This is a simple, elegant photo. Stunning with that back drop of sky.

Beautiful workmanship! Paper cut-outs are hard enough, but to do it in metal — wow.

Your photo is fantastic too. I can actually see the scene from here.

This is a beautiful shot. I do like these simple close-ups with just a few colors. Very well done.

Fantastic! I hope to do a series of vanes in the future but none will equal this.

I wonder if it squeaks a little in the wind or if someone has had it lubricated?
