Old Mill From the movie Gone With The Wind

[Bill Swartzwelder]

This old mill was used in the opening scenes of the 1939 movie Gone With The Wind. It is in North Little Rock Arkansas. I haven't picked up my camera in quite some time, but a friend asked me to help her do some family portraits next week at this location, so I went to do some scouting today. Skies were cloudy and gray, so not only am I out of practice, but I also didn't have the best light. After processing this one I kind of liked it... Hope everyone here is doing well... I realize I have missed hanging out here.

Good to see you back Bill. This is indeed a photogenic mill, and it looks pretty good here.

Hey Bill,

You have been missed! It's spring time, hopefully you an get out with your camera more.

This is a very cool shot. And that is interesting about the history of it. It's a very cool looking Mill that you captured well.

I think I have seen some shots of this place before - looks like a neat place to shoot. I love the landscaping in your shot.

Thanks everyone for the kind comments. It is nice to feel like I am still a part of this community, even though i have been absent for so long.
