This electricity pylon on the outskirts of Limoges obviously has some strong lines (sic) in it. However, when I converted it to monochrome, inverted the image and then reduced the exposure of the background sky, the result is, I think, quite er…. powerful.

This rather stark, quasi-abstract image obviously requires some explanation. It’s a skyscape of course, but the cables are what carry the electricity from the nearest substation – about three miles away – to the outlying hamlets, including Tranquility Base.
These cables are strung from a long line of concrete posts that run all the way along the side of the road. Except in this case the post has been replaced by what can only be described as a forked tree branch, incongruous among the concrete. I suppose they know what they’re doing.
The chemtrail of the plane passing overhead is important in adding depth and context to the image.
