Good concept. Fits the challenge IMO. Nice sunset. I like how the vanishing point of the towers goes into the heart of the sunset. Maybe it's just me, but I'm thinking this photo could be a little stronger with a slightly different framing/cropping. The top part to me seems a little weak. What I see is these nice lines from the wires, but then the way the 2 main wires go out one at the top and one appears in this perspective to go out the side. Also, I get a slightly unbalanced feel between the black at the bottom, the lovely golds in the middle, and then a lot of blue/gray at the top. I'm thinking that maybe cropping it to just a little above the top of the tower, that it would provide a little 'symmetry' , where there would be a little bit of black at bottom, lots of gold in the middle highlighting the main subject, then a little bit of blue/gray. Also giving a more flowing, continual feel to the lines of the wires. Just my opinion :-)
We all know that this is a "Leading Lines" challenge. If by saying "To power your home" only gives a differant perspective, and makes the titleing stronger.
Nice color, crop needs work buy not bad, nice sillouette, nice lighting, nice dof, overall nice
