Finding Yourself
by Theresa Ann Moore
Of all the people that you may know
There is one who remains an embryo
You will never meet them face to face
Because you are standing in their place
When you stop to think... you will seek
Asking yourself, what makes you unique
As life passes through a continuing turnstile
Identity changes like the shadow of a sundial
When you are asked to describe your being
It is difficult to pinpoint what you are seeing
You see yourself in the eyes of those who look
Scanning their notes in an observation book…
No two chapters will be exactly the same
Each person sees you in a different frame
All that you can find of yourself is a reflection...
A variety of appraisals derived by connection
Within a searching mind, your vision is vast
Someone inside is waiting to be released at last
Finally there is an emergence of your worth
Find your significant self... then experience birth

Sunset moment and silhouettes!
While for the evening walk, I sometimes try to wait for the perfect moment and time of the sunset where I can catch the setting sun in between the pylon transmission tower!

Interesting juxtaposition of a cattle farm against a Wind Farm. I captured this image while visiting the southernmost point in the Big Island of Hawaii and, for that matter, in the United States.
The Tawhiri Power LLC is an independent power producer that supplies electricity for the State of Hawaii. The Pakini Nui Wind Farm is Tawhiri's principle project and is located near South Point on the Big Island of Hawaii. Since 2007, the wind farm has supplied approximately 18,000 Hawaiian homes per year with a green and renewable source of electrical power.
About the Wind Farm:
The south point area of Hawaii is one of the best places in the world for a wind farm because of its exceptionally strong and consistent trade winds. As as result, Tawhiri Power LLC selected this location for the Pakini Nui Wind Farm.
Construction of the wind farm began in August of 2006 and was completed in early 2007. On April third, 2007 the wind farm began commercial operation. There are a total of fourteen General Electric 1.5 Mega-Watt SE turbines at Pakini Nui. These turbines can provide nearly 21 Mega-Watts of electricity for the Big Island of Hawaii.
The Pakini Nui Wind Farm is located 7 miles down South Point Road from its junction with Route 11.

Northamptonshire is seemingly the Wind Turbine capital of the UK (for on-shore); these monsters rising out are quite a size and leave a mark on the surrounding landscape.

Near Blanchardville Wisconsin. Old native limestone farmhouse that is being remodeled once again for yet another generation. A “someone still wants me” story.
We had a doosy of a wild electrical storm last night.
This was one of the best shots of the night and is mostly, if not all, one single lightning bolt.
Exposure: 30 seconds, f/7.1, ISO 200, with 25mm focal length.

On a remote island, power and energy are always a concern. This is on South Point Park on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Chesterton Windmill is a 17th-century cylindric stone tower windmill with an arched base, located outside the village of Chesterton, Warwickshire. The windmill is one of Warwickshire's most famous landmarks. It stands on a hilltop overlooking the village of Chesterton for nearly 350 years. It is near the Roman Fosse Way and about five miles (8 km) south-east of Warwick. It was built around 1632-1633 and it is built of hard local limestone, with sandstone detailing, on a shallow platform of 71 feet 9 inches (21.87 m) in diameter. The mill tower with a cap height of 36 feet (11 m), unique worldwide in structure and mechanics, is supported on six semicircular arches, on piers, the outer faces of which are arcs of circles radiating from a common centre.
The wind farms at New Brighton have divided opinion some thinking they are a blot on the landscape and other thinking they really add something. I'm in the later group and at this time of year, when the sun sets directly behind them, they are wonderful.
