Classic Analog Kansas shot- telephone conduit, textured wall, and a mysterious service door! Nice.

This is cool, Grant. The eye follows all the detail through the frame. The lines of the brick are a wonderful contrast to the curves of the piping and meter boxes.

Lines and more lines and since it is so much about the lines I realized how important the lines in the door become. If that were a flat area the whole flow of them would be curtailed. I can’t explain why (or it would take too long to do so) but in this image I again see a touch of humor – it has to do with the direction of those lines I think. Anyway terrific and a classic Grant!

That "good eye" you have has found you another fine combination of lines, angle and shapes that make you photos so appealing and successful. In this one I especially like the way the pull of the power line has bent the support post. Fine image.

Nice sense of graphic balance. Love the almost abstract nature of this.

The reason why I like these images so much is, they are presented ''as is'' perfection belongs to another category, but these have a quality of their own. Mellow light Grant.

The pipes and wires create a very dynamic impression on this image, well spotted.

You are the king of the simplicity... but it's not simple to create this kind of composition. I said, THE KING!

You really know how to make wires work for you. I learn a lot from watching you at work.
