Anywhere...western U.S. really. A comforting sight really, feels like home!

What I enjoy about this so much is the purity of color...clean and crisp...like an era of long ago. I definitely agree with Robert about the Kodachrome. That may be what makes me recall another era. My grandfather amassed a massive collection of slides through his life and I still love going through the pictures from 50+ years ago and the color is still so crisp and new.

Beautiful light you've captured and the nice simple treatment makes this a rustic gem. Cheers

Simple and lovely. I'm especially fond of the pale color palette and the sense of serene movement.

Spot on and haunting. I have always had an affinity for older windmills, probably b/c they seems to exude a certain loneliness and this is no exception. The lens adds a nice motion that complements the windmill.

WOW - this could be any place in west Texas. Love the bleached out feel.

Just about perfect. There's often a sense of misplaced optimism that attends windmills (more correctly, windpumps, I suppose), and you've expressed that mood of desperate, lonely perseverance beautifully here.

And to second the motion made by bear_music in the LB forum, I can't see how this same thing could be done in Photoshop. Nor can I think why anyone should try.

Very nice. The bar is being set rather high for us rookies.

This is interesting. The Lensbaby seems to capture the wind.

Zowie! I love this! Quite different from some of the darker LB shots (including mine) that are posted. Great job.

Oh, are you ever gonna have fun with this! It's as though the windmill is blowing away everything in front of it.

Boy, does that ever have the "old Kodachrome" effect nailed. Pretty eerie image.
