This is pure photojournalism. If there was such a thing as newspapers anymore, it wouldn't be unusual for a reporter and a photographer to show up at a place like this for an environmental or economic or political or government story. Might just be a puff piece for Puget Sound Energy.
If it was me covering that story, that bus picture would have been my lead shot. The future of technology and the future of America. Money to be made pulling clean power out of the sky. Takes a little book learning, though.
There's no thread for that here. I'd need to post in 3 or 4 different threads to get half the eyeballs I'd get in a landscape thread. I could put it there. It's got foliage and sky. But it's not really in the spirit, and I respect the spirit. There's some spirit to cross posting too.
I rarely go out to shoot a thing, or even a type of thing. At least not to just chronicle its existence for people who already have an interest in pictures of that thing. The goal is always some approximation of art and I'd like to believe there's a wider audience.
Here's one that you probably already saw in the Wires thread. Sorry about that. And if you're in favor of green energy, you probably already understand the looming capacity problems we're facing putting new technology on an antiquated transmission system.
