Thanks for the comments! When I saw that blue roof with the turbine in the background I knew I had to stop and take a shot. :-) Mike #8576749Nikki McDonald May 09, 2010
This is my pick for favorite from among your April entries, Mike. I love the colors and light -- those wind turbine blades are aglow against the darker sky -- and the juxtaposition of old and new that Michelle and Daniel commented on and that caught your eye stopped me immediately at this image. I also love "Joy" and would resubmit; it deserves at least an EP! I like the moment captured, the composition and dof, and the effects. #8598877Michael Umbreit May 13, 2010
