Photographer’s Note
Dear friends,
best wishes to all of you. May 2009 be filled with joy, happiness and a good health for you, your family and friends.
I finish this year (a slow one for me) with a picture from my region with my favourite mill on it. I hope you enjoy it and I hope we can enjoy each others work in the years to come.
What you see here is the Schellemolen. It was built in 1867 on the place where previously stood a wooden standardmill and remained operational until 1963. In 1971, it was then bought by the province West-Vlaanderen and restored in 1975-77. Since this restoration, the wings swiftly turn in the wind again during the summer months. In 1975, the mill became a protected monument.
The canal in front is the "Damse Vaart" or canal Bruges - Sluis. It was Napoleon who ordered the realization of this canal which was started in 1810 but was never completely finished. It was dug out by Spanish prisoners of war.

Dag Hendrik,
Sfeervolle foto met mooi winterblauw. Het lage perspectief doet het huis een beetje wegzinken, maar zorgt wel voor die mooie riethalmen. Geslaagd werk, vind ik.

Hendrik,
This is a fine postcard shot! The frost on the reeds give the shot a serene feel. The reflection is fine giving the shot good balance and depth. The lighting and colors are great with nice sharpness and detail.
TFS,
Asa

Dag Hendrik,
Ik had hem in de nieuwsbrief gezien, ik dacht er aan, we zullen deze wel zien op TE.
Het is een prachtige winter foto, twee uur geleden was ik in Hoeke, maar nog geen schaatsers.
De Schelle molen is de laatste dagen al enkele keren op TE geweest.
Het blijft een idylische plaatst. Mooi werk Hendrik.
Bedankt.
Prettige avond en gezond weerop morgen!
John.

Mooi, sfeervolle winterse plaat!
Mijn favorieten zijn er op terug te vinden: rood, wit en blauw in een landschap.
Geweldig!
Gelukkig nieuwjaar!

Yes,but the World and life has its beauties,I know.
