This was captured with a DSLR and a 45mm shifting lens.
This “portal” type transmission pylon, looking like part of an army of somewhat menacing giant robots, is part of the Pacific AC Intertie, one of the two major power transmission trunks running up and down the western US. It can carry about 5 gigawatts of electric power.
Do not touch.
@mattblaze@federate.social only one gif comes to mind.
