Mount Millar, Eyre Peninsula, South Australia

Sunset Late afternoon group (#09)

There is a road along the top of the ridge where the wind turbines are. I walked the road while the sun sank toward the horizon.

Canon PS S2 IS 5MP digital



Sunset Large group (#12)

The Mount Millar turbines are spread along a fairly straight ridge. Quite a few can be seen in a tight group if one stands in the same line.

Sunset Turbine on spur ridge (#23)

This turbine is on a spur that runs off the main ridge. Spencer gulf can be seen in the distance on the right.

Sunset Sunset near the viewing area (#24)

The wind farm can be reached from the Cowell to Cleve road via about ten kilometres of gravel road. Just before reaching the wind farm the road climbs a steep hill and on top of this hill is a parking and viewing area.

Starfish Hill, Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia

Unfortunately these photos are limited in definition
I show them here mainly to show something from another South Australian wind farm.

Wattle Point Wind Farm

Sunset Photo "Wattle Point 4"

Super wide angle view at yellow sunset

The converging verticals are conspicuous here because of the width of view being more than 90 degrees and the camera looking fairly steeply upward.

Windmills Photo "Wattle Point 6"

Windmills - old and new

The traditional windmill for pumping small volumes of water from shallow depths for stock and the modern high-power windmills of a wind farm. The old windmill only looks larger because it is much closer than the others.

Looking toward the sun in late afternoon.
