[QUOTE="Kias, post: 123335, member: 9496"] Day 066 (Only 299 to go!) Today, I took this picture because a couple of months ago when they finally got this turbine up and running, I put a picture of it on Facebook and said "It's finally running!" Having taken the picture at high noon, the shutter speed was high and a friend replied, "You won't ever be able to tell it's running from a picture!" Of course my reply was, "Au Contraire Mon Frere! You'll have to wait until the lighting is just right though!" One always speaks in Frenglish when you want to get a point across, no? Anyway, since they got the turbine up and running, I've probably taken a hundred pictures of it. They're all just as bad as this one. I think it's my composition. It's so big, I don't even know how to capture all of it's grandeur. I can get a really good picture of just the blades, but then there's no scale to it. I've traveled all around it trying from different angles, still no luck. You can see this thing starting at around 4 miles from it in any direction. It's quite big for a high school project! This is from my house, about a mile away. [ATTACH type="full" width="60%"]29377._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
