It's been well over a year now since my amazing trip inside the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, but I'm still finding little gems on my hard drive!
This is the server room at the Duga Radar Station. I only grabbed this shot for my Stepfather's benefit (he won't mind me telling you that he's a bit of a computer boffin!) There's not much in the way of computer equipment left though. I suspect much of it had been looted since the disaster and subsequent evacuation.

We IceCube Winter-Overs here at South Pole have to administrate all the 200+ servers in the IceCube Lab (ICL) building. When the lights are off the server room looks almost like Christmas does ;)
Promotional pic sent by 1E re their new NightWatchman Server edition (if you look closely you can see it is a single row of servers mirrored)
I took a trip to a colocation room, and saw one row where a number of orange lights were blinking. Some of these customers could have issues, but I think most of these customers make a habit of only connecting one power supply, causing the error lights to blink too. It certainly makes for an impressive picture when you take a 30 second exposure ;-)

Everyone say ahhhhh...she's only 10 weeks old - I sneaked her out of her cage to pet!!! Wouldnt you? She's so cute!

Computer server racks in a completely dark room inside an abandoned building undergoing demolition in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
I love light painting, it allows me to have complete control over the light sources but it can also be very time consuming and when you are exploring these kinds of places time is a luxury you don't always have.

Power strips in our server room. They're pretty cool. You can actually access these remotely (from home) and do whatever you want. Turn them off, turn them on, view statistics, etc. I like how the lights gave off a star shape because of the long exposure.

I was in the server room shooting some other shots for some upcoming ads and did this as a last shot. Makes the whole setup look more impressive than it is in real life, and its reasonably impressive on a regular day.
So neat and tidy.
Shot with a 20D, an EFS 10-22mm, a 430 EZ and a 285HV. This is a composite of 3 different photos that placed the flashes in different areas.

One of the funniest spots on the real estate tour was a place with zero air conditioning, cubes stacked tight, and this joyus reminder of Joi's first closet server room. The guy said there was a certain temptation while working on things (notice the angle of the monitor).
Chris (in photo) let me use his 18-55 for this shot of the server room at new BPL.
Too much camera shake. I had been using the nifty 50mm for its speed, and didn't adjust mindset to use the slower lens.

Back to my work though... I had the craziest and busiest week ever since I started at Microsoft nearly five years ago. We have a major project going on in my building that I am helping on. Plus we had a big event and a super important system go down in the same week. I worked almost 60 hours. It was insane and I hope to never repeat it. But here's a picture of me putting a special PCI Express card in a server. This is how I usually roll when I know that I'm going to have to work in there for a long period of time.
Shot this picture a few months ago.
Always liked it but never put it on the web.
So here it is for others to enjoy.

These may look like tall gym-room lockers — each bears the name of a telecom or Internet company — but they're full of networking equipment.
