Photographing windmills

1/320 sec at f/4.8, ISO 80, 44.4mm Canon G9

My lovely assistant, Sarah, took this shot of me in a barley field near Pitstone Mill whilst photographing the oldest windmill on the British Isles. I've uploaded a few windmill images to my istockphoto portfolio and hopefully all of them will be available to download within a week or so.

Here's a taster...

Pitstone Windmill is near Ivinghoe Beacon in the Chiltern Hills. It was built around 1627 to grind grain although it is no longer in use.
