Recommended Posts

Hello Jayant,

 

I would like to but unfortunately I have nothing I can Post at this time.

 

Perhaps someone else would like to provide a photo.

 

Best Regards,

 

Michael

Alright, with your word on my side, I am posting this out of turn... :)

 

Dan can take his turn when he wakes up... :D

 

Guess where is this? Half credit for guessing "what" is this.

Looks like a solar power station to me, but I haven't the foggiest notion where it might be.

Correct. You get half the credit as I promised... :)  Earlier Michael correctly guessed it was in California.... we are getting close.

I guess we don't need need to be more precise than California. It is a thermal solar plant where mirrors focus Sun's light onto the central tower that glows very brightly. It is actually quite a sight from the freeway due to brightness. I guess it was the biggest such facility in the world when commissioned few years ago. There were also many environmental issues reported, such as birds flying straight onto the light beams and getting burnt to death in the flight.

It means Michael can post the next challenge.

Hello Jayant,

 

I would like to Post a photo here but unfortunately my ability with computers is somewhat limited. I have had help from people on this Forum as well as here where I am but I am still not able to put a photo in the computer. Given this I will have to pass.

 

Hopefully someone else out there has a photo for us to look at.

 

Best Regards,

 

Michael
