Controller for a model helicopter. Wish I'd got the focus on the Walkera logo, but it's a difficult shot to get, over the shoulder of some one controlling a helicopter. :)
Anyway, thought I'd post a bit of colour after a few days of mono stuff.
Brotherton Quarry, where limestone has been quarried for almost 200 years lies abandoned. Huge conveyors and machines are slowly rusting, and parts of the site are flooded.

Cuando la luz disponible es suave, es dificil resaltar a tu sujeto respecto al fondo (imagen superior izquierda). Utilizando un flash (con 1/4 CTO) y combinando su potencia y la velocidad de disparo, se pude controlar la "presencia" de nuestro sujeto respecto al amiente. De nuevo paraguas traslúcido a la izquierda, bastante elevado sobre el sujeto, con 1/4 CTO.

The Huron-Clinton Metropolitan Authority performed a controlled burn of this meadow near the entrance to Stony Creek Metropark in Washington Township, Michigan. Burning this meadow will cause more wildflowers to grow here in the summer and return some nutrients to the soil. Interesting approach....
controlled burning early after the rainy seasons prevents uncontrolled fires later in the dry season. Also it regenerates the undergrowth, which provides food for the cattle of this young herder.
In 1972, the control room of the 140-foot (43-meter) telescope in Green Bank, West Virginia got an upgrade. Gone were the Flash Gordon-looking analog monitors and dials and in their place was this suite of Honeywell 316 computer modules. It had 32 Kb of memory, a card reader for program loading, CRT displays, and a position panel which controlled the telescope’s position, errors, and slew rates. These days, the telescope can be run remotely from the Jansky Lab up the lane or from a laptop stashed in a cabinet in this room.

So... my friend Anna has been staying with me for about a month, and now she's gone. She left under fairly mysterious circumstances. I am more than a little worried that she is either in a cult or that she's been human trafficked, but I don't really have a way to do anything about it either way. Hopefully she's okay...
In happier news, I found a neat camera (Olympus E-PL2) at the St. Vinny yesterday, and I got to play around with it today.
Okay, People always ask me "What do you want to do when you leave school?" when I reply become an air traffic controller they ask what they do.... I have made this video using my scanner to give a glimpse.
What is happening?
This is Theams Approach they control the airspace for London City Airport and London Biggin Hill. The job of the controller is to offer headings, altitudes, waypoint, and separation and speed information to the aircraft to safely expedite the flow of traffic around these two airports.
The Traffic-Control-Cabinets are being painted faster than I can photograph them. This week i cam across a number of them in the Docklands Area but i have failed to identify the artists or find information relating the the works in question. I assume that I will get the necessary information at a later date and when I do I will publish it here.
