Description
This is the Afsluitdijk (closing dike) in The Netherlands which seperates the IJsselmeer (IJssel-lake) from the Waddenzee (Wadden-sea). A very innovative project in a water-rich country.Related content

Really neat perspective! I have never heard of such a separation between both lake and sea. I really like how everything comes together in this photo - the clouds, the roads, the water - as if they were converging into the distance.

Thanks! It's kind of a unique project in The Netherlands to seperate a sea from a lake to create and protect dry land. Meanwhile this dike is provided with roads for a brilliant shortcut through Holland! And such roads in such an environment are always very fit to create photo's with a good perspective...

Wow, how did you take this were you on some kind of glider? Or did you climb a ladder? hehe

No mate, a small pedestrian bridge over the road. Nice spot by the way, seperates a sea from a lake, just look at the difference in water level on either sides...
