On my recent trip to The Netherlands I took a lot of pictures of Windmills in anticipation of using a couple of the photos in my Environmental Science class when we talk about Types of Energy in the Wind Power section. Unfortunately I didn't get a good picture of a full windmill from the front or back! All my pictures were either very distant, from the side or close-ups of the inner workings. I would have to add a picture or two to my presentation in order to show students what the windmill structure from all angles so they get a better understanding of what one looks like and how it works. Photos are especially important since I don't have a full sized windmill in my schoolyard for the students to explore.
I added one of my own windmill pictures that I took while in Zaanse Schans The Netherlands to flickr. It can be found here and is seen below. It was licensed as an Attribution License with Creative Commons.
