Comment from Shadow catcher
Really beautiful, i love the reflections that you were able to capture too! This image would have been great for the reflection contest, as well as the man impacted landscape. The colors of the windmills really stand out against the gray sky and water. I would love to photograph these, so I'm really happy that you were able to and therefore share this great image with the rest of us!

Hi Brian, I'm so glad they decided to preserve these windmills. I know I'd be thrilled to see them! Love the sharpness of the image. We really get to enjoy the view of these windmills. The only thing I would have done different in this shot is crop around the first 3 or 4 windmills and eliminated the space on the left. If you did that you'd really get a nice close-up of them. I still like what you captured though. You have to go with what you like! Good Luck in the Contest! :o) Nancy

I very much like the composition here, with the inclusion of the land bottom right to give perspective. The focus is sharp, capturing a lot of great detail. It's a different and original image that is enjoyable to view.

A beautiful picture of the Windmills at Zaanse Schans with their reflections along with the blue/grey sky on the water's glistening surface. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Comment from Kitandroo
I adore this capture, it is so simplistic and has a calm relaxing feel to it.
The windmills among bodies of water is quite striking.
Thank you for showing us such a magnificent piece.

Comment from Charlotte Morse
Brian, I love this shot, it's so unusual - well, perhaps not that unusual to the locals! Lol
Lovely composition, leaving that small piece of grass in on the right works very well.
The exposure is good, the reflections are lovely and the narrow crop brings it all together.
Well focused with excellent dof. A lovely shot overall.
Very best of luck in the contest.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
This well-composed shot not only showcases the beauty of the Dutch countryside but also serves as a poetic commentary on the harmonious coexistence of tradition and modernity. The age-old windmills stand as a testament to Holland's rich history.
Lovely shot. Thanks for sharing!
