Rural pylons 1

Following the post at reference 1, I thought it right, particularly as trolleys have been conspicuous by their absence in recent weeks, to start a collection of pylons.

This one carrying power across the old Portsmouth road, south of Esher. Not one of the telephone's best efforts, but I could not see my way to getting closer, to doing a proper shot peering up inside the thing.

However, yesterday, I noticed a lady with what looked like an Apple telephone do zoom by the same action with thumb and forefinger that one used to enlarge an image already on the phone. Maybe the Lumia does something similar? In which case, what does it do about all the on-screen controls?

Or perhaps a feature whereby you pointed at the pylon and the transmission lines, told the telephone that that was what you were interested in and then leave Microsoft to sort it all out? Maybe to offer you a few options?

As it is, it does have a stab at what it thinks you are interested in, but in this case, and given my history, it is going to go for the trees.
