Help needed - Pictures of Electricity Pylons for autistic son.

[PylonsPylonsPylons]

Namechanged for this as this will out me to anyone who knows me!

My autistic son is fascinated by electricity pylons. He wants one for Christmas!!! I've got him some models to build but I'm also trying to put together a photo book of pictures of pylons. If anyone lives near some pylons or is out and about and willing to take some photos I would really apprecate some extra pictures.
I've got lots from my area but a wider variety would be great - any overseas ones would also be appreciated.

Are you getting a digital photo frame to upload all the pics OP? Maybe a calendar made up of them too.

Hahaha - I meant, take your pick, not pic!!

Marking a place.
There's a massive pylon in the middle of scrubland in the next village to me. I'll get a shot of that and PM you. It's huge and would make a cracking shot with the right light.

I want to make up a hard cover photo book so he can carry it around with him! He has learning difficulties and just likes looking at them.

I already have some models for us to make together.

Thanks for all the great suggestions

He sounds right up my street. Pylons and wind turbines, love them. We have a few nearby, will try for pics.

Contact Little Blue Cup, this is the sort of thing they do really well, and I'm sure they will get responses from all over the world for you.

Postin to bookmark if I’m out and about tomorrow I’ll see if I can take some pics.
I love pylons as well. I have a colleague who calls me Ms Pylons

I belong to a couple of local support groups in my area. Would you mind if I shared your request on those (South East). I would ask for the photos to be sent to me and I could then forward on to you with the address you have given here.

Our children's interests can be very special to them and they need all the support they can get from adults they dont know.

greenlanes feel free to share, I have an email address just for this [email protected]

Do you want power stations too or just pylons?

Hard cover photo book sounds awesome. I'd Google areas that are specific to 'unusual one's', and give specific shout out. Apparently Essex ones are different in some areas? (based on a quick Google). We're pretty rural and if wind turbines were his thing then I could contribute in droves 😁 Will keep eyes peeled and phone photo ready for anything 'interesting' that may appeal though.

A new transmission line from Beauly to Denny was opened in 2015. It comprised pylons taller than the usual - up to 65m. More info here:

Perhaps there are brochures etc that your son would like.

Don't know if there are pics/cards other than the low res ones available online. There may also be pylon videos etc on YouTube.

In Orlando, there's a Mickey shaped one:

Story book but may not be the right age group

Thank you to everyone for your help and suggestions!

Do you still want some? I took a few yesterday out on a walk, only on my phone though so not sure they're the greatest...
