I found the photograph eventually by Googling old farm, windpump, satellite re-entry. Then I kept finding it. It seems to have been the go-to snap to liven the articles about space junk which appeared around February 2022. In this ‘Post Truth’ World there was no indication if these were the relevant Starlink satellites or just useful decoration the syndicators found in their files. It was the satellite aspect which sent me in the direction I went. DaveP
