I can't show you my office for security reasons, however I can show you the view. This was taken December '14 so the new Elizabeth Quay has changed a lot since then.

Gorgeous view! Has anything been put on the undeveloped property to block your view?
Nope nothing tall. It's being developed into a marina-type area with restaurants, small shops etc. I believe there are plans for a hotel/office building but I don't know where it's going or the height.
That's great! It seems as though you're high enough that unless it were going next door you would still have a great view of the bay. I'm in San Diego, CA and have been in some offices that have the most incredible views. There are a few seats in our library that have a slight view of the harbor but nothing that really provides the inspiration we sometimes need to overcome a case of writer's block (or procrastination).
Here's my cozy little workspace. To the left is my main work rig, Dell Precision running dual U2715H monitors. in the corner is late 2012 Mac Mini, which is used as my DeployStudio server. And the 27-inch 5K iMac is its replacement. I havent had much time to play around with the iMac yet.

Updated studio photo: Thanks to some recent composing work I was able to add new gear to my "working environment", but now I really am out of room! Also, the guitar and bass is usually not sitting there; I usually have them out of the way, along with all of my acoustic instruments not shown in this photo.
it's actually the reusable grande cup...
Since it is FINALLY cold in San Diego, I just bought my first reusable HOT cup from Starbucks a couple of weeks ago! (Although, it carries my Keurig coffee from home more often than it does Starbucks refills.)

The vent below the optical confused me. My 2009 doesn't have that.2010 Mac Pro on the left, G5 on the right. The book is covering up the upper optical opening

Repairing friend's G5
Because I can't work (I need to be 18yo to work), this is basically the most productive thing I do ^^ (even if I don't usually earn money by doing so, I usually do it for free when it's for friend or family)
(Yes, there's a screen behind the G5 XD)

Lol that's not messy. You support (or use) iSeries applications I'm guessing based on those green screen windows in the middle.
Yeah, that's about as messy as it gets at my desk.
And yes, we use the iSeries, currently 7.1 throughout our whole building. We build menus and options for each department to use, use it to maintain our RPG and SQL programs that run everything in the building. I also spend a lot of my day building queries for folks and running journals to find out what they broke.
Not something you see everyday. We're about 3 months out from phasing our iSeries out completely. We have a hosted app running at the software vendor/developer's data centers, so our last system was payroll. We previously ran a system called DISC on it for our sales systems, inventory, etc. 20+ years on the same software, but the developers were slowly retiring or in a few unfortunate cases dying.Yeah, that's about as messy as it gets at my desk.
