Some things just need to be shared. This 3-D image from Aleksandar Rodic is just...pleasant. I asked him why he created it, and he said:
My intention was to show the beauty of clean energy and thereby oppose the argument of those who say that wind turbines are ruining the beauty of landscapes. Wind turbines are very elegant and beautifully products of human engineering which have positive impact on environment. Symbioses of nature and technology fitted perfectly in this story about clean energy.
Thanks, Aleksandar, for using a computer to create a digital image of a natural portrayal of a technological marvel. The image is available as a print from his website; also, a larger version is available for download (apparently for free.) The image won first prize at the AWEA conference in Pittsburgh.

Does anyone else remember a project to build a Wind Farm in Wyoming that would be shaped like a Buffalo if seen from above or from space?
Also, why are there no (or few) discussions on green architecture where wind turbines are planned right into new urban buildings. Power generated will help power the building and overage will return back to the grid. Also incorporate solar power in the form of panels, skylights and energy efficient heating/cooling systems. Chicago would power itself!
