another sight seen on visit to France I thought the pylons reminded me of a Pink Floyd song

The mist was disappearing rapidly as I took this image, I took some time fiddling with the old Soviet MTO500 and only just managed to capture this before the composition was gone.

The MTO500 3M5CA is an f/8 reflector lens of about 550mm. I think this composition could have benefitted from zooming out slightly, but you can't do that with a fixed lens!

I saw a beautiful ICM last week and one of the comments asked with what else other than trees, would ICM work. I decide to find out. I got a shot I liked of part of a pylon, but then I got a bit carried away in PS...... after all it is Sunday - HSS!

A number of starlings congregating on a pylon at Swanscombe Marshes...

What a fall from grace it had since then.

I liked the contrast between barn and pylon; both steel, but different forms and purposes.

Near Faringdon , Hampshire.

Thanks Alan !

Think worth another visit.

Close to home.

A heavy frost.

Across the fields towards Long Marston.

Gloomy low cloud conditions up on Mill Hill, with the pylons fading from view.

National Grid’s Training Centre, in Eakring, north of Nottingham, has a representative selection of pylon types found in the UK. These are used to train overhead line staff in maintenance and repair work.

I finally got around to finishing him. Unfortunately, I didn't have sufficient time to photograph him this weekend since I was taking the ACT and seeing Doctor Strange on Saturday and I was busy cleaning my room on Sunday and ran out of daylight. I did set up a new photography area that should be better since it's right next to the window as opposed to five feet away from it, so hopefully this will work better.

 

As the teaser picture suggests, yes, Pylon does have a light-up eye courtesy of Power Functions LEDs, photos of that will come when I fully photograph him, but for now this is the only proper picture I have of him.

 

Parts usage was also a big component of building this guy, which is probably why he took so long. I wanted to incorporate as many odd, seemingly useless parts as I could while maintaining functionality. I think I succeeded since I managed to work in HF 1.0 torso and leg armor, Stars bits, and McToran arms. Whether it looks good or not, I'll let you all be the judge on that :)

 

In the story blurb I'm crafting for him, he's part of the same robotic warrior race as Spry , so I wanted to make him look similar enough that the two could be associated while making him distinct enough to be his own character. As opposed to the scout, TFP Bumblebee-esque idea I had for Spry, Pylon is a hulking brute that would rather smash his enemies head-on than take shots at them from a distance.

The moon was setting yesterday morning predawn as a backdrop to this pylon. February 14th, 2022.

Newgate Lane ,,,I went out to take pics of the snow before it all went, but it was too misty for much photography

If you can't beat the National Grid Pylons, then photograph them!! : -)
