The final picture from this serie around the drawbridge nearby Oene was taken from some distance.
This showed the ditch that runs to the 'Grift' (a small waterway that runs parallel to the channel ).
This 'Grift' is even older than the channel itself and was dug out in the 14th century to de-water the land it flow trough.
(hence this ditch)



When seeing it in my screen I thought it would make a nice subject for a pano since it would appear as a dark line that was running in some kind of a circle (in reality it is more straight)
I thought it would make for a nice composition with the other elements in the frame

Very nice buddy that is a great pano.  Thanks for the history as well.  My only question to you my friend is where is the train?

Thanks a lot.
I wish we still had a train around here.
Some 'wise' people closed the line in 1973....

Lol, this was a Small Joke, Monti, I can't watch you getting let down, as they removed the railway and there are no trains !

So I had to step in, to try to make you Happy !

Really beautiful shot, thank you very much!
