Commuting by TR7

Yesterday turned out to be a really nice autumn day. And since it was my midweek morning off from work, I decided to take a little more time to get to the office. Taking ‘t Kreng on a local detour in an attempt to find a few nice photo locations. The outward journey was a very pleasant experience, despite the fact that the planned photo locations were somewhat disappointing. Many trees had already lost all their leaves. Fortunately, not all!

The estate surrounding Hillenraad Castle in Boukoul.

The treelined Hillenraederlaan running along the front of Hillenraad Castle, Boukoul.

Next came the always time consuming business of work. And I again forgot the time. So by the time I left the office it was already starting to get dark. Not good if you want to photograph a car against a background of autumn colours But I needn’t have worried!

Along the meandering Swalm river between Hasselt and Swalmen.

Sunset seen from St. Antoniusstraat in Beesel,
with the corn mill "De Grauwe Beer" in the background.

‘t Kreng catching the last rays of sunlight on top of
one of the viaducts across the A73 motorway in Belfeld.



A glorious sunset seen from the Korteweg in Belfeld,
and also the last photos of this commute. After this the sunlight went out.
