Intruder

This is something of an experiment: by deliberately placing the wind-turbine on a point of confusion, I was aiming to create a sense of visual unease thus reinforcing the feeling of intrusion... BoB!

beautiful. just one of the trees. definitely bob.

[judith deacon]

Beautiful line of trees and definitely BOB

[Graeme Stevens]

Definitely BoB, loving that heavy sky

[Sharon Lee]

another beautiful image...

[Taffy]

Most effective. My eye did 'jump' to the turbine. I like how you've placed it on the line of trees as well -- and well titled.

[Shanne]

Yes, it did create a feeling of unease from the position. Interesting how we like our images harmoniously placed. It's helped by those ominous looking clouds

[Joan Robillard]

Or like the conductor and an orchestra. You should peak at the frozen spinning ice disc I posted today. Not a fabulous photo but an interesting subject as it was formed naturally

[Linda Godwin]

You have succeeded!

[Dianne]

Good thinking and great image.

[gloria jones]

Outstanding capture...You achieved your goal of creating a sense of "intrusion."

[Kathy]

The turbine almost looks like a monument amidst the trees and field.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

it almost looks a little other-worldly and my instant thought/feeling was the sound of invaders on my album of war of the worlds :)

[Margo Sayer]

VML the transverse parallels, their uniformity change the dynamic, morphing the trees into acolytes of the turbine ;-) More water required?!

[Margo Sayer]

...and the sky is Something Else.

[Debs Stott]

I like its lonely prescence..

[CC Folk]

Fav.

[Henri Russell]

The turbine is definitely intrusive.

[Issi Bannerman]

It makes one feel very uneasy. It's a brilliant image!

[haskar]

It's just one intruder! With the current littering of the landscape only after reading the text of the turbine it began to disturb me. Was there no advertising in the area?

[Richard Sayer]

@haskar Thanks for commenting but I'm not sure exactly what you're asking here about advertising?

[April]

Love the contrasts and lines. It's beautiful, but discordant.

[Shari]

Well thought out and great photo. It is the first thing my eye went too.

[Richard Sayer]

@jamibann @aecasey Thank you both - it seems I achieved what I was aiming for.

[Jacqueline]

The position you put the turbine in immediately attracts the eye and the clouds seem to going right to the turbine. Great capture.

[ChristineL]

I think wind turbines are interesting, this solitary one does look odd in the middle of the line of trees. I like how the blades are pointing upwards towards the corners, along the lines in the clouds.

[Clare Gadsby]

very effective

[Jane Pittenger]

Lol! Great title and I like the odd one out in the midst of repeating shapes

[Marnie]

I've never heard the term 'visual unease' but it describes perfectly the effect both your turbine photos have on me. I hasten to add I like the effect - and the photos, both.

[haskar]

@vignouse I am impressed that you managed to catch such a large landscape without advertising!

[Walks @ 7]

This concept does indeed go to my irritation sector. I am also intrigued on how it (the turbine) creates a strong visual bridge and then I am 'taken' off in other directions by the blades.
