Caught this with the Rebel XT as I was driving down the road had just enough time to snap off a few shots.. Boy uploading them her in med format didn't do them any justice at all…I must learn a better way to post photos..

I see what you were going for in the first one, just doesn't work for me though. The second shot is absolutely outstanding though, excellent job!

Great composition on #2. Well done. I can almost feel the heat coming off that one.

#1 looks like a picture someone would take while impatiently waiting for #2. Composition and colour are right on the money.

Nice photos, particularly number 2, very well done.

Aren't they wind pumps though? :)

I really like them both, I think #1s angle could have been a little better, I really liked #2, I think if you could rework #1 though it would be awesome.

Just looked at one again, try cloning out the water tank and the other windmill and see how it looks standing alone.

WOW
Guys Thanks for the replys & the c&c..

Your right I was waiting for the shot on #2 and just could not stand it so I started to snap photos till the sun got too the right moment and it didn't take long, I wish there were more clouds like the day before but was not in the area to catch it. :(

Regards
