The Expeimental Hall


I've posted a few photos from where I work but I though you might like to see the experimental hall where it all happens and as Saturday was Diamond at Home where members of the public can visit the place I though you would like to see the view as they come in the building.. This is a stitch view of the place looking across the bridge.

You can see more of Diamond on www.diamond.ac.uk

Well, I am humbled by your photo. I did look up the web-site and am asking you to disregard my casual response to your saying you don't do Pinterest. "Welcome to the non techy world and proud of it." Then I hopped over to your blog and found that not only are you very "techy" you are a physicist! Now, if you could just explain String Theory. . . ."

It looks surreal. I am reminded of an old game "Riven," a sequel to "Myst;" some of the scenes look like your photo.

It's actually beautiful, this is where you work?

Billy Blue Eyes said...

Err I'm not a physicist, I'm a technician or Vacuum Technician to be precise. I'm one of a group people that built this http://spudsdailyphoto.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/the-diamond-storage-ring.html. Still don't have a Pinerest account though.

Heard of the games but my son is a game designer so could explain that one.

O yes and love the place. If you check the link you can see how it looked when I started at the place http://spudsdailyphoto.blogspot.co.uk/2013/04/s-is-for-synchrotron.html and a couple of comments back what I work on.

The building is round and looks like a spaceship from the outside.

Sometimes the world of "iron and steel" can be quite majestic. Case in point right here!

Looked very impressive being built.

Su-sieee! Mac said...

What a gorgeous place to work. A spaceship, huh? I can just imagine. If I look at this photo a particular way, I think I see eyes and the bridge is a nose. :-)

Could be because it's only two photos so a bit folded.
