Photo of the mill at Makkum (near Beilen) in fog. The photo was taken on an early morning in summer, in June. Gusts of fog lay over the land. The mill and its sails peaked nicely above it. The sky was coloured orange by the rising sun. The photo was taken from the land behind the mill. On the horizon, you can see mill, trees and farms. A beautiful typical Dutch landscape.
The Mill of Makkum is a corn mill in the hamlet of Makkum, directly southeast of Beilen in the province of Drenthe.
A group of volunteer millers grind the mill weekly.
The mill has never had an official name, but is usually referred to as the Mill of Makkum.
Sunrise, Drenthe, Netherlands, mill, sails. fog. Ground fog. magical.
