[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Kinderdijk´s windmills are one of the most popular tourist attractions of the Netherlands. Situated in a polder landscape close to Rotterdam a system of 19 windmills was build around 1740 to drain the polder. Today they are on the world heritage list of the Unesco.

This could be a postcard. It's colors are very burlesque... In my opinion... I love it!

Wonderful!
It's very beutiful how the water mirror the sky and make the ilusion of a little sky river.

Congratulation! Very beutiful!

Great shot with strong tone and color. Very nice calm sky caught in this photo. TFS

Hello Hermann
I love many of your works and this one too!
Great angle and perspective,perfect sharpness.
Best regards, Francesco

Hallo Hermann,
das ist das perfekt Holland-Foto.
Ich liebe diese Windmühlen, und Du hast gleich 3 Stück auf 1 Foto, genial. Das Wasser ist wie ein Spiegel, einsame spitze, vielen Dank

awesome sharpness, and there's almost no difference between sky and water. Super!

Daarbij die mooie molens... Helder,wijds zicht ..

Hoi Hermann,

Ik vind dit nog steeds een der mooiste kinderdijkfoto's die ik ooit heb gezien (de foto bij de man in de roeiboot moet je ook plaatsen: die is zo mooi). Er gaat zo veel rust vanuit. Ja het gaat mij goed. Ik heb alleen wat weinig tijd voor het nemen van foto's op dit moment: druk, druk, druk.
Alvast een gelukkig nieuw jaar,

Paul

Hi Hermann

Wonderful use of repetiton of the windmills, with superb sharpness & graphism. I like the strong diagonal axis. The man adds scale & context. Good work!

Your horizon line is not straight but this could easily be corrected through a rotation in Photoshop. I know these windmills and this is a good composition.

mooi met de man, het geeft een goeie impressie van proportie, bah, mijn nederlands gaat er ook niet op vooruit!! Thanx, M, (*_*)

Dit is een prachtige opname.
Erg goed uitgevoerd.
