lol We have loads of them here in Lincs ..mind you we probably have the same number as everywhere else, you can just see them more because it is so flat 
I have several pylon pics on flickr, they can be fascinating. Love those ones, against the setting sun really creates good sillouhettes

Thanks both - I have tried to shoot a pylon once before, but that was during the day and I couldn't get the wide angle I wanted at the time. However last night I thought they looked interesting with the sun setting behind them so took a couple of shots - I am fairly pleased with how they came out (especially since I was using my macro 
).

Lovely shots! Works really well with the setting sun
They can be so frustrating, especially when your would be perfect shot has a pylon or cable running through it

Good pics, GH, unfortunately the pylons are a necessary evil. Actually, I quite like them in photos and those are good ones you have posted!
