Neat reflection. I'm fascinated with old mills.
The machinery looks mysterious and complicated to me. Like the reflections of the wheels.
Very interesting structure and your pictures are wonderful with clear beautiful reflections!

This makes me think of England for some reason.
Just beautiful! I love how smooth the water looks. :)

Love old places - especially those made of old brick. Nice reflections in the water!
That is a great reflectionphoto, love the old mill. have a nice weekend
Gorgeous reflections - love these old mills that dot the landscape.
It was only when I visited Costa Rica that I realized what a machete was. We call it 'catana' and I thought the name came from the former Portuguese colonies in Africa, but the Japanese call it 'katana', so which came first? The egg or the hen? :-) By the way, do you know the Japanese word for thank you, 'harigato', comes from the Portuguese 'obrigado'? Funny, isn't it? :-) Actually it's not that strange as the Portuguese reached Japan in 1543.
On n'en voit pas si souvent des écluses... Bonne idée !
Beautiful reflection and I love being a tourist in your part of USA.
Really like the place, the building and the atmosphere...
Interesting place.
Interesting post with neat reflections, Jack.
Machetes? How surprising! I love the industrial look of the first reflection!
Splendid shots!
Beautiful reflection !
Love the old mill race machinery and their reflections. Well seen and photographed.
Yes, I really like the reflections, precious pictures!
I'm not really interested in machinery per se, but I do love the poetry of old industrial sites like this, all those rusty old cogs and wheels. Something very satisfying about it.
I like these old buildings and there are so many of them in Connecticut and all throughout New England. I enjoy learning about their history. Nice images.
Pretty shots!
The top one knocked my flip flops off!

Very nice reflections. Love the first one.
Those gears are awesome and the reflections pristine.
Really cool reflections Jack, I had to click and see your first shot of the old mill...what a wonderfully coloured old building.
Interesting reflection and kind of sad seeing the old buildings. It looks very peaceful.
