I agree with Mike. Outstanding.

The scene is enticing and to me begs for a more panoramic view of more of the surrounding landscape with the windmill as the focal point. Great shots but I want more!
VERY nice, Cany. The second one is my favorite. The sky is so beautiful.
Very nice Jim. The sky in the background is so beautiful!

Something more panoramic, Nalu?
Like something like this?
Great subject matter, great images.
And I usually am cloning out the current version of a windmill, the wind turbine.
But then I have nowhere near the skill to create such beautiful photos as you do. Please keep posting!

Fantastic image!!!
Are the Sails metal?
The 'sails' are, I assume (having never personally climbed up there find out up close & personal-like) metal,
mein herr Mangle. Only metal takes bullets in precisely the same way as these (metal) sails --and even moreso, the direction vane as well!)-- have, and they show that definite 'bullet hit metal' signature.

You're just saying that because The Aermotor Company started off in 1888 in Chicago, arn'cha, CANON. Admit it. Confess! Granted, the company got moved to Oklahoma then to Arkansas and ultimately to Texas, but those moves didn't take place before THIS Aermotor was put in place by the CCC in 1937.
In all, I know of about 6 of these things. I say 'about' because one of 'em no longer has it's wings or its (trademarked) vane, so maybe that one was made by some different (non-Chicago) company. I dunno.
