So stark and beautiful! I get the feeling that there is nothingness around it. Just the feeling of flat land stretching for miles in every direction. Great work

Just a fav, to remind myself of the allegory, the connection between art and Literature, the visual romance.

Thank you,Laurel. You are so brilliant,inspiring And I am so grateful,again,for our connection. I was just thinking...it's just a windmill,but,to me symbolic of literary works that I can photo or paint. Art for me expresses dimensions..of thoughts,visuals,my psyche , " on a clear day", lol.nThe "classics" we're staples in our home,at school...I am very fortunate.nThis windmill stands untended now,on the farm in 'country NSW,AUStralia,where the family home is,of son-in-law was raised,whose Father served as local MP, member of Parliament,and who contributed his life to his country.....it's all connected...isn't it? So wonder-ful....this life ! xV

"Tilting at windmills".....the literary inspiration,quote, here as a beautiful photograph, to symbolize the exercise in futility that is......tilting at windmills ... denying reality, truth.

Oh, thank you,Jerry, for both lovely compliments. Shall have a look at yours most definitely. Windmills are such romantic subjects, especially when one thinks of them grinding the colours for Artists historically. Wind Farms have no romance !!! Just .. noise.........VIVA

This beautiful blue toned image reminds me of the windmill and water tank at Empire Ranch. You can see them in the distance in my "Winter Visits Empire Ranch" painting, Viva. Lovely new bio pic of YOU too!..............FAV / LIKE

I love the pov and the blues VIVA, and the contrasts and light are wonderful. Your title makes me want to imagine this as a dragon... I don't recall that he battled dragons, but I picture this as one. Beautifully done! L/F!
