A bike ride in the morning ± 1°Celsius
TE friends, here I am back after a period of illness, luckily no corona or serious problems.
I also had to do a lot of domestic tasks during my absence at TE.
I hope I can stay on my beloved site, but everyone sees that one little thing interrupts everything
Thank you to the members who messaged me and gave me support.
Sint-Kruis Netherlands, 10 km of my home
Development direction
After installation, St. Kruis will form an important link in the Zwin-Passageule-Braakman ecological connection. A continuous zone of nature reserves is created where many species can live
migrate and increase their habitat. In addition, this means for St. Kruis that a large
diversity of species in the area can occur due to the connection with other areas.
The nature target type for St. Kruis is clay forest landscape. The clay forest landscape is a varied
landscape of forests, thickets and grasslands with locally open water and reed beds. The
landscape structure is strongly related to the relief and the water management: on the low, wet
In places there is an alternation of wet roughage, reed land, open water and grasslands, on the higher dry areas
In parts, a mosaic of flower-rich grassland, dry brush and scrub is created. The
surface ratios strongly depend on the initial situation and the grazing pressure.
I hope you like it

Hi John,
The length of the canal is creating depth. You have captured well the action of the fisherman. The point of view is showing the details of the vegetation and of the trees. Have a nice day.

Hello John,
I am glad to see you recovered and back. This is a very nice view of fields and reeds at the time when winter is slowly turning into spring. The canal, or river, balances the view well, but of course the the small jetty and the man preparing his fishing equipment are the supreme focal points. As usual you handled the bright light well.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi John
Back to nature beauty.. what a tranquil wetland enriched by such wonderful deep colours and tones. That's a well chosen moment and he adds perspective and total strength of this compo which renders a visual appeal especially with its subtle lighting..
Best regards

Afternoon light with the fields around the creek and the lone fisherman made a nice ambiance for this picture.
Good evening,

Hallo John,
Welkom terug! Een mooi landschap aan het eind van de winter of het begin van de lente, net hoe je het bekijkt. Het licht was in ieder geval al helder en zorgt voor mooie natuurlijke kleuren.

Hi John,welcome back after some days, all is right as i can read and is a good news for all. A very nice scene of countryside in this very cold morning with the alone fisherman, natural view with still frozen parts in the shadow, top quality as usual. Have a nice evening and thanks,Luciano

Excellent sharp quality.
Lovely natural colours.

Hello John,
I had noticed that you weren't posting recently, and I wondered if you were o.k. I'm glad to read that you are recovering. The warm sunlight really brings out the golden colors in this scene, and the man in the foreground is a good focal point. I like that he's standing near the small, wooden platform. Take care!

Hello John,
Good to have you back! Nice view of the fisherman. All the more power to him, I would not want to fish even in the summer, let alone in the winter.
Regards,

Hi John,
Beautiful winter morning.
We can still see some frost in the shaded areas while the rest of the landscape has pleasant warm colors. The fisherman adds an interest and action in the foreground.
Excellent capture,

Hi John,
We can see that it's cold here with the frost on the ground. The atmosphere is calm and the warm light is excellent, producing long shadows. Great sharpness and colour.

Hallo John
The little wooden pier makes a great focal point and the fisherman adds scale and context. Good sharpness and warm cold colour contrasts. Tfs!

Hallo John,
Prachtige combinatie van de goudgele kleur van het riet en de egaal blauwe lucht die zich ook in het water weerspiegelt.
Het zal inderdaad een heel koude ochtend geweest zijn. We zien de vorst nog op het gras in de schaduw en op de kleine steiger.
Hopelijk is deze visser warm genoeg gekleed.
Mooie compositie, veel diepte en een perfect scherp beeld.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hello John,
I, too, have had to let TE take a back seat for a while.
This is a scene which is so relaxing to observe; how different from what we are observing on TV!
The side light is glorious, illuminating one side with a golden glow.
The fisherman is strongly positioned, surrounded by mud, whilst his shadow helps to give strength to his presence.
I like how the stream winds away into the distance and a strong vanishing point.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)
