Dutch Mill in Oud Ade by Adri Padmos
Hello dear RB-friends! Because it is grey and rainy weather here I show you a spring picture that I have made in a small village, Oud Ade (Old Ade), from this mill, the Vrouw Vennemolen (Woman Venne Mill). Old Ade is a village in the Dutch province South-Holland, close to Leiden and belonging to the municipality Alkemade. Old Ade is a relative young village that lies in the Woman Vennepolder. Something at west of Old Ade is this mill, the Woman Vennemill. The mill dates from the 17th century and has been built for the drainage works of the Woman Vennepolder. In 1835, the mill has been renovated. At the bottom of the mill is a house. In 1954, for the drainage works an electric mill has been placed. The Rijnlandse Mill Foundation is the owner of the Woman Vennemolen since 1961, and have restored the mill in 1997/1998. The mill manages the reduced level in the polder after the restoration.

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.

Windmills outside Copenhagen by imagic
Hello everyone. / I am unfortunately in a hectic time, my work takes too much of my spare time, but I hope this will change drastically when the month of December is over. Right now I am at work – but have taken me the time to visit the net and you. / To let you know that I am still here, I have taken my time to upload a single photo, and I also hope to find time to comment on some of your many beautiful photos. / This photo is taken in the waters between Denmark and Sweden, just outside Copenhagen, where there is a deferred right spectacular windmill park. / Wind turbines in Denmark produces around 20% of our total energy consumption in the country, and it increased steadily, and windmills have evolved into a huge business in and outside Denmark. Photo: Canon 400D / Lens: Canon EF 70-300 IS USM / f.10,0 / s1/500sek / Focal length 300mm / ISO 100 Many greetings from / Jens
