DescriptionThis image depicts a view of electric transmission lines near Paseo del Norte in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The transmission lines, connected by tall wooden towers, are leading into the Public Service Company of New Mexico’s Reeves Generating Station on Paseo del Norte. This station is producing large light-colored clouds of steam. In the far background a large portion of the Sandia Mountains is visible through the steam. A portion of a field dotted with small desert plants can be seen in the foreground.
