Hoi Johnny
Wat een heerlijke plaat weer,
de bewolkte lucht komt wel weer heel mooi uit!
Sterkte zit in de eerlijkheid
Goed gezien, de kade lijnen maken het een opmerkelijke foto.
Mooie inzending! Favoriet voor mij.

Hello JT...
this is a different frame for you! I like it... Love the looks of the water here... I am so happy you share your wonderful home with us...

Interesting about Vandana's shot! I would think they should have contacted her directly before they removed the shot to confirm not just jump to conclusions! But then again......

Hi John
Marvellous colour, with a superb blue sky, & excellengt sharpness & framing. I like the subtle reflections in the canal. Congratultions!
Hallo John,
Het is al echt voorjaar in Dordrecht!Restaurant
en een terras aan het water! Het ziet er aanlokkelijk uit.Je foto heeft mooie zachte tinten en met deze lijst komt dat goed naar voren.Ben benieuwd naar je volgende foto's!
Dank en groet, Frieda.

When a woman finds out...enz. what will she be?
Been there, done that, even bought a wooden garden bench here.
Hi John,
Old cities located at the big rivers are always very attractive and more so if you know how to capture them and if the weather is co-operating a bit.
Lovely work John,

Bonsoir mon ami John,
A small city bathed by water with houses with the architecture of the frontages typically of your country. One leaves a small channel to go obviously towards a more important inland waterway...
The angle of your POV is well seen, I like him. And of the spring colors, the light is still soft in this season.

Thanks

Never been to the Netherlands, but I hear it's a magnificent place. I hold it dear to my heart because of one of my favorite painters, Vincent Van Gogh, who was born in a town close to Breda (Groot-Zundert)...so apparently not far from this place which you kindly and beautifully photographed and shared with us. Excellent composition, perspective and presentation!
Best regards,

Another nice view on Dordrecht, John, though a bit tilted to the left (ccw). Good idea to include the left bit of the quays with the tree branches, to show dimension. And... beautiful colours as well.

Hi John,
I like the view and the angle from where you have taken this shot,
I like how you framed this beautiful shot,
nice note also,
TFS....
It would be a wonderful town to see, indeed John. I love the rich blue sky and the reflections on the water. The composition is very flattering to this wonderful landscape. Maybe my next adventure can be to the Netherlands so I can experience some of these wonderful places, myself. Beautiful.
Warm Regards

Hi John!
I've been living in Holland for a year, precisely in Delft. I often used to go to Rotterdam by train, so I passed by Dordrecht many times but I never stopped... Too Bad, it looks a beautiful city from your photo!
Nice pov and good expo, it shows the tipycal dutch light.
Dario
Dordrecht may be a nice place to visit in Holand! A nice shot, John!
Well, I have read your philosophic saying in the bottom... Oh boy! :-)))
I´d better shut up ! :-)))
Um abraço, a Brazilian hug,

Nice colour and detail John and well composed. An interesting frame but I feel some sort of perspective correction, especially the verticals would have enhanced the architecture even more. TFS,
David
Many thanks for your comment on ‘An Easter Offering…’

"Had an email from a sad *Vandana2923*... her wolf action photo has been deleted.
In general we are ONLY alowed to post photo's WE MADE OURSELVES !! What happend .. she did!! .. but her camera on the remote, but you HAVE to tell that in your photo!! She will repost tomorrow !"
A few things- John.
1.) I cannot believe that you'd encourage/endorse/approve of someone posting a photo that has been removed 2 times already.
2.) In the photo (which she now has posted as a WS) She had a camera in her hand, I do not know but it appeared like someone else took the photo.
3.) I didn't know of this incident until I saw this in the notes on your image here. I think mentioning a photo that has been removed is much like discussing disabled accounts. I have been lambasted for much less than this. Of course my photography sucks and I'm not in the ranks of the popularity of the "100 point per average photo". Do you believe that some people post "average" photos and get raving reviews for them? Hard to believe. Sorry for ranting on this one but I had to mention about your notes, I made it a comment. My apologies, perhaps I can return with a useful critique.
Scott
