Captured this lighthouse on March 21th, 2009 near the village of Westkapelle, on the west point of the peninisula Walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands. Just half a mile backwards of this spot the sand dunes and the sea dike are shade off into one another. Recently the sea dike was partly renewed (made even higher) to give us a better protection against the sea as the land behind the sea dike is far below sea level. I was told that the light house once was on top of the old dike, so it gives a good impression of the size of the dike now.

It's a simple image, hope you like it anyhow. Thank you in advance for your comment.

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

I don't know about simple. I think it is simply beautiful. Being a fan of lighthouses, I have faved and saved and put it on the desk top. Fantastic capture, Cornelius.

Good shot C. Nothing to interfere with the beauty of the lighthouse. It looks good enough to stand on its own.
Very nice.
Good health to you and yours.

OFT was here

I like how this red and white lighthouse stands tall and alone on this barren land with not a tree in sight, I liked where you placed the lighthouse in this photo
Cornelius just slightly off center...impressive!
