I wish you could hear the Buzz these things make. Very loud when your under them

Did this also in my photo challenge (road) detour. These powerlines are pretty common.

most of the time I curse power lines, but today I saw three in just the right light to appreciate their spiderweb beauty

Powerlines

Three power companies all involved with this set up.

this photo appears in ' COME-BACK FROG ', available to buy from my on-line bookstore at BLURB

Bridgewater, New Jersey

This was shot at f/16 I believe. SUPER sharp as you might imagine. See 100% crop below.

Ilford Delta 400

Dev. in Ilford LC29 (at 1:19 ratio mix) for 7.5min

This pole was built before the bridges were placed here. This intersection was just upgraded to an exit and the lines needed to be higher for the bridges to be built.

Hanna moved on and the sunset was colorful. I adjusted the colors to make the scene brighter.

This is a new substation going up. My guess is that the 138 and 69kv line will tap into this one.

PowerLine Series

Melbourne suburban sunset 09

These are some Entergy lines north of Scott with some doodad underneath. I'm not sure what it is but I think its for power regulation.

Across the Hanalei River and beyond an un-named but oft photographed waterfall, you can pick out the powerline and road.

Mizonokuchi, Kanagawa

The next pic has an image of the break.

Coop style insulators on these.

This pole had quite a dangerous lean to it.

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.

Memphis, TN

this is the rivercrossing at the Haringvliet bridge

its the highest rivercrossing in the netherlands

towering at 145/150 meters.

Ironicly the standard pylons are one of the smallest types used and this is the only line using this type.

LUS is our city run power company. This is one of their new poles with a metal crossarm. They are constantly changing poles.

If I'm ever lying on the sidewalk, left for dead in front of my apartment building, this would be what I'm looking at. This really is a dark series, isn't it?

They decided to go with sidemounted insulators, probably because the new pole is much further to the side than the old one.
