Birds flew around us and in a beautiful blue sky as we waited at the tracks for our train home.

In Hungary wires are under the earth not like this

Usually, I work hard to eliminate overhewd wires from my photos, often resorting to Photoshop to remove them when they interfere with what I am interested in showing. This is especially so when I am working on architectural shots.

 

We were visiting Clarksburg, ON on Thursday and I noticed all the wires overhead which caught my interest, especially with the dark blue sky and clouds behind them. So I decised to focus on them and see what I could do, intentionally putting them into the frame.

 

Now I am trying to figure out if they work best in colour or B&W. I can't say I have a real preference, although I am leaning towards the B&W images.

 

There are four shots in this series I would value your opinion and any critique on how the shots could have been improved.

The pigeons that hang out on the high tension wires by the Harmar bridge are always good for a few photos.

I never seem to tire of taking this photo.

I used the flickr logo colors. It looks happy :)

This is an atypical photo for me! I don't like wires or pylons and I think they really spoil a photo. I went out of my way today to take a shot of something I would not usually appreciate and this is it! I thought the misty background was lovely and would do well without the pylons in it, but being Cheshire it was extremely flat! It is actually a line of lots of pylons, but I have lined them up, because I thought it looked nice and it hid a few of them!
