Texas Windmill

Posted by B. Thomas (Arlington, Texas, United States) on 5 November 2009 in Landscape & Rural.

I love to go to the Rocky Mountains and the west, but I've gotta' say - Texas has the best windmills and sunsets you could ever ask for.

Barbara Kile from Ft. Worth, United States

Way to go, Metroplex buddy - stunning composition and color!

The Big Guy from Regina, Canada

Nice, by having the windmill in the left third you've given it a chance to flow into the shot. Well done.

Tracy from La Selva Beach, United States

Absolutely beautiful! I was in Celina last week, and saw many of these- but that sky is what really sets this off so well!

5 Nov 2009 3:38pm

@Tracy: I have been out of town a couple of days and just caught up with your Celina shots. Hope you had fun. There are some of these windmills all over, but West Texas has the big sky to go with them.
