Windmill by a pond

I was coming home the other night and decided to drive through the industrial park, which is located a couple of miles from my home.  I came that way because it was during the golden hour of light and I had seen a windmill behind a building a couple of weeks ago.

So I grabbed the D700 with the Tamron 70-200mm F2.8 and walked the foot path down to the windmill to see if there was anything worth shooting.  Much to my delight there was also a nice pond just below the windmill and so it set up a very nice shot.

I was too lazy to walk all the way back to the car (about 1/2 mile) to get my tripod (which I should have done) but hand-held the camera and took about 35 images of the pond and the windmill.

I like the way it turned out but was thinking it might have been a better shot using bracketing and HDR imaging.  Maybe next time.

  1. Gorgeous picture Dave! You have quite an eye for things in our landscape that would also appeal to me IF I were a photographer, instead of a wanna be! I took about 230 pics over the weekend of my daughter’s wedding a couple of weeks ago. None as good as this, but still fun to relive that evetnt.
