Star Sails Greetings Card

A striking greetings card featuring the historic Bidston Windmill silhouetted beneath a star-filled night sky. Photographed on a clear spring night, the familiar outline of the windmill and its sails stands against the darkness while countless stars fill the sky above, revealing a very different side to one of the Wirral’s best-known landmarks.

Perched high on Bidston Hill, the windmill has been part of the Wirral landscape for generations, and after dark its distinctive silhouette makes a wonderful foreground for photographing the night sky. Star Sails brings together local history and the beauty of the stars in a peaceful and atmospheric view of this much-loved Wirral landmark.

Perfect for anyone with a connection to Bidston or the Wirral, as well as those who love local landscapes, historic landmarks and night-sky photography.

Inspired to capture your own version? I’ll be running a Night Sky over Bidston Windmill photography workshop in the spring, where you can learn how to photograph the windmill beneath the stars and create your own night-sky images.
