That is a good looking windmill. The fading sun on the building above adds a nice touch.

Looks like a "skeletal" windmill. Is this one functional or just aesthetic? Such a pastoral scene!

@rajalekshmy: Thank you, there are 8 windmills but no one in use!
@Baz: Thank you very much Baz!

Very nice point of view on those windmills. A few minutes before when the sun was still lighting the windmill might have been very nice too.
