Year in Review: Celebrating the Line Trade in 2021
Linemen often work behind the scenes to keep the power flowing for homes and businesses. The Parting Shot department in T&D World's Electric Utility Operations section, however, shines a spotlight on these first responders.
Every month, we feature a full-page photo of linemen at work in Parting Shot. This photo gallery gives a look back at the photos we featured during 2021.
If you have a recent vertical, high-resolution photo of linemen in action that you want us to consider for a future Parting Shot, email it to Field Editor Amy Fischbach. Please include the name of the photographer and a one-paragraph caption. You will have the opportunity to review it as a PDF prior to publication. To see what the department looks like in the magazine, check out the preview of the January Parting Shot below.
We look forward to hearing from you.
