View from my window...

This is from a few winters back....

 

[Sentinel Chicken]

A scene like that here in the Dallas/Fort Worth area would result in the end of all known civilization. No one around here is able to drive in the slightest amount of snow or ice!

Post a view from your own window, JP

Ugh. When I imagine "soul-crushing dystopia," it looks a lot like that. I can't imagine being packed into that sort of population density, in that sort of drab and dreary environment. I'd go buggo.

My nearest neighbors are something like 400 feet away, and that's too damned close. They'd probably complain if I built a 5000-lbf-rated test stand out back and fired off hybrids and the like...

 

[flateric]

Something like this...Weird boxes at the ground are personal garages.

Cool,Grigory! Scott, would like to see your view

Don't have access to my personal photos at the moment, but this might give an impression.

Sunrise in Rozelle. Not bad for under the approach to Sydney interbational. Been here 5 month and still haven't seen a hornet.
Cheers, Woody

Yeah - photos! Something for me ;D Views from my window, both taken some 2 - 3 months ago. And better location from the Saris castle.

 

[Hanse]

Where I live and another taken from a park up the hill from where I live (up the mountain I guess. . .foothills. . .whatever.)

View from my other window about 5 minutes ago, just to prove its not *quite* an urban distopia.

Buildings in front before the open green area are the Royal Artillery barracks.

Second view shows a curious geodesic hemisphere device I always assumed had some connection to the Rapier units stationed here.

 

[overscan (PaulMM)]

And as far as urban distopias go, its not bad... Check out the Thames barrier, ready to save the richer parts of London from a flood from the sea. Unfortunately I'm on the wrong side... ;D

 

[Matej]

But from the photos I understood that you live high enough to sustain global warming

 

[overscan (PaulMM)]

Yep, 20th floor, should be ok...

 

[Orionblamblam]

Scott, would like to see your view

Looks like this...

 

[Orionblamblam]

And sometimes it looks like this.

 

[overscan (PaulMM)]

Really cool

Testing mid-sized Tesla coil, I suppose? ;D

Cats. Lots and lots of cats. You know how they can build up a static charge...

 

[Jemiba]

Not exactly from my window, but about 5 meters above, from our rooftop.
About 5km as the crow flies away from TXL Berlin Tegel airport...

In 1964 I was In Wittenau by friends I knew in France before they came back to Berlin; I remember the strand on the NW of the lake ;My friends lived then at a church in Wittenau .

 

[boxkite]

I have to shove my oar in this topic ... ;D

 

[Maveric]

...and here a look from my window. Not so beauty, but in the background the military airfield Erding.
