Everyday Life Around The World: Air

Bangui Wind Farm @ mirandablue
The first wind farm in the Philippines and considered to be the biggest in Southeast Asia.  The Bangui Windmills are the first power-generating wind farm located in Bangui, Ilocos Norte.  The site, at the northwest tip of Luzon, faces the South China Sea from where the wind blows towards the land.  It is a 9-kilometer stretch of sea shore, undeveloped and uninhabited, making it an ideal site for this project.

This is so dramatic, i love it, a bit different angle from other's shots of Bangui.

This looks so cool that they have put up those right to the beach. Magnificent for photos and probably pretty practical too. It could never be done in Scandinavia this way.
