[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Today was difficult to select a photo because I had a couple of choices which all were fitting to the theme. Finally I picked-up this one, taken in Kinderdijk last year. When we visited the site it was Easter Day and I was fascinated by this peaceful place because we were almost alone there, walking around the windmills along the canals.

Kinderdijk is a village in the Netherlands, in the province South Holland, about 15 km to Rotterdam. The windmills of Kinderdijk are one of the best known Dutch tourist sites and it was placed on the list of UNESCO list of World Heritage Sites in 1997.

More about this marvelous place you can find here.

And a job well done! Time for you to buy an SLR *_*
Compliments and even so on the good photoshop technique!

Excellent compo, Sorina; the windmills are showing a nice perspective. I love the deep blue hues throughout the shot. Maybe a wider aspect would enhance the sense of space here... just cropping off a bit of the top and of the bottom would do the trick.
Anyway, TFS

I like the effective perspective and the beautiful lights, clarity and sharpness is excellent.
Best wishes,
Achim

frumoasa.
excelente claritatea, incadrarea si prezentarea.

numai bine.

Hi Sorina,
A cristal clear shot of the mills at Kinderdijk (actual name of the village, indeed near Rottersdam but not belonging to it) Nicely sharp and the water appears so clear excellent brightnesas and colours. A nice Holland promotion!

I am really glad you decided on this one, Sorina. The beautiful blues, and the wonderful angle across the images, make this just superb. I love how you make us feel that this line of repeating windmills goes on forever. Well done and perfect for the theme.
Warm Regards
Wanda

Cred ca din cate posting-uri am vazut, adaugate temei, fotografia ta imi place cel mai mult! Foarte buna compozitia, naturaletea culorilor, dof si luminozitatea!
Salut calduros din mai putin caldurosul Michigan! :)

Hi Sorina,
Excellent photo for the theme.
This place is very beautiful. I like it.
Excellent POV with these three windmills.
Great shot.
Congratulations.

Simply beautiful, so essential and so to the point.
Windmills are always a great subject to photograph and three in a row makes a delicious composition, a real poetry.
