An Ominous Landscape

I was indoors all day today, editing. When I left the building well after sunset, it was raining lightly, with low overcast clouds. These high tension towers and the wires are always there, but on rainy days there is a "buzzing" from the high voltage present on the wires, so I looked up to see them against the sky. The mercury vapor lamps on the building and the mist added a strange contrast to the dark blue of dusk. It did seem to be an ominous landscape, indeed. Maybe it is just the latest news of another round of buyouts and layoffs. Maybe it is not the landscape at all...
