I wish every visitor a very nice Pentecost weekend.
These picture has been taken early in the morning along the canal a place with a great history but also during WAR II a battle between Belgian and German soldiers.
Beside these place find you the old building now a good restaurant with a small port for small boats.
A lot visitors make a trip with the bike here in these lovely area.
History:
Far in the past, there was even a castle in Raverschoot. From this fortress, there are no leftovers to be found. She was burned to the ground and destroyed in revenge for the residents, the Erembalders. In the years before the famine, they formed a new power group within the county, they were even appointed Viscounts of Bruges, while she's a slutty sex heard. They were not of noble birth, but their power and wealth they closed or marriages with noble families and eventually had great control over the chancellery of Bruges and the Counts domains. But since they were not nobility, led at that time for an imbalance between nobility, church and the cities. Charles the Good, realized that if they are nationals serving would be, there are many misunderstandings would disappear. They refused, were eager for revenge and in their fury they would on March 2, 1127 Charles the Good have slain in Bruges. On 7 March, the power of the Erembalders broken, the leaders of the family were lynched and their possessions were divided among the barons of the House of Alsace, who then got the control over the county.

Bonjour John
La brume matinale donne un air mystérieux au paysage. L'image est profonde et le bâteau très net ajoute une note de couleur.
Merci pour le partage et bonne journée.

Hello John,
A very interesting note you have given us about this interesting place with lots of history and a very fine early morning photograph too!
I love the peacefulness of this place as the mist still clings to the face of the water. The composition is excellent with the edge of the canal leading the eye from bottom left, past the boat and into the distance. Beautiful reflections of the trees on the water and lovely soft and subtle colours.
Perfect exposure, fine colours and stunning sharpness.
Beautiful!
Kind Regards,
John.

Ciao John,
la foschia del mattino in corrispondenza del canale rende molto suggestiva l'immagine.
Sembra un posto tranquillo, silenzioso dove trovare un po' di relax e poi mangiare qualche cosa di buono nel ristorante vicino e per concludere una passeggiata.
Buon w.e.

Another masterpiece from your "workshop" John. I like this hazy morning mood photo. You have captured here few very interesting elements; the channel leading through the frame lost in haze; - the excellent reflections in the water also disapearing in the haze; - the well placed trees along the channel on the left side; - and the very important element (IMO the most important) the boat in the FG. Excellent work IMO.

Dag John,
Er heerst hier een totaal andere sfeer dan op je vorige foto maar ik vind deze ook heel mooi. De foto werd in april genomen maar het lijkt toch herfst ! De mist is duidelijk aanwezig en zorgt voor een rustig gevoel dat goed in beeld te vangen is. Het stilliggende bootje als vertrekpunt leidt ons het beeld in terwijl de zachte mist het kanaal en de weglopende bomen laat vervagen in het verre niets. De spiegelingen van de bomen in het kalme water werken hier fraai mee. Dit is hier het bewijs dat de mist ook wel mooie plaatjes kan opleveren.
Groetjes,
Christian

Hi John
This is another quality shot, I can feel the coolness and tranquility of this canal scene. It looks like a very acomplished dreamy image with the diffused light. The composition is spot on with lonely red boat and hints of background revealed through the mist and reflections. It makes the stillness almost a timeless but really love the way you have brought it all together. Nice piece of work, atmospheric and beautiful dreamy shot, impressionistic landscape and mood. Really good work, it is different and full of meaning. Well done
Warm regards

Good Morning John,
Canals and rivers take on a mysterious character when they are shrouded with mist. Although the f/g is realively clear, with details that we can recognise, the distance advances to infinity; our imaginations can take over!
Your shot is very well composed, the boat strongly positioned and with converging lines that lead to a strong disappearing point.
The trees, and their reflections, help to produce that sense of perspective and, also, add to the mood of disappearing into infinity.
Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

Hello John,
You're capturing well this this canal and surrounding nature by a good angle and excellent tone/clarity, so it's impressive to see the misty canal of early morning and the row of trees standing on both side of canal. It draws out a mysterious atmosphere. It's arranged for a small ship who is at anchor to the canal. And, the reflection projected to the canal gives special good effect in this image.
Have a nice day.

Hello John,
a lovely view, smooth and mysterious as the first daylight finds the canal covered with thick fog. I like very much the deep view through the fog, the superb long perspective, the dim colours, the rows of elegant trees on either side of the canal, the mystical and mesmerizing reflections. The brightness and clarity of the boat anchors and vivifies the wonderful, grey, calm atmosphere. The dim light is managed excellently. Well done and thank you!
All the best,

Hello John
Most drivers hate fog while photographers benefit of the romantic zest it adds to a picture.
I imagine the british royal yatch slowly sailing on this canal for Queen Elizabet's current celebrations!
Much-appealing spring tableau!
Cheers.

Hello John,
You don't need blue sky or beautiful sunset to make a good photo, that take lot of skill, even on a foggy day like this you captured such wonderful image. I love the misty atmosphere, beuatiful reflection of the row of trees in the peaceful and cold morning.
So pure and so natural.

I know you don't like B&W images John, but with the mist and the solitary boat on the canal I think this lends itself to a perfect montone shot. Having said that it is a lovely shot as it is, a wonderful moody atmosphere my friend.

ciao John,
la foschia che avvolge la scena regala una magica atmosfera alla composizione.
Perfetto inserimento dell'imbarcazione a margine,
saluti

Hello John,
I like the melancholic mood of this image a lot, and the moody colors are also very fascinating. The photographer’s perspective is excellent. But most of all I like the wonderful reflections and the little boat which is an important part of the composition. My compliments!
Warm regards
Harriet

Hello, John!
Misty pictures always attract my attention. They create an atmosphere of mystery and uncertainty, and set up a philosophical mood. This picture beautifully conveys the atmosphere of the gathering fog, and bright colors of boat highlight misty perspective. An additional charm to the whole picture gives the reflection disappears in the fog.
Good luck.

Dag John,
Was dit een voorbode voor wat in de zomer komen zou ?
De foto is zeker geslaagd natuurlijk. Ochtendmist die optrekt, heeft zijn charme. Maar wanneer het triestige weer aanhoudt, wordt het wel erg.
Je hoeft blijkbaar niet veel licht te hebben om toch prachtige weerspiegelingen te tonen.
De uiterst rustige sfeer wordt excellent weergegeven met een vraagteken voor wat er zich verder na de bocht bevindt.
Vele groeten, Paul

This photo is so beautiful with the fog hanging around this canal, showing superb clarity, colors and light management. Reflections off the water is eye popping, so gorgeously presented, great POV John!!

Hi John
Thought I had posted a comment on this photograph before, but it seems to have got lost.
You have captured a timelss moment, full of muted colour and soft focus. The framing and off-centre perspective are perfect, while the brighter reds & white of the boat in the left foreground offer a counterpoint to the overall effect. In addition, your accompanying notes offer a fascinating history of this part of the world. Thankyou
Regards
Neil Lewis

Hello John
A new found in your treasure box.
The mist over the canal is very appealing to me, and I feel a desire to sit in the boat, start the engine and sail into the fog banks. The mood is wonderful and the true, douce colors are a pleasure looking at... it's almost like medicine :)
thank you John. Cheers and have a fine day
Frank
