Photography -Enkhuizen - Holland: Windows2006

Photos of Enkhuizen, a 650 year old town in The Netherlands.

The Wilhelmina plantsoen was opend by and named after queen Wilhelmina in 1936. Plantsoen is Dutch for park.

The Venedie has several restaurants with terrace.

In the winter this area is used for ice skating.

The Kaasmarkt offers a few bars and discos.

To protect the city against the often violent sea and enemy invasion two walls were built in the 16th and 17th century. Called "The Sea wall" and "the Vesting wall".

The Enkhuizerzand is the beach in Enkhuizen, a nice view on the boats and the IJsselmeer.

The dijk is best described as the promenade of Enkhuizen.

The Zuiderhavendijk is one of the first harbours in the Netherlands. Most of Amsterdam was based on this design.

I don't mean this in a bad way, of course! Ethical concerns aside... I just hope that as memory becomes cheaper, the possibility of copying our brains onto a digital medium becomes a true reality. It's one of the things I really wish I could see in my lifetime.

I really like the picture of the path through the trees. The green in that picture is just so beautiful.; Tuesday, June 07, 2005 5:17:00 AM

The mayor of Enkhuizen, the people there, and everyone in your country should thank you for all you've done ! The photos are as usual magnificent, you have real talent.

In an aside, I need your help putting a document into the Web -- I've sent you a Yahoo! 360 message.

Thanks in advance!; Saturday, May 21, 2005 9:24:00 AM
