 When making landscape photos around here, it's always hard to avoid these lines. I made the reds a little brighter here.

An interesting image of something we all try and avoid. Don't know how many images i havn't liked, or have closed out, powerlines from.........
A shame you didn't have a bright blue sky day here. The overall impression of the image is very grey. You have a good tonal range from balck through to bright in the image, but the grey sky means that much seems to blend into it, instead of the lines and patterns jumping out from the background.

yes .. same around here too .. you see the most beautiful scene from the road, but the power lines are a distraction and not attractive .. to get a shot without them you'd have to go into private property which i dont like to do .. its a great shot you've taken here making the power lines your subject .. :)

I agree... trying to keep these out of a shot is quite a feat at times and I've deleted many a shot because I haven't liked having a power line cutting through it :P
You've framed this so nicely, great job making something that if often annoying into something pleasing to look at!

True here as well - lots of power lines. But nothing compared to the ones in Kuwait, by the way.
