Waco Mill old grist mill out in the country and close to me, shot in black and white. Found in North Carolina.
To me this is the more interesting side of Thompson's Flouring Mill. When I was back there windows were open and some were missing. Swallows perpetually darted through the air eating insects. The front of the building is painted nicely, but as you can see the paint on the rear is peeling. Definitely a Bates Motel vibe. Shooting in infrared light made it seem even more creepy.

A morning shot taken across Mill Pond from our dock last Saturday. It is two exposures blended in Photomatix. This was taken the same day as the previous dragonfly images on November 28th. We had zero inches of snowfall in November in MPLS or here at the pond in WI. I will not complain one bit.
Alberta's oldest seed cleaning mill, operated from the 1930s to 1960s, not far from Camrose, Alberta. Founded by the Haselwood family. Alfred William Haselwood and his family arrived in Wetaskiwin, Alberta from England in 1897. The Haselwood family was one of the first families to settle on the homestead lands in the Rosenroll-Bittern Lake area. The Haselwoods built a gristmill at the beginning of 1900 and erected a flour-mill in 1906. The flour-mill was later destroyed by fire in 1933. The site had a B&B and antique shop at one time, but was up for sale at one point. Current status is unknown at this time.

De Gooyer is a windmill in Amsterdam located between Funenkade and Zeeburgerstraat. It is the tallest wooden mill in the Netherlands at 26.6 meters high. It is registered as a National Monument
The names dates from the around 1609, when the mill was owned by Claes and Jan Willemsz, two brothers from Gooiland. It is also known as "The Funenmolen" ("The Mill on the Funen").
The Gooyer consists of a stone foundation topped by a wooden octagonal body. The mill is owned by the municipality of Amsterdam and is not open to visitors. Although the blades are functional, they no longer operate any grinding mechanism.
Next to the mill, in the former municipal bathhouse dating back to 1911, is the Brouwerij 't IJ. The mill and the bathhouse building are unrelated, and the mill fulfils no function for the brewery despite the image of a mill being in the brewery logo.

History
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 to its current location on Funenkade on top of the stone base of a watermill that had been demolished in 1812.
This mill is the last of 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.

The first mechanical weaving mill stood there in 1851, driven by water power. Since 1879 the new owner gave it its name and the mill was then steam powered. There was a weaving and spinning mill, a dyeing and bleachery. 270 people worked there in its heyday. The mill operated until 2004. The last owner lived alone in his closed factory and died there in 2011.

Sixes Mill was originally build around 1820 by gold prospectors and later rebuilt between 1878 and 1880. It is located near Kennesaw, GA on Sixes Rd exit 11 off I-575.
This mill is on private property and photos have to be taken from the side of the road. Sadly, tall fence posts have been installed and depending on what type fence is mounted, the photographer's view could be effected.

Mill ponds were often created through the construction of a mill dam or weir (and mill stream) across a waterway.
In many places, the common proper name Mill Pond has remained even though the mill has long since gone. It may be fed by a man-made stream,[3] known by several terms including leat and 'mill stream'. The channel or stream leading from the mill pond is the mill race, which together with weirs, dams, channels and the terrain establishing the mill pond, delivers water to the mill wheel to convert potential and/or kinetic energy of the water to mechanical energy by rotating the mill wheel. The production of mechanical power is the purpose of this civil engineering hydraulic system

This is my Hasselblad version of the Callington Mill, and it is interesting to compare it with the previous Rolleiflex photographs. The mill and surrounding buildings have been fully restored and are now (I'm very glad to say) part of a wonderful new Whisky Distillery. It is great to see the old mill looking so good again. So when you visit Oatlands in Tasmania's southern Midlands, please do have a dram to celebrate this restoration.
The Callington Mill Distillery is a multiple award winning whisky producer.
