Simply superb! Ditto what everyone else said. The asymmetrical arrangement of the turbines is a pro in my opinion. I'm thinking there would be room to crop a little at the left edge of this photo.

I agree with Steve (SWW). It's almost impossible to understand the scale of these windmills until you notice the steps and door almost lost in the lower right corner. Then the impact of the size of these towers hits you. This is a technique used in ancient Chinese prints. Nice job!

Fabulous aspect here, and you've really captured a feeling of the size of the turbines. I agree that this is your best shot, the sky really makes it special.

I like this quite a bit, and the tower in the foreground makes all the difference. You might consider cloning some of the clutter on the horizon, and I think it would be even stronger with more visual space between near tower and tower #2, but these are just quibbles. It's a very striking composition.

I agree also. Great shot.

Ironic. You but a 300D and I think the best picture from your 3 submissions is the one from the powershot :-) The cloud formations add to this one. The perspective of the decreasing windmills leads the eye nicely across the frame. The steps and the doorway on the nearest one give the impression of size. I like this one a lot.
