Well, this was supposed to be the site of an ICM I'm working on conceptually, but none of those photos came out how I'd like, so I decided to go with the one in focus. I'll visit again in the coming days as I'm usually obsessed with these power lines, but I rarely take good shots of them that please my eye.
Today, I had two Covid tests (rapid and deep nasal swab) because I have lost a bit of taste and smell and have had a sore throat for the past few days. The rapid test is negative, and we'll get the result of the other in a couple of days. The Dr. really didn't do a good job of taking the second test, which left me with a bloody nose for 20 min. unfortunately.
But I'm negative for now, and I'll keep to home until I get better confirmation. It is unlikely I have caught it, but the lack of taste and smell had me worried.
My state is one of those states in the US that continues to promote "liberty" and "freedom" without many masks, so I stick to my home and my environs mostly--hoping some people will find it somewhere in their collective souls to do a simple good deed for themselves and others. It's just mindboggling.
Hope everyone had a nice Sunday. I did get my walk in (I do a 3.1 mile circuit that goes among about 5 office parks that are pretty much abandoned whenever I walk--so I don't encounter anyone when I do exercise).
I find them fascinating, too, but am never happy with the result. I know you will accomplish what you want. I might crop out the lower right arm. Just my opinion. I hope you get a negative result.
I totally agree re the crop and the sky and detail are wonderful. Scary re the loss of smell and taste. Hope all is well. I am horrified by the number of people here that we meet on the trails maskless
I am also oddly in love with photographing power and telephone lines. I love your comp and symmetry. Sending good thoughts regarding your test results. I understand your feelings regarding (what I call) the selfishness of the non-mask wearers. TN is the worst location in the country right now - how sad.
@linnypinny It is so distressing to see that there are many people out there who have staked their freedom on this particular selfish act that causes so much pain to others. I can only hope we reach herd immunity through vaccination and the diligence of every other American. We have similar states, so I know the pain!
@danette@jgpittenger I've done a crop. Hopefully that is better. I had to warp the original shot a bit to include the top pole number and cap, so that's why the original crop was there and I remember feeling like the bottom right was off at that point. Let me know if this is better!
I hope the other test also comes back negative. So many people here also don't wear masks although the law makes it compulsory. I can't believe the idiocy and selfishness of some people. No one is immune!

As far as your testing is concerned I hope everything comes back negative and you are just suffering from a cold
