre were in front of us it seemed rude not to to take some phone shots.

From www.publicservicebroadcasting.net/ , "It’s striking to reflect that Public Service Broadcasting, and their stirring archival narratives for cinematic rock, electronics and orchestra, have been with us since 2009. Led by instrumentalist-auteur J. Willgoose, Esq., these masters of conceptual pop historiography have depicted humankind scaling Everest and confronting Nazism on 2013’s Inform- Educate-Entertain, and launching into the cosmos on The Race For Space in 2015. 2017’s Every Valley then examined societal struggle via Britain’s coal industry, while 2021’s Bright Magic was a dizzying portrait of Euro-metropolis Berlin. 2023’s This New Noise, recorded live at the BBC Proms, was a love letter to the national broadcaster in its most elemental form. In each case, what was removed in time and specific in nature became vital and universal, as the human spirit was fathomed and saluted.
Now the band will consider a quite different, and more personal, type of heroism. The Last Flight concerns the final voyage of America’s pioneering female “aviatrix” Amelia Earhart. In 1922, aged just 25, she flew higher than any woman before her. In the years that followed she became the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, set multiple speed and distance records, and mixed with the highest and the best. In 1937 she found a new ceiling to shatter and announced that she would circumnavigate the globe. Taking off from Oakland in her Lockheed Model 10-E Electra aircraft on May 20, she crossed the Americas, Africa, the Middle East and Asia. On July 2, she and her navigator Fred Noonan left Papua New Guinea to fly to Howland Island in the Central Pacific. She never made it, and instead ascended to the level of myth reserved for the bravest adventurers."

Yesterday, 28 October 2017, Dutch singer and musician Gert Timmerman (1935-2017) passed away. He was one of the well-known performers of the Dutch Schlager. Apart from many solo hits, he also scored 21 golden records with his wife as the duo Gert and Hermien. Timmerman was 82.
Gerrit (Gert) Timmerman was born in Oldenzaal, Netherlands, in 1935 and grew up in the district of Pathmos in Enschede. He visited the craft school for some time, but he had more interest in music. From age 12, he played clarinet. At the age of fifteen he attended the music academy in Zwolle two days a week and worked in a printing shop three days a week. Here he met Henk Elsink with whom he formed a duo, with Elsink on piano and himself on double bass. In 1963, Timmerman scored a Dutch number one hit with the Schlager Blume von Tahiti (Flowers from Tahiti). Not long after another hit followed, Ik heb eerbied voor jouw grijze haren (I respect your gray hair) with music and text by Bobbejaan Schoepen, which sold over 350,000 records. Timmerman received a golden and platinum disk for it. In 1963, Timmerman scored two more solo hits, including De Schommelstoel (The Rocking Chair), but then he chose for a career as a duo with Hermien van der Weide with whom he married in 1963. As the duo Gert and Hermien, they successfully made one record after another. In der mondhelle nacht (In the moonlit night) composed by Freddy Golden (Fred Gaasbeek) became a Golden Record for the duo. Also, as a soloist, Timmerman booked success. In 1966 and 1967, they were awarded at the MIDEM festival in Cannes as best-selling artist in the Netherlands. End of the 1960s, Timmerman's wife focused more on their three children, and Timmerman himself released some solo numbers. He also composed film music with Freddy Golden. They received a prize for the score for the Dutch film Body and soul (René Daalder, 1967). Around 1968, Timmerman discovered the little singer Wilma for whom he wrote Een klomp met een zeiltje (A wooden shoe with a little sail, 1969) and Grootpappa (Grandpa, 1969), along with writer Fred van Dam, songs that reached the hit list in 1969. In the same year 1969, Timmerman did a stunt by claiming that he could easily get a stadium full of fans. Together with Willem Duys, he organised the Gert and Hermien Show at the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam. More than 35,000 people came to the show, the stunt was successful and Gert and Hermien received from the same Duys their twelfth Golden Record. The total number of gold records of the duo is 21 pieces, including a platinum record. In 1970, Timmerman reached a hit with Brandend zand (Burning Sand). With Hermien he released Shalalie Shalala (All the pigeons on the Dam) in 1972. They were rewarded with an Edison award for the album Gert & Hermien. In 1974, Timmerman converted himself to Christianity. The first lp with religious repertory, Daarom ben ik blij (Therefore I'm happy), made a sale of over 100,000 copies and was rewarded with a Golden Record. The couple joined the Baptists and repeatedly performed at the Evangelical Broadcasting (EO) company. Their musical career stuck. After a stay in Israel in 1977, they returned to Overijssel.
In 1990 Gert and Hermien became more familiar with the Achterhoek band Normaal and in 1993 a comeback followed. Their faith had set them apart, and Timmerman even gave permission for a photo report of his daughters Sandra and Sheila in Playboy magazine. However, the duo could not repeat the successes of the past. In 1999 a divorce followed. Timmerman was accused of incest by his daughter Sandra. He formed a duo with his son Gert Jr. in the same year and remained active as a singer and multi-instrumentalist. In 2002 he married Barbara Stoevenbeld. His ex-wife Hermien died of a kidney disease a year later, in 2003. A cd was presented in 2004: Roses for you, a tribute to his parents. In 2005, Timmerman celebrated his 70th birthday. He was also 50 years in the job, received a Royal decoration by the mayor of Losser and released his (triple) jubilee CD in October that year, entitled: En dat vergeet ik nooit (And that I'll never forget), including previous hits in a new arrangement , supplemented with new materials. In 2006, he was a hotelier in the reality show Hotel Big Brother. In February 2006 he had major problems with his management and financiers, who retrieved the studio material and the sponsored car. The website was also closed. Timmerman and his wife went undercover for the media. In May 2009, Gert Timmerman appeared in the program of TV vicar David Maasbach. He told about his earlier conversion and how he later wandered from Christianity. In his opinion, he did not lose faith, but he had nothing to do with the church as an institute. Later he returned from this choice and fully focused on faith in God, even if without Hermien and their daughters. A couple of weeks after the interview with Maasbach he performed at the latter's Pentecostal Family Day. In the EO television program How is it with ... in March 2011, Timmerman said that he was virtually deaf and that the singing and composing had almost become impossible. In 2017 he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, and died on 28 October 2017 in Overdinkel, Netherlands, at the age of 82.

