Power of the wind

Found these wind mills in Eastern Oregon while doing a workshop with Peter Schutte. These clouds formations were really cool, shot them for about 40 minutes while they constantly changed. This was my favorite from the bunch. Please view LARGER version for the most detail, any comments or critiques are welcomed.

Pretty cool! I love the wave clouds. The wind farm is a good subject too, am thinking if possible it would have been nice to get closer to get more of the turbines in the frame while keeping as much of the sky too--guess i want it all! :biggrin:

Very nice Eric, like the B&W here a lot! Just scrolling down, while the clouds and sky add to it, another option might be to crop out the top cloud layer for a nice pano too. Sweet!
