Description
These images feature the structural lattice of high-voltage transmission towers, often referred to as pylons or electricity line supports. Photographers are drawn to these industrial objects for their complex geometric patterns and the way they create strong leading lines that draw the eye toward a vanishing point. The shots vary in perspective, utilizing low angles looking up against the sky, upward views from beneath the structure, and perspectives looking down through the framework of one tower into another. These structures are essential components of the electrical grid used to transport power over long distances. The group is united by the visual motif of linear infrastructure and the abstract shapes formed by steel beams against the sky.
