Burbo Bank windfarm near Liverpool

In a round up of sailing pictures from around the world, there are two impressive pictures of sailing ships passing the Burbo Bank windfarm on the River Mersey.

The pictures, numbers 1 and 14, show the tall ships which visited Liverpool in July 2008 passing the turbines, though the whole sequence of photos is well worth viewing to see that "other" use of windpower - for driving sailing ships.
