Very Cold

Al,

I like the form and the greyed-out look of the shot.

Al: Tremendously frigid and desolate shot...I like the ethereal look of the turbines vs the heavy black of the distressed-looking tree.
cheers:
Sam

Thank you gentlemen.

Sam: I had to walk down this road to speak with the crane operator. The wind was at my back. The return trip into the wind was pretty brutal.

Al: strong imagery, almost film-like. It's easy to see the predominant wind direction. Is that Lake Wobegon over on the right?
