Thank you for all the good comments.

I wasnt expecting such a high score and rank. I allmost didnt submit it at all. I had another in the Leading Lines challenges but at the last moment I dicided to submit this one instead.

Here is my original:

I took it at the local powerplant on a photo bicycle trip around my city.

Congrats on your ribbon...well done!

Funny story: When I asked you if you were participating in any challenge here at DPC you said, and I quote" yeah I send in one lala photo of some isolators at some power plant, nothing fancy"

Well I guess it wasn't all that lala :)

A really different take on the theme. I wouldn't have dare try this for the challenge for fear of being trounched!

Good job.

Very nic ephoto, and one of the few submissions showing how electricity has changed the world around us rather than just showing something that happens to be electric. Here's an 8 for giving me one less light bulb to look at.
