There's a vastness to this that underscores your title. (I'm certain it's mostly due to the leading lines and that big sky.) The vignetting gives it a global connotation, and the bending of the trees dovetails perfectly with the idea of wind generation. Great image, Kal

wonderful elements in this image. The partitioned landscape with the windmills cathing your eye and a fantastic sky -v

Great composition from a master of "seeing the possibilities" ! Extra bonus points for film. ;-) ~V~

I like the very peaceful feel of this photograph Kal. I like wind farms - think they really fit in well with most landscapes in a way that, say, long, snaking power lines don't. It's not just because of the *way* they harness energy, but more down to the way they look. They seem to be unobtrusive to me.

I find this image full of symbols: opposition of tree and technology, under the sky. And not a sky, the real atmosphere, with the vignetting that "bends" the sky to really make it the symbol of the planet.

Aside from the aesthetics, you tell an important story here, Kal. The wind bends the trees and makes the clouds seem to move in soft waves overhead, just as it rustles the crops in the fields. Meanwhile, man tries to harness those winds to his own ends with those windmills. Wonderfully airy shot, full of energy and life.

A wonderful landscape with "technology" pressing itself against nature. Love the relationship between the trees and fans.

I love this huge view which includes the rows in the land and the follow-the-leader of the trees.
