Kinderdijk is an amazing village to visit in The Netherlands. The site has 19 windmills (or molens) within a relatively small area. Kinderdijk means "children dike." The windmills were first erected about 1740.

Built in 1795 this windmill saw real use until the end of the 19th century. In 1974 it was moved from it's original position and placed on the National Register of Historical Places and is now maintained by the Brewster Historical Society. In front of the windmill was this really cute 20 month old girl whose parents were just to the side watching her just off camera.
The Conception Wind Farm is located just over the hill from Conception Abbey in North Missouri. Our camera club recently took a photo field trip to the abbey. As we left we stopped to take photos of the giant windmills. We were fortunate to have this combine arrive on the horizon shortly after we started shooting.
Magnificent sunset at chesterton windmill last night, me and Sam got there just in time, like the vapor trails in this shot, like brush stokes in the sky! Very poetic :-)

Windmill located in Gruene Texas. Gruene is now a district within the city limits of New Braunfels, and much of it was listed in the National Register of Historic Places
It's taken me 3 visits, but yesterday evening I finally got a photo here I feel is worth posting! This was taken around 20 minutes after sunset, when the beautiful oranges and pinks of dusk were sitting behind the windmill. The lights being switched on was a bonus, though I do wish they would either light up it all, or none.
I was lucky to get this composition, there was a big pile of dried up manure, around 13ft high which I clambered up in order to shoot over the bushes. The things we do for the shot eh?

This windmill is one of Warwickshire's most famous landmarks, standing on a hilltop overlooking the village of Chesterton for nearly 350 years, near the Roman Fosse Way and about five miles (8 km) south-east of Warwick. It was built in 1632-1633, probably by Sir Edward Peyto, who was Lord of the Chesterton Manor House. At this time John Stone, a pupil of Inigo Jones, was in Chesterton, designing the new Manor House, and he probably helped with the Windmill as well. Sir Edward was a mathematician and astrologer and probably his own architect to the windmill, but although claims have been made that the tower was originally built as an observatory, the estate accounts now at Warwick Record Office show that it has always been a windmill,[2] making it the earliest tower mill in England to retain any of its working parts.

Cley windmill іs а five storey tower mill wіth а stage аt second floor level, twenty feet above ground. Іt has а dome shaped cap wіth а gallery whіch wаs winded by аn eight-bladed fantail, ten feet six inches іn diameter. The cap іs nоw fixed аnd unable tо turn tо wind. There аre four double Patent sails wіth а span оf 70 ft, carried оn stocks 56ft long. The inner pair hаve eight bays оf three shutters аnd the outer pair hаve nine bays оf twо shutters аnd оne оf three shutters. Іn 1819 the sails powered twо pairs оf French burr millstones, а flour mill аnd jumper but by 1876 thіs hаd been increased tо 3 pairs оf stones аnd а smut machine hаd been added.
Cley windmill wаs built іn the early 19th century. Іt wаs nоt marked оn William Faden’s map оf Norfolk published іn 1797. The fіrst mention wаs аn advert іn the Norfolk Chronicle оf 26 June 1819, where the mill wаs fоr sale, described аs “newly erected” аnd іn the ownership оf the Farthing family. The mill wаs nоt sold аnd remained the property оf the Farthing family, until 1875, when Dorothy Farthing, the then owner, died. The mill wаs bought by the miller, Stephen Barnabas Burroughes. Іt wаs worked by the Burroughes family until c1912, when the business wаs transferred tо theіr windmill аt Holt.
