Paired my two favourite things yesterday, photography and motorbikes, by taking a little trip to Thurne Mill. The light didn't turn out quite as I'd hoped with a rather lacklustre sunset. There was a brief time when the light was quite golden which is when I took these. Both processed with Photomatix with different styles. Think I like the second one best...

loving the first one - though the second one isn't too shabby either.... still need to work out exactly how to get to it......
 
I like both versions of the shot.
 
I prefer No1 I like the detail and the soft tones :clap:

I did a bit of 'recce' on Google Maps and The Photographers Ephemeris first, to see where the sun would set in relation to the two windmills at Thurne. Turned out the one I thought I would shoot wasn't as accessible as I thought and so went with this one. I'm going to go again another time when its nice and sunny with good patchy cloud for a different style.

Here is where these were taken. I used a GPS app on my Android phone to record the track before using LR4 to add it to the photos metadata.

Thanks for the replies
 
cheers - i thought there was only one (low left on your map) which was why I wondered how to access it.

I assum ethe one you took is on the right of the river as I look at the pic.
 
What a great set, I really like both but the atmosphere in number one keeps me looking at it.
 
Again, thanks for the comments.

No. 1 is a better representation of the actual light whilst I was there and is growing on me.

I've got some portrait versions that I might have a play with too.

Re the location, yes the windmill I've posted is the one on the right side of the river.
