It’s strange to see this new type of “crop” in fields that used to grow corn, and although they are interesting, they aren’t nearly as beautiful to me as a field of lush green stalks with huge ears of sweet corn inside. This ‘near and far’ view is just a sample of the row upon row of windmills in these former cornfields.
I like the design in this brick patio, and the way the flower-pot full of rainwater on the far end reflects the tree behind it, as if the bowl is transparent on that side.
The fountain at the far top of this rock garden sends water singing down a narrow path of rocks, where it pools at the base before spilling into a crevice between the larger rocks.
This peaceful scene of pretty flowers near the edge of a lake, and snow-capped mountains in the far distance, was captured by a friend. (Used with permission)

Wow, Sharon, these are all GORGEOUS! And I’m amazed at the number of windmills in that first photo. They are beyond counting, aren’t they?

Thanks Sandra! The windmill photo is just one section of those fields with rows and rows of windmills. And they are definitely beyond counting. At night there are little red lights blinking on them to warn aircraft, which creates a huge sea of twinkling red lights. I want to get a picture of that sometime too!

Oddly, there is something beautiful about the windmills, especially their uniformity. It’s a great shot.

Thank you! There is something to be said for their uniformity, and the rows are perfectly straight, with each one lined up from the next one.
