Depicted is the traditional windmill "De vijf gebroeders" (the five brothers) situated in the village of Heinkenszand on the peninsula South-Beveland, Zeeland, The Netherlands.

When the mill was built (1851) it's name was "De drie gebroeders" (the three brothers). Family expansion was not the reason for the name change, but the sale of the mill to a family with five brothers.

A very beautiful and peaceful looking scene captured expertly as usual Cornelius. The colours, composition, sky everything superb.

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

So many wonderful elements in this gorgeous shot, Mr. C. Everything is in perfect focus. The windmill is a real beauty and the sky is a nice mixture of fluffy clouds and wispy clouds. I bet the horses love being in their surroundings.

Wat een leuke herinnering voor Lia, die daar vaak in vakanties vertoefde
Haar moeder is hier in Heinkenszand geboren en is later naar Groningen gegaan met achterlating van veel familie (Zuidweg),
maar wat nu natuurlijk behoorlijk is geslonken.
Bedankt voor je prachtig mooie foto, en natuurlijk de groeten van Lia !
