Hey pals Billy's back !!!
I've been having a few problems with my laptop's power supply adaptor,but it's all fixed now,so here I am,fired up, ready to rumble !!!
This shot is from my St.Fagan's series-it's another view of the old mill.
Water turns the mill wheel,wheel turns the grindstone,miller feeds the corn to grindstone,flour drops into sacks---job done--simple as pimples !!
Going to make some visits now--see you on your blogs..

i am glad you are back! This image is awesome. I love the tones. It is very rich in colors and it seems to also have historical significance.

Beautiful, rich Fall colors - nice! I like the border/vignette, too. Say, I've got a Mill Wheel coming up soon, too - great minds think alike!
