Although I'm retired for a 'couple' of years now, think I've still some sea water in my veins, because the maritime environment draws to me like iron to a magnet. When I see a scene as the depicted one, my heart beats a little bit faster, ☺ .

Image was taken on the northern border of the Western Scheldt river, Zeeland, The Netherlands. The Western Scheldt River is the entrance to Belgian main ports like Antwerp and Ghent and shows day and night lots of maritime traffic.

A lovely sky and red glow on the water. I also feel a little nostalgia sometimes. Things are quite different now what it was in our days. Check out this sleek Dutch pilot vessel and warch it on full screen.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.

Don't we all have seawater in our veins if you live near the sea, Mr. C? I know I have...lol...

Beautiful area for a sunset. I can feel the warmth of it because of the colors.

I've never been at sea Mr. C. but even I feel my heart beat a little faster with the beauty of this scene and your excellent capture of this golden moment.

Such a beautiful image...and I can sense the "salt water" in your veins from so many of your photos! I have to experience it vicariously, as I have never lived near the ocean.

I grew up by the sea and moved away for many years and missed it. Fine photo.

Absolutely beautiful sunset and capture, like that big cargo ship going out.
