Fourth picture of another mill, I took this image out of another side, with nice autumn colours.

Windmill 鉄int-Janshuismolen�

The Sint-Janshuis Mill in the Belgian city of Bruges is located on Kruisvest, on the edge of the city center. The windmill that stands today was built in 1770 and functions as a flour mill. It is already the third mill on that site. It owes its name to the hospital of St. John.
I hope you like it

Hello John,
The weather was far from perfect, but it is a very good composition. The windmill is well placed at the end of the two diagonal rows of trees, those to the left mainly yellow and those to the right still mainly green. There is a patch of blue sky behind the windmill which makes it seem to rise from the background. The yellow benches and table are good focal points that help to accentuate the depth of the photo. The colours are very good, despite the rather bad light.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hallo John,
Vanuit dit standpunt herinner ik me de molen niet. Misschien moet ik meer van het pad afdwalen ?
Het weer zag er eerder guur uit. Geen andere bezoekers te zien met uitzondering van iemand die de hond moet uitlaten.
Mooie compositie en presentatie.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hi John,

The length of the park is giving depth to the composition. The point of view is showing the details of the windmill and of the trees. There is a good contrast between the colors of the picture. Have a nice day.

Hallo John,
Een mooi gezicht op deze molen die duidelijk te zien is dankzij het heuveltje en de rijen bomen aan beide zijden met nog verschillende herfstkleuren.

A fine perspective found here, John, placed the windmill between the two nroes of trees which made a leading lines towards the elevated mound where the mill built.
Have a nice new week,
Ike

Hi John,
nice capture of this famous windmill. I didn't manage to visit it having limited time in Bruges.

The weather was quite difficult on the day you took this photo but nevertheless it is sometimes a satisfaction to be able to share a freshly taken photo and also to undertake a challenge of difficult conditions.
The mood you achieved is very realistic. Great composition with tree aligned on both sides.
Very well seen and captured,
M

ChrisJ (171822) 2020-12-27 20:55

Hello John,

A pleasant diffused light with natural looking colour and good sharpness. The dual rows of trees provide excellent linear perspective and guide the eye towards the windmill located at the vanishing point. Tfs!

Royaldevon (85932) 2020-12-28 4:31

Hello John,

Thank you for your good wishes.
I hope you and your wife are having a lovely Christmas week.

This is a beautifully composed photograph, where the two lines of trees create a long perspective, focussing our attention on the b/g windmill!
The picnic table does assist in creating a good sense of depth.
The light was, perhaps, not in your favour yet the colours are true and the details sharp.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Dag John,
Het eerste dat mij opviel aan deze prachtige foto was het bijzondere licht dat door het opvallend gekleurde wolkendek op het landschap viel. Maar natuurlijk viel mijn oog snel op de prachtig in de compositie geplaatste standerdmolen.
Weer een waar meesterwerk.
Groet Rob

Nice, a real autumn scene

Hi John
A well captured image, love everything about it even though it looks so moody and greyish. I like the bits of punchy autumnal colour with main focus is on the windmill. Great framing and excellent perspective.
Best regards
