This month's pylon, published on Valentine's Day, is notable not just for the usual pylon but also for the heart shaped hole in the clouds overhead. The picture came courtesy of Lisa at Nan's Nice cakes and was taken last June. With the heart shaped hole in the clouds it seemed a pity to use…

Happy New Year to pylon fans everywhere! This month's pylon(s) comes from South Africa and is yet another another addition to the 'pylon pictures taken out of the window of a moving vehicle' category. I took it in December whilst on a family holiday in South Africa and the pylons can be found near Stellenbosch,…

Another month has passed me by and I'm posting this pylon in the last few days of November so that it is there for the whole of December. I had good intentions on my return from Japan (see October's pylon) but time slipped through my fingers and so once again it is a case of…

This month's post is the 50th pylon to feature on Pylon of the Month since it began back in June 2008 (at least for me; there was a website of the same name that insipred me as detailed in the 'About' section of the blog). With the Scottish Indepedence referendum due to take place…

There will always be a place on Pylon of the Month for the snatched pylon pictures taken through the window of a moving vehicle, but this month's pylon is most definitely one of the most artistic to have featured on the blog. With the metallic sky in the background and the contrast with the brown…

After a break for the start of the academic year in September, Pylon of the Month is back with the first of the autumn international pylons. This month, we in Bulgaria for the first time with another pylon sent in by a fan of the website. For those who have visiting all the pylons of…

It's that time of year again when I have to select the best pylon picture from my holiday snaps. In some previous years, this hasn't been difficult because I only took one photo but this year my cup runneth over. I could have gone for the close up with the sea in the background, or…

This month's pylon comes to you from the M5 motorway. It follows in the fine tradition of pylon photos taken whilst travelling, with the earliest example (from July 2009) being this one on the M6 motorway. The fan of the website who submitted this month's photo said: This was photographed from the M5 whilst coming…
