'Painted' Evening Stroll

Taken in the sand dunes north of the town of Flushing (to be seen in the distance), Zeeland, The Netherlands. The lighting conditions were difficult, but I have tried to catch the last sunrays of the setting sun, illuminating a part of Flushing's seafront and some buildings of its skyline. I've permitted myself to give this image slightly the touch of a watercolour painting, please notice therefore the inverted comma's in the title.

Hope you'll like this image and its intriguing mood. Thank you in advance for your comment.

I thought it looked like a watercolor painting before I read your narrative Sea. A different touch for you. The breadth and scope of it does create a mood that is intriguing. Good post.
Good health to you and yours.

The painting effect looks very good Cornelius. This is a real beauty! I like that bit of sunshine there on the beach and the overall composition. Great job my friend!

Cornelius - A beautiful scene, especially with the touch of the digital paintbrush. The low angled light on the dunes, and the backlit clouds are especially nice. Kudos! Thad

This is gorgeous. I was wondering before reading the narrative, if you used a treatment. Very nice work, Cornelius. The scene is fantastic. I especially like that cloudy sky.

I think that the tiny bit of watercolor is just the right touch. Great colors and such a beatiful scene. Faved again.

Dit plaatje herkende ik meteen in de VB :o)


Perhapse a 'lil bit to much of the dunes as foreground...in my humble opinion ofcourse...Some cropping perhaps, just a thought here!

Looks good, like you said a 'painting'!
