The light was perfect for this shot, John. The subjects are beautifully illuminated, and stand out well from the clouds and the blue sky. I hope you have a great new week. All the best, Joe

Thanks, William. The title is part of my plan to improve the reputation of overhead wires.

I think the impression was increased by high zoom, Jaap. The camera I used for this one wasn't very good but it had lots of zoom

I've come to admire the human dimension these add to cityscapes and landscapes; they're an inescapable part of modernity! :)

Yes, when these poles went up society started changing much more quickly, I remember being struck in the 1980s by how when the hydro went off at work no one could work.

A very apt description, Léo. I've often been struck by the similarity myself when looking at photos of Asian cities.

Well, this is just stagnation, Marko. Putting the wires undergroumd would save enormous amponts of time amd money needed to deal with ice storms, and it would reduce the danger of them, too. But Torontonians have been too cheap to do it.
