The bottom is a Slemco circuit that crosses perpendicular to the twin Cleco circuits.

i love the way powerlines cut up our world into neat little sections.

When we moved here I began admiring these lines in the late afternoon during walks with Belle. I want to capture them one day glowing orange in the late, low afternoon sun. This wasn't the day, but I'm beginning to come closer. This particular shot reminds me of some of my recent light-illuminated spider webs.

Supporting the helicopter running the lines from tower to tower.

Dynamically generated utility poles with randomly generated powerlines. Initial study for a project Id like to flesh out to include a large variety of poles, consistent wire creation that spans several nodes, the occasional flock of lazy birds, and audio responsiveness.

Test video to come soon.

Can you guess which direction the wind was blowing during the last hurricane.

Powerlines, Taken with Samsung Galaxy...

Airmen watch as Airman Jeffrey Hann and civilian Timothy Snyder, both members of the 355th Civil Engineer Squadron, fix a broken power line on Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, Ariz., July 16, 2012. (U.S. Air Force photo.Airman 1st Class Christine Griffiths)

PowerLine Series

An older Entergy line that was upgraded to accomodate the new substation

Taken with my Panasonic GF1 with a Pentax-M 50mm f/1.7 lens, using an adapter from fotodiox.

These old LP&L poles (now Entergy) have been out of use for years. They run into the swamps of Southeastern LA. With no maintenance these were easily damaged during Hurricane Gustav last year.

Powerline, Peary Street, Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia

These were all built with very thick single crossarms for deadends.

No wind at all. Even the stars are reflected in the water.

See where this picture was taken. [?]

Half-assed award nominee. This is a powerline that would be laying across the road outside my parent's neighborhood, if not for the length of PVC pipe.

This was built by Mississippi Power when they came help Cleco rebuild after Hurricane Lili in 2002.

Before they turned the spotlights on the tower of St. Cecilia Catholic Church

These are both Cleco's lines. The distribution lines in the foreground used to belong to a small cooperative called Teche Coop. Cleco bought them out in the 90's.

Metal LUS poles with metal cross arms.
