This is the second one of this series, taken on March 7th, 2020.

Depicted is a piece of the 'Grote Markt' (Great Market Square) of Antwerp, a town square situated in the heart of the old city quarter. It is filled with an extravagant city hall (partly seen on the left, and in scaffolding because of its refurbishment now), numerous elaborate 16th century guildhalls as seen on this picture, many restaurants, and cafés.

An impressive row of buildings with no gaps between them. Wonderful photo Cornelius.

I always liked Antwerp but I hated the long procedure of berthing, the locks and (always) departure at something like 0200 hrs.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

I had to enlarge to look at the golden statues on top of the buildings SEA. I bet they really shine. I'm also amazed by all the windows.
A window cleaner could spend a lifetime there keeping them clean.
Excellent composition.

At first sight, they looked to me like lego buildings. Excellent capture, Cornelius.
