Wind power Photo Gallery by Pawel Kazmierczyk at pbase.com

Wind power

I have always been fascinated by windmills. Some people complain that windmills are ugly or they give them a headache, but for me there is something captivating in those massive propellers slowly turning round and churning out tons of electricity. Most of the windmills you see here are large installations which generate some 2 Megawatts of power, enough for about 5000 people. Although windpower is still one of the more expensive electricity sources today - each windmill costs between 2 and 3 mln Euro to build - hopefully this will become the way of the future. Enjoy the photos :)

Beautiful images of the future freedom from fossil fuel, Pawel! I didn't realize so many were built offshore. Where are these? V

I am wind power. Destroyer of the American landscape. God help us all for this terrible mess.

I have always been interested in windmills also. I a collection photos I have taken from farm windmills, dutch windmills and windfarms. I love the photos you have here. How can one say they are a boring subject. If we run out of our natural resources we may well be depending on them for energy.

Guest		06-Nov-2010 11:46
Interesting collection of pictures of a, one could say, boring subject. Like the titles very much.

Bartosz Kotulski		24-Aug-2009 12:31

I recently finished a diy wind generator for the back yard. It's not producing much in the way of electricity, but it was a very rewarding experience (and a great way to escape from the wife)

Katy Akita		14-Feb-2009 21:21
Fabulous glaaery - I love them too :) V

Nicely done - great and unusual topic for a gallery. We have a lot of these in our area and I have meant to photograph them for a long time. Your images have inspired me to make a greater effort. ~V~

Steve Mockford		14-Dec-2008 15:56
You have captured the beauty and power of these structures the opponents of wind power should visit your gallery ~V~

Webman06		13-Dec-2008 08:30
I've found out not long ago that the propeller blades were made out of concrete and weigh about 2 tons apiece... This gallery is a great tribute to a new source of energy. V.

Very nice gallery, big vote.

Nice collection of windmill shots. When we elect a new president I may have a chance to get some windmill shots.

Guest		06-Aug-2008 11:59
That's one of my favorites subject....stunning collection !!! Well done ..VVV..

Guest		16-Jun-2008 17:12
Beautiful gallery, I find these structures stunning and you've captured them so well. They are just starting to gain a bit more popularity here in Ontario, Canada.

Very nice! I enjoyed your "Windmills" gallery very much! Well done!

This technology seems viable. For the residents of New England, however, the latest infamous Kennedy disliked the proposed view and ditched the advantage to them.

David T.		23-Jul-2007 22:00
Very interesting gallery and artfully done. Nice job. Regards, David

Very nice gallery. I like the way you play with the lines.

Jason Anderson		16-Jul-2007 12:56
These are beautiful machines, especially compared to the belching smokestacks of coal-fired energy plants, and you capture them beautifully. I'm working with a company now that's struggling to bring consumer wind turbines to the state of Rhode Island. Strangely enough, the USA is behind much of the world on this. I guess there's a first time for everything ;o)

nordic		16-Jul-2007 10:20
When placed in the right location, there is a certain beauty about wind turbines, these are all very well captured, well done! I have a soft spot for windmills to: http://www.pbase.com/nordic/windmills

I cannot understand why people don't like windmills. These photos show they are things of beauty and symmetry. Also they stand for energy efficiency, independence from oil, and can be a means to avoid the violence now plaquing oil rich lands. Thanks for the carefully done images.

Guest		11-Jul-2007 17:38
Wow, what a great gallery. Beautifully shot.

Guest		11-Jul-2007 03:22
Great gallery. We have these windmills but they are not quite as exciting as these are!

The Third Side		10-Jul-2007 23:22
I don't think I have ever seen more windmills than in Denmark. You have made them quite a nice art form here.
