Blur due to drive-by, blowing sand, and heat waves.

This is a great shot. I especially like the one tower being in the foreground.

I have no clue why, but this picture grabbed my eye and would not let go. This is absolutely fantastic.

Very engaging composition - chaotic symmetry, if that's possible. :)

It looks a little scary. All those walking power lines coming forward. I like!

Ohmygoodness! How COOL! And they say there's no scenery over there. Just goes to show tho what the touch of a master can do to any scene.

The blur gives those indusrial looking powerlines an ethereal look.

I love this a lot! I look down those rows upon rows upon rows of towers and lines fading into the distance, then my eye jumps back to the sharp tower in the foreground. Fantastic composition!

Sorta of funny. Kuwait+middle east=oil, but look at all these power towers. They use that much electricity?
It looks like a sketch. The haze gives a good depth to the picture. Some of the most dramatic pictures I've ever seen have been taken in dust/sand storms.

a great shot. reminds me, in feeling, of a minor white image of insulators on a power line, called fleurs du mal - i'm assuming from the rimbaud...

excellent, threatening, vaguely triffid like.

(hah - how many comments refer to sci-fi and french lit in one??? '~P)

I think you are having us on. You aren't wherever you say you are, you are in the Central Valley and the dust is blowing! (So there... ;P)

Seriously good b&w.
