Zeeland Polder In The Fall

I captured this image on a lower tract of land which was sea until 1961. It's a polder now. I've explained it before, but for the people who've missed this explanation I'll repeat it again: 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 another (older) polder behind the dike at the background of this image as well. This image was captured on the western part of the peninsula South-Beveland, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

Hope you'll like this image. Thank you in advance for your comment.

Volgens mij zie ik zelfs nog 2 reigers zitten! Een foto vol sfeer passende bij dit koude maar gezellige jaargetijde. Mooi werk Cornelius! Mich

It is known that there is an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the product of a deranged imagination.

Cornelius - A very pretty, gentle scene. The sunlight creates a glow of the brown grass at water's edge, creating a nice curved line that ties the photo together. Any geists in the polder? lol Thad

The locals in our area could take a page from that book. Beautifully composed, enjoy the bare trees and wispy skies. Thank you for sharing both the polder and information.
