Coastal Wind farm ~ 4

Another shot from Skegness last week. I was rather taken with this scene, with the old man hunched over walking with a stick.

Here is a link to an article about the wind farm. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincs_Wind_Farm

Have been a touch jaded today after last night's MCC dinner at Lord's. Far too much to drink and not in bed until 3am, followed by an hour and 3/4 journey of 6 miles to the Orthodontist with Sam at 8am this morning!!

Apparently I was a bit wibbly wobbly on the train last night and talking nonsense to anyone who would listen!!

Are they in the water?

@lesip The wind farm is about 5 miles out to sea. Here is a link. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincs_Wind_Farm

[Gloria]

For you and the pic....

[Ellen Young]

Oh that sounds like so much fun!! I loved the other shot to but the old man does add alot of interest to this one also! Like i would never have believed it..unless i saw it myself with my own two eyes!! FAV!

[Ingrid Budge]

love all these wind farm images, the turbines remind me of a sci-fi film - I can always imagine them coming to life! The old man 's silhouette is just great!

[Phil]

This has a lovely feel to it - I think it's your composition as well as the light and waves

[fife]

Wow. This is fantastic. The silhouette of the two against the giant turbines is great. Fav.

[Fanny Brogden]

When you reproduced your gorgeous allium for your kitchen, did you have it done as a canvas or printed and framed? I was wondering the best place to go to get some prints done........you seem to know just about everything!!!

[Sean O'Neill]

@fannyb I had it printed on acrylic by Whitewalls. For prints I would recommend Photobox. Whitewalls better than Photobox for canvas but a lot more expensive. HTH.

[Fanny Brogden]

@seanoneill great thank you!!

[Fanny Brogden]

@seanoneill had to look up HTH!! yes it does!

[Simon]

Great composition Sean

[Ross Walker]

More great contrasts in this one; dark people and light wind tubines; gentle human scene and harser industrial objects. Good photo story.

[diane day]

great capture and b/w...the people add interest to the scene.

[Kathy A]

What a shame that little old man wasn't there by himself.

[Sheralee S]

Love this shot! It's quite surreal with the turbines in the background. Love the interaction between the two people as well.
