Pylon

I had to lie on my back for this one. Nettles, thistles' brambles, you name it I was lay in it.

Like the angle and composition, have a few shots like this myself.

The trouble with the B&W conversion is the sky being too dark, especially top left where the pylon merges into the sky

Great composition but I think with this B & W conversion you loose a bit to much of the impact of the iron work against the darker areas of the sky .

Thanks for the comments. Yes I think I went over the top with the B&W conversion. I was trying to make it really punchy.

For me, the clouds are too dark, which takes away the effect of the pylon. Great composition though!
