Wind farm in autumn

A lovely moment as I drove home towards the weekend early this evening. The theme music from "Hawaii Five O" was playing on the radio and the sails of the wind turbines moved slowly against a clear autumn sky. Difficult to explain how the moment contained a strange and gentle symmetry, a glimpse of harmony and order amidst the usual daily hustle and bustle.

One day I will wander with my basket through a wind orchard, picking up the windfalls and discarded breezes, the not quite good enough little gusts...I will bring them home and make jam that will drift above my toast for breakfast.
