This little ancient shipyard in the tiny town of Arnemuiden, Zeeland, The Netherlands is the home base for a foundation runned by volunteers in onder to refurbish and or repair ancient Dutch wooden fishing boats. This foundation has the name: 'Stichting Behoud Hoogaars' (SBH). I took this image on the yearly celebration that the 'SBH' became the official rights to run this ancient shipyard. This image may give you an impression of that event.
Hope you'll like it. Thanks in advance for your comment.
PS: the black boat (in the middle of this image) was built on this shipyard in in 1878!

A fine capture showing the old shipyard and these unusual boats. For me it is quite interesting to see their construction.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
This is wonderful image that only you could bring us Sea. The windmill in the background and these beautiful vessels make this so uniquely yours.

Looks like a lot of flag hoisting went on here, SEA.
I suppose they might have hoisted a few ales as well.
Well composed as usual.
I like how the Windmill anchors the scene.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Magnificent display of these amazing boats, they really take great pride in the boats. Gorgeous capture and would love to see this in person

This is great Mr. C. Got a bunch of things to behold: a windmill, sailing boats, a shipyard, a harbor, and a great sky. Now if I had a Sun-Drop ( a cold beverage) and a candy bar I'd be all set.

ALWAYS VIEW FULL SCREEN...SO MUCH MORE BEAUTY!
This one took awhile to load up Mr. C. but what a beautiful picture, well worth the wait. Crystal clear, and sharp, and like it was said the windmill makes this yours! Tigs♥ =^..^=

I ALWAYS VIEW YOUR IMAGES FULL SIZE.
The essence of Holland, dearest agent. Trading, shipping and windmills.
All that presented by a great artist.
Thanks, dear SEAS.

Cornelius - How great the the tradition and history is being preserved by the SBH. As well, that you have preserved such an image of their work in this masterful photo. Thad

If I could tell the story in words, I wouldn't need to lug around a camera. ~Lewis Hine The Earth without art is just 'eh'.
C as always light composition and suject matter all good the narrative makes for a nice picture story.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
