One Minute After Midnight
(銅鑼灣 香港)

(Details In The ) (Composed by Human)

This is a colour, long exposure, night time street photo in portrait format of a city street scene photographed from above displaying motion blurred trams, cars and people. Causeway Bay, Hong Kong (2014). The camera is positioned on an pedestrian bridge about five metres above the street and angled along a fifty metre, straight section of road before the road bends out view to the left. Under the camera and extending away into the distance is a pair of rail tracks embedded into the street. A few metres to the left is a further, parallel pair of tracks. In the centre of the image and partially blurred, is the front of a yellow double deck electric tram. The front of the tram is slightly transparent with parts of the street visible underneath. The dark, back of the tram extends away from the camera perhaps ten metres marking its passage along the street before it stopped. On the left side of tracks is a further tram, this one is purple and not as ghostly and transparent as the first. Th

OSKALOOSA, Iowa

"Feuerwehr (ohne Opfer)"

Many historic fire hydrants in the USA are stamped with "OSKALOOSA". This was originally the manufacturer in Iowa before the company was bought out.

This specific hydrant is located in , and it is yellow. In the US, hydrants are connected to the public water grid. Red hydrants are private - belonging, for example, to supermarkets - which means they have to maintain them themselves.

The hydrant is closed, making the photo completely casualty-free for today's "Fire department (no casualties)".

A low-angle night photograph in Las Vegas with a bright yellow fire hydrant in the foreground on a patch of gravel. Behind it, an asphalt street shows light trails from passing cars. In the distance, the Strat tower is illuminated with red and purple lights against a dark sky. Other city lights are visible on nearby buildings. The hydrant text is readable: "AWWA," "GLOW," "OSKALOOSA," "IOWA," and "200PSI."
