Like a giant geometric sculpture, this powerline tower is one of many that march across the pristine landscape atop Bug Hill in Ashfield, Massachusetts.
I like the way you've composed this, Sunny. The power tower is like a monster out of one of those 1950s Japanese horror films. Is the stiffness and pain diminishing?
Unfortunately they run across the back acreage, in the Winter you can hear the snow sizzling on the lines, at night they are the hotel of choice for the Turkey Vultures.. Great shot, they really do look like Robots !
you did it once again, found a great shot of something no one would think of taking a photo of. even a power line can be interesting and pretty with the right photographer behind that camera.
Can you tell I am trying to catch up on my reading? Great geometric shapes. We had ice storms a few years ago take miles of these guys out. They had to totally redesign them so the wires would break periodically rather that have all the towers fall down like dominoes.
From the shores of New England to the Oregon coast, I would like to share some of the places that I've been and things that I've seen.
As we travel you may notice; there is an emphasis on Massachusetts...my home state, you will see a lot of barns...that I love, whether old, new or dilapidated, we are not traveling in any particular direction, and we may visit some places more than once.
Please enjoy my American Photo Journey and your comments are welcomed!

features the Far Away Farm in Ashfield, Massachusetts.
I was born in my grandmother's old mill house in Cornwall, England and came to the USA with my parents in 1958. My Dad was in the RAF and as a child I lived in many different locations in England and even the Rock of Gibraltar.
Massachusetts has always been home in the US except for a brief period when I resided in Idaho, giving me a chance to explore the Great American West. For nearly 30 years I lived on Cape Cod before my husband and I moved back to the mountains* of Massachusetts with our Goldendoodle Lucy, and our cats, Lilly and Molly. I am also the mother of a grown son.
*Some of you would call them hills but they're mountains to me!

Great shot of the transmission tower and lines Sunny, I love the perspective.
You are right Sunny, they do seem to march like anorexic robots.
Looks better in your picture than those invading our countryside.

Interesting picture, Sunny.... What would we do without all of these towers and eye-sores in our lives?????? We NEED them!!!

I can hear the hum of the electrons! :o)
We have a few of those giants too! Hope your back is better, Sunny.
Power to the people.
