Default Turbine

I went to one of my remote offices today and finally decided to snap some photos of this turbine accross the street. Thought it was very interesting.

C&C Welcome

Docfav, The shot is interesting. It would be nice to see all of the turbine in the shot.

I was in a rush to leave as I had to travel again. When I got home and looked at it, I thought the same thing. The next time I go up I will get a better shot.

Thanks

it looks like some sort of generator. I think you're close, but the composition doesn't quite work for me and the PP is a little flat...but I think you've got a great start!

Thanks. I just got My 1st SLR camera in May. Never did photography before that. I am hooked. My photoshop skills are not up to par. I'm still learning.

Yep, that's about what I was going to say. The cropping/composition is not working the best it could. Very interesting subject though.

Great find, I love old mechanical stuff like that. I bet this would look great in a b/w conversion too.
