OMG, Donna, I think this is just amazing -- and that's an adjective I do not use frequently. MT or EoD or T&P or C-A or DD or N&L -- maybe even People or Animals or Flowers or D&M -- I don't think it matters much what category you put this in. It's a big winner IMO #1434137

WOW!!! I was perusing the MT entries and this stopped me cold, Donna! It is FANTASTIC, SPECTACULAR and then some! Did you get that I love it! Marvelous composition, brilliant execution, love the starkness and simplicity, and the color gradients are sensational. I come from a land of wind turbines and I love them (and shoot them) but not like this! A Winner in my book! #9902683
