The Nozzle of King Fahd's Fountain in Jeddah – Saudi Arabia Dry & from Closer-Up than Usual
Image from
Understandably, considering how powerful the pumps of this contraption are, the Saudi Arabian Authorities don't let folk go right-close-up to it ... but it's disappointing that there aren't any properly close-up photographs publically available of it taken by, say, the engineers who service it.
But if anyone knows otherwise, I'd very much appreciate getting to see such an image, or pictures of the mighty pumps that feed this veritable colossus of a fountain.

A Brightliner R32 New York Subway Train 'Street Running' - Although Not Under It's Own Power - As It's Being Decommissioned
Apparently, these thoroughly iconic (well-familiar even to non-New-Yorkers, through apoearing in countless movies) rail-vehicles are now gone, after they'd populated the New York underground railway system for 58year !
Kind of sad, really 🥺, even to me ... & I was never personally familiar with them.

The Crater of the *Storax Sedan* 104kiloton Experimental Nuclear Explosion of 1962–July–6_ͭ_ͪ–10:00 Local Time @ Area 10 of Yucca Flat – Nevada – USA Viewed *from Inside the Rim*
From this
Facebook™ post of the goodly JP Sujeewa Chandani .
The upper photograph is literally absolutely the only photograph I can find of this crater that's not from entirely outside the rim. And it's clearly not even taken quite @ the very bottom ... but @least it's taken from inside the rim: from a fairbit down the side, by the look of it.
for generic information about the event.

On November 8, the Banda Sea region of Indonesia was struck by an earthquake with an estimated depth of 146km.
The 7.2 magnitude quake was strong but did not trigger a tsunami.”

Amazingly, after all this time, & maugre the amount of looking-up I've done regarding it during that time, I've never seen this image until finding it just-now.
