My group is responsible for setting up the monitoring for Shaw Communications. We take care of everything from our National Network down to monitoring of cable equipment for a neighbourhood.

Set up is a piece of RF-45 (CAT 5) network cable laid over fiber optic lighting on a Santa Claus.

It's a nice shot, but it doesn't really shout about your occupation.

Like the colors and lighting! A beautiful way to portray a rather dull subject (cables). Well done!

Very nicely done image, I enjoy the colours. However I think the CAT5 needs a tad bit more sharpening and a schooch less light.

I beg your pardon, this shot makes network administration look like a galmourous thing... you total *liar*! lol
Great shot, really. Nice light, the fiber looks almost like fireworks. You probably would have got a nicer shot without the CAT5, but it looks like a million bucks anyhow.
