Shatterconed sandstone in Ontario, Canada.
Shattercones are striated conical structures in rocks formed by a powerful shock wave or pressure front moving through during an impact event. They have a three-dimensional cone-like structure, with the points of the cones directed toward the shock wave origination site. Undisturbed shatterconed rocks will have the apex of the cones pointing toward the direction of the incoming object (i.e., upward - toward space).
The host rocks here consist of ~2.3 to 2.4 billion year old fluvial sandstones of the Mississagi Formation. Notice that the shattercones are pointing downward, indicating that the impact event also overturned the beds.
This outcrop is in the Sudbury Impact Structure, the site for one of the largest impact events in Earth history. The impact structure, located in southeastern Ontario, is ovoid in shape, about 37 miles long by 19 miles wide. It was originally ~circular, but has since been laterally compressed by tectonic deformation. Before erosion and structural deformation, the structure may have been between 60 and 120 miles across. The impacting object is estimated to have been about 6 miles in size. The impact event itself occurred at 1.85 billion years ago. At that time, this part of Ontario was ocean. Computer modeling indicates that the splash wave generated by the Sudbury Impact may have reached about 30 miles high and generated a ~300 feet high megatsunami that radiated away from the target area for up to ~1800 miles. The impact punched a hole down into underlying mantle rocks.
Abundant evidence indicates that the Sudbury, Ontario area was indeed the site of an impact long ago. This includes impact breccias, shattercones, and extensive syn-formational sulfide mineralization. The sulfides are rich enough for mining to occur. In fact, the Sudbury Mining District targets the # 1 most productive nickel deposit on Earth.

This structure/assembly to house Sri Guru Granth Sahib is a present from SGPC (Amritsar, Harmander Sahib) to Canada's parliament. It was used for Vaisakhi celebrations on Parliament Hill, the seat of the Canadian government on April 11 2016 as shown in the current album.
Replacement of the overhead wiring and structures as part of the High Capacity Trains Project which is running in parallel to level crossing removal works on the Pakenham/Cranbourne line corridor.
The original lattice structures date back to the 1500V DC electrification of the line which was completed to Oakleigh in March 1922 and Dandenong in December of the same year. Although Dandenong was the limit of electrification most trains terminated at Oakleigh originally as it remained the limit of suburban expansion until the post-war years. As such the station had three platforms and a substantial yard was once located here.
With most trains now passing through the sidings gradually became redundant with the last of these removed as part of the current works and the station reduced to two platforms. The ageing overhead structures were placed at spacings up to 100 yards (91 metres) with the new ones much closer at around 60 metres on straight track.

Unknown abandoned structure, possibly old East Nicolaus High School campus, East Nicolaus, Sutter County, California.
Not much information is available for this location, from research it appears that this structure and the surrounding properties may have been part of the East Nicolaus High School prior to a large grass fire burned it beyond repair in 1964 (some references say the fire took place in 1960).

This is the “Old Field” Baptist Church, an historic structure in Cope Creek Road that once served the modern-day Scotts Creek Baptist Church congregation from 1870 until 1901. The simple, wood frame building is pretty typical of buildings in the region from the time period, with minimal ornamentation, due to the lack of resources available for more intricate construction. The much more ornate wood-frame church that replaced this structure was constructed at Beta, which had become a small train stop during the 1880s, and where much of the population in the area had gravitated due to better economic opportunity being available. Around the same time, a two-story wood-frame public schoolhouse was built next to the church, which served the area until 1951. Following the closure of the school, the church purchased the property and demolished the building, constructing a new educational building on the site and breaking ground for their new sanctuary in 1955. However, the new building lasted only a few years, as a fire in 1960 ripped through the church buildings, destroying the parsonage and church from 1901, as well as the new buildings constructed in the 1950s. The congregation soon rebuilt with a new, larger building that still stands to this day just off US 74. The old church, meanwhile, remains in the midst of the congregation’s graveyard on Cope Creek Road, appearing much as it did when it was built, and having outlived its replacement by almost a century.

The White Bridge is the longest of the Queenpost structures located within Greene County. There is, however, a discrepancy concerning the date of this bridges construction. With the exception of the 1990 state survey, which determined that the bridge was built in 1900, all other sources suggest that the White Bridge was constructed around 1919. Charles Morris, born in 1911, grew up near this area. He remembers the White Bridge being built when he was a young boy and that prior to the building of the bridge there was a foot log across the creek just west of where the bridge now stands. If one wanted to cross the creek with a wagon or buggy, you had to ford the creek even though at times the water was too deep to permit crossing at all. In addition to being the longest covered bridge in Greene County; White Bridge is also an exceptionally high Queenpost structure. It has a clearance of 17 feet, 6 inches. With no evidence of steel reinforcement, the bridge boasts an exceptionally high load limit of ten-ton. It is covered with white vertical tongue-and-groove board siding on both the sides and the portals, a steel metal roof and a decking of lengthwise vertical planking in the tire track area laid over diagonal crosswise planking. The structure rests on cut stone-and-mortar wingwalls. There are typical narrow lengthwise openings under the eaves.
The bridge is 70 feet long and 15 feet wide and crosses Whitely Creek, the builder is unknown it is owned and maintained by the county. This structure is open to vehicular traffic.
