Walking around Damme middle of the church tower

The presence of, among other things, "marsh fern" and the carnivorous water plant "ordinary vesicle" prove the botanical value of the area. The area is managed by vzw Natuurpunt, which buys a few adjacent fields and meadows in order to be able to close the old defense belt around Damme again. The financing is done through the European project "Euregio Scheldemond / Cross-Border Creeks Area", with the support of the Provincial Nature Fund of West Flanders, the city of Damme and the Ministry of the Flemish Community. This nature reserve is accessed via a pedestrian bridge over the Zuidervaartje that connects to a municipal walking path that connects the Damse Vaart-Zuid with the Kerkstraat and the city center.

I hope that you enjoy it

Hi John,

The length of the field is givng depth to the cmposition. The point of view is showing the details of the houses and of the church. The light is making the colours to stand out. Have a nice day.

Hello John, a scene so typical of your part of the world, you give us a feeling of space and big skies.
Lovely shadows across the pastures, the red roofs of the buildings, and a church to complete the picture.
Thanks for sharing, regards Jean.

Hello John,

Another beautiful photograph from Belgium,
The light is delightful, especially for winter.
You have taken a good viewpoint so that the church and the attractive houses can be included in the same photograph, neatly linked by the long shadows across the field.

My warm regards,
Bev 😊

Bonjour, cher ami John,
il suffit de s'éloigner un peu de la ville pour rencontrer des trésors architecturaux de ce genre.
J'aime les deux édifices religieux, l'un grandiose, l'autre plus modeste adapté au village de proximité.
Toujours de superbes prises de vue.
Amitiés.
Philippe

jemaflor (135404) 2019-01-08 23:21

Salut John,
Une jolie vue avec cette teinte et ces rayons de soleil qui valorisent l'ensemble, bien composée avec ces constructions de chaque côté de la photo, bonne netteté.

Hello John,
Another excellent photo with very good light management and beautiful colours. The light clouds are balanced by the green fields, while the central area is filled with nice buildings and trees in an attractive panorama. It is as always a first class photo.
Kind regards,
Gert

snunney (130967) 2019-01-09 1:22

Hello John,
Fine perspective on this attractive village with at least two churches that I can see. I like the contrasts in light between the two halves of the image and that lovely sky. Fine light management with excelelnt colours and sharpness.

Klassiek zicht op Damme, John, maar het blijft mooi.
Prachtig gebied om te gaan wandelen.

Hi John,

The red roof of the building at right contrasts superbly with the blue sky. Good sharpness and well framed and composed. Good texture in the grass and nice reflections in the 2 small lakes. Tfs!

Hallo John,
Een mooi landschap en gezicht op het stadje. De gebouwen zijn mooi verdeeld over de foto met de kerk links en de huizen met de oranje daken rechts. Die laatste worden bovendien mooi verlicht door het warme zonlicht. De blauwe lucht en het groene gras zorgen voor een mooie omlijsting van het plaatsje.

Hallo John, this village contains a beautiful church and residential houses. It is surrounded by pastures, i see a little pond on the left. Fine colors, good sharpness, interesting photo note, regards.
