From the Vaults-69
The lonely road or the path less taken is usually where I head in most situations there are enough lemmings in the world to take up my slack of non-conformity and I am comfortable being on the outside looking in as an individual, that being said I have no problem falling in line where needed societally when it make sense.
Kinderdijk after the park closes becomes this hauntingly beautiful landscape photographers dream and if you are lucky enough you are rewarded with magnificent skies to go with the scenery if you are not you will have to create what you need.
In the 13th century the locals in this low lying area tried to make a go of it between two rivers, coming from a flood plain area in my home province I know that these areas are sometimes the most fertile due to the flood waters depositing nutrient rich silt onto the crop land but you need a strategy to keep yourself dry.
The locals flood strategy was to create a series of dikes, channels and sluices to protect their houses but still flood the farmlands with fertilizer and this sufficed until the 18th century when the earth works were failing rather than rebuild the labor intensive dike system new technology was applied, the windmill, thus Kinderdijk the park was born
I took this on Sept 17th, 2017 with my D750 and Nikon 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 28mm 1/5 sec f/14 ISO100 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz , Luminar and DXO
