Power

Weekly Photo Theme – Power Lines

This week I borrowed one of the daily photo themes over on Google+ for our weekly theme. It is a theme I have contributed to in the past and it is a little different as far as subjects go. It is power lines, which can include telephone poles, but typically a subject we landscape photographers try to exclude from our images. Contributing to the theme on G+ has forced me to see those general intrusions as something different. There can be a beauty to these landscape eye sores when looked at as the subject of a composition. You should search Google+ for #PowerLineFriday to see what I am talking about.
