Nice scenic. It looks as if someone’s water tank ran over.
Thanks John. I think they just let these run constantly. They are sitting right over one of the largest aquafers in the world and the excess just soaks back into the sand.

I took this a few years back (2006) in the sandhills of west-central Nebraska. As you can see, it was still functioning. Please download, the thumbnail looks way dark.
I love windmill shots, and that's a pretty one, jack...good job!

Thanks merrytexan. I do too. I should have mentioned the two bullet holes in the sail. You pretty much have to download once or twice to see them.

Thanks for a great image. The sandhills are a treasure of Nebraska and the nation.

Thanks HS. I do quite a bit of B/W but don't think I did one with this image.

Great light and composition!
Thanks Bruce. Quite a lot of the lighting came from PP. I shot this both in portrait and landscape format, liked this one best.
