Very dramatic and intriguing image Bob. I love the lines and contrasts. Really draws me in to take a closer look. Thanks for sharing!

Very nice Bob. Those low lying clouds set this scene apart and the poles make you follow them to the summit.

a well constructed & composed shot, the high contrast and darker tones make for a very dramatic feel, the line of poles folding back on itself, the mountains & clouds all interesting... what a view from your campsite
cheers
CC.
I thought it had a lot to look at CC, when we get tired or it starts to get cold at our campgrounds we just head South. Life is Good. thanks Bob

Bob, we full timed for over 8 years in a Monaco. Left the road last May. Miss the life style.

We're going on 10 years Steve, it is the best thing we ever did and it is going to be hard to settle down one of these days.

and we followed the dirt road about half way up the mountain Susan, that's where we saw the herd of wild mustangs

I have no idea why they would set such tall poles, it is a fairly desolate area and only a single substation, so not much will be hung on them.
