For several reasons, recently I didn't have much time to go out for a photo shoot. For such occasions my 'shoebox' is a good alternative to provide you still with some images. When peeking through it, I thought that this one might be a suitable one, as it makes me already desire for a new spring (although we have to face a new winter first, lol).

Image was taken on the peninsula Walcheren, Zeeland, the Netherlands. Hope you'll like it. Thanks in advance for your comment.

Edit: Because of the many questions below, I'll give some additional information: this, near a farm situated, house was built about more than 100 years ago as a dwelling for farm servants and their families. Although it's very small, it still looks good on the outside, but the reality is that it no longer meets today's demands. Because this small house is situated near a beach as well, there were intentions to renew it and to provide it with the required comfort, so that one will be able to rent it to vacationers in the summer months. I do not know whether the renewal already has been done now.

Deze huisjes vind ik te gek, in Wassenaar hebben we er ook een paar waar ik zowiezo graag naar kijk. Vooral omdat ze niet gebouwd zijn als tegenwoordig, huizenblokken, maar gebouwd met oog voor schoonheid. Een mooie foto uit de lente, waar ik nu al zeer naar verlang :-)! Mooi werk! Michel

I don't know if I have any images this pretty in MY shoebox, Mr. C. It would have been posted by now. You make me want to hurry as fast as possible through winter, to get to spring. That house looks to nice to be abandoned. When can I move in? LOL.

Like all other friends I have to ask 'is that really abandoned?'. Beautiful place with the blooming tree. Very well taken photo.

That house sure doesn't look abandoned to me. If that was a servant's house, it sure was a nice one. I'd work for that boss! lol

If they fix it I'll rent it. It really looks good as it is. I guess the inside is bad. How lucky to have the beautiful tree so close.

Wat een contrast met de zielloze betonnen blokkendozen van vandaag.Misschien niet aangepast aan de behoeften van de moderne mens,maar het ademt wel sfeer en gezelligheid.Deze mooie foto doet me al dromen van de lente,Cornelius.

It sure is a pretty little thing in that setting. Makes for a wonderful image too with the pink blossoms framing the white house.

A picturesque spring setting, no matter what the standards are inside. lol Early pink blooms are a lovely addition. It would be golden in the hands of the right real estate broker, lol.

I'm happy to hear that they're fixing it up. And I thank you for the explanation that you added to your narrative because from the outside, this looks nicer than most of the homes in my neighborhood.

As always, it's apparent that you know your way around a camera. Wonderful clarity and detail. Everything looks just right.

One guesses the abandonment has something to do with the economic mayhem caused by the gamblers on Wall Street. Sigh. Such a lovely little home. The way you photographed it through the blossoms makes the place look enchanted.

Wow, what a lovely place. Wish it was mine. The pink blossomed tree stands out nicely & the lighting is perfect as well as the detail. Excellent capture, Cornelius & I still wish it was mine or I defintely would rent it. Thanks for the info too.
