Photomontages
Below are three photomontages based on the windfarm located at site
E, just over 3 kilometres north of Mt Barker on the western side of
Albany Highway.
To keep the photomontages conservative,
- the largest turbine being considered is used, the V52 (though this is now the E53)
- the turbines face the viewer
NOTE: As neither turbine type nor micro siting had been finalised at the time the photos were taken,
these images are only indicative. What the actual view of the turbines
will look like also changes with the weather. During fog or low cloud,
they may disappear completely. By stark contrast is the situation where
bright sunlight shines on the hill when there are dark clouds in the
background, this highlights the turbines. Most of the time, the view
of the turbines will be between these two extremes. The layout is nominal
only, the locations will change over time due to micro siting constraints
and other considerations. These changes will have little impact for
the two distant photos. It is unlikely the nearest turbine in the southern
house image will come any closer/get any bigger, though it is possible
the other two machines will come closer.
These images have been produced by using a Olympus digital camera,
C 4040Z and WindFarm V4.0 software.
