Rural landscapes: grabbing hold of the wind

WIND TURBINES NEAR PINCHER CREEK, ALBERTA

Southern Alberta is one of the windiest places in Canada, so it’s no surprise that the landscape is dotted with hundreds of turbines. I’ve discovered lots of people intensely dislike them — especially as they’re not the solution to producing “clean” energy that some of their proponents claim — but turbines make an intriguing subject for landscape photography.
