I often try to avoid pylons when taking photos of views. However I can see they have a certain majestic beauty in the right setting.
Pylons signifying Virginia Tech’s core values - Brotherhood, Honor, Leadership, Sacrifice, Service, Loyalty, Duty, and Ut Prosim (that I may serve)
Not too sure about this one, the jpeg conversion seems to have resulted in a bit of sharpening that is a bit annoying. Plus I cannot make it look straight even though there was a spirit level on the camera at the time.
But I like pylons.
I saw this interesting sky near Rockbourne which provided a
nice backdrop to the pylons.

I guess you don't really need me to tell you that the sun was shining on the pylons as a storm was brewing.
The sun was at just the right spot to the west and left of the image. It was now casting it's light on both the train and the pylons below that once formed a wooden bridge. I was on the southern shore waiting for the train to pull into position.
Saturday Self Challenge
I normally avoid getting these in my photos, they’re not very pretty, but are a necessity that we have to live with. As soon as the challenge was posted I had the idea that one of these might be an ideal subject. The hardest challenge was the weather, it’s not been great, and finding one that was relatively easy to access on level ground and get underneath was a bit of a problem. Thursdays daily lockdown exercise walk provided the ideal opportunity., so here it is, a rather ugly electricity pylon with more than a few diagonal lines.
Thank you for your visit and your comments, they are greatly appreciated.
I like the word pylon, ever since someone mentioned it in a comment around here I believe and I had to look it up. It has a certain feel to it, genuine and synthetic at the same time. That's all.
