A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts four tall, weathered wooden posts rising from the bottom edge against a cloudy sky. The tallest post on our right tilts toward the edge, while those on our left lean away from the center. In the lower middle ground, a utility pole with ornate cross-arms and thin wires stands against wispy clouds. The sky transitions from dark charcoal at the top to lighter gray below.
