Wind Turbine, a photo from Western Australia, Ouest

Photographer's Note

Rising 64m above ground the sight of this Grasmere wind turbine tells me that I am right on track to the Billbulmun Trail. Each piece of this baby can power up to 1200 households. There are six of these German made turbines in the Grasmere Wind Farm, each generating 30 % more power than of the earlier generation of Albany’s Wind Farm turbines. Together (18 turbines) they have the capacity to produce 35.4 MW of clean, inexhaustible, renewable electricity. On average they provide 80% of Albany’s annual electricity needs. The blades are 35.5 metre long, integrated with lightning protection, made of fibreglass with epoxy resins for greater flexibility in handling extreme weather conditions.

Howdy Latiff,

Fine up close view of the modern German made wind turbine. And I enjoyed reading your informative note summarizing the electrical productivity.

In the U.S. we have numerous anti wind turbine propagandas promulgated by the oil companies. They fear both wind generated and solar electricity and are doing everything possible to prevent their success and the public from the truths.

Thanks for sharing,
Cheers,
Ray

Hello Latiff,

The energy of future, the windmills give our green energy, but as the mill but not stand, against the people his house.
An excellent composition, perspective and depth are pleasant, nice presentation too.
Very well done, TFS.

Have a nice Sunday,
John
