Picture taken just as you drive in to the Brecon Beacons at Garnlydan.This line of pylons go right across the moors at this point.This shot was hand held,had to be quick to catch the ray of light moving across from left to right.
Boosted the image a little in curves.

Hope you like this shot and thank you for looking in.

Cracking capture Tom. Very well seen and an inspired choice of composition. Don't know how you feel, but I think this is one of your best? Personally I think cropping about 50% of the foreground away makes it even stronger.

It's a fine dramatic image of the power lines, I hate these things with a passion so I'm not overly impressed. Good work my friend but not a favourite image for me.

All the very best
