Looking behind the scenes of something fascinates me as much as the "visible" thing, sometimes even more. I like looking inside a computer, or how a movie is made, and even looking at a house being built just up to the point before the drywall.

Today I'm fascinated looking at this empty stormwater retention pond, because I can see the bottom and get an understanding of how much water it can hold and how it flows around.

Maybe that's exactly why I chose to work in #ITInfrastructure.
