How unsettling is to walk in the car on a lonely street cover about gold and black fields as in a desert where these wind turbines work and work. Spectral, worrying and magnific in the same time…

Originally a painting on Strathmore Windpower Mixed Media 140#, I took a picture and modified it in PSP with my own mask. Many layers and blends and painterly effect (brush strokes)

Wind power "Farm" in Benton County Indiana. Note the pickup trucks and worker near the base. Gives you a very good sense of scale.
The beauty and grace of using Mother Natures tools of water and wind to propel a group of novice sailors around a tropical island.
This is a medium-size blade for a wind turbine project. I ran into this transport (there were 5 more of the same) by chance. The driver provided me with some interesting data, some of which, such as the exact length, I have forgotten.
I wonder how long it will take to recoup the energy expended on manufacture, transportation, and installation of the wind mills. Germany reported a capacity factor for all their wind power installation, of 16%. That is abysmal.
The cost of producing a kilowatt-hour(kWh) of wind power has been calculated at 24.32 cents. Compare this to the cost for the same kWh, at a gas fired plant: 6.31 cents. Wind is almost 4 times more expensive.
The US wind power plants kill 440,000 (four hundred and forty thousand) birds every year, some of them endangered and protected species. Nothing can be done about this, and no one (where are you, Sierra Club?) screams. The birds have no time to scream because their lungs explode when they fly through the blade circle, in which there is a sudden pressure drop that can make their lungs explode without even hitting a blade.

The Power of Wind or how we call it "Green Energy".
The photo was taken on a field near Zeitz in the south of Saxony Anhalt.
