Windmills, Farmsteads & more

Couple more windmills. Taken on Winter Solstice last December. This location is about 1 hours southwest of our home, just within about a mile of the old church/school that I posted earlier. You've probably read that when taking pictures be sure to turn around & look, who knows what you might find. The vertical shot with the moon at the very top was exactly that. As I was concentrating on the barn, I wanted to change my spot and turned around to move & there it was. Good advice who ever gave it!

Twin Steeples Church near Waseca, MN. Some front step renovation going on in 2019. Story behind twin steeples is in 1950 they were two churches about 5 miles. Neither was sustainable by themselves. Farmers got together and moved one the 5 miles and teed them together. Successful ever since.

Here is a couple/few from 2016 in Morrow County taken with my old Panasonic Micro four thirds. I did what I could with what I had at the time.

Wife heavily edited this photo I took for a print she made. I think it was a greeting card. 🤷‍♂️

This past weekend, weather here turned out much nicer than it's been, wild fire smoke at least for now has cleared out, overcast skies - hit some real highlights! At least in my opinion. The school was built in 1896 from Kansas native limestone, 18 inch thick walls. What a structure!
