. . . Under Pressure . . . Ok, yes you can see my shadow taking this shot on my phone, but it was one of those in the moment, can’t do anything about the lighting moments. And oh that colour and those retro dials! #outofthephone #iphone11 #tourquoise #pressure #dials #banalmag #ａｅｓｔｈｅｔｉｃ #mundane 
. . . The Blue Line 
. . . The Elevador de Santa Justa is one of the truly unique tourist attractions of Lisbon. I captured this on a beautiful warm evening in March 2019. Portugal was our last trip abroad. Oh how I long to there right now. This 19th century industrial age marvel transports passengers up 45m from the Baixa district to the Largo do Carmo. The Elevador de Santa Justa dates from an era when wrought-iron was not just a construction material but also an elegant art form. The exterior structure is adorned with glorious neo-gothic arches and geometric patterns, while inside two sumptuous polished wood carriages whisk passengers up in style. . . . #lisbon #portugal #nightphotography #streetphotography #travelphotography #vacationphotos

Thanks. @ssartprize for the feature! . . . Posted @withregram • @ssartprize SSNAP 2017 Finalist David Brandy Artist Update! “Newer Topographics - I have been focusing the past two years on my interpretation of the seminal 1975 exhibition in Rochester NY called, “New Topographics: Photographs Of A Man Altered Landscape”. This exhibition changed the genre of landscape photography forever. I call my series “Newer Topographics” as a homage to those early artists." David has been included in the shortlist of 20 artists for the 2021 Aesthetica Art Prize and Exhibition in York, UK for his work "The Fall and The Twins" https://aestheticamagazine.com/future-now-symposium-2021 The exhibition will run from May 27 to Sept 28, at the York Art Gallery. Join the May 1, Aesthetica Art Prize: Meet the Artists Talk, including David 4Pm One can see the series in two portfolios on his website, www.davidbrandy.com and interestingly, his photo “Lifesavers”, which was in SSNAP 2017, was one of his first topographic images. 1/ “The Fall” - shows part of the infrastructure that makes up the Eugenia Power Station in the town of Eugenia, Grey County. This is a 106-year-old hydro generating station. The turbines are water-powered. The two large pipes that cascade down the escarpment bring water from a man-made lake 2km away. Those pipes then go into the power station which was about 10 feet behind where I was standing to take the photo. Originally, the station had just one pipe flowing into it (see the archival image). Now there are two. 2/ “Twins” - shows two exhaust stacks that are part of the infrastructure of a much newer, natural gas-powered hydroelectric plant right in downtown Toronto, in the Portlands area. @davidbrandyphotography was a 2017 SSNAP Finalists for his photograph "Life Savers" https://saltspringartprize.ca/project/david-brandy/ #CanadianArtCompetition $41,000 in awards #calltoartists #artistcall #canadianart #artprize #canadianartist #saltspringnationalartprize #ssnap #torontoartist @aestheticamag @yorkartgallery

. . . Frost Forest . . . Is this frost actually mirroring the real trees out the window? Hmmm.... #frost #window #forest #outofthephone #iphone11 
. . . I spent everyday in my early career in radio or sound recording studios. Arguably, the most important person and inventor in the modern age of audio recording was this man, Rupert Neve. Watch the 2013 Dave Grohl documentary “Sound City” for one of the reasons why. Have a wonderful afterlife in the great studio in the sky! #rupertneve #neve #recordingstudio #recordingequipment
