A wet, grey sort of day here in the Valley. Was sitting in my car outside an office building before a meeting and saw this arrangement of insulators through a rain-spattered windscreen. I've always been fascinated by the power grid and all the associated hardware. Of course, for a while there California was critically exposed through not having enough of the stuff (electricity,that is) but ultimately the market and the legislature have seemingly got past the problem, mostly though "fast-tracking" applications to build new plant. Would love to have the chance to photograph around some local power plants and distribution centres but in this day and age even showing up outside such a place with a camera is likely to get you arrested. Topic for another post but why does anyone in a uniform think that taking pictures of something is an obvious indicator of nefarious intent?
