Depicted is a part of the eastern outskirts of the city of Rotterdam, The Netherlands, captured while sailing on the 'Nieuwe Maas' river. As you can see: a mix of traditional and new architecture, as Rotterdam was heavy bombed in WWII and only a few old buildings have sustained this attack.
Hope you'll like this image. Thank you in advance for your comment.
PS: the depicted 'old' building (somewhat right of the centre of this image) is the 'Salmon House'. Its origin began in 1863. In 1875 it became a covered market for the sale of salmon, shad, ide, whitefish, twaite and sturgeon. In January 1896 a pavilion above the market was constructed. In 1955 it was reconstructed and today the reconstructed 'Salmon House' is a brasserie.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography.

A beautiful image showing the interesting building along the bank. The small speed boat adds to the beauty of the scene. Very nice, Cornelius.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?
Cornelius - This series is a wonderful tour of Rotterdam. The blend of new and old gives the city its unique appearance. With the photos taken from waterways, it emphasizes the importance of the water to the well being of the city. Including a water taxi in this scene reinforces that. Well done! Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine
So you were in a boat capturing a boat whizzing by? A unique diverse cityscape along the river. Interesting informative narrative too. Thank you for sharing it.

I like this one. Well balanced, with great curves and lines and a mixture of texture that really makes it stand out. Well done.

For in and out, above, about, below,
'Tis nothing but a Magic Shadow-show,
Play'd in a Box whose Candle is the Sun,
Round which we Phantom Figures come and go.
From Edward Fitzgerald's Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam
The title could easily have been "three of a kind"..!!
Great perspective and ofcourse there's a boat in here, you can't resist, now can you..lol...
Just kidding a bit about the boat, Cornelius.

Lovely image and those are really cool looking buildings. The old building sure sounds like a wonderful place to go shopping for fresh fish.

The taxi reminds me how much the waterways are a part of everyone's lives in your part of the world Sea.
A great view of the Cityscape.
Good health to you and yours.

Comment unto one another as you would have them comment unto you. If you like comments, you need to comment some yourself.
Beautifully balanced and composed image Cornelius and the architecture looks good with the water and boat as contrast.
