Westkapelle is a coast village at the peninsula Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands. This Westkapelle lighthouse stands in the middle of this village about 1 mile from the coast. At this place in 1470 a church and tower were built. After the church was pulled down, the remaining tower was (in 1818) converted into a lighthouse. In 1906 this lighthouse got its present light. I've climbed this tower and so I was able to capture a detail image of its top, which I posted yesterday. To Lyn I like to say: I didn't fly (this time) (lol).

Wat een verrassing Cornelius.Ik had nooit gedacht dat boven op die stenen toren nog een metalen vuurtoren zou hebben gestaan.Wat een originele aanpak en tevens ook een prachtfoto.

Today will be the first day of a new future.
Al wat ik verwacht had, Cornelius,maar dit niet!
Ik weet niet zeker of ik dit nou een mooie combinatie vind!
Dat doet niks af van je foto hoor!, daar is niks mis mee!En om met Hubert te spreken, het blijft een originele foto!
(Rare jongens die Zeeuwen!...LOL)
Bedankt, Cornelius!,Altijd weer leuk om te zien die 'rariteiten'

If you have some minutes why don't you come visiting my gallery ?
I would never have guessed that this is what the tower would look like after seeing the top of it yesterday. What a study in contrasts!

"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
I am not sure, if there is any lighthouse in this world, that is more interesting like this one - and man, this is hudge! Great and very interesting image.

I would be happy, seeing you in my galerie. Today I've posted Beauties on the Rocks
I think this is the first lighthouse I have ever seen that was not round, but square instead! Its beautiful too...nice shot of a gorgeous landmark..Verena
