Von der Elbphilharmonie hat man einen herrlichen Blick auf den Hafen. Die Fenster sind nicht verschmutzt, sondern besondere Anfertigungen. Jedes Element enthält je zwei Isolierglasscheiben aus Verbundsicherheitsglas, auf denen sich je nach Lichteinfall Punktmuster befinden. Sie reduzieren die Sonneneinstrahlung und helfen effektiv gegen Höhenangst.
From the Elbphilharmonie you have a wonderful view of the harbor. The windows are not dirty, they are specially made. Each element contains two insulating glass panes made of laminated safety glass, on which there are point patterns depending on the incidence of light. They reduce solar radiation and effectively help against fear of heights

Previously unpublished shot from February 2018. Although the weather right now in Scotland is unseasonably mild, I can fully appreciate the need for such a furry hat to cover the ears. I usually have to pull a beanie tight over my ears when shooting winter streets in Glasgow. Enjoy!

There may be a day or two this week that are below the average temperature for this time of year in the UK. June, however, was entirely above average in temperature and at some points 10 degrees Celsius above average. Climate chaos will only increase as the North Atlantic jet stream is destabilised by simultaneous increases in ocean temperature and decreases in arctic sea ice extent.
Take care everyone.
I took this in mid Summer in Iceland. it looks very cold even then. The grass makes good insulation in this colourful house.

Previously unpublished archive shot from November 2019 and timely with the first properly cold blast of winter coming in from the East this week. Oh, and the shot got photobombed by a pigeon too! Wishing you all a great weekend of photography - wrap up warm!
Bearded Tits / Reedlings have to stay warm throughout the winter in the reedbed, so can really puff up their feathers to retain heat.

This is a verdin, a small songbird of the Southwest. Presumably this is a female. Verdins nest all year round and build several nests each year. The boy is responsible for the exterior and it's a spherical jumble of sticks. The girl verdin is responsible for the interior, lining the nest with soft and insulating materials (hence my assumption that this is a girl). I watched this gal fly off and come back to her nest several times with a beak full of nesting materials. Their winter nests have their entrance at the bottom of the sphere. Summer nests have their entrance at the top, which some theorize is a way to take advantage of the prevailing winds and cool down the house a bit.
Plastic insulated screwdriver shanks are an electrician's friend. Less risk for shocks and electrocutions when you use these tools around electrical equipment. Always disable and lockout electrical equipment regardless of how well your tools are made for the job.

Candid eye contact street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. Despite a little motion blur from his head movement, the rest being sharp, I still love the shot and the eye contact being given. Enjoy!
What was fiberglass insulation now hangs down from ceiling beams, moist with mold and natural decay, as the building surrounding it slowly succumbs to nature's unfriendly march of time on the afternoon of January 29th, 2022, in Meadowview, VA.
A bunch of CN and CP insulated 40 ft. boxcars roll thru Bayview Jct. near Hamilton, Ontario on a Canadian National extra east. Of note the kerosene heaters slung below the frame to keep products from freezing in the winter temps, but not needed this day September 25, 1976..
