A big part of Holland or The Netherlands is laying below sea-level and has to be protected against flooding. Therefore there's a protection system consisting of several protection layers. The first protection layer is usually a relative high sea dike. The second layer is a lower dike more inland. Such a lower dike can be seen at this image. At this image you can see more of our protection system against flooding. Hope it's interesting to you and that you'll enjoy this image. PS: image was captured at October, 23th, 2007.

Thanks for all the background material.
Excellent lines. Thanks for sharing this beauty.

Vraag me af, waarom je zolang gewacht hebt met
het posten van deze schitterende, en 'schiderachtige'
unieke plaat, Cornelius!
Well done, 'ambassadeur' van de provincie "Zeeland"!

MY PHOTOGRAFIC VISION...
I am not an artist, I only let you see with my eyes...!
A beautiful image, Cornelius, with the tree-lined road and the house on the side. The colours are very nice and the photo on the whole excellent.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Another gorgeous shot with lovely colors and composition!
As John already said... it looks like a painting!
Magnificent work Cornelius!

When you're through with life and all hope is lost.
Hold out your hand 'cos friends will be friends - right till the end.
I hope the weather we are receiving now, will bounce back from those 'protection' layers mate!
it's a beauty of an image with a great composition!

Very nice image, and very informative caption. I always knew about the outer dike, but I had no idea that there was another one farther inland. The colors are magnificent. Well done.

God's magnificent creation is full of beauty waiting to be captured - when you think you've seen it all, something you've never seen comes up and amazes you.

I love the lines in this C. Your information is excellent. I also like the tree lined road. You captured this perfectly and the composition is just great. Presentation is excellent as well. Just a great photo.

Hi Cornelius,
That IS a very interesting bit of information. This image is beautiful, especially the road going through the lines of trees, that are all leaning. The diagonals are great. I really like the setting for that house...when can I move in?

Looks really pretty for such a practical use. Very interesting about the whole system. This shot is really nice, Cornelius.

A picture is worth a thousand words.
2nd, altho you say it was late October, you really caught a peaceful feeling of a late summer day. Almost domestic. Reminds me a bit of some of your Ren. painters!
And last, I love the composition: the right foreground orange repeated in the left center vine & bush, and the TWO vistas leading out of the picture, at different planes center left and right. This shot goes on forever! LOVELY!!!
