 My first member challenge!

Took a lot of different pictures, but this one seemed to stand out above the others. I liked the negative space and the clean lines. Don't think it will be in the top 25%, but I'm still proud of it.

Edited in Photoshop CS:
- Cropped (to remove gray line above 3 black lines)
- Cloned to remove some tape hanging off one of the wires, and a portion of a background wire at the top right of the pic).
- Set levels to bring out the blue and darken the blacks.
- Sharpen
- That's pretty much it.

Hope you like it.

I found this image interesting. The subject is boring but the composition makes up for it, as does the focus and POV. Well done crop. I think this is probably the best of the powerlines images. 8

Great crop! Power lines are tough to make look interesting but you succeeded.

The best power line shot i've seen this challenge, very clean and crisp and I think any cloud would have taken away from the shot. 7
