Photographer's Note
What other title could you use for a picture of windmills in La Mancha, Quixote country? Unfortunately, these windmills are after Cervantes' time. But they're no less atmospheric and inspiring for it.
The drive up to the windmills from Consuegra is both scenic and a bit unnerving, especially if you're driving a standard. It's steep and has a number of dropoffs on a narrow road. But the view of the windmills, the ruined castle, and the surrounding La Mancha countryside is totally worth it.

Hello Clark
It looks like very picturesque place indeed and well worth the steep drive. The windmills are a sight to behold and the ruined castle impressive, all under the immaculate blue sky of Spain. Very pleasant composition indeed.
have a great Sunday

Hi Clark
That is an awesome view and I think we'll worth the scary drive. Such a beautiful perspective with the windmills leading off to the castle, even the modern Crambe lips good in the photo. Great place and photo
Cheers

Hi Clark!
I must go there! This is a great place and the view must be amazing, especially because of the patterns of the fields. A very good composition, with good light and colours!
