This is a wind mill I drive by every day on the way home and I snapped it this morning. It is an HDR of 5 steps (+2,+1,0,-1,-2). I then applied a cooling filter to the sky and warmed the windmill itself to bring out the detail
I know. I know. HDR is considered by some to be a tool of evil (and so is photoshop), but I think if used judiciously, it can provide nice results. I think true HDR work doesn't appear like HDR at first glance, but provides a subtle enhancement to the tone of the photograph.
Wasn't particularly pleased with any of the interiors I shot at the silk mill. Might revisit these in the future when DXO releases their optics module for the 7-14mm f/2.8.

Water trough that leads to the old grist mill from the stream. I wanted the trough to be the 'proverbial' S-curve, that photographers always watch for. Wish they'd cut down that leaning pine tree on the left.
A visit to Lancaster should always include a visit to Rock Mill. Midday sun was glaring, and not a cloud in the sky made for some challenging shots and editing. There were workers at the site, so NO sneaking down to the creek for a shot of the wheel and falls. I did remove some equipment and other distractions from the shots, but left a worker in 1 of the pics. 4 other views in the comments below. Hope to plan a trip when conditions are better.
Originally Barnard’s Mill was built in 1866. In 1918 the mill became a boarding house where meals were cooked for local workers. Since 1994 its become the Grand Old Mill Restaurant. 7514 Barnard Mill Rd. Wonder Lake, Illinois.
With lots of time on my hands at the moment I set out to try and find some wide angle subjects. This was one of them today. Houghton Mill, built in the 17th Century, apparently.

This old and derelict mill is one of several in the area, and probably the most accessible. I don't often do long exposures, but this was 20 seconds at f/11. The image has certainly brought out the colours that the eye doesn't see in the darkness and gloom!
It looks like this was a kitchen area, with an oven of some sort... who knows!
New Mills in Derbyshire is a mill town. The rivers Goyt and Sett run in deep gorges below the town.
A weir near to where the two rivers converge and the Church Road bridge in the background.
Met up with a group of friends down at Lumsdale to get some photos, then we moved on to Richard Arkwrights Mill, a fascinating place and well worth a visit.
Chesterton Mill, Warwickshire: a 17th-century cylindric stone tower windmill built around 1632-33 and ceased to function around 1910. Apologies for three separate images - Flickr will not allow me to 'stack' them in the comments!

Bird's Mill and the adjacent hydro plant are well over 100 years old. The plant was built in 1892 to supply the town of Bracebridge with electricity. Two years later, it became the Province's first municipally-owned hydro plant.
