Old power plant stuff

This one is obviously an old generator. I love the forms. Too boring this is from a museum though. 35/1.2, Tri-X

This is an old generator room. They used to have style in engineering those times, about 100 years ago. Nokton 35 again, I hate the distortion (not too bad in this shot), but love the lens in general.

Hannes,

 

Both are fine pictures with the tonality and clarity. Great details. I like the second showing the generator room. It seems like power plants are unusually clean.

Both terrific, and worthy of the company's annual report.

Thanks!

 

I guess the builders tried their best to make it a showcase, the place was the first power plant in Finland and must have been a highly regarded project and very, very exotic. I think the generator still works if wanted, but I haven't seen(heard) it. Quite well from a plant of 100 years in service.

 

Here is a high voltage switch panel from a building nearby, might, or might not have been connected to the generator.

All are great photographs with superb tones and clarity.
