Description

My latest picture about the windmill in moonlight. It can be found on the plateau of Tes (Hungary). It has been built by Janos Ozi in 1924 but it doesn't work recently. The illuminated scene was breathtaking around midnight. In the background can be seen the rising of the summer constellation: Lyra and Cygnus.
