Mire, vuestra merced, respondió Sancho, que aquellos que allí se parecen, no son gigantes, sino molinos de viento.

En la ruta de don Quijote por la Mancha, nos encontramos con Campo de Criptana, que ofrece una serie de los famosos molinos de viento que la locura del Hidalgo confundió con gigantes.

"Look, sir," Sancho said. "Those aren't giants, but windmills.

Trough the Don Quxote route all along La Mancha, we find Campo de Criptana, a town that offers a few of the windmills that Quixote confused as terrific giants.

Buenos dias Carlos,

A great composition of the famous windmills and the black fresques make a great contrast. Nice to see them in a good condition. Windmills are one of my favourite objects, but unluckily most of them are ruined and usually not in use here: my mills and windmills


best regards
Sibel

Hi Carlos, very good sharp photo, excellent POV, i like the fact that the whit is not so bright here although the object and the focus is on white. well done.

Hola Carlos. Son muchas las fotos que hay por aquí de estos molinos, pero el punto de vista que has elegido aquí me parece fantástico, la verdad. Esas dos figuras sobre el muro son como dos sombras intemporales que subrayan la fuerza de un relato literario eterno... Muy buena.

the picture reminds you something from greece!I like a lot colours and the frame is perfect!

Hola Carlos,
Muy buena toma de este conocido lugar, no recuerdo haber visto esas figuras cuando estuve por ahí hace año y medio.
Excelente punto de vista y resolución.
Cordialmente,
Charo

Hola Carlos,
The black painting of Don Quijote and Sancho Panza on this white wall makes this windmill picture more beautiful and interesting.
Thanks for your note.
Best regards, Paul

Bonjour Carlos.
J'aime beaucoup cette photo. Le graphisme des deux figurines sur le mur blanc, juste dessous le beau moulin traditionnel, blanc également fait un ensemble très agréable.
