The former island, now peninsula Walcheren (Zeeland, The Netherlands) had in the past the nickname 'Garden of Holland'. Walcheren was inundated in 1944 (WW II) and flooded (by disaster) in 1953. Both events destroyed the picturesque character of Walcheren. Lots of effort has been spent to bring Walcheren back in its orignal state. Hope this series will show you that Walcheren got back some of its idyllic country roads and paths and its picturesque character again. This image is taken two days ago. Hope you'll enjoy this series. Thank you in advance for any comment.

A photo very well captured from an ideal angle, Cornelius. The different shades, the sunlight and shadows add to the beauty of this scene.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Beautiful C. It really is a beautiful scene. It is great that restoration is in progress and I hope the attempt to return it to its former beauty is successful. It is good right now.

Good health to you and yours.

Autumn is hitting the Netherlands Cornelius. A lovely rural scene.

I love all the silvery tones and you took this at such a nice angle. I am glad to hear they are bringing it back to its former beauty. Looks like they are well on the way.
