In the time that Veere, the Netherlands, was connected to 'open sea' (till 1961), the harbour was used as harbour for fishing vessels. In 1961 the 'Veerse Gat Dam' was built as part of a project to protect the provinces of Zeeland and South-Holland against a potential disaster (called 'Deltaplan'). From that time on the 'Veerse Gat' (Strait of Veere) became the 'Lake of Veere' and this fishing harbour became yacht haven.

This is simply idyllic! You've captured a beautiful view - and thank you for the history too.

We are like people looking for something they have in their hands all the time; we're looking in all directions except at the thing we want, which is probably why we haven't found it.(Plato, 380BC)
Good old times...... very peacefull scene Cornelius! Very well captured. Great work!
