On the late afternoon of October 23th, 2009, the already setting sun was still able to peep trough the mist and could even resolve it partly, causing a, to me, special view.

Hope you'll agree with me and will enjoy this image. Thank you in advance for your comment.

Image shows the Western Scheldt river, where it's flowing into the North Sea, Zeeland, The Netherlands. The seagoing vessel is on its way to the port of Antwerp, Belgium.

PS: Have/had the flu. I'm still coughing and sweathening. Go back into bed after uploading this image. Will resume commenting later. Thanks to Owd Bob for his good advice!

The ship looks great in silhouette Cornelius. The sunlight reflecting from the water looks almost like bright moonlight. Beautiful!
P.S. Get well soon!

Wonderschoon werk Cornelius! De lichtval op het water maakt de foto naar mijn mening! Hij staat nu op mijn desktop en is erg rustgevend! Vakwerk van een oud Zeeman! Mich

I like the scale the person and dog on the beach provide. It would not be the same without them. Beautiful shot. Take care.

Yes...take care of yourself. OB must have recommended a nice hot glass of English Ale. LOL. Excellent moody image, with the silhouettes of the man and his dog, and the ship. Beautiful lighting. Well done, Mr. C. Get Well Soon.

All I can say is , oh wow! How wonderful to have been there at the right moment. I love the glisten on the water and I also like the silhouettes of the man and dog and the ship. A really fine shot, Cornelius and I am so glad to see that you are feeling better.

Absolutely agree with you, a special view. The ship is an excellent focal point on this glittery water scape. Lovely tones and composition. Saved.

Cornelius - A wonderful capture of the lighting, with the ship as a silhouette. The lines of the shore and the ship create an excellent composition. Well done! I hope you are well very soon. Thad

You are really getting good with the use of silhouettes Sea. It really adds a dramatic flair to this wonder post. I especially like the man and the dog.
Good health to you and yours.
