The West was won by armies of gigantic stick-like iron men - electrical pylons marching in formation across the majestic landscape.py-lon: chiefly British : a: tower for supporting either end of usually a number of wires over a long span b : any of various towerlike structures (Merriam Webster)

Cool shots of pylons.. they really do look like an army.
ReplyDeleteVery interesting post and nice shots.
ReplyDeleteWow! There are so many out there, marching to conquer.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. Does the power come from water, sun or wind?
ReplyDeleteIn this case the power comes from the Hoover Dam, so it's water.
ReplyDeleteNo way to resist them! Spectacular images, I like very much the light in the first, the perspective in the second and the incredible background in the third one. Another surprise set and a very good title!
ReplyDeleteThey are standing guard and have a magnificent view of rocky bluffs. Looks green there in the spring, W.
ReplyDeleteInteresting take on the modern world marching across the west. Beautiful part of the world.
ReplyDeleteVery clever title! Coincidentally I've (re)watched parts of this classic just 2 or 3 weeks ago on tv! :-) The landscape on the last pic is just gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSo many
ReplyDeleteWow!!
You have there many power ...... LOL
Amazing photo's :-)
These pylons were built by a french company, I recognize them immediately because they have a cat head form (look at the ears) the frenchs are the only once who built their pylons like that. But cats or not they are always ugly in a landscape !
ReplyDeleteI love how you photographed these monsters. They don't look this good here on Long Island!
ReplyDeleteVery impressive photos, dramatic.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally not fond of them, but they look graphically appealing here.
