Description
The choir backs up the soloist.
Wind turbines at Tehachapi Pass. I shot this in full daylight. Any deviation from that perception has been brought to you by Photoshop and Auntie Tara.

I love the sounds these things make! And they're incredibly huge...something I saw first hand while moving dental equipment to southern Illinois. A truck drove past us, transporting a single blade (it looked as if it might have been made of fiberglass) and it was...well...I've seen smaller spaceships in George Lucas space operas. The truck in question was followed by two more, and well...WOW! We actually passed the wind farm the trucks were heading to and there were zillions of these things, though not nearly as many as I saw spinning impressively in Dortmund, Germany...now that was a wind farm...but of course my friends Ronny, Anja, and Carsten saw nothing particularly fascinating about it. For them it was just that place you go near just before getting to the hypermarket. to buy liverwurst for the day's improvised picnic. And now I can send them a link to this picture along with the boastful declaration: See! We have these in the USA too.

LOL! A fun image. I remember seeing a swath of these in California many years ago. There was a road leading up to them with a sign saying "No Trespassing" which I took because I was driving. My husband said "We can't go down there! It said "No trespassing!" on that sign." I said "What sign? I didn't see any sign. But if we get stopped you didn't see any sign either, right?" I took a few shots and then chickened out and turned the car around and left before we were apprehended. Heehee! Oh well, I can't always be Goodie Two Shoes!

Great shot and I love how you have made the wind turbines stand out, but unlike most of the other comments I find these things a hideous blot on a beautiful view.

As you said: 'The Soloist' or 'The Orchestra's Director' ? from my point of view ! This is dramatic and outstanding, Tara BB
