More than one year ago I've posted the image Backyard Boats. This time an image at the frontside of these 18th Century houses in Middelburg, Zeeland, The Netherlands, and yes you're right, at the front side of the houses there are boats as well. Think it may be clear to you now why they've called our Dutch province 'Zeeland' (Sealand), lol. Hope you'll enjoy this image as well.

Very colorful and nice. The boats' reflections in the water and the well painted house fronts make this a very good capture.

Either way, they are both beautiful pictures. I really like the reflections and the colors, Cornelius. Great job.

L'architecture de ces maisons ainsi que les teintes qui les habillent font bon ménage avec ces bateaux à voile..couleurs vives et claires..what a great shot

Excellent photo Cornelius. You're so consistent with top quality photos. Never a lunker in your posts. Love the reflections and framing as usual. Have a good day.

Looks like one boat for each house, at least. A wonderful view. The colors are bright and I so love the look of those three and four story buildings.

Another great postcard shot. Thank goodness they aren't postcards. The wife would send me to the poorhouse.

Excellent shot Cornelius - I found myself staring at it and talking in all the surroundings as well as the boats and the reflections!

The reflection in calm canal water, the civilized vista of boats and handsome homes and the gorgeous light make this one very special indeed.
