this must be Holland

my first view of a real Dutch windmill! After visiting my Uncle's war grave in Rotterdam we are having a couple of nights in Amsterdam before going on to Bruges in Belgium

A very appropriate title. Those Dutch windmills are a marvel to see. Splendid capture.

[Babs]

Fabulous. I used to have a fantasy of wanting to live in a windmill when I was a child. Not sure my knees could cope with the stairs these days though, ha ha.

[Nina Ganci]

terrific capture Chris, great layers of colours, framing with fence and threatening clouds over head

[Anna]

Beautiful photo! Terrific sky background.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

How exciting! I'd love to be able to say I'd seen a real Dutch windmill. Thanks for sharing your view of one. (I like the inclusion of the old wooden fence in the foreground.)
