What a shame modern man hasn't devised a way to prevent these leviathans from destroying our beautiful landscapes. We photogs have learned to live with them, haven't we?. Seems you were shooting in fairly bright light, ergo the high contrast. I like your composition, but may have preferred it a little less centered.
Nicely composed, and a nice balance in the blues. Good start to your walkabout, and a nice idea to use water as a defining element to narrow your selection of photos to post.
Power distribution poles not a favorite subject, but you've got to love the puffy white clouds, and the way the power lines and water on either side of the towers lead your eye to the far horizon. Very nice lighting on the fence in the mid foreground.
Nice leading lines and patterns. The ribbles in the water add texture and interest...I love the distant clouds and tree line especially. You can see a long distance!
