      A subject that has caught my attention in recent months.
      THese phone cable junction boxes that are around in some places (and not others). Some are close to road and get knocked open, maybe by cars that run off road, or maybe by force of snow from snow plows.
      I have difficulty explaining the reason for my interest.

      Maybe Mr Glen Dorkburger might say that could be more interesting if the boxes were numbered.

        Dave, I understand the attraction to odd subjects.

          Odd ?
          Mine not odd. Yours not odd, I find it interesting.

          Odd? Naw, just not what most people would be interested in.

          oh, wait….. that is a definition of odd… hum….

          I found others

            Like everything, I suppose odd, beauty, and whatever else, is in the eye of the beholder. Since we've gone down this wonderful photography rathole, I've found myself looking at things with a different view, and observing the outwardly mundane and overlooked things has revealed much.
            Your colorful shots of phone junctions are interesting. Color, form, and function. Having done some work in tel-com closets and at our shop, I can appreciate these. As far as I know all, of the colored wires are landed in pairs and seeing the spaghetti like pics you've shared give me mixed feelings. I hate messy wiring, but at the same time someone sat there and made multiple connections so the locals can communicate. Then the boxes got damaged and opened up... job security I guess...

                                Correct, coper vent cover. The first winter in this house it snowed so much that it broke off the pvc vent pipes in the roof at roof level…thus the covers.
