Cool structure, the way you have framed it makes it look like one of those child sketches of spaceships from Julio Verne's book!

It looks like it belongs inside of something. I was watching some of the extras with "There Will Be Blood" and it showed them cleaning an oil pipeline with a "Go-Devil" that looked something like this.

Interesting tower with what seems to be 3 spotlights.

@Isaac: It is a communications tower, but definitely a bit rocket-like! Thanks Isaac.
