This turbine is on Starfish Hill itself. Some other of the turbines of Starfish Hill Wind Farm are on Salt Creek Hill. Contact, David K Clarke – © | ||
Turbines of Salt Creek Hill with the water of St Vincent Gulf behind them;
from Starfish Hill.
A technique called high dynamic range (HDR) photography was used to bring out the detail in the foreground hills - it would have been missed in a standard exposure because of the very bright light reflected from Saint Vincent Gulf. | ||

There are 8 turbines on Starfish Hill and 15 on the lower Salt Creek Hill. | ||

I used the HDR (high dynamic range) technique to combine 3 exposures into one; hence the multiple blades on the foreground turbine. | ||
