Pylons remind me of 'War of the Worlds', especially en masse and seen in the mist!
They could be seen as invaders in the landscape but they seem to me to have their own peculiar beauty.

Invaders in your stomach space in this case, that is.
"Space Invaders" was the name of an old video game in the 1980s in which an orderly formation of attacking aliens advanced downward toward the ground and your only defense was a gun that could be moved from side to side and fired electronic blip torpedoes upwards in order to hopefully wipe out the advancing armada of Invaders before they touched down onto the ground. The Invaders took the appearance of alien creatures (as much as the rudimentary graphics capabilities allowed at that time) some of which appeared as if they had eyes, appendages or antennae.
This trio of mini strudels from a local bakery resembled some of those invaders featured in that early video game.
The phenomenon of a pattern resembling a face or other recognizable thing is called pareidolia.
Whenever I see a city invaded by nature like this, I always remember classic book The Day of the Triffids from John Wyndham. I imagine that when natire started returning back to cities people abandoned, it looked a lot like this - although perhaps with more agressive plants in a background.

UP 1983, the Western Pacific heritage unit, invades the Missouri Pacific territory as it leads the southbound MPRASX through Villa Grove. Here, they are shown as they are releasing their brakes and preparing to continue south to Gateway Yard. This was the 3rd great train tonight as the MASCH had the UP 1989 (Rio Grande) trailing and the SGFABW had the IC 2460 (Blue Devil) leading.

Invader (born 1969) is the pseudonym of a French urban artist, whose work is modelled on the crude pixellation of 1970s–1980s 8-bit video games. He took his name from the 1978 arcade game Space Invaders, and much of his work is composed of square ceramic tiles inspired by video game characters. Although he prefers to remain incognito, his creations can be seen in many highly-visible locations in more than 65 cities in 33 countries. He documents each intervention in a city as an "Invasion", and has published books and maps of the location of each of his street mosaics.
Invader also makes indoor mosaics using stacks of Rubik's Cubes, and QR code mosaic works. (Wikipedia)
The latest in Invader technology. This particular ship contains a small rover for the pilot.
I actually built this before I saw pictures of the new Blacktron Cruiser GWP, so any resemblance is coincidence. Heck, when It wasn't even intended to be like the original Invader either.

The modern apartments of Vauxhall, London, are a striking set of buildings sitting on the River Thames. They have a somewhat 'alien' like appearance.
Enjoy! :)