In the 1960s very few boys would wear a long black raincoat and wellingtons, I always chose them, girls still would think it fine to wear them, at a distance I could be mistaken for a girl - girls were never up to mischief.

Broadcasting House is the headquarters of the BBC, in Portland Place and Langham Place, London. The first radio broadcast was made on 15 March 1932, and the building was officially opened two months later, on 15 May. The main building is in Art Deco style, with a facing of Portland stone over a steel frame. It is a Grade II listed building and includes the BBC Radio Theatre, where music and speech programmes are recorded in front of a studio audience, and lobby that was used as a location for filming the 1998 BBC television series In the Red.
As part of a major consolidation of the BBC's property portfolio in London, Broadcasting House has been extensively renovated and extended. This involved the demolition of post-war extensions on the eastern side of the building, replaced by a new wing completed in 2005. The wing was named the "John Peel Wing" in 2012, after the disc jockey. BBC London, BBC Arabic Television and BBC Persian Television are housed in the new wing, which also contains the reception area for BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 1Xtra (the studios themselves are in the new extension to the main building).
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 completed in March 2013.
The official name of the building is Broadcasting House but the BBC now also uses the term new Broadcasting House (with a small 'n') in its publicity referring to the new extension rather than the whole building, with the original building known as old Broadcasting House. [Wikipedia]
我們都是獨立的天體,囚禁著不自由的靈魂
無法真實地接觸彼此,擁抱成了難以跨越的咫尺
只能無聲吶喊著寂寞,日日夜夜的
發送出求救似的頻率,【ON AIR】24hr
噓...就在今晚,對好位置,調好頻道
一同收聽這星球放送的寂寞百態吧
那些無數寂寞相互干擾碰撞下迸出的旋律
如天鵝之歌般,迷人而哀絕
流曳而出的寂寞,也緩緩凝結成不為人知的悲傷
在靈魂互望的目光裡,落下之前,用笑容噬乾

The latest Leeds Met student building.
As a Northern university, the building was clad in a rust style finish to resemble the Antony Gormley Angel of the north. It has got windows on the other sides!

Broadcasting tower is a new high-rise student accommodation building in Leeds city centre. One of its most interesting features is the COR-TEN cladding, which, upon exposure to weather, develops a rust-like layer, protecting it from any more corrosion.
Most of the people I know are not very fond of how the tower looks, but it's hard to deny that its interesting facade and unusual angular shapes make it a very suitable object for photography :)
