Visual Pollution of Modernity in Antigua Guatemala

p4120864793-4-3718171-4594314

Don’t you agree that modernity usually comes with visual pollution, especially in colonial Antigua Guatemala. Nevertheless, I have tried to capture power lines in creative ways in the past. How sucessful I was with Electric Wire Grid plus VolcanoesWonderful Sunset plus Power Lines and The Webs We Weave is hard to say; you better judge for yourself.

Who can tell me where one can find this cellular tower and power lines?

  1. Well Rudy, todays picture is the best of the power line collection; crisp and clean transformer bordered within a frame of straight line cables…a framed picture within a picture! I think you’ve done as good a job as could be done, since there is no doubt that electrification in a town like La Antigua is always going to be aesthetically damaging. Within modern developments, the tendency is to run underground electrical services; some of these also in La Antigua, I understand? Maybe a picture of what can be achieved from Gravileas/Jacarandas or other accessible condominium?
