Looks like you've spotted some OLD details!
The first thing that caught my eye was the old glass insulators. I have a few of those sitting on a windowsill.
Darla
It is very old and not in use. They always look sad to me.
Neat capture. MB
I like this picture! I especially like the glass insulators and the tree (vine) reaching up to the crossbar. Very well done!
Very original angle! It works extremely well, though - and I love the fact that it's disused and falling apart. What is it about decay that's so photogenic?
Great macro - That's a stretch at that height!
This takes me back to my childhood and the train lines behind our home... You captured it so well.
Tom
nice picture, it reminds me of when I was a kid. My dad was the definition of recycle. We spent a summer collecting cross arms and my dad built a fence around our yard with them.
So,
1. u got yourself a bucket truck
2. the electric company hired u
3. u got a honkin' 30x lens and a
quad-pod to hold it.
Whatever, it's a fantastic shot, the light gods were with u 2.
There you go again with a fantastic idea for an uncommon shot!
Ooooh, I LOVE that!!! I so love old things, and you made a very pretty close up from it!!
Beautiful composition, it's a pity that it's abandoned.
Léia
Well, that's another thing I ahve never thought of taking a photo of. . . writing that down to consider in my travels. lol
Lovely, E.G.
You know what the bird said who landed on an uninsulated wire on that very pole:
"Yikes! I got a charge out of that!"
Is a composition truly magnificent!
That's a neat shot.
Excellant shot EG.
Gary and I collected telegraph insulators for years. At one time we had 100's of them, and we have a nice collection now.

Wow! Very interesting - it doesn't look like it is functional now a days. Fascinating - reminds me of the posts of my childhood.
What a cool photo. I guess I should look up for macros more often!
Very nice shot. Simple yet effective.
That looks about as old as I feel some morns!
I love old stuff especially if it's still in use. Lovely macro!
Wow, I have never seen something like this. Great Capture!
Did you climb, climb, climb to get that? lol I hope not. Very cool!
Great shot! I am surprised that all the bits and pieces are still there when the pole is no longer in use!
