This image shows you a part of a Dutch polder. A polder is a low-lying (mostly below sea-level) tract of land, reclaimed from the sea, and enclosed by embankments known as dikes. You can see the dike on the right hand side while the tract of land is on the left side of this image. This image is captured at the peninsula walcheren, Zeeland, The Netherlands. Hope you'll enjoy this image. Thank you in advance for any comment.

Very good perspective Cornelius - I like the way the dike on the right and the line of the river appear as a large arrow - it gives the image some dynamics as well as being a peaceful scene!

Great scene C and I too like how the dike and waterway leads the eyes on a peaceful journey. Colors are so relaxing.

Good health to you and yours.

I like this scene very much, Cornelius because of that stream, the trees and that sky. So Polder goes right into my folder.

I like the way the wind is blowing the trees and shaping their branches.

Uitstekend plaatje Cornelius.Hou van de door westenwind geteisterde bomen die een zekere dynamiek geven aan de foto.

One of your best yet! Thank you for the description. The Dutch always have had an elegant yet practical fight with the sea.
