The expansive plains of Oklahoma are dotted with seemingly countless wind farms that are home to rows of huge windmills. A single blade is more than 150 feet in length. I took some shots from the van as we traveled to our next potential storm center on a bright sunny Wednesday with some puffy clouds. Before we left Oklahoma and entered the Texas panhandle, we stopped at an abandoned farm house to explore photo opportunities. I was captivated by the aging windmill, such a contrast to the sleek modern ones I’d photographed earlier. It still worked but the blades creaked and groaned as they turned in the afternoon breeze.
