This was shot on Mount Wellington, Hobart in Australia. The spire is part of a research / communications station although I don't specifically know what this spire does.
I do know that weather measuring equipment is on the mountain. The road is part of the access to those stations but also more commonly a road to the tourist car park to take in some breathtaking views of the city.
The shot was taken in infrared in morning light as a cloud came up the side of the mountain creating a general fogginess
i lile to research about mysterious matter.
this is impressive
