19th century home life was pretty much all manual labor. There was no electricity for any of the appliances.

The map is wrong, this is not in Bexley, but in Palmers Road, New Brighton. Bexley is the other side of the Avon River.
Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make.

These Utility boxes are on a lot of the corners in Ithaca, NY and are painted by local artists.
A small spaceship I imagine being some sort of exploratory vehicle operating out of a larger space station. The build was a fun vessel for messing with angles possible using cheese slopes,
A local power utility station in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. I like the way a long lens can flatten a scene and create a sense of chaos in an image. Here, the out of focus posts are fairly close to the camera, whereas the utility station is quite far away.
One day in June, I decided to load up a couple of old cameras with some 135 format, black and white, film. One was a Nikon FTn with a 35 mm lens that I gave to me daughters. They are seven and nine years old, and were interested in learning some photography. I loaded a Spotmatic 1 for myself. I planned to shoot the whole roll with a 300 mm lens, but some of the shots were taken with other lenses.
Check out an album containing more of my photos shot in 2018.

I spend a fair amount of processing time removing utility poles, cables and lines from the background of photos. At best I find them distracting and often they work against my storyline of remote and desolate locations. Not that power lines don't exist in remote locales. It's just that for me, unless the power lines-poles play a part in telling the story, it's just visual clutter that detracts from the overall image. So I shoot around them whenever possible, either to minimize their presence, or make it easier to digitally remove them later. But sometimes it's useless, and this image is a case in point. I suppose I could have gotten rid of the background poles (although it would have been painstaking where they overlap the clouds), but decided not to bother. For one thing, I needed a photo with a very glaring pole in order to illustrate this narrative. And two, the presence of the poles doesn't really lower the impact of (or reason for taking) the photo. My main thought here was to show the striking, high contrast landscape that seems to dominate sunny days at this point in the year. The low sun angle seems to capture a million points of texture, and even the shadows seem alive. That story would be the same here, poles or no poles. I love how the pine boughs help frame the top of the photo. I stood here for quite a while, studying the light and working with the composition and exposure. The trick with these is to come up with a solution that holds the sky detail as well as the shadows, and produces a dramatic lens flare.
For the Dept. of Homeland Security's Federal Protective Service Police. The FPS has been switching to the Utility Interceptor as of late, to replace the older Tahoe's.
engine lonnings in carlisle is pylon city. i would like to formerly apologies for the volume of pylon and pylon related image i will be uploading this week!
Really old build, like from almost three years ago. I was really happy with it when I built it, just never came up with a name I liked until I tried some more today. Happy to finally post it now though!! Expect a scene soon too, I've been working on one and I'm really liking how it's turning out. Check out my instagram (@legomania211) for updates on that and any other LEGO stuff.

It probably doesn't mean anything to anyone but me, but I feel very good about this new utility pole. I reported the old one as broken to our local power company because it was bending more and more each day and if/when it fell it was going to close a major road and take power out for a lot of people. The next day they did a temporary repair and less than a week later they replaced the pole.
