  • In mid-day heat of the arid Sonoran desert sit the remains of a Boeing 747 airliner at the storage facility at Mojave, California. Here, the fate of the world’s retired civil airliners is decided by age or a cooling economy and are either cannibalised for still-working parts or recycled for scrap, their aluminium fuselages worth more than their sum total. After a lifetime of safe commercial flight, wings are clipped and cockpits sliced apart by huge guillotines, cutting through their once-magnificant engineering. Picture from the 'Plane Pictures' project, a celebration of aviation aesthetics and flying culture, 100 years after the Wright brothers first 12 seconds/120 feet powered flight at Kitty Hawk,1903.

  • From the State Route 58 that makes its way through the Mojave Desert, we see just a few of the hundreds of wind turbines of the Tehachapi Pass Wind Farm. Spinning blades are seen close up, their pylon legs and towers secured into the ground by concrete and others on the distant hill sides, a multitude of white turbine blades. Development in the Tehachapi Pass began in the early 1980's and now is one of California's largest Wind resource areas, that generates electricity for other parts of the state. The area has multiple generations of wind turbine technology installed, including both single and double blade turbines, as well as the more modern three blade horizontal axis design. The older generation turbines generate kilowatts, and the modern turbines installed generate up to 3 megawatts, depending on the specific turbine and manufacturer.

The lady looks diminutive next to this natural plant which are some of the largest organisms in the world, often between 1800 and 2700 years old.

As they continue to grow, they produce about 40 cubic feet of wood each year, approximately equal to the volume of a 50-foot-tall tree one foot in diameter. Source: http://www.nps.gov/seki/index.htm
