As soon as I saw the theme of light for this week's #smartphonephotography, I knew I had a photo I've wanted to share for some time.
The windmills at Kinderdijk are an incredible testament to man's ingenuity. These famous windmills (now a UNESCO World Heritage Site) were built in the 18th Century (1738-40) to solve the problem of water in the fields by pumping the water up and into a reservoir. True science and ingenuity proved a successful solution. A few years ago I had a chance to tour these historic windmills and look inside them. It's no surprise how the masters used settings like this with the incredible natural light to make beautiful paintings that hang in museums today. Taken on an iPhone 5c.
