Subject definitely lends itself to B/W, so exploring and finding something interesting works well. Shooting for the highlights in this capture, creating a dark image, does make it work. I am not sure there is anywhere for the eye to land on something that stands out, although maybe that is what you were going for, as there is repeating patterns of three. I also notice lots of white edge banding, which could be controlled more in processing, yet maybe that is intentional for you to create separation within the blacks.

Another interesting addition to your power line images, Gill. Nicely done.
