Back in December, I visited the islands of Estonia. Namely, Muhu and Saaremaa. When we arrived in Muhu by ferry and after we had something to eat, we made a quick stop at the Eemu windmill. This is located on the western side of Muhu, right next to the road that leads to Saaremaa.
The weather was stunning. One of the best winter weathers I can hope for. Deep fresh snow and sunny cold weather. If I recall correctly there was only one more instance like this last winter.
The windmill is open to the public since the 80s and serves no economic purpose anymore. In the summer months, you can visit this place and get inside the windmill. I have heard that you have to possibility to make your own flour too. This windmill has become the symbol of the island Muhu. The island itself is only 15km across.
Here are some more winter wonderland photos I took in the area.
By the windmill, you can see some trenches in the ground. These are there since world war 1. We hardly saw anything but just a bit was visible under the deep cover of snow. There is a board with information regarding to these trenches.
I have some more crazy show shots coming. The snowfall period didn't stop on this day during our trip to these islands.
Don't forget to participate in my monthly weather guessing game here and you might win 10 HIVE. The game is open until the 17th of April.
These are awesome. I love the look of the windmills.
Windmills are always photogenic things to photography.
This is a true winter wonderland. I don't remember when was the last time that I saw so much fresh snow. I love when it sticks on trees as it's a great opportunity for fantastic photos.
I'm looking forward to seeing those crazy shots! 🙂
Have a lovely day!
Wish I could see it more often during the winter. Requires certain conditions for trees to look like that. Below zero temps and no wind when the snow is falling, sunny day is the ultimate bonus!
Have an awesome day too!
Wow this is kind of scene we never see in Vietnam.
It's so beautiful. I wish I could enjoy this kind of view in the future.
You are welcome to travel to Estonia in the wintertime! Dont hope for a great sunshine during the winter too much but you might get lucky 😀.
These snowy pictures look like a fairy tale! We got almost no snow this season in New York City, the smallest snowfall for a season on record.
However, I'm writing today because I was unable to tag you in our Kingdom of Glory discord server. I'm working to help Zagor distribute the land plots and I have a few questions about your plots we are looking to get answered in the next 24-36 hours, including the payment of DEC for any land starter packages you might want.
You can contact me on discord/twitter/hive @ducecrypto, but I'm not even exactly sure how to DM people on Hive. You can always reply and tell me where to look. Thanks for your help!
Ahh, damn. Its down to a preference wether one wants snow but dirt and black ground is the worst in winter imo.
I´ll write you a DM on discord.
The DM wont go through. Accept the friend request, maybe it will then.
Omg! That's absolutely beautiful.
Truly!
Aaaahh, nii kaunis! 😍
Ja omg, ma olen 666. upvoter 😈
Haha, Õnnitlen!😀
That place looks like paradise to me, even though it must have been cold. These shots are fantastic.
Thank you! It was a total winter paradise yeah. The temperature was about -10 degrees C. This is what creates these beautiful light ambiences and white frozen trees.
