Power

I spent last night on the edge of suburbia in the home of a cousin and his family. Not far from where they live march this great line of overhead transmission wires. It's a great big swathe, which the locals use as a throughway for non motorised transport and to walk their dogs. From the warning signs, beneath the wires are oil pipes.

Just visible in the distance on the middle left is a tall 'chimney' with flame shooting out the top, another part of edmonton's energy economy.
