Those mammoth generators are more likely to come across than an old style farm windmill




This is one of a group of three, 140 m high mast, 200m with the blade. Located in Hilpensberg, which is 10 km to where I live. Seems like, the installation caused a public reaction:


Anyway, there they are. Today the weather was so unexpectedly good that:
- that 20 km ride turned into a 120 km one
- two BMW 1200GS riders I came across actually waved back
Definitely it must be the weather...

Nice job tuareg. The wind turbines certainly don't hide in the trees like like the windmills. I really like the turbine in the mirror photo, complete with RLETs.

The wind turbines are clearly easier to spot than the wind mills, although getting close can sometimes be difficult. Although there are numerous wind turbines around Lubbock and hundreds further South, I took my sample photo from the parking lot of our local windmill museum because I could get a nice close picture.

This old windmill is from 1872 and stands in Germany/Schleswig Holstein/Probsteierhagen/Krokau.
It's name is derived from it, simply 'Krokauer Mühle'. CB and windmill fit nicely together.

Now that is a proper windmill! Perfect staging of the CB on the grass in front. That photo certainly deserves to be framed
