Skywatch Friday in the wind
A celebration of wind energy was the main theme of this year’s Earth Festival, 2 weeks ago. So the organizers mounted a big…no idea what this is called… oh yeah: a pinwheel (thanks guys!) underneath the Arc de Triomf. And it was turning and humming in the wind… Here is a closer look, from behind.
This is for Skywatch Friday. Please click here to see other Skywatcher’s photos.
And yes, I missed the supermoon, and I’m extremely unhappy about it. Next time.
Very cool shot! Looks like it could be harnessed to generate electricity!

Oh, I missed that! I live in Barcelona (I'm studying there) but on Earth Day I wasn't there.
Beautiful photos of the Arc de Triomf with the pinwheel (I didn't know the word either).
I’m visiting from SkyWatch Friday. Here’s My Sky.
Regards.

It is a Pinwheel and there's a new social media site called just that.

It is called a “pinwheel” in English, Rob.
