Straight Up

From Below


This is one of many cell towers in Haninge. They are all equally ugly. But if you stand at the bottom of the tower looking up at the sky it gets a bit better. I have taken a similar photo before with a point and shoot but this was shot with the new Canon.

Skywatch Friday.

  1. You're right Steffe, this perspective against the blue and white sky, takes it to a whole new level. Great shot.

  3. Very cool image, complex shapes leading the eye toward heaven. I don't think there are any cellular telephone towers in heaven itself.

    No money to spend on lenses at the moment, so I am using the EFS 18-55.

  16. Great eye and great capture with your new Canon. The clouds help make this and interesting shot. I can't help but think about all the data and $$$ that goes up that white hole in the sky.

  18. New Canon? Fantastic. I've always used Nikons but have a Canon S95 (P&S) and am thinking of a Canon DSLR for my next camera...

    I think you've done what can be done with a cell tower...and you've done it well.
