Bruges
Saturday afternoon in Bruges.
Exceptional that there are so little visitors in the city center.
Normally a place where many people come together.
For many the departure point to visit the city.
Everyone can see that almost all the carriages are standing still and waiting for the public.
This at the height of the afternoon.
Many restaurants were also closed due to leave.
This was a unique moment to photograph all carriages and horses
I hope you like it.

Hello John,
A bad day for tourist business but a good day for photography. Wonderful clear and bright weather and lots of horse-carriages assembled in front of the large building. You managed a good exposure and fantastic sharpness, just as always.
Kind regards,

Hallo John, the horse carriages are waiting for the tourists in front of this splendid monument located in Bruges market. It is their departure for the excursion through the city streets. The people in the fg animate the scene, some of them pose near the animals. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.

Hi John
Have the number of carriages increased in recent years? I don't seem to remember so many in 2009. A good busy Bruges view.

Hi John
Irresistible spot as famous as the canals with lots of history, highlighting the iconic buildings and the market square. A very handsome shot John! I like how you've done a sweep of the square around with those carriages - they seem to suit the architecture and historical look of the landmark. So photogenic, I like the colours, shapes in the roofs and this was obviously a good weather day. And very interesting info you provided too. Congrats
Best regards

Hello John,
The distinctive French style of architecture is evident here. Good sharpness and the rust red facade at right adds a nice warm cold color contrast with the blue sky. The horses and carriages add focal points. Tfs!

Dit is een uniek Brugs stil moment John, de winter is een dalperiode...Maar zoals u zegt, het heeft visueel zeker voordelen. De karakterstieke paard-en-wagens staan er moi op (ook door het fijne licht). Groeten uit Rotterdam, Bert.

Hello John,
I think I told you previously that I had a ride in one of these carriages and found it an interesting way to get an overview of the city.
It is a surprise to see so many of them standing idle but it was perfect for you, to gain an opportunity to use them in your photograph.
Your photograph has lots of interesting points, the tourists, the flags and the beautiful building, as well as the carriages. You did an excellent job of placing the building so nicely symmetrical in the b/g.
My warm regards,
Bev :-)

Hi John,
I recognize this place. I have showed three photos from this square and yet this again shows a different angle.
Very impressive spot, also people wearing thick clothes indicate quite a different atmosphere in comparison to how I remember this place, it was very hot when I was there last year.
Very good side light subtly touching the facades.
Excellent work,
M
