20) Dams, transformers, transmission lines or whatnot, make a power-full outdoor shot.
these were a long way off but had to get that sunset in!
Pylons next to the motorway, both of which are lines of power, not always straight lines but lines all the same and vital to keeping things running smoothly, any interruption to it results in chaos.

Since Cleco abandoned the really thick crossarms used in the 90's, they've returned to using double arms for recloser poles.

These run from east to west all the way across the state. They run into Texas, turn north, come back through LA and go up to Arkansas
These are the only ones I've seen on Slemco's grid with insulators like this. They've probably not upgraded them expecting LUS to expand this way eventually.
This powerline cut in West Brookfield was at peak foliage when this photo was taken in mid-October. With it's bisecting stonewalls, exposed ledges breaking through patches of little bluestem grass, and aggregations of such early successional plants as juniper, highbush blueberry, sweet fern and winterberry, it's easy to not only get glimpses of what the central Massachusetts uplands looked like during the height of pastoral agriculture, but to see why these right-of-ways remain important islands of biodiversity on our modern landscape. This particular section of right-of-way supports such interesting species as American butternut, wild indigo and fern-leaved false foxglove, as well as such birds as field sparrow, indigo bunting, eastern towhee and brown thrasher.

the days are long, and they sing you a song
about how all your troubles have come
we hold it all inside, our sunlight ends
we'll never let it go, i think you understand
we drive around all the mystery towns
i can see it now, it's all in my head
staring down at the gravity ground
when you're this high up, you never wanna come down
when i was lost in your eyes, was i trying to find
a way beyond all the palm tree powerlines
(wooo... i'd do it again)
dreaming dreams of material things
i try to wake you up, i do what i can
let me take you to some places i've seen
down a two-way road, i know where it goes
when i was lost in your eyes, was i trying to find
a way beyond all the palm tree powerlines
