Too dark for photos of the offshore wind farm at Gunfleet Sands in Clacton but took these shots of the inshore wind turbines that have just sprung up in Clacton .
They were taken about an hour ago whilst there was still a bit of light left

I think the ones they have just erected (five of them) in the field next to a new housing estate thats been built look quite pretty really. The new build estate has just been put up as part of a scheme to assist people to move to the coast from the East End of London. This was put in place because of the land grab for the Olympic Village. I believe part of the reason this scheme got passed was to make sure the new estate offset it's carbon footprint.
