  2. What a fascinating photo. Lots of work went into putting all those poles and wires in place.

  4. I know another Canadian who calls these hydro poles. That is so interesting. You know, those lines will carry electricity made from anything . . . coal, nuclear, gas OR hydro. Language differences are fascinating.

  5. Jack,

    The company that supplies most of the electricity to Ontarians is named Hydro One...and used to be called Ontario Hydro. :)

  7. Come on, EG....You can walk that bridge if I can. It is OK when you are on it alone. When I stopped the other morning in all of that fog, I just had to walk out...and that was when I saw the replacement boards. Trust me, someone did that out of pocket. I know darn well the state or county did not pay for it. Actually it is a pretty secure one. I wouldn’t fool you :-) I really like your shot of the hydro poles. They are really impressive...so big. Any pictures with lots of the linear in them are ones I really like.

  8. Nature vs. civilization. Geometry vs. the simplicity of sky. There's a lot to think about in this photo. Love the sunset colors, too.

  22. I quite like taking pictures of these, but I hate it when they get in the way of a scene of something else!
