Shot of Andor season 2 episode 4 showing a very modern white, spiky, bridge-like structure on a wide open plaza inside a futuristic city. People are walking in the distance. That scene was definitely shot at the "Museo de las Ciencias Príncipe Felipe" in Valencia, Spain. The background has been replaced with a matte painting of a futuristic dome and skyscrapers.

Ein Foto und ein Rätsel (mit Auflösung):
Im Jahr 2013 gab es im Haus der Geschichte in Stuttgart eine Ausstellung über die RAF. Ich war dort und habe Fotos gemacht. Ein Foto zeigt dabei ein "Waffenversteck". Die Anwälte der RAF hatten, zumindest nimmt man das an, in Akten Waffen geschmuggelt, mit denen sich am Ende einige der RAF-Gefangenen selbst töteten.
Das Foto hatte ich auf Wikimedia Commons hcohgeladen:

When I was young, in the late 80s / early 90s, pornography was so hard to come by that any image of a naked man seemed exciting. Even Muybridge motion studies.
