A Legacy manual lens arrived in the form of an Auto Flex 55mm F/1.7. No manufacturer is indicated, but it looks very much like other Chinon labeled 55mm lenses I've seen. I cannot get over the special bokeh up close. I don't have another lens in my large collection that renders an image this way.
My photography career began shooting plastic tubing. Tonight, I have a need for some new pictures. I think the stuff is really photogenic.

Of all the photographs I took at the wind farm (and you'll see many of them in the slideshow), this is the one that excited me most. It was a breathtaking "up close" experience, as I stood almost directly under a turbine and felt the wind it generated like a giant fan as it turned in the natural wind, and was startled at how much noise (at a relatively high frequency) was being generated. I am not surprised most of the birdlife and native fauna in the area have disappeared. It is estimated up to a dozen wedge tailed eagles are killed by these turbines each year.
They are powerful machines. And that is evident in this photograph which bears the title that reflects what's going on. In the same way that aircraft wings must flex in order to avoid catastrophic failure through excessive shaking, so these blades will bend in the wind to some degree. That's exactly what we see here with the blade nearest to me. It fills the frame perfectly, and that's without a crop.
Each of these turbines are built to aircraft specifications by Vesta, a Danish company specialising in wind power. They are Vestas V90/3000 (power 3 000 kW, diameter 90 m) Generating 168 MW.
