12 TITANIUM
Grand-Leez belgium
Le moulin-à-vent, appelé communément "Moulin Defrenne", fut construit en 1840 par les époux Sevrin-Heurion. Charles Sevrin était né à Grand-Leez le 24 brumaire de l'an 12 et son épouse Julienne Heurion y était née le 8 ventose de l'an 10 de la République. Vraisemblablement, afin de bâtir son moulin, Charles hérita de ses parents, propriétaires de la ferme située au bas du côteau, appelée couramment la ferme du "grand T'Chaurly" ou encore la Marache, une parcelle de terrain faisant partie de leur propriété.
Finally had time to make a picture again.

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.
Pitstone Windmill, believed to be the oldest windmill in Britain and dates from 1627. It stopped working after damage in the great storm of 1902 and was restored by local volunteers in 1963.
I came upon it by chance whilst I was having a quiet drive through the Chiltern Hills enjoying the countryside.

Windmill or no windmill, he said, life would go on as it had always gone on--that is, badly.

Consuegra

One more time...the Spanish windmills :-)
The Consuegra windmills have fame overall since the Don Quijchote 's stories were published in the 16th century.
The windmills, which by now have become a symbol of Spain, were originally used to grind grain. Most mills consist of 2 rooms on 2 floors. The miller had to lug the bags with grain to the top floor. A heavy work if you consider that these bags weighed about 60 a 70 kg each. Once at the top the grain was grind into flour through the heavy mill stones..
One turned the hood of the windmill as the wind direction changed and so the mill could always be used. The windmills remained in the family and were passed from father to son. Since the eighties of the last century the mills of Consuegra are no longer in use.

"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.
The Wilton Windmill is a five-floor brick tower mill located on a chalk ridge between the villages of Wilton and Great Bedwyn in the southern English county of Wiltshire.
The mill was built in 1821 because the construction of the Kennet and Avon Canal had included the canalisation of the River Bedwyn which had previously powered several water mills in the area.
