Kieskring 4 (Zwolle)

My hometown always offers nice views. Here you see Deventer at sunset on the river IJssel.

The bridge in my hometown from a different angle. The Wilhelmina Bridge crooses the IJssel River towards a beautiful sunset. I hope we can all cross a bridge from 2021 to a beautiful and colourful 2022. May the New Year bring happiness, health, and colour to all of you.

Taken a few weeks back during our one week of winter and snow. The bridge crosses the IJssel river.

Blokzijl is a small picturesque town with a large harbour. In former days, before the closing of the Zuiderzee and the creation of the polders, it was a major trading port, especially for peat. Today it is almost landlocked, but a waterway still connects to the IJsselmeer for pleasure boats. It is a major tourist destination in that area.

A picturesque corner of one of the most tourist liked streets in my hometown. The Walstraat (Wall Street) is famous for the annual Dickens festivity in December In summer visitors enjoy the flowers and the unique shops in this old part of the city. A panorama of 2 horizontal photos.
