Following the image of the BT Tower I added recently, I stepped back a little further (about 8 miles in fact!) to get another capture of it. The sight of so many cranes shows London is constantly evolving.
Otra visita de la BT a la que me pude escapar, en este caso volviendo a Tarragona desde Martorell a su paso por Lavern.
…..Originally named as ‘Museum Radio Tower’ back when it opened in 1965 - building began in 1961, I wonder how much life is left in it - I for one would not be able to go up it - too darn high for me that’s a fact!!!. Taken a couple of weeks ago on my phone - now who would have believed that in 1965 when Film was very much the photography medium and phones were very much still tethered back at home - we even had 'Party Lines' where houses had to share a phone line!!!!

Out for the day, practicing with the "new" camera.
I had to wander around a bit to find the "right" photo. This time of year, with a low sun, images can be a bit contrasty.

RSPB Green status list.
The sparrowhawk is about again and the birds seem quite nervous. There are always one or two birds that look like they are on the lookout ready to sound the alarm if they spot him.
Location: Highlands of Pahang, Malaysia
Toxicity: Venomous
Distribution: Southern Thailand and Malay Peninsula

It was raining heavily last night! The rain makes this snake look so shinny and wet.
Just one snake and that was also a lucky break.
Specific epithet:
Named after the Latin adjective fucatus, that could be translated by “with make-up”. It was used in classical Latin language to describe the red and white hues harboured on their cheeks by actors of the ancient Latin theater, and was chosen here in allusion to the bicolor white and red postocular streak present in some males of this species.
This is the BT (British Telecom) facility at Whittington in Shropshire. "The site is the home of the UK's speaking clock. BT IT Services, headquartered at Barlborough in Derbyshire on the A616, have a main operation in the building.
It monitors network traffic on BT's network across the UK, including 0800, 0845 and 999 numbers. It monitors televotes provide by RIDE (Recorded Information Distribution Equipment).[3] RIDE is accessed via the SOAP protocol.[4]
At peak periods it implements call gapping load control. BT Wholesale controls its traffic from the site.
Every two minutes the site contacts around 700 of BT's telephone exchanges to find out how busy they are. 80% of BT's network consists of optical fibre." The centre has been under threat of closure for some time. Photograph taken (from the roadside!) on a Nikon F3 with a Nikon 200mm/f4 on Kodak Colorplus 200. I liked the way the (now dated) design epitomised last century techno architecture.
Three London landmarks seen here at sunset: Tower Bridge, City Hall, and BT Tower in the background.
Parece que la llegada de la Alta Velocidad a Granada se acerca. Este es el primero de los trenes de pruebas que se esperan en la ciudad de la Alhambra para esta semana. A ver si estas pruebas tienen continuidad y podemos ver el final de este aislamiento que sufre Granada por más de 3 años ya.
355-002 de pruebas en Granada.

An empty hopper train curves off the main and heads into the Black Thunder Mine as one of the loadouts stands in the background. Black Thunder is one of the largest mines in the Powder River Basin, with three loadouts able to handle around 25 trains a day.
This train loadout is BT West. A conveyor system runs bituminous coal two miles from a crusher inside the mine up to the top of these silos where up to 35,000 tons of coal can be housed while waiting to be dumped into outbound trains.
