Avoiding arrest. This time. Dryden, ON July 2022 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
Exhibit A: this lovely transmission tower. On a perfectly clear morning, it called to me from the sky, a veritable beacon of technology that usually fades into the background of modern life.
But you know me: nothing fades. And nothing is too trivial.
The problem was one of location: it sat in back of the local Bell building. I didn’t technically see any no-trespassing signs, but I was rather sure the folks who work there wouldn’t take kindly to strangers walking around the property.
But I was having one of those visions of mine, and I really wanted the shot. So I wandered out back and worked as quickly as I could.
In the wake of The Great Rogers Meltdown of 2022, it makes sense - to me, anyway - to shed a little light on the hardware that (usually) connects us across this vast country and beyond.
Even if I have to break a rule or two along the way.
