Captured this image of the beach and seafront of Flushing, Zeeland, The Netherlands at December 7th, 2008. While a lot of places/countries at the northern hemisphere are covered now with snow, people here are still enjoying the sunny beach and seafront by making for instance a stroll. As Flushing (In Dutch called 'Vlissingen') is the hometown of my Caedes-friend Els, known as 'Twinkel', I gave this image the title 'Twinkel Town' (rather inventive, isn't it, lol!).

Hope you'll enjoy this image. Thank you in advance for any comment.

Twinkel is very fortunate to live in such a wonderful place. i'd love to live near the water. the view shows me that the town has many contemporary buildings. it's a great angle. fine work, cornelius. the frame is perfect for this one.

Twinkel lives in a very beautiful town. I like how the diagonal & vertical lines of the beach fence lead the viewer into the scene. A nice crisp image ... superbly captured & composed.

Such a beautiful change of pace C. The title reminds me of Tinseltown.

Such beautiful colors and composition in this one.

Good health to you and yours.

Ook Vlissingen opgestuwd in de vaart der volkeren!
En hoe men ook over moderne architectuur denkt, (Persoonlijk hou ik wel van deze moderne boulevard van Vlissingen!)
het is niet anders, je hebt er een schitterende foto van gemaakt!

What a great perspective and really nice clarity here, Cornelius. That is a really nice town, that Twinkel lives in. I guess those must be hotels so close to the shore. It attracts people even in the winter, it is so beautiful.

Terrific composition C, I love the sweeping curve of that bay and the radiating lines of the fence and buildings, almost like spokes in a wheel. The brown colour and texture of the sand is good too and the light's just right on the buildings. Great shot!

Take away the tall buildings and this image recalls the work of fine Dutch masters.
Super clarity and perspective.
