Went on the staging of the 'Oranjemolen' in Flushing, Zeeland, the Netherlands, in order to make a picture of the river Western Scheldt, just where it flows into the North Sea. As you can see, not only boats or ships have steering wheels, but traditional windmills as well.

Hope you like this image. Thank you in advance for your comment.

Edit: understand by the put forward questions, that a little explanation would be helpful: with this wheel the top of the mill with its sails attached, is turned manuallly towards the wind.

I believe you could compose a nice photo of anything you wanted to. This is very artistically done, and eye appealing with that view beyond the wheel. Super work, Cornelius.

Windmills have steering wheels! That is so cool. I learn something every day, often right here on Caedes World of International Sharing. :))

You are getting itchy sea feet C. What a great capture. The clarity and colors are superb. I really like the shot through the wheel. Great composition.

Good health to you and yours.
