Here is a little bit of unsolicited advice from one who has been at the bottom here more than once.....Powerlines are the biggest pain in the butt for all photographers.....they are considered a distraction in a photograph and if you only have basic editing, you can't take them out! So, by knowing they are the bane of all photographer's existance, a shot of just the powerlines just doesn't appeal to the majority, especially on a site like this where the folks are ultra-critical.

Just my 2 cents, for what it's worth and I'm just trying to help. :-)

Good lines. But a little basic. Not a really good attention getter.

Nice colors and a good fit to the challenge.

Improvement suggestions (MHO): Image is a little on the small side and lacks a "wow" factor. Sky is blown out which I find a little distracting also.

Not very interesting IMO. Maybe if the sky would look better...
Sorry

Welcome to DPC! One thing you shold always do is make sure you use the full size available to you when submitting a picture. People will generally score quite low for smaller shots.

If the diagonal lines were missing, it would be an interesting pattern. But I guess you couldn't cut the power in the whole area, right (-:

I like the pattern of the lines that are plaid like. Unfortunatly power lines are a popular subject so it seems a little drab when compared.
