First of all, you might want to click on these to get just a hint of how it feels to drive by all these wind turbines.
We pass them every time we go to Willow Slough or Jasper Pulaski. Every time I take pictures. Every time I am somewhat disappointed. I just never quite get the photo I want. Of course we are driving 60 mph, so probably good that I can get these. They have all had different filters used to try to bring them to life.
I always try to capture this one that is right beside the road...and love to snap one when a vehicle is right beside it. The last time we went, it was so foggy, I could not see any of the wind turbines, not even this one that is just across the road.
Cool shots of the wind farm! Have a happy Friday and weekend ahead!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of turbines!
ReplyDeleteI am forever amazed at the quality of your drive-by photos!
ReplyDeleteI'll be seeing this view when I return to my farm home in May. My brother has one right on the farm, and there are several around as well.
ReplyDeleteI have never seen one in real life. and I am glad you showed it with the truck next to it,shows how tall it really is. in the broad view they look small.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you snapped the one picture with a car beside it. I would have had no IDEA how huge these are!! I have never seen any around here, so this is a treat. SO many of them, and they are SO big; I had no idea!
ReplyDeletethey are huge, and make a funny whirring noise. We have some near us.
ReplyDeleteDriving in California, I felt I was caught in an Orwellian novel whilst passing mile upon mile upon mile of wind turbines.
ReplyDeleteYou did great capturing those wind turbines. I especially liked the last one with the car giving a good idea how huge those things are.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen so many in the one place before. The car is a great idea to add perspective.
ReplyDeletethey look like monsters. so huge. i love seeing them when we travel. they are every where. i always wonder if there are any in VA. i have yet to see any. have a nice weekend. ( :
ReplyDeleteThey're huge! We have some in this state too.
ReplyDeleteI have seen these things and I hope they are doing more good than harm. But as a bird lover, I'm afraid they might destroy a lot of birds.
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend!
I see these every time we go west for vacation- I am always amazed at how huge they are. We've seen trailers towing the blades..just so huge!! I don't know if the wind farms are a blessing or a curse-but it seems every form of energy has it's bad points. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWe have many of these "wind farms" in Eastern Washington where the land is somewhat flatter and there is more wind. They amaze me also and I can NEVER get a picture that captures theme properly. so I know what you mean.
