Kyushu Electric Company is putting a new line over the mountains so they have set up a cable system for moving gear. A lift helicopter brought is bringing up most of the equipment.

I once met some guys that work on the lines in the mountains expecting the pylons. They were in great shape!

Cable cars are turned around to return over their route. Car in right image is being turned to climb the hills to return to the Bay side of San Francisco. There was a time when the new passengers could help with the turning. Not so here it seems.

This is the end portion of cable for part of a guard rail.

I think I'll probably take another picture of this again in the future, and play with deeper depth of field instead of the rather shallow depth used here. It might make an interesting shot with a little work.

Cable Cafe, Sayward BC: it is sheathed in logging cables.

This is a lead that i am selling for a friend on the internet, and when taking photos to place on Ebay, i got carried away taking artistic photos too. The lead is from an XBox 360, if you need one, please give me a message, and i will let you know when it is going online to purchase.

The long cable car run takes you up to the top of the hilltop fortress of Masada. The view over the wilderness and Dead Sea is incredible.

The famous Cable Car of San Francisco!

We rode on the cable car to downtown San Francisco for a look around and a bite to eat.

Bad Cable Management .... :o)

This is what is left of the Comcast cable "tap". This is what caught the fence on fire.

I don't have an actual pattern for cable socks, I'm just adding them in. One thing I learned is that you should be sure to line up the cables that will be continuing over the top of the foot before you divide for the heel. Or you end up splitting a cable between the first and second needles. Which not only makes it difficult to twist the cable (I'm proud to say I still managed it despite this) but it also means that sometimes you'll have to be decreasing at the same time (not actually possible just time the cable twists to coincide with non-decrease rows).

Note Powell St cable is not running (we see why later).
