Last Friday I visited the beautiful lighthouse of Hellevoetsluis, with Wim Boon. It was a bit busy, but we did had a lot of fun:) I also tested out my new magnetic filter system of Kase, and I think it is working great. So also some long exposures are coming!
Thanks for having a look! All faves and comments are highly appreciated!
A visitor from the northern part of our country wanted to visit our lighthouse! Not a problem at all, I have been here numerous times but with a sky like this I never get bored with this view.

it is not to be missed from the water, the Hellevoetse lighthouse. The lighthouse was built in 1822 and is one of the older, still functioning lighthouses in the Netherlands. The tower was built to a design by naval architect J. Valk. In 1933 the tower got electric light, before that it had gas incandescent light. After many renovations and slight changes, the tower will be reopened in 2005 after a thorough restoration. The tower has a fixed optic, the height is 18 meters, the diameter is 3.30 meters and the light height is 17 meters. When the Lighthouse is open for viewing, you have a magnificent view over the Haringvliet and the harbor of Hellevoetsluis.
Harbor in color, While being away for work, some spare time. a small harbor in The Netherlands, with color buildings and a nice ship in front. :)

A view on the barracks of the 19th Century Fort Haerlem, Hellevoetsluis, South-Holland.
Hellevoetsluis translates as "lock at the foot of the Helle".
Thanks to its strategic situation the town grew from the beginning of the 17th century to be the homeport for the Dutch war fleet. In later years the port was fortified more and more and Hellevoetsluis therefore became a unique combination of fortified town and naval port. The Admirals Maarten Tromp, Michiel de Ruyter and Piet Heyn had their home base here and in 1688 during the Glorious Revolution William III of Orange's invasion fleet departed from the port.

Yes, I have already uploaded a similar picture (flic.kr/p/2ecYngM), but this scenery is worth another one, I think.
No, I have not moved to NL permanently, would need a sponsor ;-) Next upload will be from Germany, probably...
A Lighthouse in Hellevoetsluis, Old Festung around Rotterdam, for the defence of Rotterdam few years ago.
While being on the otherside of the Netherlands for work, we have some spare time in the evening, to discover the area at the evening. Some awesome places are here to discover next! So keep me on follow, and be suprised what will be next on the photo. :)

The Lighthouse in Hellevoetsluis is celebrating her 200th anniversary. The sky really helped to make it a really special celebration!

While biking from work to home, I saw this beautiful fog. Further on I came in this fog and the temperature dropped from 12 to 4 degrees. I wasn't prepared for that with my shorts and no gloves. Still more than half an hour in that cold until home. brrrrr
