Re-visiting an old shot of Pitstone Windmill :-) From Wikipedia - “Pitstone Windmill is thought to have been first built circa 1627 as this date is carved on part of the framework. This is the earliest date to be found on any windmill in the British Isles. It should be remembered that such a structure would have had to have frequent repairs made to it, so it is quite possible the mill predates 1627. For many hundreds of years grain grown in the two adjoining villages was ground at the mill into flour. In 1874 the mill was bought by Adelbert Wellington Brownlow Cust, 3rd Earl Brownlow who owned the nearby Ashridge Estate. He subsequently let it to a local farmer, who ran a successful milling business from the mill. In 1902 the mill was seriously damaged during an enormous gale, damaging it beyond the price of economic repair. Around 1922 the derelict ruined mill was bought from the Ashridge Estate by a farmer whose land was close to the mill. In 1937 he donated it to the National Trust. However, it was not until 1963 that a band of volunteers began to carry out renovations at their own expense. The mill appeared in an episode of The Champions titled The Invisible Man which was filmed in 1967. In 1970, after an interlude of 68 years, the mill once again ground corn.”

Sehenswerte Location in Brașov (Kronstadt) Rumänien mit besonderem Gruß an My Gottica Ein Genuß für alle Sinne! Auf den 2. Blick aber äußerst makaber: Wer war Dr. Jekelius ?

Denk dir ein Bild: Weites Meer, ein Segelschiff setzt seine weißen Segel und gleitet hinaus in die offene See. Du siehst, wie es kleiner und kleiner wird. Wo Wasser und Himmel sich treffen, verschwindet es. Da sagt jemand: Nun ist es gegangen. Ein anderer sagt: Es kommt. Der Tod ist ein Horizont, und ein Horizont ist nichts anderes, als die Grenze unseres Sehens. Wenn wir um einen Menschen trauern, freuen sich andere, ihn hinter der Grenze wiederzusehen. Unbekannt

Er sah nichts als die blaue Blume, und betrachtete sie lange mit unnennbarer Zärtlichkeit. Novalis (1772 - 1801)

This was the result of following a 'Digital Photo' magazine tutorial and I did put the original on that other site! A couple of errors that needed fixing have now been sorted and I thought it worthy of showing here on ipernity :-) I don't think the light in the wheelbarrow was being pinched................it was probably being taken away for repair/restoration :-)))
