Sunny day in Bruges, a photo from West-Vlaanderen, Flanders

Photographer's Note

If you don't use beta-TrekEarth please CLICK HERE to see a larger and sharper original version of this image.

This is a tower, which you have certainly seen many times but you may not even realize that. It is usually included as a part of a larger panoramic view of the famous Rozenhoedkaai. CLICK HERE to see it in a wider context in one of John's photos. I am not sure what the red brick building hosts, but the white one I identified as a hotel and restaurant called Duc De Bourgogne. I was truly blessed with weather on my trip to Bruges. I suppose many buildings, which normally stay unnoticed in a great light become eye catching. This photo was taken from a boat trip around Bruges canals.

Hello Mariusz,
A beautiful view from Bruges with a nice mix of architecture. The white façade makes a good combination with the brick architecture. The tower attracts most attention, but there are several other fine details, like the red flowers and the reflections in the water.

Hi Mariusz,very lucky sunny days as you wrote in the note,so the best situation to take bright pics like that. In effect isn't the first time for this tower on TE,but it's nice to have this view taken in this wonderful quality,i like the sharpness and the perfect exposure of white of facades on the left. Have a nice day and thanks,Luciano

Czesc Mariusz!
Kolejny fajny fragment Brugii.
Z kanalu to wszystko inaczej wyglada.
Faktycznie pogode miales superowa.
Ten ceglany budynek z wieza robi wrazenie, wyglada na opuszczony?
Dobry kadr, swiatlo i ostrosc.
Lubie to.
Milego dnia.
Pozdrawiam.
Krzysztof

Bruges is mostly about canals and its architecture, Mariusz, which you got them both in this one.
Neat and elegant buildings above water, the towrer is first object to notice when looking at this.
Good afternoon,
Ike

Bonjour Mariusz,

Une trčs jolie composition d'une bien jolie vide. Un beau point de vue ŕ partir de l'eau pour nous faire découvrir de bien beaux bâtiments sous une lumičre parfaite.

Amicalement

I liked the blue skies while travelling, but sometimes the fog or a darker clouds add a special mood too.problem with sunny days is the parts in shady. a nice view of these typical buildings of this town. an excellent quality of image.

take care

Pozdrav.
Lep pogled, interesantan i dobar tekst ...
Lepe fasade i detalji, lepa stara arhitektura, na obali kanala.
Lep deo grada i zgrade vidjene sa broda.
Lepo pokazano.
Zelim vam sve najbolje.

Nice view, interesting and good text ...
Beautiful facades and details, beautiful old architecture, on the banks of the canal.

Ciekawa perspektywa z poziomu wodu, ale prawdopodobnie jest czesty sposob zwiedzania tego miasta - tak przynajmniej wynika z licznych fotografii ze stateczkami na kanalach w tym miescie.
Dobry kadr, pogoda faktycznie dopisyla i mozna bylo osiagnac dobra , nasycona kolorystyke.
Ciekawa prezentacja
pozdrawiam
Piotr

Mariusz, a boat trip on Bruges canals allows to discover the city from unique angles. That brick tower built along the water sticks out from the other buildings, it is clearly centuries years old. Fine colors, good image quality and excellent light, instructive photo note, regards.

Hello

Bravo et amitié

Bonjour, cher Mariusz,
une mise en image parfaite valorisant ce patrimoine architectural fabuleux.
Une réussite !
Amitiés.

Hello Mariusz
You were certainly lucky with the weather during your visit to Flanders because the last month it only rained after some scarce clearances.
Brave to post a photo from the city that John has shown us so extensive and good, but I didn't want to miss this beautiful photo.
Well done
Have a nice day, groet Rob

Brugia moze rzeczywiscie zauroczyc :), a zdjecia przy takiej pogodzie wychodza jak marzenie
pozdrawiam Ryszard

PaulVDV (62810) 2019-10-17 12:34

Hello Mariusz,
These are indeed buildings that you do not often see photographed separately. They're usually part of a wider view such as the photo of John you refer to.
It's always interesting to hear what someone who comes to Bruges for the first time likes about the city and what kind of pictures such a visitor takes.
From the boat you managed to take a sharp photo.
Best regards, Paul

Ciao Mariusz

This shot is comparable to Venice in Italy and makes it clear why Bruges is sometimes called the Venice of the North. Good sharpness, colour and saturation. Tfs!

mcmtanyel (67819) 2019-10-21 21:04

Hello Mariusz,
With that much sun, you could have told me this was Venice and I would have believed you! 👍🏻👍🏻

Hi Mariusz.
Where to look in Bruges that does not ask us for an image, everything is worthy to capture a good photo, as is the case in which you show us, ideal the contrast of the two buildings so different but that give an ideal composition, the brick tower It is the soul of the whole.
An image to enjoy, with its beautiful color, great luminosity and perfect sharpness.
Superbly captured. I love.
Happy start of the week.
Very best regards.
Luis.
