I went back to 'Niehove' a small village in the north of The Netherlands, to make this B & W shot for the current contest


The church in centre of the village

An artificial dwelling hill (known as Terp, Wierde,) is a mound, created to provide safe ground during high tide and river floods. These hills occur in the coastal parts of the Netherlands (in the provinces of Zeeland, Friesland and Groningen), in southern part of Denmark and in Germany where, before dikes were made, tides interfered with daily life

A wonderful b&w with great tones. The composition is very good with the road to lead into the village. Good luck in the contest!

It really has an intimate feel to it John. The b/w helps with that plus it makes it feel nostalgic. Wonderful work.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

A great country scene. The country road leads the eyes to the center of town.

The reason why the sunsets 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
