In the 19th century the flour mills in Vejer were water driven. The best known is located in the Santa Lucía area of Vejer. Windmills were constructed on the ridge which were able to withstand the strong easterly gusts. The four windmills that remain in the San Miguel district on the edge of the village were built in the 1960s and have since been restored.
I finally made a trip to see the beautiful Halnaker tunnel of trees and windmill, which is looking wonderful with its new sails.
Another view just after we got there.
This darker cloud was in place to help as a background so made good use before it moved off.

Lytham Windmill is situated on Lytham Green in the coastal town of Lytham St Annes, Lancashire, England. It is of the type known as a tower mill and was designed for grinding wheat and oats to make flour or bran. The mill was built on Lytham marshes around 1805 on land leased by the local landowner and squire to miller Richard Cookson. Wikipedia The building to the right of the windmill was formerly the lifeboat station and was opened in 1863.
Windmill or no windmill, he said, life would go on as it had always gone on--that is, badly.

"Bidston Windmill" Decided to pay the windmill a visit today, just checking it out for my Lighthouse and windmill photoshoot in 2 weeks time. Loaded up with my new Nisi V5 Pro holder and Haida Grads and NDs i shot this image, waited 20 minutes for the sun to come out for a brief amount of time, F/11@ 60 seconds Haida 0.9 Soft ND Grad and a 10 stop Haida ND, note for all you blue colour cast haters, this is straight out of the camera.
Another photo of this superb sunrise, but now without the cows (they weren't on the edge of the meadow yet then).
Some of you might notice I forgot my watermark in the bottom right corner. I did this on purpose, to test if the magic donkey called Explore is excluding watermarked photos, as the rumours say. The photo from yesterday, Scene in the Krimpenerwaard, was posted in only 6 groups (no award-begging groups), did had only 8 tags ánd a watermark, but did not reach Explore (not even the bottom 100 or so). I had 512 views in a day, 93 favorites in a day, 72 comments in one day and was added to one gallery, without hitting the Explore pages. Also in the first hour after posting I had already received 20 favorites and 15 comments, but the magic donkey did not notice it. Perhaps due to the watermark? I will find it out in the short future: I post some photos without watermark and see if those will reach it. Of course, this one isn't as good as yesterday, so if this one will reach it, I now enough. It know it is only Explore, but sometimes it is nice to reach new people, who usually do not visit my page. Explore is an excellent way to do this. If anyone of you have identical or other thoughts about Explore, please share them with me!
Despite my complaints about Explore I want to thank you all for the lovely comments on the photo from yesterday, some remarks were really touching ("vakwerk", "adembenemend", "droomplaat" etc.) to read. Of course that's more valuable to me than Explore!
