I never get tired of looking at pics like that.

True, but you need some dynamite to get the power lines out of the way! Speaking totally hypothetically of course.

Photoshop can do the trick...

Good shot Marcel!

Well, I usually find out that having an object in a landscape picture makes it better. So the powerlines serve a purpose.

And provide the power to re-charge the camera batteries !
Nice one Marcel.

Oh I quite agree! Was just poking fun. Years ago my wife and I took a community based photography course and a point they made was to to include features like that because it added a sense of "place" and also helped adjust the viewers sense of scale. Myself I can't take a good picture if my life depended on it! I do not seem to have the knack for composition and so forth. My wife on the other hand takes some fantastic pictures! I am very much enjoying yours.

Went to Rotterdam with my youngest son Kiran and visited the grand old lady S.S. Rotterdam.
This is the biggest ocean liner ever build in The Netherlands (still only about 2/3 of the Titanic) and sailed from Rotterdam to New York in service of the Holland-America line. Since 2010 she is permanently stationed in The harbour in Rotterdam and open for public.

I'd wondered where my old private yacht had ended up ......................

That one hit an iceberg somewhere near Canada.

Nah, that was some other bloke's boat - I may be getting old, but I'm not that bl**dy old !!
Actually, I think Jan was one of the survivor's of that incident .............

Found her Terry:
Regal Princess, in the Rotterdam harbor, not far from the S.S. Rotterdam. About 4 times bigger than the S.S. Rotterdam, but not half the beauty in my opinion.
