Never Ending Wait

This old windmill, missing it's blades ,waits for a breeze which will never come.

I had to shoo off a skunk which happened to come out from the undergrowth while waiting for the exposure to finish. The glow of the clouds comes from a gas refinery 20 miles away.

Fabulous night image Mitch. Hope you did not have to wait for a breeze to dispel skunk oder. BTW - I like the absence of star tails.

Wonderful. I really like the feel this has. Excellent work, Mitch. Looking at this is just fascinating to me. The old wind mill and glow in the clouds makes such a nice base for viewing all the stars. Just like being there.

Cool urban landscape Mitch. The warm glow works well.
