This really works for me - sustainable and harmonious. The long shadows tie the man-made structures to nature’s rolling hills and textured sky.

Thanks Phil - recropped to lose the lower right hill and tried to bring out a little more contrast in the clouds. (My photo editing skills need substantial help.)

The play of light and shadow defines texture, the multiplicity of windmills adds incongruity, and the clouds could add dramatic impact if they were darker or carried more color. Watch your corners, Jenene -- the stuff in the lower right pulls the eye away from the scene.
