Steel Magnolias

Missed a blip for yesterday - oops - but wasn't missing this one. Went to see the windmills at Whitelee Wind Farm in Ayrshire. It's the biggest in Europe with over 140 windmills and is very impressive. Have always loved these windmills and find them quite hypnotic.

I can't emphasise how MASSIVE these things are up close. Standing under them is something else - the noise and sheer scale is awe inspiring.
