i took this on the way from san angelo to abilene pulled over on the side of the road.
these things are so huge. one wing is like 70 meters. lemme know what u think

very nice


just a shame that the top 1/2 of the sky is bear - maybe you could photoshop somthing in?

but i do really like how you've shown the size of them, i can tell by the fence at the bottom that these things are huge.

Are you sure its 70 meters, not feet? 70 meters is 230 feet. They look huge, but not that huge. They look like around 50-60 meters tall to me, but what u say they should be atleast 150 meters

can we see the colored version of this if u got one

yeah ill post the color this afternoon. its rare to have a fully clouded sky in west texas
and the wings are about 50yard i looked i up. so i guessed a little over. it takes two 18wheeler trailers end to end to haul one blade. but 50yards is still pretty big but yeah they look little the bottom is close to the size of a small house. ill put it this way the top box motor thing is the size or two vans side by side and 10 feet tall inside the turbine is actually alot farther away then it looks. the bushes kinda make it look closer but its not.

I've seen those before! They are massive; I know! I only saw like two in a row though, not like 20 in one field haha. I'd like to go take a picture of those someday

that field is the largest in the world actually. i only got a smidgen of them. there are literally hundreds

Holy crap! That would be a site to see - lol.

wow look at the first picture and you can see loads of them on the horizon
