UPDATE: ALTO Tower Page Hi-Res Photos
So I took the time to re-process the photos from my 2004 trip to ALTO tower that formed the core of my 2011 blog post about the tower and its interior. The old photos had been edited for a 2004 web standard of 100-200k file sizes. Although only taken on a 3MP camera, that still meant I could use the full resolution available without blowing up the page load time.
In addition, I streamed two photo processing sessions where I talked about the history of ALTO and the story of my visit to the tower along with all sorts of interesting factoids and hijinks.
Yeah that's right, I've getting into live streaming! Who says one can't squeeze content from a stone 😏
