Picture Bruges 2018

Summer in Bruges
Bruges is the capital and largest city of the Belgian province of West Flanders and of the arrondissement of Bruges. The city, located in the northwest of the country, is also the capital of the electoral canton of Bruges, has four cantons of its own and is the seat of the diocese of Bruges and of a court of assizes.
The historic centre is listed as a medieval city on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It is ovoid and about 430 hectares. The entire municipality has a surface area of over 13.840 hectares. The city has more than 118,000 inhabitants; about 20,000 of them live in the inner city. The inhabitants of Bruges are called Bruggelingen.
The economic significance of Bruges stems mainly from its sea port, Zeebrugge. The city is also a world-famous tourist attraction.

I hope you can enjoy.

Hello John,
A perfect summer's day for a ride on the canals in the delightful city of Brugges. Well composed and benefiting from excellent light management. Pleasant natural tones and some delicious reflections. Sharpness is impeccable.

ChrisJ (158512) 2018-07-07 2:16

Hello John,

Wonderful warm vs cold colour contrasts between the red and blue, with superb sharpness and tremendous reflections. Good timing to catch the tour boat gliding by. Tfs!

holmertz (91960) 2018-07-07 3:09

Hello John,
An ideal picture from Bruges showing water, a boat full of tourists, beautiful buildings and trees. The almost black water is brightened by the reflection of the white building, The photo is well framed and balanced and it is technically faultless.
Kind regards,
Gert

pierrefonds (102444) 2018-07-07 4:44

Hi John,

You have captured well the movement of the tour biat on the canal. The reflections on the water are assets to the composition. The point of view is showing the details of the houses and of the trees. The colours are very good. Have a nice day.

Hallo John,
Een prachtige zomerdag en een heel aantrekkelijk stadsgezicht dat mooi verdeeld is tussen het witte huis en de grote boom. De spiegelingen zijn ook schitterend en het bootje is de kers op de taart.

Hello John,

If people have never been to Bruges, I'm sure your photographs will have convinced them that the city is worth a visit! This looks idyllic!
The river looks like a cool retreat, shaded but still full of interesting colours and reflections; whilst the buildings are brightly illuminated and the focal boat, with its plethora of passengers, animates the whole scene.
I like how you have used the trees and the walls in this fine composition.

Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

danos (110395) 2018-07-08 9:30

Hello John,
lovely shot with the passing by boat with its reflections make the image even more attractive.The brilliant light of the day enhance the details of the building on the backdrop as the whole environment.

Regards,Danos

PaulVDV (53888) 2018-07-08 10:31

Hallo John,
Ik denk dat ik de plaats herken waar je deze foto nam.
Een plaats waar je in meerdere richtingen mooie foto's kan nemen.
Het wit van de gevel wordt mooi weerspiegeld in het donkere water. De golven doorbreken het weerspiegeld beeld over de hele lengte.
Onder de grote bomen zoeken heel wat mensen voor verkoeling.
Het zal wel heel warm geweest zijn.
Mooie originele foto van Brugge!
Vele groeten, Paul

ikeharel (105226) 2018-07-09 7:24

The famous tourists boats cruising the canal system of Bruges, John.
A shining summer day with good shadows cast from the big trees around the banks.
Depth, clarity and colors all marvelously rendered.
Good afternoon,
Ike

Hi John.
A beautiful view of the canal, with the boat of tourists heading towards the arch of the bridge, beautiful those big trees, the house with its white facade is a good element in the image.
Magnificent color, which gives great strength to the image.
Very good brightness and perfect sharpness.
Well done. I like very much.
You have a good day.
Very best regards.
Luis.

jean113 (21431) 2018-07-15 10:54

Hello John, a pleasing scene where the reflection steals the show for me! The boat full of people animates the view. The trees either side of the frame keep our eyes focused on the centre of the shot.
Lovely!
Regards Jean.
