this capture shows a restored farmstead on the peninsula South-Beveland, Zeeland, The Netherlands. Its name is 'Veldzicht' (Field View) and it was built in 1700.
The barn got a new roof. Its color caught my attention, the more because of the surrounding colors of a natural frame (blooming trees) as well. A colorful peek a boo.

Wonderful capture, so neat, sharp. And I don't mind this little house, either. LOL

The roof is very sharp and steep..I believe this would be to keep the inside cooler and the snow to clear quicker!...
great point of view for this one!

Winter is on my head, but eternal spring is in my heart. (Victor Hugo)
Think of all the history this building has withstood over the past 318 years! And it is looking so much better at its age than I at mine. ;)

Planning and designing a Japanese-styled workshop to then build in my backyard, I'm picturing the interior structure of that triple-doored section. The length of those dormers is unlike anything I've seen before. Do you have an idea of the purpose of the building? Is that long roof with the reverse-crenellation for a particular purpose or simply a style found in Holland? Veeeeerry neat. S&F.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.
What an interesting bit of architecture. Don't think I have ever seen anything like it before. Intriguing entry! Thanks.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
A picturesque scene very well photographed as usual Cornelius. Very colourful and lovely.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
I have not seen anything like this before either Mr. C. - very interesting and what history must be attached to it.

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. Albert Camus
This is so different from anything I have ever seen, besides being different, it is a beautiful image. tigs=^..^=

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Referring to 'Nik''s comment above: the design of the barn was mainly determined by the size of the doors. Ancient Dutch farms had these large, high, double doors to drive a horse and high-loaded wagon through the doors, in order to load and unload the harvest in the workspace of a barn. The workspace was also used to thresh the grain. The part where this happens is called the threshing floor.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Outstanding find and capture, I also love the colouring of the roof showing through the gorgeous tree with the new growth
