Wow - what a view. The water and rolling hills are beautiful - and then you see the wind farm (and so many wind mills!). Quite something to see - nice capture.

That marsh must be an absolute plethora of bird life. Fab vista, Craig!! The wind farm is impressive.

What a great View. I love the ribbon of water. I agree with Amy, must be some great bird habitats.

What a breathtaking view! I like the curved canal and the soft tones.

A wonderful view of the river and the wind farm in the background.
I must ask, are the windmills noisy?

@MaryB: Not from my vantage point.

nice shot! i really like the composition with the sort of curvy lines of the water as well as of the patterns of the wind mills. i heard those wind mills kill a lot of birds though.

@danthro: Oil pumped from under the sea kills loads of birds also when spilled. Hydroelectric dams kill the fish that spawn upstream. Nuclear power plants kill naturally occurring bacteria in the water thermally. Not sure which generation source is the most, do I dare say it, humane. The capitalists don't care what they sell and the public doesn't care what they buy. Sad.
