Yesterday was wet and stormy...I was not inspired to take photos. But, I accidentally discovered this windmilland decided to come closer to take a picture.
As I was looking for the best angle, I saw in the background the alignment of newly installed wind turbines.
Shot in Montceau-et-Echarnant
47° 3'27.73"N 4°39'37.77"E= location of the well renoved windmill (2003 and 2011) which was first erected probably in the 14th century
I found the perspective with the wind turbines quite interesting...nice contrast .

I'm standing 78 m away from the wind mill and the first wind turbine is about 980 m far away behind it.Focal length set at 58 mm

Great concept and photo! Wasn't there a saying like whatever is old becomes new again? I can envision a picture with a modern EV next to a 120 year old Baker Electric.
