I tried to make something out of nothing

Here was this huge, ugly microwave tower sticking out like a sore thumb. I looked at it through the trees and noticed a natural framing of sorts. I thought perhaps I could make it a little interesting. I think I missed the mark.

Remember the old saying Tom -- you can't make a silk purse out if a sow's ear. But, what the heck you tried. So good for you.

These types of shots; for me in the end help me to be a better photographer. Maybe a different angle or another side could make it more appearing?
BTW Pierre that's a great saying, made me chuckle.

I don't think there was any way you could have made this an enticing shot.
Whenever I run out of ideas and find myself shooting just about anything and everything with the hope something interesting may come out of it, then I know it's time to take a little break from photography. You can't force inspiration.

A good try. It frustrates me, too, when unnatural elements get in the way of a good photo.
