Description
This windmill is in a cow pasture east of our land in rural Oklahoma. Though they were once a very common scene around here they are getting more rare as the wind farms steadily take over with their giant wind generators and huge propellers. Some cattlemen still use the more traditional windmills as a water source in fields with no ponds and in times of drought. The one I captured here is made by Dempster and has fallen into disrepair. It will probably be gone soon so I am glad to have many shots with it as a backdrop or subject.
This is my first photo upload to this site. While digital art is my main medium, I wanted to keep this shot free of edits to give an honest representation of the color of the sky that winter morning. This orange glow is not uncommon around here in winter just before sunup.
