This is based on the concept art Alley 1C, from the Art of Rogue One book. It appears similar to moisture vaporators, so I assume it's some sort of water system.
A SPARKLING SALT-WATER LAGOON
Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon is a spectacular five-acre salt-water lagoon featuring a state-of-the-art water circulation system.
Named after Hawaii's legendary Ambassador of Aloha – surfer and Olympic swimming champion, Duke Paoa Kahanamoku – the sparkling lagoon is the perfect place to lounge on a beach chair, take a tranquil swim, or while away the hour beneath swaying palm trees.
This man-made lagoon is located in the Waikiki neighborhood of Honolulu, on the south shore of the island of Oʻahu near the Ala Wai Small Boat Harbor and Fort DeRussy Military Reservation and boasts spectacular views of Diamond Head and the Pacific Ocean.
It was developed back in the 1950's along with Henry J. Kaiser's Hilton Hawaiian Village. Henry J. Kaiser was a ship building and steel industrialist who amassed his multi-billion dollar empire during World War II.

I shot some pictures of the Selfridges Store building in Birmingham (UK) a couple of weeks ago.
I didn't get any great shots so I decided to make some kind of a landscape out of it, and this is what I ended up with.
This artist's concept puts solar system distances in perspective. The scale bar is in astronomical units, with each set distance beyond 1 AU representing 10 times the previous distance. One AU is the distance from the sun to the Earth, which is about 93 million miles or 150 million kilometers. Neptune, the most distant planet from the sun, is about 30 AU.
Informally, the term "solar system" is often used to mean the space out to the last planet. Scientific consensus, however, says the solar system goes out to the Oort Cloud, the source of the comets that swing by our sun on long time scales. Beyond the outer edge of the Oort Cloud, the gravity of other stars begins to dominate that of the sun.
The inner edge of the main part of the Oort Cloud could be as close as 1,000 AU from our sun. The outer edge is estimated to be around 100,000 AU.
NASA's Voyager 1, humankind's most distant spacecraft, is around 125 AU. Scientists believe it entered interstellar space, or the space between stars, on Aug. 25, 2012. Much of interstellar space is actually inside our solar system. It will take about 300 years for Voyager 1 to reach the inner edge of the Oort Cloud and possibly about 30,000 years to fly beyond it.
Alpha Centauri is currently the closest star to our solar system. But, in 40,000 years, Voyager 1 will be closer to the star AC +79 3888 than to our own sun. AC +79 3888 is actually traveling faster toward Voyager 1 than the spacecraft is traveling toward it.
The Voyager spacecraft were built and continue to be operated by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, in Pasadena, Calif. Caltech manages JPL for NASA. The Voyager missions are a part of NASA's Heliophysics System Observatory, sponsored by the Heliophysics Division of the Science Mission Directorate at NASA Headquarters in Washington.

Rail Express Sysytems liveried class 86/2 locomotive 86243 along with a Propelling Control Vehicle (PCV), head south past Heamies Farm, situated just north of Norton Bridge on the WCML.
Propelling Control Vehicle's (PCV) are former BR Eastleigh 1955 built Great Eastern Main Line Class 307 driving trailer cars, of which 42 were converted at Hunslet-Barclay in Kilmarnock between 1994 to 1996, so this very smart looking PCV could be one of the last converted on delivery.

“It is of dangerous consequence to represent to man how near he is to the level of beasts, without showing him at the same time his greatness. It is likewise dangerous to let him see his greatness without his meanness. It is more dangerous yet to leave him ignorant of either; but very beneficial that he should be made sensible of both.” ~ Blaise Pascal

"“Creativity is more than just being different. Anybody can plan weird; that’s easy. What’s hard is to be as simple as Bach. Making the simple, awesomely simple, that’s creativity.” ~ Charles Mingus

MURMANSK REGION, RUSSIA - JULY 3, 2020: The K-549 Borei-A-class nuclear-powered ballistic missile submarine Knyaz Vladimir [Prince Vladimir] arrives at the Gadzhiyevo naval base of the Russian Northern Fleet. Laid down at the Sevmash shipyard on July 30, 2012, and commissioned on June 12 this year, Knyaz Vladimir is the lead submarine among Project 955A fourth-generation watercraft improved in terms of hull form, noise level and steering capabilities. Equipped with a Bulava ballistic missile system, she is also fully capable of engaging in modern mine and torpedo warfare. Lev Fedoseyev/TASS

Sunrise from Grandview - New River Gorge - West Virginia
This aptly named area has been part of the New River Gorge National River for several years, but was once part of the West Virginia State Park System. There are several overlooks available that offer tremendous views of the horseshoe bend of the New River below. This particular image was captured from the "Main Overlook" . Thanks for taking a look, and have a great day!

These desert trees have long root systems that seek out any available water. With erosion taking away the soil cover, this tree will not survive much longer.
Venezia Mestre is a crucial part of the railway system of the north east of Italy. An important port for both freight and passengers, it has approximately 500 trains and 85,000 passengers each day. It is also a strategic hub, at which the Milan–Venice, Venice–Udine, Trento–Venice, Venice–Trieste and Adria–Mestre lines converge, and from which a four track main line leads to Venezia Santa Lucia.
