La maison en dessous de l'image est le musée Guido Gezelle, poète flamand du 19ème siècle, fait partie des figures majeures de la littérature belge. Étudiant au grand séminaire de Bruges, il est ordonné prêtre et enseigne aux étudiants. Le flamand n’est pas une langue considérée comme noble et pourtant le jeune professeur commence à écrire ses premiers vers en néerlandais. Pour avoir défendu les plus faibles, ses supérieurs lui imposent une des paroisses les plus pauvres de la région. Il retourne finalement à Bruges en 1889 ou il y reste jusqu’à sa mort dix années plus tard.
Reconnu de son vivant pour la qualité de ses poésie, Guido Gezelle a cumulé les honneurs à partir de 1886. En 2012, la ville de Bruges l’a déclaré plus grand héros de Bruges et sa maison natale est transformée en musée depuis 1926.
Le musée Guido Gezelle (Gezellemuseum), situé à l’Est de la ville non loin d’un moulin au sein d’un quartier populaire et tranquille est complété d’un jardin romantique ou on imagine très bien le poète travaillant à l’ombre des grands arbres. La maison qui accueille le musée est une batisse rustique et fonctionnelle du 16ème siècle. Le père du poète y travaillait comme jardinier pour le compte d’un important commerçant de la ville. Guido y a donc vécu de nombreuses années et la nature, thème cher à ses écrits a certainement été inspiré par le jardin attenant.
The house below the image is the museum Guido Gezelle, Flemish poet of the 19th century, is one of the major figures of Belgian literature. A student at the major seminary in Bruges, he was ordained a priest and taught students. Flemish is not a language considered noble and yet the young teacher begins to write his first verses in Dutch. For having defended the weakest, his superiors imposed on him one of the poorest parishes in the region. He finally returned to Bruges in 1889 where he remained until his death ten years later.
Recognized during his lifetime for the quality of his poetry, Guido Gezelle accumulated honors from 1886. In 2012, the city of Bruges declared him the greatest hero of Bruges and his birthplace has been transformed into a museum since 1926.
The Guido Gezelle Museum (Gezellemuseum), located to the east of the city not far from a mill in a popular and quiet area, is complemented by a romantic garden where you can easily imagine the poet working in the shade. tall trees. The house that hosts the museum is a rustic and functional building from the 16th century. The poet's father worked there as a gardener for an important merchant in the city. Guido therefore lived there for many years and nature, a theme dear to his writings, was certainly inspired by the adjoining garden.
An old abandoned mill in Ozark, Missouri. It's nearby, but I had never seen it before.
It began operating in 1839, and the first post office of Ozark, MO, was located inside the mill, which was named Hoover Mill at that time. John Morris, the founder of Bass Pro, has talked about having a restaurant in the old building, which he now owns. What a view that restaurant would have!
The Crystal Mill is an 1892 wooden powerhouse located on an outcrop above the Crystal River in Crystal, Colorado. It is accessible from Marble, Colorado via four-wheel drive. The mill was constructed in 1893 by George C. Eaton and B.S. Phillips, promoters of the Sheep Mountain Tunnel and Mining Company. The mill was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 5, 1985.

The Grade II-listed Hardwater Mill is just to the west of Wellingborough in Northamptonshire, on the River Nene near Great Doddington. The buildings date from the mid-1700s to the early 1800s, though there has been a watermill on this site since the time of the Domesday Book. Milling ceased in 1946 and it is now a private residence.
Mill Brow has been designated as a Conservation Area of special architectural and historic interest. Mill Brow is a small hamlet I struggled to find it on a map.
It has just over fifty dwellings, mostly built of local millstone grit with the Pub Hare and Hounds lying at the centre of the hamlet. From the late medieval period Mill Brow was a community of scattered farms. By the early nineteenth century a dramatic change had occurred with the building of four cotton mills on Mill Beck, the stream flowing through Mill Brow which then became a flourishing industrial centre. With the decline in the importance of water power the mills fell into disuse and today their legacy is best seen in weavers’ and mill workers cottages. Mill Brow has been designated as a Conservation Area of special architectural and historic interest.
The picturesque Alley Spring Mill that is located six miles west of Eminence, Mo on State Route 106. The present building was constructed during 1893-1894 by George Washington McCaskill as a merchant mill. It was larger than most mills in the Jacks Fork area and replaced an earlier mill on this same site that was built by 1868.

Nord Mills Lantmännen grain silo, Malmö, Sweden.
The plant began to be built in the 1880s and many parts have been demolished and rebuilt.
No, it's not the UK, but right here in NEOhio. We hadn't bicycled Mill Creek Park (Boardman, Ohio) in many years, and I was happy to find the old mill still looking good. This local treasure was built in 1845 and restored to its working condition in 1982. It operates today as it did in the 1800s, grinding corn, wheat, and buckwheat. The products are made and sold on premises.
Willy Lott's Cottage, Flatford Mill, Suffolk. Made famous by John Constable's 'The Hay Wain'. Not the best time to shoot here, midday and straight into the sun!
The Isaac Ludwig Mill operated until the 1970's. That is why the portion of canal is still in such good condition and the lock is also well preserved. The mill was both a grist mill and a saw mill.

This is where I walked across the street and took the shot of the barn with the fence and creek. The farmer on the porch told me this mill was operating when he was a kid and he was in his early fifties. Check out the size of the water wheel.

Jerry's Law: Try not to blow your sky, like I did in this one.
Snapped at the local Mill pond in Emsworth. A classic Swan pose set against inky black pond water. This was a relatively bright day and with the spot metering on the camera, and the contrast between the swan and the water, the water came out very underexposed creating this black looking water.
The Swan has struck up this pose because there is a Black Swan visiting the area and there are some territorial games going on just out of sight.
A little surreal for mid-day but it does give a slightly more arty feel to the pic than it might otherwise have had.
I might also add that I had gone to the pond all setup to snap some in-flight action when I spontaneously took this. A shutter speed of 1/12800 and ISO 1000 was possibly overkill for this somewhat stationery subject! :-)
Thanks for looking.
Taken from the direction of Hawes town.
I tried to make this image as timeless as possible, devoid of the modern fripperies.
Believed to be the oldest known unaltered cotton mill in existence today. It was built in 1784 near the town of Hawes, in North Yorkshire.

This old mill stands at Newport, Kentucky's west side. Long disconnected from rail and closed for business.
I'm not just milling around in this competition, I'm grinding hard!
