The City Daily Photo Bloggers theme for February 1st is "Power," a word that can be interpreted in many ways. I chose the "electrical" interpretation. I actually photographed this power pole at the first part of January when I went to Taliesin West to see their part of the Chihuly in the Desert exhibit. We don't see many power lines like this around the city. Almost all local power lines are now under ground. However, Taliesin sits in a sort of rural island so these power lines appear to bring power to the place. It's quite a contraption, isn't it?

Shocking!
ReplyDeleteHad one of those in the back yard when I was growing up. Underground is more reliable.
ReplyDeleteFairly common in the country here.
ReplyDeleteThey are everywhere here. We had the same idea for the theme, Sharon!
ReplyDeleteWe see them here too. Great shot for the theme.
ReplyDeleteWashington State, with their wind storms and now, has a shocking amount of above ground power. Phoenix is smarter.
ReplyDeleteGreat shot Sharon.
ReplyDeletePowerful! (I can't believe no one's said that yet, but Andy came close.)
ReplyDeleteMost of ours are underground here too except in the smaller rural towns they tend to look like that.
