Spent a couple of hours today just nosing around some old farms, I took a mess of photos which I haven't gone through yet, but here are a few of an old windmill to start with. I don't think it has worked for a long time.

I really like the second and third shot. I wish I had taken barn photos with advertisements on them when I used to travel. I look forward to seeing more of your post.

Nice work Dook...old windmills are slowing fading away. At least here in the US. Being replaced by the new breed of electric generation type but not as pretty as the old ones. I always wanted a good windmill shot...looks like you got some good ones!

Nice, Dook! I especially like #3. Speaks to me. You can just feel the wind getting ready to turn the vanes!

Thanks everybody. There are quite a few old windmills in Oz, but very few are still working. They were/are mainly used to pump water for stock, mainly cattle. Earl.
