Wind turbines on Lake Winnebago - by Max Hermans via Hank Bilsland

December 3, 2011

Debate at a recent Culver town council meeting centered partially around these photos, all taken within recent months at Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin, and all purporting to show wind turbines on that lake’s shore of comparable size to those proposed for placement in this area.

This is the the photo commissioned by Hank Bilsland of Culver and taken by Wisconsin photographer Max Hermans. It was distributed throughout the community as a suggestion of how wind turbines placed here might appear, a suggestion refuted by Winters, who suggested his photos reveal deliberate misleading via the Hermans image.
