BRESKENS: THE NETHERLANDS
One month ago, my bike trip came along this wonderful marina of Breskens.
HISTORY:
The same note of previous
The Marina was developed in the beginning of the 1950’s, short after WW II
The village of Breskens was traditionally known to be a fishing village. By the start of the 1950’s, the number of recreational yachts at the fishing pier increased to approximately six or seven. Thanks to contributions of the local catering industry, complemented with a generous donation of the Bruxelles Royal Yachting Club and the help of all local sailers, our first Marina became a reality.
TODAY:
The marina of Breskens offers 580 permanent berths and 100 places for passers-by at the mouth of the Western Scheldt. Located on the Zeeland Flemish coast and on the border with Flanders, it is an ideal base for boat trips to and from France, the Flemish inland and the Dutch Delta area.
A popular port for both motor yachts and sailors.
I hope you like it

Hallo John,
Een mooi gezicht op de jachthaven in een helder en aantrekkelijk zonlicht. Het woud van witte masten steekt mooi af tegen de blauwe lucht en de gebouwen aan de andere kanten zijn er nog mooi doorheen te zien.

Hallo John,
Je vond een goed ietwat hoger gelegen punt om vandaar een goed overzicht van de jachthaven te presenteren.
De loopbrug met de personen die naar beneden gaan of naar boven komen, vormt een mooie introductie tot het hoofdonderwerp.
Mooi licht, schitterende kleuren, perfecte scherpte.
Leuke schaduwen op de voorgrond en natuurlijk een prachtig zicht met de zee van masten.
Prettige zondag, Paul

Hi John,
beautiful scene from the marina. Plenty of boats neatly arranged next to each other. The day was lovely so the white shapes of yachts are well set against the blue background.
Nice perspective from a pier and from above.
Very well done,
M

Hallo John, that footbridge leads to Breskens marina. Many sailing boats used for leisure navigation are moored in that place. The repetition of the masts creates a pleasant visual effect. Nice reflections on the water. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards

Hello John,
We see the marina from a nicely elevated angle where the gangway leads us down to the boats. The persons in the foreground connect us with the jetties and the man in the red shirt is a strong eye-catcher. The weather seems to have been perfect for a day at sea and brought you fine colours.
Best regards,
Gert

Hello John, the gangway is the perfect way to lead us into the scene, and especially as the man wears red!
It's a very neat and tidy harbour.
The light was lovely for you, providing some nice reflections.
Kind regards, Jean.

I liked the chaos of sail boats with their collection of poles, but what I liked more was the people in the corner, breaking the monotony. perfect image.

Hi John,
The man with the red sweater is an eye-catcher. The masts of the sialboats have a graphical effect. The point of view is showing the details of the sailboats. Have a nice day.

Hi John,
This photo gives us a good view of the marina and its many boats. The mostly white boats and their white masts stand out against the blue sky and water. Sharp and well exposed.

Hello John,
I really wished for a day, like this, when I was photographing in Norfolk!
You had wonderful light, highlighting the colours, creating useful shadows and lovely reflections in the water!
I like your chosen viewpoint, where we follow the couple down the gangplank, a perfect introduction to the marina, supplying both animation and a sense of perspective.
It's a bright and busy scene, the boats filling the frame; not a wasted space to be found!
Have a good Sunday,
Bev :-)

Bonjour, cher ami John,
Ce port est de toute beauté et la mise en image fort bien pensée avec cette passerelle, qui plonge vers les catway.
La forêt de mâts forme un joli entrelacs.
Amitiés.

Hello John,
Looking at all the expensive yachts and boats moored in this Marina....a bit like a small version of Monte Carlo in Nederland ( for the rich and famous ).
I've never been to this part of Zeeland but well in Middelburg to the harbour of Vlissingen long time ago.
This photo will be benefited for people enjoy sailing - all shapes and sizes to be seen here in great sharpness and details.
Thanks for sharing.

Hi John.
A very complete port of small yachts and motorboats, the masts seem like a forest, the people going down and up the walkway gives a vital touch to the image.
The color and light management are magnificent, highlighting the beauty and sharpness of the image.
Very well done. I like it
Have a good day.
Warm Regards.
Luis.
