Telco Towers

Some feedback that I received earlier in the week was to replace all of the telephone pole images with images of cell towers. I liked this idea because I didn’t feel that the telephone poles really fit in to the book, but I did like the idea of what they represented. The cell towers were perfect though, because they facilitate the internet, which is how I communicate with my partner. So I went on a mission to photograph every cell tower within a 5km radius of my house (there are still restrictions on travel distance in place due to COVID.) There were apparently 7 towers within this radius, so I jumped in my car and started driving around to photograph them. Some of them were hard to access, so I ended up driving in loops around them until I could get close, then had to get out and treck to their bases. It felt very shady, but was also exciting! I think that the cell towers actually fit in well with the rest of the work, so I am glad that I was able to capture lots of them this day. (Also, they are all so unique in their shapes- I found that quite interesting.)
