 Kansas, it really is flat as a pancake!
Windmills are the classic symbol of the plains, where we live, you can watch the sun rise & the sun set with nothing to interupt the view except for manmade objects.

Kind of a cliche shot, but wonderfully executed with a fresh new look to it. Great job, nice capture.

Great colours in the sky. But I think the "sillouetted windmill" is a bit cliche.

Beautiful colours in the sky. However, the buildings on the left are a little distracting. Overall I really like this photo. Good job!

I love this! The sky is stunning. There are a couple of little nitpicky things that keep it from being absolutely perfect for me. But they are so minor that I'm not even going to get into them. Great job!

Lovely "buttermilk sky." The tonality of the sunset is lovely. I love windmills and it stands up against the evening sky like a sentry. Nice!
