Nice contributions!
I am preuming the glass fins are for cooling

Due to Australia's hot climate, and climate change
I have "Imitation Grass" (plastic) in my front garden, and Alfesco.

If the weather is hot, and I am wearing my rubber slip ons,
when I attempt to open the steel gates, I spark.
Gives me a huge boot.
Indicating the insulation of rubber.

Hmmm. It means us human are electrified easily and being earthed without noticed? I remember that I was sparked by huge green plastic net hung in a gymnasium at school, in dry winter day. What I wore were training suits with synthetic fibre and rubber sole basketball shoes...

Great photo and diagram, rod222 - insulators are visible part of hidden energy. And I felt dryness of Australia together with my recent memory of a TV drama "The Tourist".

Three stamps issued in the set, same design but different color and value. Here are the three on a registered cover sent from Phnom Penh to Paris:
