Dedicated to *justeline :iconjusteline:. Because without her great photography which inspired me, I wouldn't have made this photograph. :hug:

It's been a while since I had the time and the conditions
were right to do some landscape photography. This day the weather wasn't perfect either, but it was OK. Because I didn't have to go to work today, and I haven't made real photographs (except for family shots, PARTY shots hehehehe, and shots of plays) in weeks, I decided to go on my bike and find a nice location.

Location
This location is between Zoutelande and Westkapelle. I had to cycle 75 mins to get there, and it wasn't really worth it. The location wasn't as great as it was in my memories. I haven't been there for two years I guess.
So I can't tell you any juicy facts about the location except that when I went a few meters to the left I got a text-message: "Welcome in Belgium - T-mobile". It could be that I got this message because this is the most western part of the Netherlands. Not that that is so exciting, except if you are keen on receiving text messages.

Photo
The light wasn't that wonderful, for the whole day, but just before 18.00 the light started to get nice. The tide was low, so the beach was rather empty and it was hard to find some good foreground. This little reservoir of water got my eye, and I really like the sand lines. I also have shot with more attention to the sand lines but the impact of the light is less because the reflective water is further ahead in the frame.
My polarizer was a very welcome tool this day. Without my pola the shot wouldn't be this warm, this gold.

Toch wel mooi gelukt, de paarsige lucht heeft iets rustigs over zich :thumbsup:

Whoa Martijn, amazing composition bro! You made excellent use of the sand lines, they lead you right to the heart of the photo. Great reflection, nice, warm tones too! :thumbsup:

Very nice composition and i like the concentration of the foreground. The small water path that gradually leads into the mass of water. Great shot :)
:iconcairo485:
Great shot, very peaceful. Well done

It's Gods creativity and my camera :)
:iconthedevilwearsskirts:
brilliant shot, lovely composition

just wondering how much your polariser cost. because cheap ones are incredibly hard to find that fit the filter thread

Echt genaaid dat je zo lang moest fietsen man! En dan ook nog voor een Belg aan wordt gezien! XD

Op zich is het een leuke foto met mooie kleuren, mooi gepost-processed (;p) maar er ontbreekt toch wel iets .. denk ik. Volgende keer iets minder enthousiast over een plek waar je al 2 jaar niet was geweest? :P

Thank you very much sis ;),
Actually, when I saw this photo on the LCD of my camera I had to think of your photograph 'under the red'. Though it are two totally different photographs the subject is a sort of the same: Both include a small body of water as the subject in stead of the sea.

And thanks a lot for the :+fav: of course :hug:
