Quite where and when these two came together in the first windmill is unknown, but a likely scenario suggests a Persian origin, from where (tradition has it) the knowledge spread back into Northern Europe as a result of the Crusades.

Photography is my passion. The ability to capture a moment in time and record it for time immemorial has always fasinated me.
