Collis Mill was originally built at Slough, Berkshire. It was moved to Great Thurlow in 1807[2] replacing an earlier post mill.[3] Thomas Hunt, the Soham millwright, carried out repairs to the mill in 1914. It ceased working by wind in 1915 and the sails were removed from 1920.[2] The mill was worked by a portable steam engine until 1937.[4] The derelict mill was capless in 1959 when it was purchased by R A Vestey for restoration as a visual amenity.[5] Restoration was completed in 1962.

Approximately half a mile along the valley there is a 19th century cotton mill called Gibson Mill. The mill was water powered and has been renovated to demonstrate renewable energy sources and a sustainability strategy. It is surrounded by 400 acres (1.6 km2) of unspoilt woodland and crossed by 30 miles (48 km) of footpaths. The former cotton mill was one of the first powered mills built at the start of the Industrial Revolution.
This windmill called The Gooyer is a windmill in Amsterdam located between Funenkade and Zeeburgerstraat. It is the tallest wooden mill in the Netherlands. It is registered as a National Monument.
The original mill was constructed in the 16th century. After destruction and some movements, in 1725 the mill stood on the site of the current Orange-Nassau barracks. Finally, in 1814 the mill moved again its current location on Funenkade atop the stone base of a watermill that had been demolished in 1812.
This mill is the last 26 corn mills on the bastions of the 17th century walls of Amsterdam. The location of the mills was at that time very favourable as the outskirts of town provided ample wind.
After the mill had fallen into disrepair, it was purchased in 1928 by the city of Amsterdam for 3200 guilders and restored. Due to the lack of power during the Second World War the mill served as a corn mill for Amsterdam. The sails were damaged on November 13, 1972 during a storm. The upper shaft broke and the blades embedded in the adjacent Nieuwevaart. Some years later the original, old Dutch type blades were restored.
A very chilly frosty morning so headed out to one of my favourite places Sturminster Newton Mill to capture the moment
On Sunday we took a walk from Horsey mill down to Bograve mill, the weather wasn't as friendly as i'd liked and the water was a strange brown colour but I was still relatively pleased with this photo.

This ancient mill is located near the Roman Bridge in Cordoba, Spain. It seems to be a popular gathering place for feral cats. I saw several but there is only one here; a Siamese cat is near the bottom of the photo in front of the larger arch. More details below translated from a Spanish language Wikipedia entry.
The Albolafia mill, also known as the Albolafia wheel, is a hydraulic mill that is located on the right bank of the Guadalquivir , near the Roman bridge in the city of Cordoba , Spain . It is the oldest mill in the city bank and is framed in the natural area of the Sotos de la Albolafia . Its importance in the history of the city is so relevant that its ferris wheel appears on the local shield since the fourteenth century. In addition, it is within the limits of the Historic Center of Córdoba , declared a World Heritage Site in 1984 and extended in 1994. Its origin dates back to the Roman Empire , the first documentary references belong to the eighth century, although the aspect that it currently presents comes from a Muslim restoration of the ninth century by Abderramán II . After the capture of Córdoba in 1236 by Ferdinand III of Castile , he ordered the delivery of a grinding wheel to the Bishop of Cuenca , another to Tello Alfonso and the last two to Alfonso Téllez, for what happened to be called Don Tello's mill .
Its initial function was to provide irrigation water from the Alcazar orchards, although it later became a flour mill and batán . During the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries it had five grinding wheels, two belonging to the main church and the remaining three to members of the local oligarchy. In 1492, Isabel la Católica , during her stay in the Alcazar, ordered the ferris wheel to be dismantled, unable to withstand the noise it produced. The exterior appearance of the mill remained virtually unchanged between the 16th and 19th centuries, as seen in historical engravings. He was confiscated in 1855 , Rafael Sánchez Castañeda became owner in 1870. Once the owner died, his daughters took over the structure, although he was later seized by the Treasury in 1914, becoming the property of the State.
The Romsey ward of Cambridge was first developed in the 19th century to provide homes for railway workers. It has been associated with the railways ever since.

One of 16 visits to Upper Mill Falls since early 2000.
Klondyke Mill was an ore processing mill on the edge of the Gwydir Forest, near Trefriw, north Wales.
Constructed in 1900,[1] the mill was built to receive lead ore (and some zinc ore) from Pandora mine, some 2 miles away – with which its history is inextricably linked – this ore travelling along a tramway which followed the eastern shore of Llyn Geirionydd. The mill saw little usage; Pandora mine was never profitable after construction of the mill, and the mine ceased operation in 1905. Klondyke mill itself closed in 1911 after having a short succession of optimistic owners.
In the 1920s, the mill achieved notoriety as the scene of an elaborate money-making scam, when investors were sought for the Klondyke mine, which was allegedly rich in silver. It is this scam which gives the mill its current name; during its years of operation it was initially known as Geirionydd Mill, then as the New Pandora Lead Works.[1]
Today the mill lies in a ruined state, a tribute to the false optimism of the time, and is believed to be the largest upstanding building associated with lead mining in north Wales.[2] It is a registered ancient monument [3][4] and, despite its state of disrepair, is under the guardianship of Cadw, the only mine structure in the Gwydir Forest to be so designated.

This is the Longmont Flour Mill. Vandals set fire to it and the other side is pretty heavily damaged.
I shot this on an expedition with autowitch who for some odd reason, thought I had some HDR knowledge i could share with him. So we went out and i shared all my HDR knowledge with him and that took about 3 seconds. But we dorked around most of the day anyway.
I really have only two tips for HDR. Shoot in bright sunlight and at colorful objects.
This is dedicated to Tina Lee who's processing and photography skills amaze me everyday.

As always, your comments and faves are appreciated. Constructive criticism and suggestions are especially welcome as I believe they help to make me a better photographer. Thank you for taking the time to look at my photos.
Monds Roller Mill.
Built in 1824 by Tasmanian miller Thomas Monds this imposing stone building operated as a mill until 1924.
For almost the entire time of its operation the mill was operated by Thomas Mond and his family consortium.
At the time of its demise the mill was the last water powered flour mill operating in Tasmania.
In the intervening years the mill has undergone many and varied business ventures.
Today it is empty and awaiting to be re-invented into another venture.

Another view from our walks around Emsworth. If we could afford to live there, I think this would be a favourite spot for a house, although the whole place is lovely!
There's something about this row that I find really attractive - this is the mill, on the edge of the Mill Pond. (You can see Tim, Matt and Sophie leaving me behind, as usual!!)
Here is an interesting website about this part of Emsworth.
