Sint Amandsstraat Brugge.
Cobbled street, halfway widening into a square
Wide houses of three to four story’s
Anchored bricks, white painted table facades with stepped top from XVII-XVIII century.
Plastered and painted table facades from XVIII century, as eye-catching property, the location in the curve with changes in 1946 to add ground wooden gate.
This way each house has its own characteristic and personal style.
But the Halle tower in the middle is always the anchor point in the Bruges city center
I hope you can enjoy.

Hallo John,
Oud en vernieuwd, hier dicht bij elkaar.
De toren van het belfort is een goed herkenningspunt voor de bezoekers om te weten waar het centrum is.
Op foto's is het ook steeds mooi wanneer hij boven de daken uitrijst.
Het is nog een beeld uit de koude dagen eerder deze maand.
Weer of geen weer, Brugge heeft steeds bezoekers.
Een prachtig helder beeld met de nodige scherpte.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hello John,
A lively street scene with some attractive architecture and the lovely bell tower that makes an excellent focal point for the viewer. Agreeable soft lights and colours and lots of beautiful textural detail to be observed in the cobblestones and the background brickwork. Thanks for sharing, have a pleasant Sunday afternoon.

Hello John,
A pleasant view of the cobbled street and the church tower in the background. The house att the end of the street has a number of red details which brighten the view on this relatively dull day. The many persons in the street make the photo lively. It's a generally nice view of architecture and daily life. The photo is well exposed and the sharpness is perfect.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hello John,
I can see that the weather is still cold in Belgium, just from the attire of the people enjoying the stroll down the cobbled street.
It's a well composed photograph, including the people as well as the attractive buildings, all situated within the confines of the converging lines of the street and guiding effectively to the warm terracotta building with further details of the Halle Tower as a back-marker.
The colours are very natural in a photograph with a fine dof.
Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

Hello John
The bg clock-tower provides a strong focal point. Good sharpness and perspective. The red window frames and roofs contrast nicely with the patch of blue sky. Tfs!

Bonjour, cher ami John,
L'on sent que le printemps est arrivé et que les gens ont besoin de retrouver l'extérieur, voir les petites fleurs et revoir la nature sous un autre angle.
Une fois encore, la rue bordée de vieux et respectables immeubles et édifice donne à l'ensemble un cachet incomparable.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Some interesting styles of building, everything looks neat and tidy.

Hallo John, i like street views like this one. The buildings consist in a mix of old and modern architectural styles. The passersby walking in the cobbled street animate the scene. They wear winter clothes. The clock tower in the bg dominates the surroundings by its height. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.
