The image shows a workspace with two computer monitors, a desktop computer, keyboard, mouse, and other electronic devices. The foreground features a wooden desk with several cables and peripherals. The background includes a wall with acoustic foam panels and a window that looks onto what appears to be a modern cityscape. The location is a radio control room in Cape Town, South Africa. There is a small, almost hidden, light under the desk illuminating a VGA connection. There is also a handwritten note with instructions regarding the radio equipment, reminding users not to change any settings, except for designated operators on Wednesdays.
