The Man Who Photographs Wind Turbines

I was milling around Wall-Space, a hip new art gallery in Santa Barbara’s “Funk Zone” yesterday, looking at some really cool photography, when the clerk, an amazingly articulate and self-possessed young lady, asked me about my interests.  No sooner had I gotten the words “renewable energy” out of my mouth than she opened a drawer stuffed with the images of Jay Tyrrell, a fellow whose photographic subjects are largely concentrated on – and I’m not making this up – wind turbines.  If you check this out, you’ll learn about Jay’s project “Wind Army” a science fiction story that brings wind turbines to life in a sort of  “War of the Worlds” plot-line. 

Now that’s what I call an imagination.
