Sedona, Arizona, USA. In past times, Sedona had numerous large ranches, raising cattle and cash crops. With climate changes over time, being too arid for ranching, most ranches have closed. This one, Crescent Moon Ranch was incorporated into a state park. Near Oak Creek, this overshot water wheel mill, built in 1936, served the ranch by producing electricity. Now it is part of the ambiance of the park.

Good picture....If that had been a residence,I reckon the squeaking of the wheel turning would have driven them mad.....R.

I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?

---With climate changes over time....----

Thad, it's a pity that some people deny that there are climate changes now.
I won't like to be involved in these (political) discussions however. I prefer to spend some of my time to enjoy this fine capture, because it's a nostalgic, well composed, and lovely one, with fine colors.

Great find and wonderful photo Thad.
Love the textures.
Perhaps the old days weren't as bad as we think.

Quite impressive, to see a mill still standing and such good shape. Fine capture.
