I removed the front mesh-wire cover of the fan to have a less busy view of the blades, and the transparency of the blades helped light the image well from my side; no flash or extra light or reflectors were used. So the sun is an only light source.
It is usually very hard to get deep blue skies with contre-jour shots, but with the right angle it can be done; especially that the fast rotating blades helped dim the sun light somewhat.
I started without the colorful ribbons, but decided later that the motion was not very clear without them so I added them.
Not much was done to the image, general correction in contrast and saturation and cropping. AND THE USUAL REMOVAL OF THE DUST SPOTS.

There's a subject that easily could fall into the dull/boring category, but those brightly colored ribbons give this photo an interesting twist of life and fun. Nicely done!
