The switchyard above the canyon

On a bare, rocky hilltop above the canyon, a switchyard spreads out in a thicket of steel lattice towers, gantries and wires, with small buildings and equipment among them; a tall tower with insulators stands at the left, and a man in dark clothes stands at the white railing of a concrete deck in the foreground.
