Hubert Posted January 4, 2011 Report Posted January 4, 2011 Due to the persistent rain in obtober 2010, Flanders suffered a lot from flooding.Especially the river Dender received a much greater volume of water it could handle at one time.The water overflowed the riverbanks into the floodplain.Once the rain stopped pouring and the water started to retreat, I went on a bike ride along the towpath and took some images.So this is a short impression (my first attempt with PTE).download hereSlideshow characteristics: 4m09s; 45 slides; 29.7Mb; 1920x1275 Constructive criticism is always welcomeHubert Quote
rick235 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Posted January 4, 2011 Hi Hubert,Very good images especially the black and white images that worked really well, after looking at your images i begin to understand all the mud in WW1 around Flanders.Thank youRick Quote

I like it very much. The haunting music matched the images.If I were to be very very picky, I would suggest that the couple of zoom-outs be a tad slower and use the "smooth" setting. Other than that, I thought it was great.Thanks...GaryP.S. Oh,yea...add an " ' " to "cant" in the intro. Font is a little hard to read. Quote
Hubert Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Posted January 5, 2011 Thanks guys for downloading and your comments.Rick, WW1 is almost a century ago and there is much more than mud to identify Flanders Fields.Just think about our beautiful cities Bruge and Ghent and a few others.Ever attended the famous bike race 'Tour of Flanders' ? Etc., etc ...But I understand what you mean.Gary, I'll keep your suggestions in mind,thanks. Quote
trailertrash Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Thats a lot of water. Nice images, liked the transitions and the music. All things considered, very pleasing indeed.Andrew Quote
coopernatural Posted January 6, 2011 Report Posted January 6, 2011 Hubert,I liked this.I was thinking if I had been there with a camera I would have missedwhat you captured.The treatment to some images won't suit some folks,but I do like the perspectiveand think it added to your show.Well done and look forward to more from you.Davy Quote
Hubert Posted January 8, 2011 Author Report Posted January 8, 2011 Andrew, Davy and all other members/downloaders.Lots of water indeed.Earlier this week it started to rain again seriously and that combined with the rapid thaw last week (we also had some serious snowfall) gives again flooding but more particularly in the French speaking part of the country.Thanks for your comment.Special thank to Maureen (private mail)Hubert Quote
