Aganetha Dyck begins by choosing a slightly broken object or damaged material from a second hand market place. Aganetha Dyck works under the direction of a beekeeper and all her works are supervised by scientists. Communication between species is urgent. Research continues to try and prevent honeybees from disappearing from our world.
Flood water from the citys waterways are collected through the tunnels and into the silos. The utility of such a colossal drainage system is debated by some people. That is however a once-in-200 years event, but one that G-Cans would help to drain away. The G-Cans project is an incredible engineering feat and strangely beautiful too, and therefore a fascinating tourist destination. When not flooded, tours are conducted twice a day, from Tuesday to Friday....
Container ships are some of the largest and heaviest vessels that plough on the seas. Some of the larger cargo ships have engines that look like this. Standing at 13.5 meters high and 26.59 meters long, it is almost as big as a small apartment. It weighs over 2,300 tonnes and its largest 14-cylinder version produces 80,080 kW of power. One of the most remarkable feature of this behemoth is the high thermal efficiency, which exceeds 50%....
Apparently, after World War II, there was a concerted effort to find peaceful uses for atomic energy. The circular garden measures 100 meters in radius, and enclosed by an 8-meter high shielding dike wall. Species within are irradiated with gamma rays from a cobalt-60 source placed inside a central pole. Paige describes about these gamma garden in aninterview to Pruned, that is worth reading. The amount of radiation received by the plants naturally varied according to how close they were to the pole....
Previously gas was provided by an English firm called Inter Continental Gas Association (ICGA). So they constructed four massive storage tanks called gasometers, in the 11th district of Simmering. At the time, they were the largest in Europe. After nearly a century of operation, in 1984, the gasometers were decommissioned. Between 1999 and 2001, the gasometers were gutted leaving only the brick exterior and parts of the roof. The gasometer houses 1600 tenants in about 800 apartments, as well as 250 students in 70 student apartments....
The German Navy operates a ship of an interesting design, engineered to recover oil spilled into the sea. The twin hull ship feature a unique bow which can be opened by 65 degrees. This creates an area of more than 40 square meters to collect oil-polluted seawater. The water is pumped into the ship’s tank, where it can be cleaned and the oil separated. Although owned by the German Navy, the ships are manned by civilians and not naval personnel....
In some spots the stone layers are completely twisted, just like an enormous marble cake. The extraordinary geology at White Pocket is not easily explained. The sand mass eventually filled a large pond or oasis. This large sand mass is the featureless bleached-white sandstone or “cauliflower rock” seen today. Marc has identified at least 25 of these features supporting his theory. The fine laminae and cross-beds beneath the slide mass are remarkably well-preserved....
At one time, the Buzludzha Monument was the most celebrated monument dedicated to the sociopolitical movement of communism. Now, in the mountains of Buzludzha National Park it stands abandoned, vandalized, and devastated. In the 15 meter-high main hall of the memorial a 500 sq.m. fresco present portraits of Marx, Engels, Lenin and the Bulgarian communist leader Todor Zhivkov. The dome of the structure was covered with thirty tones of cooper....
But nature had other plans. Today, over six decades after the atomic bomb, Hiroshima is a green and vibrant modern city. Though broken and badly charred, they survived and soon were healthy again. Today, they are officially registered as A-bombed trees. According to the City of Hiroshima, there are about 170 survivor trees representing 32 different species. The tree closest to the hypocenter is a Weeping Willow, which stands 370 meters away from the blast....
Capital Gate is an iconic leaning skyscraper located in Abu Dhabi adjacent to the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. The building sits on top of a 7-foot-deep concrete base with a dense mesh of reinforced steel. The tower widens as it spirals upwards and outwards. Sources:Wikipedia,Heraldsun,CTBUH,Archdaily
Photographer Martin Rietze travels around the world in pursuit of Earth’s greatest fiery spectacle volcanoes. During the shoot he captured some incredible lightening storms that are known to accompany volcanic eruptions. How lightning forms in general is still debated among scientists, and volcanic lightning is even less well understood. Other volcanic lightning episodes may be facilitated by charge-inducing collisions in volcanic dust. But he cautioned: When you get this shut the camera equipment ages instantly....
I have decontextualized these highly detailed photographs to express the complexity and beauty of form. That these giant conglomerations of aluminium, can gracefully lift from earth is amazing. That they can return safely some hours later on another part of the globe is even more amazing. My aircraft photograph."
On hand are other tools like sandpaper and polishing stones to shape his intricate designs. Cerkahegyzo says his work is inspired byDalton Ghetti, the original pencil carver. Below is a small collection of cerkahegyzos work. you could find more on hisdeviantART page.
