Have You Been Waiting Long?, by jakeof
Halnaker Mill was first mentioned in 1540 as belonging to the manor of “Halfnaked”. It was built for the Duke of Richmond as the feudal mill of the Goodwood Estate. The surviving mill is thought to date from the 1740s and is known to have been standing c.1780. Halnaker Mill was working until struck by lightning in 1905, damaging the sails and windshaft. The derelict mill was restored in 1934 by Neve’s, the Heathfield millwrights as a memorial to the wife of Sir William Bird. Further repair work was done in 1954 by E Hole and Sons, The Burgess Hill millwrights. The mill was again restored in 2004. The mill is owned by West Sussex County Council. Halnaker Windmill by Hillaire Belloc circa 1918 Sally is gone that was so kindly, / Sally is gone from Ha’nacker Hill / And the Briar grows ever since then so blindly; / And ever since then the clapper is still… / And the sweeps have fallen from Ha’nacker Mill. Ha’nacker Hill is in Desolation: / Ruin a-top and a field unploughed. / And Spirits that call on a fallen nation, / Spirits that loved her calling aloud, / Spirits abroad in a windy cloud. Spirits that call and no one answers— / Ha’nacker’s down and England’s done. / Wind and Thistle for pipe and dancers, / And never a ploughman under the Sun: / Never a ploughman. Never a one.

The London Eye by Adri Padmos
This picture needs no further explanation, I suppose…. This attraction may stand in London, the production has taken place in many parts of Europe. The cabins were made in France by a specialist in ski lifts. The glassware for the cabins, however, from Italy. Czech Republic took the production to 23 meter long (335 ton) axle and hub on his behalf. In the Netherlands were made the steel rim and the legs (310 tons); the drive and controller is designed and built in the Netherlands (by the company Bosch Rexroth). Germany got the contract for the manufacture of bearings.

The London Eye by Britta Döll
Featured in Windmills, Watermills and Ferris Wheels * / . / When I was in London in 2007 with a group of my students I took my time trying to get some interesting shots with unusual perspectives. I walked along the Thames with the girls of my class, trying to get some pictures of the architecture of the bridges along the river when we came to the “London Eye”. Although I’ve been to London before I was impressed by this large construction. / As I still find it difficult to get clear shots out of the capsules while being on the Eye, I tried to get an image of this enormous wheel. I sat on the ground beyond the wheel to keep the camera steady and – here it is… / Hope you may find something interesting in it. Post processing: rotated slightly to the left, cropped, enhanced contrasts a bit, reduced brightness a bit, added some blue, reduced noise as this was not taken with a digital camera, sharpened
