Captured at the peninsula Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands. Thanks to my friend John (Rozem061) for his remark. My initial title said only 'cornfield'. But, as far as I know now, this title would be only valid in the USA. In the UK, however, I should say 'maize field' as it's a field with maize plants indeed. Sorry for this slip (due to the language barrier).

Amazing maize field. The pale sky looks good behind the windmill. Nice framing too.

very nice perspective you shot this from. Maize is also called sweetcorn here , but i guess when its growing its called maize and when you eat it its called sweetcorn! go figure! :-)

I see, Cornelius!
Wel heel verwarrend allemaal, als ik bovenstaande
'comments'van Lyn en Jan, lees!
Maar wel een heel bijzondere foto, zo midden
in een 'Maisveld!' (lol)
Is het noch wel te bezichtigen, Cornelius? of moet men
wachten tot na de oogst!?

In Vlaanderen wordt een windmolen gelinkt aan koren.In Nederland fungeerden deze ook als pompgemaal meen ik.Is wel een geslaagde foto hoor Cornelius.

That's a really nice perspective. All you can see is the maize and the windmill appears to be coming out from the middle of the field. I find windmills to be romantic. I don't know why. I do love this shot.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

I see that you're working with the same sort of sky that I have been lately. It's a frustrating process for me. You, on the other hand did a very good job of balancing out the colors and making this field and the windmill look great!

"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon

Another one of your pretty mills. I like how it stands there in the corn. Good work again.
