I think I’ve mentioned my passion for wind turbines gently turning in the wind. A breezy old spot like Albany is making the most of this form of energy with a large number of turbines along the coast. Each blade is 35m long and the tower is 65m high. That means it’s 100m to the top of the top blade!

We were here near dusk and this time I took the best sunset photo…..

As we left the coast to drive back into Albany township, I took the photo below of the Southern Ocean.

The funny thing is that when we got back into the harbour, the water had glassed off. Perfect for water skiing! You don’t see that in Albany too often.

Lastly, today’s wildflower is Bacon and Eggs or Nemcia capitata. I saw this in the track to The Gap and actually had one in my garden until recently. It got out of control and it never flowered this well. Perhaps I’ll try again now that I know how good it can look.
