This shot is really cool - I love teh tranquil feel it has. It looks like it sued to be buzzing with activity, but it's taking a break from it all.

I love teh play of light and shadow in this one. This gallery is truly fantastic, this piece especially!

Back then they wanted the masses to be proud of their accomplishment. This was the largest power plant of it's day, a temple to the great god of electricity. Of course they wasted no effort or expense melding utilitarianisim with asthetics.

Those lights on the board to the right of him are lit up! What are those monitoring? Are they tied into the transformers that are still running?

Makes you wonder though, were all those panes of glass originally clear? if so, think of the dazzling amount of light the place must have been under in the noonday sun.

Utopia = big metal breasts?

I seem to remember an old old old silent movie portraying the future where all of the workers worked and lived underground and the elite classes lived above ground and partied and stuff. This picture reminds me of this. It was kind of a spooky film especially when the underground started to flood. This could be "after the flood".

Could you see the Engineers who designed this one:

Engineer # 1: "Let's put these gauges over here to the side so no one hits their head on them"
Engineer # 2: "Yeah, but if we put them here they look like hooters!"

<Insane Engineer laughter>

Engineer # 1: "Do you think anyone will ever notice?"

Maybe it's a part of the warning system:

"Um, turbine #4 is going to explode, please exit the building in an orderly fashion"

I work in Purchasing and I still order Honeywell items from time to time. Durable stuff. If they cleaned it up it would probably still work. Did you notice that the words in white on black are from one of those handheld machines that you plotted out the letters, pulled the trigger, and they were pushed into the plastic? I can't believe they are still sticking there! I have one of these machines and they don't seem sticky enough to last this long.

Given that this was a power station, I would have to agree - who knows just what the heck happened here? ;-)

Sorry to ruin you're fun but where are the holes in the ends of the tubes? I just see bolts sticking out of the ends of them.
