What does power look like?

I've been inspired to trawl through my extensive collection of photographs to see if I have something strong enough to submit to Wired UK's current photography competition.

The magazine is asking for entries inspired by the following words: power, disruptive and future.

For month one, the focus is power - a word which has a startling 32 definitions according to Dictionary.com and provides a challenge to relish in terms of photography.

I don't have a favoured entry yet, but I'm building a shortlist set on Flickr which includes the Plugged-In Space Invader below (found quite lost on a wall in Kensal Rise), some interesting shots of London landmark Battersea Power Station taken at a public presentation of proposed plans to revamp it, and some some more interesting displays of political power: The Berlin Wall and historic Apartheid-era signage from Cape Town's enlightening District Six Museum.

But, if a picture can paint a thousand words, there's no reason to delay the imminent full stop (you can always simply click here... to take a look for yourselves).
