Description
Yesterday we stopped for lunch along the side of the highway and were treated to this scene. Scattered clouds made for unusual lighting.
For those interested, this is 30-40 miles south of Sheridan on the east side of Interstate Highway 25.

That windmill speaks USA. I have never seen one in the UK.

To me that windmill says "The Viginian" "The little house on the prarie" "Bonanza" "Raw hide" "The rifleman" and any other western TV series that I may have missed :) This is a great shot Bill!

Lots of sky--I love that feeling of being out in the open up there with the wind in your hair. Beautiful capture, I love those windmills.

Windmills are so 1800's Western, and, what MrsRatbag said.

Zoom a must. The overcast feel of this is palpable, in zoom. Daytime, but light shifting, and shadows moving. A melancholy moment, much in shadow, including the windmill which is nearly blackened by the light. The strata in the mountains slope with the land itself. And you caught a few lighter highlights in the landscape (lighter streaks, things like that). Somewhat desolate, but peaceful. (The root of "desolate," after all, is "solus" which gives us solitary, solitude, solo; and it can imply peace and quiet and inwardness, not just emptiness and despair.) I can't imagine stopping in Wyoming for lunch, and being able to sit in an open landscape like this, and then just drive on. A peaceful capture, and the light is dark and consuming.
