Another photo of this superb sunrise, but now without the cows (they weren't on the edge of the meadow yet then).
Some of you might notice I forgot my watermark in the bottom right corner. I did this on purpose, to test if the magic donkey called Explore is excluding watermarked photos, as the rumours say. The photo from yesterday, Scene in the Krimpenerwaard, was posted in only 6 groups (no award-begging groups), did had only 8 tags ánd a watermark, but did not reach Explore (not even the bottom 100 or so). I had 512 views in a day, 93 favorites in a day, 72 comments in one day and was added to one gallery, without hitting the Explore pages. Also in the first hour after posting I had already received 20 favorites and 15 comments, but the magic donkey did not notice it. Perhaps due to the watermark? I will find it out in the short future: I post some photos without watermark and see if those will reach it. Of course, this one isn't as good as yesterday, so if this one will reach it, I now enough. It know it is only Explore, but sometimes it is nice to reach new people, who usually do not visit my page. Explore is an excellent way to do this. If anyone of you have identical or other thoughts about Explore, please share them with me!
Despite my complaints about Explore I want to thank you all for the lovely comments on the photo from yesterday, some remarks were really touching ("vakwerk", "adembenemend", "droomplaat" etc.) to read. Of course that's more valuable to me than Explore!

Broad verges backed by banks,
Of mature Oak and Beech,
Race down Warwickshire,
Through the verdure of the country,
Stratford upon Avon and Shakespear,
The breathtaking castles of Kenilworth and Warwick,
Or and hour, quiet and peaceful, at the Bancroft Basin,
Live forever as the Chesterton Windmill turns the time.
Last week a lot of windmills in Holland were illuminated by lights, so I took the opportunity to photograph one of them during blue hour.....
This windmill is a part of the ensemble of authentic windmills which is the centrepiece of a 1.5 square kilometres (0.58 sq mi) open air Museum of Folk Architecture and Life of Ukraine. This outdoor museum is located on the southern outskirts of the Ukrainian capital city.
The Kinderdijk windmills are part of the UNESCO World Heritage .

Had a few days staying between Great Yarmouth and Lowestoft, weather was kind to us :-)
I didn't take a lot of photo's so I won't be posting many at a time... Under pressure from one of my contacts I went out after tea and visited this old windmill which wasn't too far away.. the sun wasn't quite setting but shooting into it's direction gave an interesting effect. I found it hard to get a shot with a reflection in, the mill being no longer used meant most of the water near it was overgrown with reeds.
By making this picture with a very low POV, it seemed like that the windmill tried to reach out for the sky.
Today I traveled with a good friend of mine to enjoy the swedish landscape, sun and food ! After short discusion we decided to visit Lacko Castle. Almost 2,5 hours driving from the norwegian borders. We did off course use longer time because of many nice motives in our way. This is one of them. Have a nice day friends !
The glorious Chesterton Windmill in South Warwickshire set against a field of Rapeseed and a lovely fluffy cloud formation.
Everyone's favourite Windmill at Chesterton in Warwickshire. Probably built by Sir Edward Peyto in around 1632. John Stone, a pupil of Inigo Jones, was in Chesterton around this time and probably helped build it. It was thought that this was built as an observatory but local records prove that it has always been used as a windmill.
Over Windmill in Cambridgeshire.The building was derelict in 1950. It was purchased in 1960 for £100 by Graham Chris Wilson, who fitted a pair of patent sails and a pair of stones from the derelict mill at Upwell, enabling the mill to work again in October 1969. It has been restored since and is worked by its owner, who also rebuilt the cap, the brake-wheel and most of the internal timberwork. It is now operated with two double shuttered and two single shuttered patent clockwise sails with leading boards.
