Kinderdijk: Windmill

Posted by Illuci (Hurdegaryp, Netherlands) on 14 May 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.

This mill is a so-called standerd-mill which means that its "house" is completely turnable to catch the right wind direction, and not only its "cap" or "roof" as seen at the previous mills (except the first one). The shot is taken at full midday against the sunlight as an experiment because often the sky gets totally white in those cases and over-shines details such as branches and in this case, the sail frames of the mill. But by reducing aperture as much as possible I could prevent this, afterwards I brightened up the too dark parts a bit by photoprocessing.
