Gravensteen is a twelfth century castle in the city of Ghent, Belgium, and we like castles so we had to visit it during our trip there in early 2017. From the top you get a great view over the city skyline and if you're a fan of churches and their towers then Ghent won't disappoint you.

A view from a high building in the centre of a European city with a medieval history. It's an overcast day and there's a feeling that there's been rain in the recent past given the damp look to the buildings we can see. We're looking over the tops of roofs of four and five storey buildings, many with very tall, steep roofs, some with stepped gables typical of northern European countries. Four church towers are spaced across the city's skyline, two with clock faces on them.

This Romanesque style tower of the former Scostoun Flour Mill on Dunaskin Street in Glasgow. Also known as the Waulk Mill, it was one of five mills lining the River Kelvin in the Partick area of the city in the 1820s, and it was the last one to remain operational. It had a variety of owners over the years, but at the time it closed in 2013, it was run by Rank Hovis MacDougall.

This is my most liked MOC so far:

🔗 rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-19687

It'd be a great pleasure for me, if it would reach 2,000 views as this is a big milestone. So if you like the image, please check it out! Maybe you can even build it.

If you have the Bucket Wheel Excavator you can build this version:

A Tower Crane with the ability to insert new modules. In the real world it is called a "self-climbing tower crane". It is a concept and therefore does not have the top beam, but just the structure beneath.

Sticking to Finland for now.. especially considering it is "Vappu Aato" (the evening before Vappu, the Finnish May 1st celebration)

View of Särkänniemi Amusement Park from Näsinneula Tower. 23.7.2023, Tampere, Finland

Wikipedia: Näsinneula is an observation tower in Tampere, Finland, overseeing Lake Näsijärvi. It was built in 1970–1971 and was designed by Pekka Ilveskoski. It is the tallest free-standing structure in Finland and at present the tallest observation tower in the Nordic countries at a height of 168 metres (551 ft).

Sojoji – Tokyo Tower – TeamLab – Roppongi – Odaiba

Ce matin, nous avons exploré le quartier de la tour de Tokyo et de Roppongi. Nous nous sommes rendues au temple Sōji-ji, dont la porte principale est en travaux. Ce temple est également dédié aux dieux gardiens des enfants ; de petites statuettes coiffées de bonnets rouges y sont alignées. De là, nous avions une belle vue sur la tour de Tokyo, légèrement plus grande que la Tour Eiffel, mais que je trouve moins impressionnante. Ensuite, nous avons atteint le TeamLab Borderless, […]

A black and white film photo. Workers are disassembling the Moonlight Tower at W. 12 Street and Rio Grande Street, for what I was told by one of the crew, a refurbishment. Sunday, April 27, 2025.

Good Morning, Familiar Signal - Watched the sun come up over Diez Vistas this morning. We're getting into absurdly early sunrise season now.

A sunrise photograph of the west side of Diez Vistas, as seen from Deep Cove. Sun is just peeking out from over the mountains in the upper left of the frame, spilling light over the water and trees of the inlet. A signal tower (which I've shot many, many times before) is visible top right, highlighted by the remaining pre-dawn clouds behind. Bottom right shows the leading edge of a nearby pier.

🌪️Building a DIY Tornado Tower.

A tornado can be an awe-inspiring sight, but it can also flip your car, trash your house and otherwise injure you with flying debris. If you’d like to look at swirling air currents in a safer context, you might appreciate this tornado tower build from [Gary Boyd].

[Gary]’s build was inspired by museum demonstrations and the tornado machine designs of [Harald Edens].

<https://www.weatherscapes.com/techniques.php?cat=miscellaneous&page=tornado_machine>

His build generates a vortex that spans 1 meter tall in a semi-open cylindrical chamber. A fan in the top of the device sucks in air from the chamber, and exhausts it through a vertical column of holes in the wall of the cylinder.

This creates a vortex in the air, though it’s not something you can see on its own. To visualize the flow, the cylindrical chamber is also fitted with an ultrasonic mist generator in the base. The vortex in the chamber is able to pick up this mist, and it can be seen swirling upwards as it is sucked towards the fan at the top.
The tower in the background of this image is the Emley Moor transmitting station. For scale that is roughly 25 miles (40km) from where I took the photo.

On a clear day, it's visible from huge areas of Yorkshire.
